Quote: The corridor ended, and the final tapestry had only the word 'Kitoky' written on it in a banner at the base. It read '1901 - _____', which was quite amusing. At least she looked good for her age. It was otherwise blank.
[LOL!!!  *rolls over the floor laughing* ]
The smell of coffee caused Fluffy to be drawn to the drawing room. "Morning Elegost." she said as she got herself a large mug of coffee. She took place at the table, in fron of one of the windows, allowing the morning sun to shine on her face. "Still alive I see.." she commented while dipping a cookie in her coffee.
The murder of last day hadn't quite scared her -yet- as she knew that murders frequently occured at Halloween and despite the fact there were some odd headless or witchy guests, she was full confidence that as a group they could outsmart the killer. _________________

[[I think we need to make a rule for this thread: only such-and-such a number of non-role play posts in one day. That said, the last few pages were hilarious.]]
Fragile Silence walked down the stairs, her dark blue eyes rimmed by shadows. I need to start going to bed earlier. Sleep deprivation definitely won't help me enjoy this visit any more, she thought.
She found her way to the kitchen and made herself a cup of tea. She carried it out to the garden and found a white iron bench to sit on. She shivered. It was cold, though not unpleasantly so. The sun was rising above the autumn trees, gilding the last leaves of the year in colors of glowing scarlet and gold. Fragile pulled out a notebook from her skirt's pocket, and she set her cup of tea down beside her. She started to write the first few words to a poem. Too caught up in the moment to take the time for iambic pentameter or any other such form, she wrote in free verse as the sun climbed higher in the clear sky.

A loud lightning flash of purple and green confetti explodes outside the mansion.
The crashing sound seems to drown all other noises for a moment, drawing them into the vacuum of the settling dust. A tiny voice escapes from under the pile of colourful silence.
"Ouch".
The pile of confetti twitches and contracts as if coughing and finally reveals the figure of a small woman rolling out underneath. Her mainly black attire consisting of a long black dress and a midnight dark travelling cloak - now sprinkled with twinkling sparks all over. The figure gets up slowly, standing unsteadily, swaying like a drunk as if trying to fix the spinning world to her feet. She dusts herself off and places a black, pointed hat on her head.
Eä, for it was indeed she, arriving fashionably late looked up tilting her head slightly and inspecting the towering mansion before her.
"Happy Halloween".
A smile curled on her lips as she made her way to the front door hoping to be pardoned for her late arrival.

Fluffy ran over to tha Hall, alarmed by the noise and stumbling. Not again..? But then she recognised Eä's voice from under a pile of confetti. "Eä!" the blond woman said, somewhat relieved. "My dear, you're late.." She looked at concerned Eä, who was slightly smiling obviously not aware what had happened here last night.

Indilwen had been leaning against a nearby wall, pondering the events that had occurred. First a trip to the graveyard, and then she learns of a mysterious murder... and meets the ghost.
Suddenly she heard a loud crash, and she decided to investigate. She ran towards the door, where she saw a black - and sparkly - figure. "Ea! Could it possibly be you?" she cried happily. "All safe and sound, I hope... and alive!"

Her smile broadened at the sight or the welcome committee consisting of Fluffy and Ellie.
"Good day to you both ", she said tipping her hat slightly.
"You, my friend" - she wasn't quite sure whether she had met Fluffy before - "I can see you are thinking happy thoughts, that's good, carry on, spread some good karma." Eä pressed her fingertips to her temples in the typical mind reader stance, quite assured that she really had read Fluffy's mind this time.
"Well, thank you, Ellie, I still have to master the Confetti...", Eä growled and glared at the pile, which seemed to giggle before it popped back in the small box she held out in her open palm.
"I'm just come from a mind reader conference. What did I miss here?"
She turned at the sound of the third voice and chuckled*
"Alive I am... but safe... I never know..."

Indilwen laughed also, but there was a tinge of sorrow in her voice. "No one seems to be assured of safety right now... one never knows what may be lurking around the corners of this grand old mansion. "But tell me... a mind reading conference? You could be a great detective in this case then..." said she, smiling broadly. "Just don't get yourself killed, that wouldn't help us out too much."

