Dinner date time later this evening, if you're free! What do you feel like having?

fuck yeah! i'm free

idk tho i'm good for whatever
anything you don't like?
i don't need anything fancy i could go for steak or something like pizza
I'm not picky

Steak alfredo pizza is pretty good. Could get that and a traditional red sauce one? So long as you like alfredo sauce those two should hit the spot! I am also not picky and am willing to try anything at least once.

never tried it but it sounds good
lets go for it
and i love alfredo so that works just fine

I think you're in for a treat tonight, then! I'll swing by in like an hour or two? Just gotta finish some stuff up.

sure thing
looking forward to it
i'll see you when i see you

Same. See you in a bit.

[ Forte will get a text about ten minutes before there's a knock at Unholy Disorder's cabin door from Sam saying he is
is heading over. ]

[He was already expecting Sam, so it doesn't take long for him to get the door, already waiting nearby. Opening it up, he leans against the frame.]

Oh, what a surprise. Fancy seeing you here.

Edited 2024-12-03 02:19 (UTC)

Aha, what a coincidence~! I was just thinking about you.

I do that to people. Stick in their mind like an earworm that they can't get rid of, playing on repeat.

[He opens the door wide to allow him inside.]

Come on in.

Must be that charming personality of yours.

[ Sam will accept the invitation to come in, thank you! He's actually dressed down for this occasion and not in Cirrus attire. He figured it would be weird to wear a suit to dinner with someone who was not also dressed up. ]

How's your day been?

You got me. You know me, ever the charmer.

[For his part, Forte is dressed nicely, though still casual-- no suits unless he absolutely has to. It is undeniably within the fashion of the Unholy Disorder.]

Not bad. I've been finishing up my work on the songs for the art festival. I've got three to do, so I've been kinda observed in that. Aside from a little break the other day to try and get some coins for the kids.

Oh, nice. Is that soon?

[ going to take a seat on the couch in the lounge area if it's okay, humming. ]

Oh yeah, the carnival? I didn't really do much there. Was it a good change of pace?

Want anything to drink?

[He's moving to the kitchen area while Sam gets comfortable on the couch.]

And yeah, it should be in the next couple of days. The carnival was... fine I guess.

Appreciate it, thanks. Whatever you're having or the first thing you got around would be great. [ he is clearly not picky about his beverage. ]

I'll make note to attend. [ a thoughtful pause at the commentary about the carnival. ] Something happen?

Here. Catch-

[He tosses a water bottle at him from inside the kitchen. When he walks back, though, he's holding two cups and a bottle.]

Weaver didn't really hide his alcohol stash all that well. So guess whose it is now. ♪

[Forte's goes about pouring himself a glass.]

Anyway, it wasn't bad. I just hate participating in their shit, you know? One day everyone's getting murdered, and in the next, there's a carnival? As though it makes up for anything.

[He takes a seat across from him.]

The kids have been pretty stressed and scared, though. So I wanted to get a few coins for that family room upgrade. Might at least distract them for a bit.

[ catches, thank you, sir.

Sam chuckles at the comment about the alcohol.

He becomes more serious when he replies to the comment about the carnival, though, nodding even as he opens the water bottle to take a sip. ]

Mm... yeah, it seemed like that was exactly what was expected, too, with how the one that announced it said "a break" was "needed." I'm actually feeling like I missed a ton of important information in the five days I was gone, and not just regarding performances.

But even with that information, I'm sure nothing makes any better sense than without it. Some members of Cirrus told me to not try and think about their angle, but performances and murder don't really connect to me so easily. If there's no point to all this expect sick entertainment for them, that'sone thing. But the Showmaster doesn't seem to be framing it that way. Being murdered in her stories was one thing, but these weird social experiments between the Families by the producers... I'm really not sure what the angle is. They don't tell much of a story.

Why would the Showmaster hire them to contribute to her stage if they aren't facilitating the goal of her stage performances?

I don't know that I have anything I could fill you in on, either. I've tried talking to the Ticketmaster about things before. I think we can trust her more than the others, but even she admitted to me she's using us all for her own ends.

[He takes a sip before rubbing the back of his neck.]

Maybe it's important to get the families interacting for whatever it is the Showmaster is doing? She's said we're the actors and the audience. And these social games are kind of like performances...

If we're all interacting, it still switches up the dynamics between us all. We're still doing something. Even if I don't know what the purpose is for.

Can't they do that without murder? Compared to what I understand of the Doctor's performance, the Dame's made far more sense to have the murder parts in it.

I don't know. That sick fuck just wanted to see people get hurt I think. He almost seemed disappointed when our group canceled each other out.

Ah. So one of those kinds of bastards.

I could be wrong... I don't know. He seemed like he was bored and wanted some entertainment, though.

He had been willing to give me a weapon to go up against him with.

Go up against him? She must be enhancing these producers I can't believe these people all have the ability to fight and send themselves normally when the majority of the people in the families don't.

You said he was disappointed when you cancelled each other out?

Yeah, did you hear about it at all? The performance... game. Whatever you want to call it, was Wed, Bed, Behead.

The families were split up into two groups of four. The Unholy Disorder, Siren's Melodies, Forge and Sunsign were all one group. Eonia, Cirrus, Acidia, and the Holy Order were the other group.

Each family had to pick which one they would wed, bed, or behead. And each one of those carried a punishment worse than the last. Behead meaning that you died.

[He leans back against the couch. The game seriously sucked. Who even thinks up something as twisted as that?]

. . . I tried to guess how I assumed each other family would vote in relationship to the Unholy Disorder. I knew that Forge had the least amount of connections with us, and so they were likely to send Behead our way. And I knew that Siren's would choose to protect Forge, so they would send them Wed, but probably not give us the worst option. And Sunsign... I just hoped and prayed for the best, honestly. But I thought they were unlikely to behead us due to the children.

[He runs a hand through his hair.]

I guessed right. And so did all of the other families in our group. Miraculously, by sending the same punishment to each other, we all managed to cancel them out. But that wasn't the same for the other group.
