The Horseman followed Lucius and Narcissa as they headed towards level 5 and the mysterious locked door. "Locked doors are never a good thing" he said to himself wisely. He checked to make sure the other members of the party were following.

It took some time to get the majority of the group down to level five, and when they got there Narcissa was disappointed to see that the room itself was not much to look at. It was fairly nondescript and set out of the way so as not to attract attention. She wondered momentarily how Lucius had come across it in the first place.
"Well, this is it," her husband said, rapping his cane against the door.
[OOC: I'm going to have to leave soon, but I thought this room on the map was worth some attention. I may post one or two more times, but otherwise I'll leave you to it. I hope no one dies while I'm away!]

It was a bit difficult to pile all of their group into the elevator at once, not to mention dangerous, so Marie followed everyone down the long flights of stairs to the storage level. Really, what was so interesting down here, besides maybe an array of stored cakes?
Leaving Georgiana's side, she picked up the pace so that she was standing next to the horseman, again at a loss of where to look when addressing him. Strange, though, that the thought of a headless person walking around and speaking and eating bothered her less than it did the day before.
"Out of curiosity, how do you...well, how do you do anything? I've seen a great number of headless people in my time and none of them ever stood up to walk and talk as if all were as it should be."

[I agree, it's worth us being down here and calling attention to it.... I think we're going to see more of it in the future]
The Horseman was slightly disappointed with the room as a whole, but he knew from experience they these were the sort of places that often had a lot of things happen in them. He went over to the locked door, and knocked just to see if anyone was in there. When that failed he tried the handle, and gave the door a little shove.
"I suppose" he said, turning to the group, "this is something we will have to ask our hostess when she returns" he said looking back towards the door.
Hearing a question which could only be directed at him, he turned towards Marie.
"Sometimes I do wonder myself" The Horseman replied with a small sigh. "And it has perplexed people in my position for my years how we manage to walk and talk as if nothing were wrong. I suppose that is part of the curse really. We can do things as normal people... but we don't look normal. Still" he said cheering up "it could be worse" but he tried not to think about the worse things.
"Shall we go and find the games room then?" he asked.

Damon was disappointed to find that that mysterious room would have to remain a mystery. He perked up when the headless man began to discuss his strange headless-ness. "I suppose I'll have to introduce myself and discover his name," Damon mused. "I can't keep on calling him 'the headless man.'"
Damon made his way through the small group until he stood next to the man. "I couldn't help but overhear your discussion about being headless," Damon said. "By the way, I'm Damon Salvatore."

Disappointingly, Richard remembered very little from the night before. He'd been chatting to that Damon fellow... and then he'd woken up on the floor of his room. With a headache.
Oh, it'd been ages since the last time he'd had a night like that.
Richard knew he should probably eat something, but he'd never liked eating, anyway. He'd skip that, then.
Figuring he'd run into someone sooner or later, he set off down a random hallway, wondering if maybe he was too old to be wearing eyeliner.

Mrs. Lovett smiled at Marie and was still smiling when she was left alone in the corridor. She looked around and stumbled before trying to walk in the general direction she remembered everyone going. "Easy, there ol' gal. Getting sea sick a'ready makes for a---" She ran into an elevator door and laughed hysterically. She pressed the up button, on a whim. She went up to the ballroom and found a piano and sat at it, she began playing random music, some of it quite creepy, and very loud.
[OOC: Darn it! Sundays are super busy for me. Be back in a few hours. Everyone, you have permission to drag Mrs. Lovett around if you get bored. haha, sorry!]

Edward had trailed at the back of the group, following them up to the mysterious room. Upon finding the room locked, he pondered his options. He could either stand off to the side quietly and come back to explore later or he could show off his awesome alchemy abilities. As he always said, "Can't find a door? Make your own!" Fullmetal grinned suddenly, why not go ahead and make a door?
Coughing loudly to get people's attention, Ed said to the room in general, "You know... I could get us into that room quite easily."

