( OPEN ) AND THEY WERE ROOMMATES...?

WHO: Whoever wants to be involved!
WHERE: Serene
WHEN: Before the imminent jailing, leading up to the jailing.
WHAT: An open house for Han Sooyoung Corporation, which is an apartment complex renovated for fellow Restless! While Sooyoung, Dokja, and Joonghyuk have invited a few for the initial wave, they want to see if others may be interested which may be followed with a public network post later in the month after all the event things.

As a note, while this is a light-hearted gathering where Joonghyuk, Sooyoung, and Dokja consider housing logistics, the Hierarchy guards will come in and arrest criminals somewhere midway... Sometimes you drew blood and must face the consequences.

If characters found interest in joining just from the open house alone, feel free to submit a form, but as Sooyoung and Joonghyuk will be jailed for a portion of the event, Dokja will be the contact for house things.

This post is also FFA!

WARNINGS: will be updated if anything comes up!

STOP BEING HOMELESS TODAY!


Wherever you are in the Stygia, you'll find a flyer that notes a refuge for Restless from other worlds. It is better to combat the Netherworld, its curses, and its beasts in numbers, no? Hopefully here you can form bonds with those who share the same space, that is what the flyer tries to sell you. An address is penned after its pitch, a building found in the calm of Serene.

The building towers over, floors overtaken by vines with no end and hanging plants, but it seems to be spruced up a bit compared to other forsaken lands. The yard has been manicured with grass leveled like someone bought a lawnmower for this occasion (they didn't). The doors are open for those who wish to take a tour of the floors, granted they will find Floor 3's Suite 1 locked. The rest are free for perusal and they are in good form, though empty aside from wild greens and beds.

Most of the action is on the yard, anyway... What with the wafting aroma of food, the sound of popping kernels, and the wonky projector that plays some movies from Mirth's notice board.


NETFLIX & FEAR?


The projector isn't the best quality... It really did seem like someone haggled their way to get it, however, and it plays while being attached to someone's phone which somehow has a USB slotted in. Netherworld technology really is interesting? Swathes of blankets are placed on the floor for all to lodge and enjoy the movies with sweet and salty popcorn (maybe tomato flavor, there are a lot of flavors) to munch.

The movie list can be found here (with whatever you can think of):

✦ Paranormal Activity
✦ The Blair Witch Project
✦ It
✦ The Ring
✦ Cargo
✦ Black Swan
✦ Us
✦ Nope
✦ The Cabin in the Woods
✦ Beetlejuice
✦ The Interview with the Vampire
✦ Shark movies (Jaws, Sharknado, etc.)

Outside of popcorn, there is stew and bread available for feast. It's delicious despite its simple presentation. While a bowl warms the heart and the stomach, it won't be washing away whatever jealousy y'all fostering. Weirdos. There are also dumplings, though one out of every twelve is extremely spicy.

No, there is no alcohol unless someone else brings it with them.

— ✤ —

Remember that the Hierarchy will be busting in later in the open house to arrest people, just to reference in threads if necessary! For characters interested in joining the house, feel free to submit a form to this page or wait until the network post later in the month.

[ THE STAIRS? THE STAIRS. CHILDE, THE STAIRS!!!

Which is how Dokja ended up on the roof, away from all the clamor going on inside because sometimes you are not a people person and need space. So off he'd gone to the rooftop like some anime character in search of privacy and lo and behold he gets none of that.

Because some dude just dropped in after scaling the building. ]


Are... are you lost?

[ He is not in his white coat. ]

[ Why take the stairs when you have the power of anime on your side—

Tartaglia whips around just in time to see someone else end up on the roof, via totally normal reasons. One of these days he'll think about making use of the stairs but today is not that day. ]


Maybe a little. I'm trying to find a place.

[ Nevermind he already FOUND the place, but details. ]

Are you good with directions?

[personal profile] salvageable 2022-11-08 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
[ That's so funny that Childe picked literally the worst person to ask directions from. ]

Terrible with them, actually.

