R3 Viewing Party!

[grimgrinningghosts]

[It’s another average, but boring morning in the mansion when suddenly voices start coming from Rod’s room again. Thankfully, the room is locked and it appears that he isn’t trapped inside his own body (luckily for everyone it appears that Oswald finished Rod’s new body so that most likely won’t happen again).

However, true to the Hatbox Ghost’s word, it seems like the new round has started and everyone in the Haunted Mansion has a front row seat to watching the torture unfold. This time you are no longer in the comfort of someone who has any idea of how to get them out.

… There sure are a lot of people you might recognize this time around, huh?]

Comments

[hallotween]

... I bet he's cute, in his real form!

[shes helping]

[lusito]

... Huh. Isn't that something.

[To think that Randy was just playing hard to get this whole time.]

[keyofimagination]

[He's genuinely not sure if Marnie is trying to be nice for once.]

I'm afraid the part I'm worried about isn't whether he's cute or not.

[keyofimagination]

[He runs a hand through his hair.]

It's times like these where I'm glad that I'm not in the market for dating right now.

[hallotween]

What else... matters?

[keyofimagination]

[. . .]

The very high probability that Randall would murder me if given the chance?

[Remember the trial a few months ago where he tried to convince you guys to sentence him to death?]

[hallotween]

I mean, if you're gonna be that picky, you'll never find a guy here.

[keyofimagination]

Marnie, it deeply concerns me that "a man who won't attempt to murder me at any point" is too lofty of a requirement for a partner.

[lusito]

Really?

[dramatic sigh]

And here I was thinking that I had a chance. Alas, what a shame.

[... Is he joking.]

[hallotween]

It is here! Your other options are basically... Donald, maybe?

[keyofimagination]

[Rod just kind of... stares at Joshua a bit, trying to see if he was joking or not.]

Maybe once this is all over I'll think about "getting back in the game", as it were. Thanks to Randy here I'm not sure if dating is the best option for me right now.

[keyofimagination]

I appreciate your attempt, Marnie, but I'm really not interested in dating right now, for many reasons.

[hallotween]

I know. You're still in mourning for your jerk boyfriend.

[she. sounds sympathetic?]

Once we save everyone, we'll have Sally set you up with somebody, okay? She's good at that sorta stuff.

[lusito]

Hmm. That's fair, I suppose.

[They really should focus on getting everyone out of this place first, we guess...]

[stenchus_rodentus]

I'm not fond of the possibility of you courting my...human persona.

[WHY IS THIS RANDY TORMENTING HIM WITH BASIL DEETS.]

[keyofimagination]

I can tell you right now that I have no interest in dating that... person, no matter how "gay for me" he is.

[Suck it Ratigan.]

[keyofimagination]

[He at least doesn't make a comment about how Walt "wasn't his boyfriend" this time.]

That... really means a lot to me actually. Although after Rocket, I'm scared that she will set me up with anyone I have a conversation with.

[He actually seems to be joking for once.]

[stenchus_rodentus]

You shouldn't bother setting your sights too high if I were you.

Settling on someone like that John fellow may be more your level~

[keyofimagination]

First of all John is married, and second of all I don't know why you're phrasing it like dating someone like John is somehow a step down from Randy.

[Like, John is basically like his dad, but he's not a bad catch by any means.]

[keyofimagination]

You seriously can't be thinking about dating in a situation like this, can you?

[lusito]

"In a situation like this"? No, but I'm also not blind, Rod.

[We can acknowledge that someone is good-looking regardless, okay.]

Trial Junk

[keyofimagination]

[Rod audibly groans at Randy's little speech there.]

I wish Randall would just stop mentioning me here...

[tadaishi]

I think I did a better impersonation of you.

[Someone might have been hanging around Joshua too much too lately.]

[toogoodforhim]

[LeFou tenses like he’s expecting a strike when Gaston snaps, but otherwise he watches just as quietly as he has been for a while, holding his hook necklace in his hands and running his fingers over it nervously like a rosary.]

[keyofimagination]

I feel like most people here could do a better impression of me.

Regardless, I don't know if Randy is trying to get a reaction out of me or not and it bothers me.
