♔ quinze || i have called upon thee

[ensorceler]

While we all may be gladdened knowing that there was no such trap set for either party, and that our brave champions have so helped those in need, but that does not mean there is nothing to be concerned for. The castle seems to play at mischief; that or there are master thieves at work.

My room. My room is missing.

[ She had pondered the possibility that somebody had come in and pilfered absolutely everything, but that seems even more unlikely than the castle just making it disappear to be a douche. Currently she's sitting on a chair in a corner of the lobby, looking as composed as one can while simultaneously furious. ]

Until I am able to locate it, I must stay...elsewhere.

Comments

Queen Anne

[wolfchild]

There's empty rooms, Your Grace.

Princess Arya

[ensorceler]

[ Yeah a big empty room sounds super appealing. Then again all she does is sit in the dark, anyway. ]

It is [ EXPECTED, she almost says, but thinks that might make Arya pissy. ] kind, and Christian for people to open their homes to those suddenly without.

[ Back home people would be throwing their doors open for her and breaking their banks to feed her. She doesn't expect that but she's just a little lost right now. ]

Queen Anne

[wolfchild]

You would rather stay with a stranger than alone?

[workaphilic]

Perhaps it meant to send you back and botched the job.

[It's improbable, not impossible. But his drawling tone makes it pretty clear what his opinion on the likelihood is.]

[ensorceler]

[ Meaning he's just trolling, and she knows it. Get the fuck out. ]

Your inclusion in this mystery has been most enlightening, Master Holmes. I am not certain how I might fare without your insight, but that is something I would soon wish to discover.

[workaphilic]

By all means. Not my type of case, misplaced furniture.

But if you're to look yourself, let's pray someone is desperate for a flatmate.

[fantasies]

The whole thing?

[That's an unsettling thought. It's nice to know that his room is always waiting for him, just in case. He hasn't stayed there once, not since he first arrived, but it was always there.]

... Do you need help finding it?

[She helped him. He can do the same.]

[ensorceler]

I would not wish to send you on so base an errand, little lord. I am uncertain if it is still even here...

[fantasies]

You can't just not have a room. The castle wouldn't do that. [Would it?] You need to sleep somewhere.

[whichwayyoulean]

Do you want me to check the floor map for you? I'm sure it'll be there.

LATER...for cr funtastic times

[ensorceler]

[ She is thinking of like the blueprints on paper, you know how it goes. And how would that be useful. ]

Who would have carried out such a monumental task since the time this occurred? Surely it would be outdated.

awww yis

[whichwayyoulean]

York plays around with it all the time. I guess it's like his obsessive hobby or something. Everyone needs one.

[findatree]

Oh, no! Um, I know it's a lot of stairs to climb, but you can stay with me if you want!

[ensorceler]

[ A chuckle. ]

You are most noble, little master, and I thank you; But the Master Once-ler has managed to locate for me where all my belongings have gone. It appears I am now on the second level.

[findatree]

You're closer to everything, then. That's good.

dictated;

[gottaknockhard]

[As if everything is normal between them...]

It reaches a little far to get a laugh out of you sometimes.

dictated;

[ensorceler]

It is failing, and so are you.

[ Don't joke right now, this is serious!!! ]

[bronwe]

Do you mean your throne is missing?

[ensorceler]

[ A suffering sigh. ]

My throne, my bed, my dresses — everything in my apartments, including my name on the door.

Dictated

[sworn]

It's been so long since the castle has played this trick that I'd almost forgotten about it.

Dictated

[ensorceler]

For a trick, it is of the most elaborate, for I was here only hours ago.

[ino]

You can stay in my room in the castle until you find yours, if you want.

[ensorceler]

You are kind, enough to near make me wish it had not yet been discovered. But my apartments have been found.

MEANWHILE, BACK AT THE RANCH...

[ensorceler]

[ It might be a sorrowful event that this is the closest that Anne has been allowed to feel a queen in months — with a pup of a girl playing guard while a fool, a ninja, and a general of all things play at common laborers in her brand new apartments on the second floor.

Her furniture is not light. Her bed alone is enormous, with dark heavy wood just like most of her furniture (armoires, trunks, large and small tables and chairs) that isn't also accessorized with gold, not to mention the occasional statue. The tapestries are just impossible to re-hang due to the awkwardness of their size and the clear need for ladders, and this isn't just one room. There's the first room which is treated as a throne room (oh yes, don't forget to move the throne), then the adjoining room acting as her solar, and beyond that her bedchamber and of course the privy.

Anne, at least, is not just sitting and watching while stuffing her face. The food wished for and set out in the corner is for later; she hardly trusts these people to know how to handle what, so she is constantly moving about to give them orders (as politely as possible when directed towards the women). Arya is mostly left to her own devices, since she's not going to tell a young girl to lift things such as these, and she's not sure she trusts her with the smaller more delicate objects. ]

[wolfchild]

[ arya is bored. very, very bored. she's not used to standing still and doing nothing in situations like this. but she's also quite happy to not have to lift anything heavy. to keep herself entertained, she picks up one of the smaller chests. from the sounds and weight, arya guesses it will likely hold jewelry. ]

Where will this go?