Meanwhile Kit, a few hours ago, had wandered merrily into the Wheel House and saw that there was no captain, although there were crew aplenty.
"Where is the captain, young private?" She inquired the handsome young man who looked fresh out of ... sailing... school.
He looked up from behind in panel in confusion, "... Why... you <i>are</i> the captain, Ma'am."
Well, dang, that's a surprise.
"... Okay, then. Shall we set sail then? Good. Let's, uh, set sail."
Everyone in the Wheel House watched her expectantly.
So she reached out and turned the wheel a little.
As if it was the catalyst to the ship, everyone suddenly then bustled along, speaking in codes and doing all the things necessary to "set sail".
"Mmmm," Kit thought, "Being a captain's not so hard."
And then she was reminded of Bernard Hill. "Oh, bloody---"

[ah! I am so late...]
TT stumbled our of her cabin, dismayed. It was late. She had arrived on the ship late last night. And now it was late on second day. She had probably missed all the good, exciting stuff, of the day.
Rubbing her eyes, TT looked around. "Oh? are we just setting sail?" At least she hadn't missed everything...

In her attempt to simultaneously munch on her plate of goodness and follow the group of explorers through the ship, MB managed to get separated from everyone.
As she finished her pie, she looked up to find herself alone. Alone in a corridor on an unfamiliar vessel at a gathering with violent traditions.
"Ummmm ... " squeaked MB.
"Well this is just fantastic. Where on Earth did everybody go?" she wondered allowed, determined to not let herself get freaked out. At that moment, she felt the ship lurch forward a bit, throwing her completely off balance and making her drop her entire plate of goodies. As she picked herself off the floor, she looked at her ruined plate of goodies and groaned.
"Well, at least we're on our way to ... ummm ... wherever it is we're going," she thought as she picked up the mess of food off the floor and headed on her way to find something or someone familiar.

Tar wandered out of her room in the late afternoon, having had absolutely NO luck in interviewing anyone. Any time she had found a character interesting enough to make for a good interview, they had scurried off before she even made it over to them. She just didn't understand. Normally people were falling over themselves to get an interview, but she had yet to catch a single person. Maybe this party WAS cursed.
Tar walked out to the deck, and flopped down on the ground. Someone would have to walk by eventually, and she was gonna interview the HECK out of them.

"I am very pleased to make your aquaintance" said The Horseman as he bowed politely. "I am Sir Algernon Dagenham but you may call me Algie" he added.
Turning to Edward he asked "and how would you open that door?" with a quizzical expression on his er.. *ahem* ...
Just then the Horseman felt a slight trembling and he could hear very faintly the engine. "Looks like we have set sail" he said to the group, and walked out of the room to have a look over the side of the railings at the shore they were now leaving behind being VERY careful to hold onto the rail as tightly as he could.

Having been disappointed that the mysterious door was in fact locked, Georgiana joined the Horseman at the side of the railings. “It seems the ship is lurching away from land! I wish I knew more sailor lingo,” she remarked with a smile. “You know what this reminds me of? The Titanic. I love that film.” The ominous nature of her comment didn’t seem to occur to her, and she grinned towards the shoreline, which was slowly growing smaller. She heartily slapped the Horseman on the back, in a companionable manner. “Good-o! We’re setting sail!”

Having finally learned Algie's name, Damon was content and his curiousity was extinguished. Well, he was still quite curious about many of the characters on the cruise. Particularly the man in the leopard coat, whom he had been trying to meet for quite some time.
Damon felt the boat lurch slightly and quickly went to the rail along with Algie. "Ahh, we've finally set sail!" he grinned. He stared down at the water as the ship traveled away from the dock. "I do love water so. It's so fresh and clean."

Feeling the boat begin to move, Richard made his way to the deck, where a number of people had gathered along the railing.
Including the grape juice one from the night before, who was commenting about the cleanliness of water.
"It's not that clean, though, is it?" Richard couldn't help but say. "Think of all the rubbish people throw into the oceans. Not that I'm an environmentalist, but this planet's filthy."
