Pre-Show OOC Mingle!

[stagemanagers]

Greetings, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to It's Curtains! We hope you're all as excited as we are! You'd better be, because it looks like you might be staying in our lovely, state-of-the-art Opera House for quite a while! The show will be starting tomorrow (10/10) with a mingle log, but before the curtain goes up, why don't we all get to know each other a little better?

You can use this post to introduce yourselves, exchange contact info, start plotting, and maybe scream a little if you want to. Don't forget to friend everyone on Plurk or AIM or whatever you prefer - it'll make things easier when your time comes.

Welcome to the game, everyone. Let's have fun!

Obligatory

Hey everyone! Blank here back at the murder game scene with an actually appropriate character for a game like this for once!

I’m bringing in Seymour Krelborn from Little Shop of Horrors (Specifically the 1986 movie adaptation). For those who haven’t seen/heard of it, Little Shop of Horrors is about this guy, a poor but sweet florist who lives in Skid Row, who finds a strange and interesting plant and becomes rich and famous overnight and nothing bad happens ever. And he certainly does start killing people to keep his demon plant alive.

Still, Seymour is a genuinely nice guy once you get past his murder thing. Although he is incredibly shy, awkward, and unused to people not treating him like dirt/being nice without wanting something out of him, so expect him to be pretty weird around other people for a little while.

His initial canon point is right after “Grow for Me”, the scene where he discovers that Audrey II (the aforementioned demon plant) needs human blood to survive, so Seymour knows that something is weird about the plant, but decides that “drinks human blood” isn’t a good reason to just dump the plant in the trash.

If you want to contact me for plotting stuff, I’m most active at blankblankity but I also have a Discord account that I’m on most nights (Blankblankity #7335)

oh hey friend

[dontfeedplants]

Hey, are you ready to be totally awkward around other people together?

[rockthistown]

Don't worry, you can start making friends by climbing to the top of the tallest building in town and throwing rocks at them!

*Disclaimer: Do not take this advice.

Better than Seymour's deal of "can apparently only befriend people if they have the same level of self-esteem as him" in the musical, so Hime already has that advantage over Seymour.