[ Eä- Me = Will just for the record  ]
Fluffy looked at Indilwen as she without much delicacy spoke about the killing. "What Indilwen tries to say.." she soflty began, a little uneasy how to bring this message. ".. is that someone died last night. Saffron drowned in the fountain.." Fluffy's looked at Eä how she took it while mumbling: "I think we all need some good karma right now." _________________

Indi scuffled her feet on the floor. "Yes... mmhmm... what she said..." she mumbled before she grabbed Fluffy by the shoulder and whispered in her ear. "Why'd ya have to go and just say it like that? I was trying to prep her..."

"Alright, let's just stay out of the corners, who wants to go there anyway" She replied in a cheerful tone excited to have finally come to this long expected event.
"Yeah, a mind reading conference up in the 5th Heaven. It was like sooo boring, they were all lecturing on theories on mind reading, the history of mind reading and then we had a few workshops on practical MR, but since I applied late there was only room for Gardening MR..."
She looked about absently and pointed out a flower.
"That lily over there for instance, she's thinking about visiting her sister in Madagascar".
She shook her head rather discouraged.
"No wonder I never improve.. perhaps I should change my major...."
Eä looked up as if awakened from her trance and stared at Fluffy.
"There weren't any life guards at the fountain? That's very iresponsible. Who is in charge of security here???"

"Don't say that," Fluffy said quite shocked. "Kit will get a break-down when you mention such a thing in her presence. She tried to organise it so well."
She turned to Indilwen. "Well one couldn't say it more morbid as you did.." she whispered back, brushing her hands off her shoulder.
"Well.. is anyone in for a cup of coffee?" she said cheerfully as she glanced around the hall. "I think that my mug will have cooled off by now but the cookies are delicious!"

"Why, thank you." Indilwen sighed and turned back to Ea. "You can read the minds of flowers?" she said, her eyes wide. "Well, you seem to be doing well at it..." She held a hand to her head. "My head is spinning... a cup of coffee does indeed sound good."

"But Kit isn't here now, isn't she?" Eä grinned casually but pulled a serious face.
"No seriously, I don't doubt Kit's social and organisatorial skills as a hostess. She has proved to be a master in the art several times, but I haven't had a chance to see everything here yet. Let's take our coffee and then perhaps I can find someone to show me around."
"Tea!" Exclaimed Eä while turning qround. "You are thinking about tea, Indilwen! I'm almost... 100 % sure of that. Perhaps something from this boring conference stuck anyway." She looked triumphantly at the other.
She made her way to the trays the servants had placed on the tables.

