ESCAPE ROOM DATES

[unhappy]

WHO: Anyone who signed up for this event (sign-ups are now closed).
WHAT: Escape Room Dates, brought to you by Aphrodite's Matchmaking!
WHEN: Friday, July 8th around 3pm.
WHERE: Nova City, some warehouse-looking building.
WARNINGS: See individual scenarios for information.

All of the people involved in the escape room dates will arrive in what looks like some kind of abandoned warehouse. Everyone there is then broken up into the following pairs and walked into the warehouse, which looks a lot nicer inside. A couple of NPCs lead your characters to the right areas, then explain the scenario.

Once the scenarios are explained, the doors are locked and the scenario begins! RP with your characters and when your character decides to investigate one of the key items (listed in the scenario under your pair's thread) at which point put the item indicator letter in the subject line along with how your characters decide to interact with the key items! I'll reply with what information they can get from the item or what happens to the item based on whatever your character does.

"Special" events may happen throughout the course of the thread without prompting, so watch out for replies from Emerald. I'll be putting up the scenarios, but once your pair's is posted you're welcome to start the thread.

[ Yui silently approaches the office, peeking through the crack before pulling back and looking at Angelo, mouthing that there's someone in there before stepping away five feet so they could whisper again. ]

There's a man in there with the key. I wonder if there's something we can do to get it from him. [ She's considering the fire alarm. Once they get the key, she thinks they should pull it to tell everyone to get out of the building to safety.. but if the guy with the key leaves first they won't get into the closet. ] You don't think he'd give it to us if we asked nicely, do you..?

[Once Yui's done talking, Angelo responds in his own whispering tone of voice.]

If he works for the gentleman causing all of this, it could be bad. I have a better idea. I'll sneak up on him and knock him unconscious then you take the keys and pull the alarm. Once everyone starts thinking there's a fire and runs out of the building, go use the keys on the closet and see if there isn't something to get the elevator running in there.

[ She holds up both of her hands in the 'stop' gesture. ]

It's a date, I'm not sure if knocking someone out is what you're supposed to do... [ She looks around again. ] He's almost out of soda, maybe we should get him one? Violence doesn't always have to be the answer, you know.

[playboyknight]

[He suddenly seems very disappointed. Oh well.]

I was hoping for the more impressive option, but we'll go with your plan instead.

Who are you hoping to impress with unnecessary violence?

[playboyknight]

[He grins at her.]

Well you of course.

[ She's not going to be rude, but she's definitely going to make her thoughts known, just as she would with anyone else. ]

A person who has strength and chooses not to show it until they need to is much more impressive than someone who shows their hand every chance they get. At least, that's what I believe.

[ Of course, Yui practices iaido- the sword style that relies on not moving until the exact moment it's needed. She's not calling herself impressive though (she would never), it's simply a style and creed she respects, particularly since her family cares for a shrine for a sword. ]

I doubt the man would volunteer to help on this date if he thought he was going to be pummeled, anyway...

[ She goes for her purse instead to take out a red bill for the machine. ]
