DELIVERY + voice;

[whiteas]

[ Each and every resident of all five main archways will be receiving an invitation in their mailbox or equivalent:



ooc: Just pretend it looks nicer because I had to make that on a computer that only had MS Paint

Delivered promptly on the morning of the 24th, the invitation comes with an attached notice with the following details about the Genessia Scientific Research Foundation:

The Genessia Scientific Research Foundation (GSRF) is an upcoming scientific team dedicated to researching potential causes of abduction and release to-and-from the cities, the barriers, the pendants, archways, and other aspects of this world as they may be related to understanding how to go home and how to allow those who wish to stay insurance of a stable lifestyle here in Genessia. Donations will be accepted starting at the Gala to official start the GSRF. Money will not influence what is or is not studied at the foundation, it will only help the causes as stated. Those interested in participating in research should apply via Schnee Company until the foundation raises enough money to get its start.

And then later that day, Weiss makes an actual voice post. ]

I'm sure most of you have noticed your invitations by now, but for those who haven't? Check your mail. Anyone with one of the invitations will be permitted to attend the Schnee Company's Nova City branch grand opening and fundraiser for the Genessia Scientific Research Foundation. I'm well aware that not everyone can read the language it's printed in, so feel free to ask any questions you may have directly. The gala will start at 6pm and dinner will be included before the show and open dancing. It will be in the planetarium, so if you'd like to dress according to theme, please make sure that it is still formal. Consider it a black tie event and know that those who don't comply won't be allowed in.

I'm looking for celebrities to perform at my Gala and I was wondering if any of you would like to perform? I can pay, of course. I would like your responses within the next three days so that I have time to effectively schedule this evening.

Filtered to Schnee Company security team members, bcc: Armin
I'd like as many of you as possible on the floor. Given that I don't want anyone having weapons to ensure safety, we will need as much security as possible to ensure everyone is safe from outside criminals. You're welcome to wear either your uniforms or formal wear, just make sure it's something you can move in.

I trust I don't actually have to ask you to be my date for the event, but we are going to have to get your hair properly groomed before the Gala. You can come to the salon with me that morning and if you need me to explain why getting rid of split ends will actually help your hair grow stronger and longer, I've prepared an entire binder for you with significant research to support my point that you will be forced to read if you disagree.

Thanks.

[Then, about 5 minutes later.]

For thinking about those of us who don't actually want to go home, as well.

[whiteas]

Of course. I'm not entirely sure which category I fall into myself right now, so I know it's entirely possible I'm not the only one with reason to want to stay.

I trust you'll be attending then, Anonymous?

[redsnowangel]

Well, I kinda got myself killed back home, so don't exactly have much to go back to. Pretty sure I wouldn't even if I was still alive though. Got sick of that place.

Sure~ It sounds like it's going to be pretty fun.

[whiteas]

You really don't have a reason to go home then. That seems like even more reason to look for both answers.

I may not know who you are, but I'm sure I'll see you there.

[A formal gala... Muse has never been to one, and she's all sorts of excited and anxious about it. But all in a good way! She's only just became used to her celebrity status in this new world, and this is a good venue to solidify that.]

Ah, I would be glad to perform at your Gala, Weiss-san! I'll have to speak with my producer and let him free up my schedule for the 31st. I have a feeling it won't be a problem, so I will be there!

[Now to find something formal to wear...]

[Audio]

[whiteas]

I appreciate it. Let me know if you'll need anything. I've done some performing back home myself, so I know many of necessary considerations already.

[Audio]

[watertricks]

Yes. I will let you know if something comes up!

[Muse nods. Though Weiss couldn't see it, but Muse's positive enthusiasm just seeps through from her tone of voice]

But are there pre-selected songs you wish for me to sing at the gala?

[Audio]

[whiteas]

I'd rather leave that to you since it'll be your performance, but if you want to pick five, I'll select which ones would be a good idea. I expect there may be more than just you performing, so the number will be dependent on how many other performers show interest. I can promise you two to three songs minimum.

[deathsought]

I will admit, that does seem like a worthy cause.

[whiteas]

I figured most would think as much. It's about time someone started trying to find some real answers here.

[ text ]

[deathsought]

In that, we are in agreement.

{ The most he's been able to do without the charms to study first-hand is theorize. At this point, he thinks it's not a who that brought them here, it's a what. The gateways seemed similar in funtion to Eclipse, only Eclipse was meant to travel through time, not through interdimensional space. Magic was clearly present in this world, and his Curse was more or less in-tact, even if he seemed to have better control over it, for the most part.

He agreed; they needed real answers. }

I have access to Tartaros' guild funds, though they have dwindled greatly since Mard Geer's departure. I have no use for them. Sayla, Suigtinou, and I can find other ways to earn money.

{ It was operating too much like, well, a dark guild for his tastes, even if he wasn't an official member. }

[whiteas]

If that's the case, I'd be happy to put those funds to a good cause.

Not really sure what a black tie event involves, I've never been to one.

Voice

[whiteas]

Formal wear. Elegant dresses or crisp, well-fitting tuxedos and suits. If you go to a store and ask, they shop owners will be able to help.

[melodiouspacifist]

Sounds kinda stuffy and uncomfortable.

[There's a pause as he looks at himself.]

How about a black coat? Would that work? Goes down to my knees.

[whiteas]

There'll be a coat check at the door, you're welcome to wear it over your formal wear until you come inside.

Nice idea boss. S'cool of ya.

Now for the schindig, you want us obvious or us to be 'discreet' as we keep an eye for the inevitable trouble that'll show up?

Schnee Company filter [Text]

[whiteas]

Discreet. You're allowed to wear your uniform, but I'd prefer it if you didn't do anything to scare or intimidate the guests.

[spacedragonmonk]

Hey, I may not like skulkin' about but that don't mean I can't. This ain't my first 'party where I don't want folk and blighters to be seein' ya' Boss.

Ya got the keys to the Planetarium? Want to amble about and see how things are. Reverse-case the joint, you might say.

voice;

[soldierofloveandbeauty]

I think I should be able to do such a thing. If that is still okay of course?

voice;

[whiteas]

Yes, it's acceptable. It looks like it will be you and Muse. Do you have any song preferences or needs for your performance? I'd like to set up a timetable and make the appropriate arrangements ahead of time.

voice;

[soldierofloveandbeauty]

Well I guess if you want a certain style of music at your party, then I would be find to adjust to that really. But apart from that I don't need a lot really.

[cuteisawayoflife]

Oh, I am so there. A grand party for a worthy cause is the best possible thing! [Aww, Fashion Club nostalgia.]

[text]

[whiteas]

It's always good to have someone with the right mindset interested.

[cuteisawayoflife]

I'll put together the best outfit I can for this, too!