[I think people last night where just a bit zappy and hyper but they were told to go to bed, which was awesomeness on toast for me. I'm sure it won't happen again]
[P.S The below is not canon fact or anything, but I promised I would write about Algernon being alone, and this is what I came up with. It really has nothing to do with anything so you don't need to read it]
The Horseman came downstairs and was about to say "Good morning" when he realised everywhere was strangeley quiet. "Hmm" he said to himself. "I hope nothing bad as happened".
He continued into The Dining Room where it looked like many people had already eaten breakfast. He found a singl sausage on a plate in front of his seat. Pinned to the sausage was a note:
Dear Mr. Headless Horseman/Algernon [s]you who like pink fans[/s] *snort*
Turns out that Tar isn't so much as a film buff, but that she has connections as well. Got us free tickets to the premiere of "101 Ways To Kill Your Enemies", you know, the film of that smash hit novel. Didn't think you'd want to come, knowing you don't like Brad Pitt and he's in it, so you might want to amuse yourselves for a few hours until we get back. If you want anything, ring for the butler.
Kit & Co
P.S A few others didn't want to join us either, but they've decided to explore a nearby village so they won't be bothering you either
"Well!" said Algernon in great indignation. "Well!" he repeated lost for words. "I'm sure I can easily find something to do" he exclaimed. "I am quite capable, thank you very much" he said to no-one in particular.
He noticed out of the corner of his... er... *ahem* ...a tall spindly creature whom he knew to be the butler, passing by.
"You sir!" he cried out.
"That's right sir" replied the butler.
"What's right?" asked The Horseman, confused.
"Yousef" said the butler.
"Me sir?" said The Horseman pointing to himself. "What about me? he asked.
"Nothing sir, I said Yousef sir".
"You sir, sir?" pondered The Horseman. "The fellows mad" thought The Horseman to himself. "Quite potty"
"Nevermind about that" said The Horseman with a careless wave of his hand. "I would like my horse saddled and brought to me in 5 minutes. Do you hear me my good man?"
"Yes, sir" replied The Butler.
"Yousef?" asked The Horseman.
.... Some time later ....
.."And here I am" concluded The Horseman. "In an old house, with a possible murderer and lots of eccentrics, and it is quite sad that this is the most exciting thing that has ever happened to me. Even before I lost my head. Unless of course you would call getting locked in 3 seperate toilets over the course of a year, exciting. " he added. "You know Mr. Bumblebee, if you hadn't got so drunk on pollen, you would have been flying around now, instead here you are, lying flat on your stomach, looking slightly sozzled because you were too greedy, being spoken to by someone who has no head and who is lying under a tree, on this fine autumnal day".
"It's a strange thing about bees, if you'll excuse me" said The Horseman as he inclined his head towards the bee. "But once, a long time ago I accidentally soaked a bee when I was watering my garden. Did you know I had a garden? Oh, you didn't, well it is a wonderful garden and I was watering a flower and I didn't know until it was too late that there was a bee on there. It's a funny thing" he added. "But I'm almost certain every bee since then has tried to harm me." And he chuckled. "It's quite silly really isn't it, I mean here are you and I, in perfect harmo-- where have you gone Mr. Bumblebee? I hope I haven't squas--- AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! You bad bumblebee! Get out of there!" cried The Horseman. "Invitation ONLY thank you very much! Come Eliza" he said, "it just proves you cannot trust anyone these days" he said with a snort.
.... Some more time later ....
CLACK! "Nice shot Algernon". "Well thank you, Algernon" "You're welcome Algernon". CLACK! "Oh, Bravo!! Bravo!" "There's no need to overdo it Algernon" "But that was a perfect shot Algernon, how can you say that?" "Quite easily actually Algernon".
The Horseman sighed and threw down his cue. Talking to oneself was not quite the same as talking to other people. "Billiards was never really my game anyway was it Eliza?" he said to his horse who he brought into the room, seeing as how Kit wasn't there to shout at him. "I wonder how many tables I have ruined?" he closed his eyes as he thought. "Do you remember my telling you about the time the Mayor hosted a ball and we were playing? And those were the days when I rarely hit the ball anyway, and the Mayor was bending down to pick something up by the table, just as I--" Algernon groaned and hid his hand in his hands. "I never did get invited back" he added quietly.
Just then, The Horseman thought he had heard voices. "It can't be Kit and the rest of them, it's too early. Maybe it's the village explorers" he said to himself. The voices were getting louder. The Horseman leapt from his chair and shot out of the door as if someone had shouted BEE and headed straight for the voices.
"Fluffy!" he cried "Indilwen! I am so pleased to see you both! And who is this?" he asked of the stranger. When they had been introuduced he bowed over Ea's hand and said "I am very pleased to make your aquaintance madam".
"I trust all have you have had a pleasant say so far?" and for the first time that day, Algernon felt truly happy.

Indilwen giggled. "Tea! My, you're a very fine mind-reader indeed..." she said, rubbing her temples. "What a time I've had these past two days..."
She turned around at the sound of footsteps, and there stood the Headless Horseman himself! "Why hello there!" she replied warmly. "A pleasant day, indeed..." she answered him, her voice trailing off at the end as she involuntarily began reflecting on the previous night once again.
"Anyway, now," she said, realizing after a brief moment that she had drifted off into her own thoughts, "shall we make our way into the kitchen?"
