Introduction of a Flower [Dictation/Action in the Lobby]

[theyseekhimhere]

[A very confused, and well dressed, man wakes up suddenly on a couch in the lobby. He looks around for anything remotely familiar. Although he is no stranger to grand buildings, this one is unfamiliar. He surveys the room before picking up the journal, reading the various entries. Perhaps he is searching for clues about his whereabouts or... perhaps not. Upon finding his name on the inside cover he lets out a small gasp of surprise.]


Really Percy, what have you gotten yourself into this time?


[Seeing his words appear on the journal page has him looking concerned and tapping his eyeglass on his chin. What to do?]

[ooc: New character in the lobby. Feel free to chat over journals or to happen upon him.]

Dude.

[Here, mister, have a pajama'd teenager, lazily carrying a massive ice cream sundae towards the staircase. She raises one eyebrow when she sees this man looking fabulously out of place, and gives a little snort of a laugh.]

Nice hair.

[thebestseller]

Nobody here but us chickens. Buck buck buck.

Huh? What'd I do?

[onlyanapple]

[Well, Percy, there's a well dressed guy wearing sunglasses coming your way, pausing right in front of you in fact]

For a start you're sitting on my couch.

[His couch, a public couch. Same difference]

[thraxios]

A castle.

action!

[An attractive young Japanese girl happens by. She notices the gentleman on the couch, and frowns slightly before smiling.]

"Hey there! I don't think we've met. I'm Yamada! What's your name?"

[He, like a true gentleman, stands up and bows. He does however raise his eyebrow in disbelief at her choice in clothes.]

Why thank you. A man's duty is to be well dressed after all.

Nice to meet you, Miss...?

[theyseekhimhere]

[He looks around in confusion before speaking.]

Why mysterious speaker you must be quite mistaken. There are no chickens to be seen anywhere.

Re: dictated

[theyseekhimhere]

Nothing so far as I'm aware.

[theyseekhimhere]

[Percy brings his eyeglass up to look at the man before standing and gesturing at the couch.]

My apologizes good sir.

Re: [Written forever]

[theyseekhimhere]

I had gathered as much. It is the unfamiliarity of this particular castle that so puzzles me. Perhaps you could give me a clue as to my whereabouts.

Re: action!

[theyseekhimhere]

[The man stands and bows to the girl.]

Sir Percival Blakeney, Baronet at your service, Lady Yamada.

[waterproofed]

But you said my name...

Re: dictated

[theyseekhimhere]

Ah. So some of the voices from this book do have names. Fascinating.

As to the name I said, that is mine. Sir Percival Blakeney; Baronet at your service.

[losemycherry]

[Wow, this guy's a real cavalier! Wonder if he's ever gotten laid before.]

C-Charmed, I'm sure... [She blushes, averting her gaze in modesty.]

dictated

[waterproofed]

I'm not a voice, I'm a person.

And my name's Perseus Jackson.

[theyseekhimhere]

Quite. Now Lady Yamada, I must confess that I am quite confused about how I came to be here. It is most embarrassing. Would you be so kind as to tell me where this is?

Re: dictated

[theyseekhimhere]

Is that so? Well either way it is quite nice to hear that perhaps I am not going mad. A pleasure to make your acquaintance Perseus Jackson.

[waterproofed]

... One of us has to go by a different nickname so we don't get confused.

Re: dictated

[theyseekhimhere]

A splendid idea. Although I must admit that I have been called Percy all my life and I loath to give it up now...

Perhaps Sir Percy would work.

dictated

[waterproofed]

Okay. And I'm just Percy.

Re: dictated

[theyseekhimhere]

Marvelous.

Now tell me Percy, how is it that I can hear you though this book?

dictated

[waterproofed]

That's just how the magic works. You can speak with anybody who's got one.

Re: dictated

[theyseekhimhere]

How very strange. I would think I was dreaming if I thought my mind could actually create something this complex.

I simply cannot wrap my head around this. So at anytime anyone in this place can hear whatever you say or write? How dreadful.

dictated

[waterproofed]

It's not that bad. You can always close it.
