GRAVEYARD

Notice of an itinerary change—

Well, shucks! You died. This might be a familiar experience for you, maybe not. Either way, you're probably feeling distinctly less dead now, with any injuries you previously obtained now healed. Grogginess still clouds your mind, but in a way that's reminiscent of waking up rather than anything nefarious.

... Not too unlike when you first arrived here, actually. Namely, because you wake up in what looks to be an airport terminal. Again! It's not quite the same as the one you were in before, but you're not free of airports yet, it seems. To be specific, you're in the baggage claim area, in the most literal sense: lying in an open suitcase on the carousel, going round and around (or, if you were unlucky, you might've tumbled out of the suitcase as it slid down onto the conveyor belt). You might want to hop off at some point.

If you're worried about your belongings, you can find them either on your person or in another suitcase chugging along on the belt. Once you retrieve everything, there's a new area to explore. Plus, reunions to be had with those who died before you, or with the four Hosts you haven't seen since the first week. And should you be worried about the living side, there are various screens around the terminal, allowing you to still watch what's going on over there.

► GRAVEYARD RUNDOWN

You are able to see the living (and their public network posts).
Weekly effects are still active.
Any personal items you didn't give away before your death are with you in the graveyard.
You can still use your curse items on the living, with the usual caveats of avoiding OOC inconvenience (e.g. no effects that would last into Thursday night).
The graveyard has its own set of NPCs (Maestro, Bora, Libeccio, Scirocco). You are no longer able to contact the living side's NPCs via audiences, but you can talk to the other four once again.
If you get injured and would like to be healed (within reason), the graveyard NPCs can heal to varying degrees, so feel free to handwave tapping them until you got one who could help you.
You may handwave the NPCs explaining the basics to you: you're alive again, but you're unable to regroup with the "living" side due to lacking a mode of transportation to the airport terminal where they are, and a barrier is blocking people from leaving the old-fashioned way. Trying to book a ride is a work in progress for the entire graveyard.

So you're royalty then? Or just rubbing elbows with them?

Den Thelyss is one of the top three within the Dynasty. I had been appointed the Bright Queen's Shadowhand.

[ 'dynasty'..... this is such rich people behavior. ]

'Den'?

[🥺]

It is what we call our
families? Clans?

I'll take you word for it. Not even sure what we call ours back home. Lineages?

You do give off a very distinguished air though, so I'd say whatever it is you're doing is working.

[If you keep complimenting men, they will fall in love with you, Wriothesley.]

Thank you. I try despite the playful ridicule I have been receiving for it. Wouldn't be the first time.

[ IT'S CALLED BEING NICE? what the hell ]

I'd take it as a good thing. It means everyone's comfortable enough around you to joke around.

Unless you'd rather we not?

[Suitors are lining up as we speak.]

It's fine. As I said, it wouldn't be the first time. If not here, when I return home, it would begin anew.

You all at least do not use every single word of a Sending spell for no reason other than to get on my nerves.

[ looks around at the empty room. okay anna. ]

Could just be that none of us know how to cast one of these Sending spells.

Hey, mind if I ask you a question?

That's a shame, but great for me.

You are a man of many questions. Go ahead.

How else will I get to know someone if not by asking? Many of the most interesting stories I've heard have come from people and not books.

[ however, this is not one of those questions. sorry. ]

Would you ever consider getting a nipple piercing?

What makes you think I do not have one already?

[ damn, essek IS a freak in the sheets ]

Guess Mr. Aventurine was right after all. One or both?

He was right about what?

These are awfully forward questions of you. But I prefer the symmetry of two.

[ :) ]

You're welcome to decline answering any you feel are too forward. I don't actually want to make you feel uncomfortable.

I am just surprised you do not seem to hesitate asking what is on your mind is all.

Given the nature of these places, I'd rather we all learn about each other in a more organic way rather than be forced into by some other power.

I can concede that.

Anything you'd like to ask me? Doesn't seem very fair if I'm the only one asking questions.

Would you ever consider getting a nipple piercing?

Sure, as long as it's not uncomfortable underneath my clothes. Unlike you, I don't have access to clothes and shoes that magically fit to whatever else I happen to be wearing.

They are surprisingly easy to heal actually. As long as you refrain from strenuous activity for a short while, and you do not snag them.

You seem like a busy man, though.

I'll take your word for it, as the expert.

And I am, usually. Though not so busy that I can't find a little time for myself every day.

Well, sounds like you will be joining the others in their piercing ritual.

[ are you nonconning a nipple piercing onto him ]

You won't be joining us?
