October Masquerade!
October Masquerade!
The letter arrives past midnight, when everyone is asleep. One streetlight flickers as the letter is placed carefully under your door. You don't notice. You're sleeping too. But you'll wake up soon enough and see the evenlope in your kitchen, and, of course, you'll open it:
You are invited to a masquerade! You can wear a costume or not, and, of course, a mask. Not like a COVID-19 mask. The other kind. What's it called? Well, you know what I mean. The kind you'd wear to a masquerade. Thanks, hope to see you there!
Well, that was informal. But exciting. You fill out the form:
Name (make up a name, like in an SI, not your real CB name, please):
Pronouns:
What're you wearing to the masquerade:
Are your bringing any food or drinks and what are they?:
Anything else:
So yeah, I'm doing a masquerade! Masquerades are mixes of SIs and CB balls/parties. The party will start on October 7th, you may not make guesses on who people are until then. Here is my form:
Name: Nightingale
Pronouns: she/her
What're you wearing to the masquerade: I'm wearing a midnight-black dress with a hemline and white sandals with small black gemstones on them. My hair is in a low-ish bun with braids wrapped around it, and my mask is white with black gemstones as well.
Are you bringing any food?: Well, my manshion has waiters, aka AEs who I made dress up in masks and carry around food trays. You can try to coax them to give them clues as to who I am, but I will not be making their voices like this or this or anything, they'll just talk normally.
The party will take place at my manshion (Midnight Manshion), mostly downstairs but the upstairs is open to visitors too. Anyone can join in during the party, don't worry if you're late. Have fun!

"Mmm... I don't know. Random guess. Thank you! Yours is beautiful too, I love the necklace."

"Thank you! Oh, by the way, if you see the host, please tell me. I have a gift for them," I say to Mithriel. "I have also been wondering why everyone comes to talk to us first instead of the host. I don't really mind though."

"I'm not sure, I just saw Nightingale but I don't know where she is now... Yeah, it is kind of weird, but also nice, you know?"

Oh dear. My poor overworked brain seems to have forgotten about this.
Nevertheless, here I make my appearance.

I am, of course, fashionabley late, as per usual. I hurry into the mansion, my heels clicking against the marble floor.
"Hello!" I say to the closest person.

"Yes! I absolutely love it! What about you? Do you like it?" I ask Midnight. "I love your outfit!"

Glass has left the group of guests without giving them any sliders. I sigh. If only I could've gotten a more professional waiter for my masquerade! Well, I may as well go greet them myself, I decide. I haven't met most of those people yet.
As I walk over towards the group, including Mithriel and Rosewood and a bunch of other people (it's gotten too crowed to see them all), I notice Midnight and Kina talking about Minecraft. Oh good, I had a feeling those two would bond over that game. Wonder if they could tell me how to find the Ender Dragon later?
"Hey, Midnight!" I shout. "Are you Emekittycon Kitten?"
Then I walk over towards Rosewood and Mithriel, since I heard Rosewood looking for me. "Hello! I'm Nightingale, the host. I love your dress, Rosewood! Welcome to the party."
(October 13, 2021 - 5:50 pm)
I mixed Rosewood and Kina up! Sorry, I walked towards Kina and Midnight.

"Nightingale! I was hoping to see you!" I say. I give Nightingale the box of chocolates I brought. "This is a thank you gift for inviting me."
(October 14, 2021 - 12:14 pm)
I look from my convo with Kina, eyes wide, directly at Nightingale.
"How did ya know?! Seriously, I GOTTA check what I'm sayin' before I actually SAY it!" I said.
"It's ok if I stay a while longer, right?" I ask.

I walk in, and wow, this place is amazing. I am in my most outgoing of moods, so I walk to someone who seems to be alone. "Hi, I'm Dreamless, what's your name and how are you?"
(October 13, 2021 - 5:56 pm)
Ah, so many new people! I think excitedly. So many mysteries! I love problem solving as well as meeting people. I can't wait to find out who they are under their masks.
A clue because I ✨felt like it✨: I've joined the Mitsurin City solo write.
