((I should note that the Velvet Room I've designed is quite different from before. Igor appears sitting on a chair opposite the characters, with a table between them. The previous Velvet Rooms have been a Night Club, a large elevator, and a limo. My Velvet Room is a resturant.))

 

"Ah, another guest, how lovely. Please, take a seat young miss." Igor said, motioning from Kailyn to a chair near the others, "I sense that you already may have some idea of what is going on here...As I said, I am Igor, and this is the Velvet Room. We offer a unique service to those who sign the Contract. Already two people who have come here tonight have signed, should you desire, you are also welcome to do so."

Kailyn considered the man's words. Perhaps he knew something about the shadows...but exactly what was unknown. She took a seat and asked "exactly what are the binding terms of your contract?" She turned and saw the others who were in the room. Perhaps if two had already signed, then perhaps it should be alright. As long as whatever the terms were weren't dangerous, She wouldn't mind.

Feeling her violent tendencies act up from all this waiting, Selene decided to play this game she had heard of. The idea was simple. Everyone that walked by was guilty of a crime. The object was to guess that crime.

 

Starting with herself, and moving in a clockwise direction, she proceeded around the room naming crimes for people. She got assault, the second kid to Sign was a murderer without premeditation. Igor was a premeditated murderer, another kid was an arsonist, and the Circus performer was a rapist.

 

Unfrortunately, this only passed a little time, and most of these people had yet to sign. This was boring. However, her optimist side regained control, and so, Selene reasoned that, because she had gotten knocked out in a fight, this Velvet room experience was better than lying on hard asphalt any day. Or, more probably in this case, night.

Igor turned to Kailyn with a slight smile on his face.

"The terms of the Contract are simply this, no matter what happens from when you sign onward, you must take responsiblility for your choices, and accept the consequences."

 

The young woman who had been standing at Igor's side suddenly leaned down and whispered in his ear.

 

"Oh, is that so?" he said with a slight chuckle before turning to Selene, "Quite an interesting game to play young lady, quite interesting indeed. It makes me wonder what might exactly be revealed in your Soul, when the time comes..."

 

The boy next to Selene turned to her with a look of confusion on his face.

"Game? What's he talking about?" he asked her.

"..." Of course. Igor was in her subconscious, so of course he knew about the game she was playing. The embarassing part would be having to explain this game to this boy.

"The game is where you decide what someone is guilty of." Selene decided to take away the fear that she knew Igor could sense now. "You look at people, and decide what they could possibly be arrested for, should they get caught."

 

"It's more a game of opinion, essentially. One person could say that I am, say, an arsonist. I, on the other hand, think that I would be better suited with an assault charge on my permanent record."

 

That was what could possibly be the most embarrasing moment ever for Selene. She was used to speaking out, but possibly having to reveal secrets that were hers to keep? Not very well suited for that. Igor could possibly exploit every single secret she had if he wanted to. Again, Selene was facinated by Igor.

Leto watched the scene unfold in bewilderment. She'd come for a meal, was she instead witnessing a show? She was curious though.

"Game? Contract?" she asked quizzically. She realised, the proprietor had just said that this was a dream, but why would she be dreaming about this now? Maybe she's eaten a bit too much junk, but no, she was starving, Maybe it was just the opposite, she was hungry enough to halucinate? Or maybe she'd just wandered ito some kind of bizzare themed restraunt.

She walked toward Igor.

"I want to sign." she said curiously, wondering what would happen.

"Ah excellent!" Igor said with a smile as leto came over, "Simply sign the Contract, anywhere on the page you wish shall do." he said, motioning to the open red book on his table, "And if the other young miss also signs," he said, motioning to Kailyn, "We will have enough to begin."

 

"Heh, that's an, as Igor put it, interesting game." the boy said with a small laugh, "My name's Kisame by the way," he said, offering his hand out to Selene, "So, what crime did you think I'd commit?"

Selene shook his hand. "Well, I don't know anything about you, so I guessed murder without premeditation," she replied. She found this secret thing a little easier without Igor and his assistant probing her thoughts and revealing them spontaneously. "But, as I said, I don't really know you that well, so what would you say you are guilty of?"

She couldn't help but wonder exactly what the other girl was doing...something about crimes? At the very least Kailyn didn't feel like any old criminal...or much of one at all. She brought her attention back to Igor.

"If that's all there is to it...I'll join in" Kailyn said. Sure, the whole situation looked like it was filled with some..fascinating characters, but she figured that it'd be all the more fun in it.

