In the ballroom...

[For those residents that find themselves locked in the ballroom, it's really quite a sight to see.

Balloons and streamers and cardboard hearts are strewn all about the room, hanging from the ceiling and decorating those tall, locked doors. But even if the doors won't open, it's not the worst place a person could find themselves.

If you're tired, there is a section of the ballroom where Valentine-themed blankets, pillows, beanbags and blow-up furniture spread out across the floor. The lights are somehow significantly dimmer on this side of the room, allowing for easier sleep.

Along one wall is a seemingly endless array of snack foods, candies, hors d'oeuvre, and anything else someone might want to wish up. There's plenty of room! Nearby, a chocolate fountain stands as tall as the average resident, constantly flowing with delicious chocolate for dipping. Directly beside the fountain is a very, very large chocolate chip cookie shaped like a heart. The cookie alone could feed the entire ballroom if desired. Perhaps as you approach the snack area, you'll find yourself holding a tall, cold glass of pink lemonade.

For entertainment, there is plenty of music, movies and video games to satisfy all genres. Residents are free to wish up whatever they'd like! This is all about having fun with others, after all, and Paradisa's willing to allow (almost) anything to get those bonds forming.


TEAM BUILDING EXERCISE OF THE DAY

In the center of the room is a parachute of grand proportions, colored with stripes of red, pink and white. It's rather large, and cannot be handled by just a few people.

Residents may feel encouraged to run over and help lift the parachute. If enough people can band together and start up a few parachute games, the castle will reward the ballroom.

The reward: The ceiling of the ballroom will fade away, giving the illusion of sunny skies and fluffy clouds during the day, and brilliant stars at night.]

[oh dear that is so not creepy at all

[ UNINTENTIONAL.

[the realm of dumb is hardly foreign to her, loath as she may be in admitting it. Really, that can be the only explanation for why she seems to think flinging the corner she's holding up in the air can be useful -- because it doesn't contribute much.

Having a team would really help right now :x]

You're gonna get nowhere by yourself.

[but not himself? She sees how it is]

Sooner or later somebody will notice and help out of pity or whatever.

[going up to a crowd she mostly doesn't know and asking is out of the question, obvs]

[ he is a perpetual curmudgeon in a room full of pink. grump factor is up 200%. ]

I supposed you see some point in the exercise that I don't?
squartatore: (23.)

[personal profile] squartatore 2012-02-12 03:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[hey, pink is a godly colour!]

For starters, I want to know if there's anything underneath. And if there's something as big as this in the middle of the room, it has to be here for a reason.
deminuit: (⩪ of the trees)

[ if that's what you like >:( ]

You underestimate Paradisa's ability to specialise in the truly pointless.

Maybe I do. It's a bet I don't mind chancing.

[there could be a hidden exit! She hasn't been in the ballroom much to know]
deminuit: (⩪ because i did)

[personal profile] deminuit 2012-02-14 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he grunts, and falls silent. talkative, i know ;; ]

...

[another look, and when he gives no more indication of saying anything, she goes back to checking out the parachute]
deminuit: (⩪ the point motherfucker. get to it)

[personal profile] deminuit 2012-02-14 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[ and he goes back to looking like he'd rather harakiri himsemf into an early grave than be here ;; ]