[ Flashbacks to all those times he'd gotten lost... Even in his own company building. Maybe this guy is the same? Then again, scaling an entire building to scope out the area feels kind of extreme. ]

What are you looking for?
lackluster: (pic#16057974)

[personal profile] lackluster 2022-11-08 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
[ Finding out that this guy is terrible at directions too doesn't deter his spirit at all. ]

Couldn't be any worse than me. [ He'd be surprised? Maybe? ] Let's see... it's an apartment complex I was invited to.

[ When he fishes out his phone, he brings up the screen where his messages with Han Sooyoung detail the address of the place. He shows it to Dokja. ]

Do you know where I could find this place?

[personal profile] salvageable 2022-11-08 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
[ God bless that Dokja isn't so stupid that he can't point out the very building he is standing on top of. ]

... That's... You've found it.

[ IS THIS GUY REALLY LUCKY? OR IS THIS A JOKE?

Anyway, Dokja gestures to the ground which is the roof of their housing complex. ]

[ Wait a minute. ]

Seriously?

[ He looks at the address on the screen again, becoming the math lady as he tries to make sense of what just happened. ]

[ And then, he's laughing. ]

That's a relief. I was beginning to think it was completely made up.

[ no, childe... you just looked in all the wrong places ]

[ Laughs awkwardly with... ]

Did you really not know? What a coincidence, then.

[ WHO ARE YOU ]

Well, you have great timing. Everyone else is settling inside if you'd like to join them.

[ Until Dokja asks him for his name... ]

Oh? Are there other new people moving in today too? [ That's nice. ] And who do we tell about the broken elevator?

[ Not that it's a problem for him, but y'know. ]
salvageable: (pic#15563137)

[personal profile] salvageable 2022-11-09 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose I'm technically one of the people in charge of that, but I've never fixed a broken elevator before.

[ Look at him. Does he look like someone who can do that?? ]

The stairs aren't bad to use or anything. It makes for a good work out.
lackluster: (pic#16057974)

[personal profile] lackluster 2022-11-09 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
You've never done it? Isn't it a good time to learn now?

[ Despite the smile on his face, somehow what he said comes across as mildly threatening... as if something bad might happen if Dokja doesn't fix the elevator. ]

Some people don't like taking the stairs, you know.

[ BRO OVER AN ELEVATOR? ]

Oh? Is there something wrong with your legs? You seemed to have scaled the building without any issues.
lackluster: (pic#16044235)

[personal profile] lackluster 2022-11-11 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
[ He's mostly joking, because who would care this much over a broken elevator... but it's funny just to see this guy's reaction. ]

Even if that's the case, what if I decide I want to take the easy way up? Don't tell me you'd rather take the stairs forever.

[ Strangling motions in his head. ]

You're right. It only makes sense to have a working elevator. I'll see what I can do.
lackluster: (pic#16044230)

[personal profile] lackluster 2022-11-14 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
Glad to hear it. I'll make sure to tell everyone that you'll personally be handling it.

[ By tomorrow, everyone in the apartment complex will know Dokja is the guy to ask about the elevator. :D ]
salvageable: (pic#15563135)

[personal profile] salvageable 2022-11-17 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
How diligent of you.

[ This is what makes Dokja abandon the apartment... Well, this and the Hanahaki. ]

Then, please make your way downstairs to join the others.

[ Just like that, Tartaglia is less imposing and back to his usual cheerful self. ]

Are you coming too? We can take the stairs together.

[ As if he didn't just threaten the guy over the elevator. ]

[ What a weirdo.......

But he'll match that energy. ]


I'll be down in just a moment. I guess I need a bit of a breather from the party.

You are? Are people partying too hard?

[ He is simply a normal, sad, introverted man. An average reddit user, if you will. ]

Just a lot more people than I was expecting. I'm not usually the sort to play the part of the host.

[personal profile] lackluster 2022-11-29 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
Hm. I guess you don't really look like the type to be the life of a party. That's fine.

[ He'll take his exit now, casually waving. Through the door and down the stairs, at least. ]

See ya downstairs.
