week one | arrival

The characters will arrive one by one, in whatever vehicle suits them the best to the front of estate. It's a beautiful estate filled with plants and trees and little ponds and all kinds of little hideaways. But it all cumulates at the main house, where they will be dropped off and greeted by a familiar face who stands outside the house and welcomes them in. They will be able to bring one suitcase with items and clothes as well as their pet(s?).

The main thing to notice when you step into the house though is that cameras are everywhere. Despite the many little hideaways of this house, there's no privacy whatsoever. Oh well!

When everyone is gathered together, the host from earlier will greet everyone with a merry:

"Welcome, my affection seeking friends! This is where you'll be staying the next few weeks. Find a place to settle in and get to know each other! I'll be around, in case you need anything."

He genuinely seems to mean it, at least?! But that seems to be it, he'll slip away in the meantime and leave you all to it.

A few things to note, of course:

  • There is only one "bedroom" which is a large room, with a closet full of futons to roll out and use in said room. Sleepover time!

  • There is an extra, extra, extra, extra large futon for Messmer.

  • In one of the rooms of the estate, there is a lovely piano ready for use. Feel free to ask for more instruments, if you'd like.

  • The kitchen is filled with food of all kinds and modern appliances so folks can cook whatever they'd like! There is also a bar in the kitchen, stocked with alcohol.

  • In the living room, there is a screen showing everyone's profiles. It is touch screen, so feel free to swipe through!

  • There is, of course, a banner in the living room reading 有緣千里來相會 (which, for the keen-eyed, translates to "Fate brings together those that are a thousand miles apart"). This was definitely written by the host.

  • There is a welcome cake.

Smart and cool.

[ he looks her over, though it's more analytical than anything else. ]

Then start by dressing the part.

[ .....................................

fucking prettyboys ]


What's that supposed to mean? [ What is wrong with her tasteful hoodie? She is practically wearing the perfect programmer's casual uniform. And she is very cute in it already. ] What, you think I should wear, like, a blanket? Like you?

[ Why is his shirt like that. ]
beatmatching: (034.)

[personal profile] beatmatching 2025-06-05 02:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he blinks once and then smiles.

he wasn't trying to be particularly pointed but he is himself so, alas. her look and words slide off of him like water on a duck. the look is elegant slutty, thank u~ ]


Well, a blanket pairs with sleepwear, yes? Not that this level of tailoring fits your look, but I'll ignore that problem for now.
fireball: (051)

[personal profile] fireball 2025-06-06 06:54 am (UTC)(link)
[ He only did something a little wrong, she's just very sensitive and takes everything personally. Their feud will be great.

Glaring at his elegant sluttiness. ]


Oh, I see, so you think you're better than me because you're wearing a poncho. Well, I sure hope you don't trip over that ego of yours into one of the ponds outside or something. Would ruin your whole vibe, wouldn't it?
beatmatching: (030.)

[personal profile] beatmatching 2025-06-06 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[ you'd think he'd be fussy over this, and yet- ]

I don't know, there's all types of performances.
fireball: (143)

[personal profile] fireball 2025-06-07 09:05 am (UTC)(link)
Sure, some people like clowns at the circus.
beatmatching: (041.)

[personal profile] beatmatching 2025-06-07 01:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[ clowns at the circus... ]

Now there's an insult from the archives of humanity.
fireball: (124)

[personal profile] fireball 2025-06-07 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure is a timeless classic, right?

[ agree with her!! ]
beatmatching: (040.)

[personal profile] beatmatching 2025-06-07 08:59 pm (UTC)(link)
A timeless classic from the time humans were treated as more than pets.

[ so yeah have your agreement

i mean what- ]

[ luka just smiles. ]

Humanity found the stars and then the stars grabbed ahold of them. We, pet-humans, only exist because of their continued generosity.

[ ... ]

You're fucking with me, right?
beatmatching: (005.)

[personal profile] beatmatching 2025-06-07 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not.

[ there's a certain look in his eyes that's almost wild, raw, and unpolished like his usual expressions.

this is him speaking the truth, in all its glory. ]
fireball: (068)

[personal profile] fireball 2025-06-08 08:26 am (UTC)(link)
[ yeah that expression on his face is scary. Like, she thinks of Luka as a pompous asshole, full of himself and the type to look down on others. Probably a sociopath? But that look is... she doesn't think it's possible to fake.

The thought does cross her mind: she could tell him, Good, you deserve to be someone's pet. But that might be a bridge too far, even for her.

There's also the thought that he's like this because he's someone's pet, which is a whole other. fucked up thing.

So, basically, she's just gawking at him for a while, until: ]


That's fucked up.

[ very eloquent. very insightful.

also, what the fuck. ]
beatmatching: (034.)

[personal profile] beatmatching 2025-06-08 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
It happened a long time ago.

[ ancient history. water is wet and humans are the pets of aliens.

it really has been weirder interacting with others where the structure is so different, to be honest. ]
fireball: (133)

[personal profile] fireball 2025-06-09 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry, it just— It kind of sounds like the plot to a movie. You know?

[ To what little credit she has, she is more subdued now. ]

You've really just... lived your entire life like that?
beatmatching: (030.)

[personal profile] beatmatching 2025-06-09 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
That's right.

[ he really doesn't have anything else to say there because it is what it is.


depressingly. ]
fireball: (034)

[personal profile] fireball 2025-06-09 07:13 am (UTC)(link)
[ ... She also has very little else to say. She could try to pat his shoulder, but she also still kind of doesn't want to touch him? Hm.

... ]


That's rough.

[ He doesn't even get a buddy. ]
beatmatching: (042.)

[personal profile] beatmatching 2025-06-09 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
It's fine. Our circumstances are very different, that's all.

[ he says this to her now, but he'll feel it more acutely after the ceremony at the end of the week. ]
fireball: (146)

[personal profile] fireball 2025-06-09 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She really has no idea how to process this, but as long as he says it's fine then that means she can keep on hating him without consequence, right? Surely.

So, okay, that's cool. ]


Well, as long as you know what you're doing.

[ It's said part huffily, part sympathetically. She's not sure. This is weird? How dare he make her feel feelings. ]
beatmatching: (049.)

[personal profile] beatmatching 2025-06-09 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Obviously. I've survived for this long.

[ actually, it's nice not having to dance around that bit. ]
fireball: (035)

[personal profile] fireball 2025-06-10 05:25 am (UTC)(link)
Well... good.

[ She's going to feel so much more normal when she can throw a spoon at his head later. ]