OoC: Sorry if it looks like I'm posting immediately after someone else does. I'm trying to keep good RPs alive.

IC: The amount of patience required in this room was astronomical. Selene, running out of things to do, noticed some portraits. A blue haired kid stood out as a prominant figure. Selene didn't know what this teenager did, but to gain Igor's approval must have taken som effort on whatever "trial" he had to face. Was he dead now? She didn't know, but he looked like a true leader in the portrait. Like someone who could save the world from a calamity.

"...probably...premeditated murder, or possibly rape." Kisame answered, trying hard not to break out into laughter.

 

Igor meanwhile noticed the portrait that Selene was looking at.

"Ah, taking notice of my collection...well actually, it's more like Elizabeth's collection really." he said, ignoring the slight blush from his assistant, "The one you are so interested was...interesting, to say the least. Though not the...greatest, per-say, of those who have signed the Contract, he may well have been the most powerful. Nearly cost him his life, if not for Elizabeth here-" Igor started, stopping only when he noticed his assistants blush getting deeper, "regardless, for a time Elizabeth's older sister aided me when she was away aiding the young man. It was during her time here that I encountered another interesting youth." he said, motioning to the picture next to the blue-haired boy. This picture showed a boy, slightly older than the other, with silver hair wearing a pair of glasses, "Though not as strong, he was superior in other fields, such as leadership, a field his predessesor didn't always have great success at. Regardless, they managed to complete their Trials, and now it is your turn. We can begin once the ladies," he said, motioning to Kailyn and Leto, "Have signed the contract."

The rape prospect that this boy had answered was frightening. It almost sounded like a threat to the virginity that she had mainatained for 15 years. Even that, she would have to get assaulted to do it.

 

These two were taking a long time to sign. They had already declared their intention of signing the contract, yet, were taking forever to actually sign. Were they having second thoughts? Selene didn't know, but she wanted to get this signing part over with. In truth, mostly because she wanted to see where she ended up after she had been knocked out.

 

Continuing to scroll across Elizabeth's collection. Selene noticed something strange. Most, if not all, of these portraits depicted male characters. This one was a male, the kid with the glasses was male, and even most of the others were all male. Yet the two female figures in these portraits stood out to her, especially the blond one. She looked sophisticated, patient, and maybe even showed some more leadership than the blue-haired teen.

 

"And who is this?"

Kailyn finished signing her name off...but even though she knew that there could be no harm, she felt like she just signed her soul to hell. Taking heed of the conversation around, she decided to take a look at those photos the other girl was looking at. The one with the Blue hair...really looked cute. Kailyn blushed looking at that picture. The one with the silver hair...she noticed he had some looks, not quite as nice as the blue-haired boy, but figured he must have had style.

 

OoC: Does Minako's photo make an appearance? (P3P Female Protaganist)

((Radio...the only blonde protagonist I can figure is Aigis...so if that's wrong, tell me and I'll edit this post...and sure, Minako can have a portrait, right next to Minato...but no mentioning them by name...))

 

"Ah wonderous, another signature, one more and we will proceed." Igor exclaimed before noticing Selene pointing to the portrait of a young blonde girl, "Ah yes. She shares a destiny quite closely with him." Igor said, motioning to the blue-haired boy, "And who knows how your Trial may play out. I hope it will prove to be as interesting as theirs did."

 

Kisame finally couldn't hold his laughter back and broke out into what could almost be called an insane laugh. Almost, it was more-or-less just weird.

"Gyah-this is all too hilarious! A girl who assigns people crimes in her spare time, a circus performer, and a girl who's just a bit too serious if you ask me! Gyahhahah, what's the point of all us being here? What Trial would possibly need such a strange combination of people?!"

 

"Oh, you'll see." Igor said, lowering his gaze on Kisame, "I'll explain once we have our forth Signer."

OoC: Yes, the "blonde girl" is referring to Aigis.

 

IC: That confused her. The "share the same destiny" idea. They couldn't be dead, could they? Were they really alive, but scarred? This was getting out of hand. If only she had some sort of comfort...

Then she realized, she did have comfort. Her little armband with the letters SEES on it. She didn't know what those letters meant, but they felt special, and the armband itself was sometimes comforting if she couldn't take the weirdness going on.

 

OoC: Question: What if Yae doesn't reply to this thread again? People often do that, I mean, I know I've done it, and I can name multitudes of other people that do it. Yes, it screws the plot, but why not a backup plan just in case?
