A Dance in Vivacissimo for the Velvet Room

Who: EVERYONE
Where: Velvet Room
Summary: The blue door appears and it's time for a little field trip
Warnings: DJ Velvet?

This time, there didn't seem to be a crisis, but nevertheless, the Velvet roomed showed up once again. As usual, policemen and WAND operatives protected the door, the rendezvous point was well guarded.

As they stepped in, the group weren't given much information as to what exactly you were heading into. Unless you've been a Guest before or had visited two times prior, this entire experience will be completely new...and even if you've been here, the experience is still new.



The bar is spacious and large. The place is oddly calming; as if all the troubles of the city have melted away and you're just drifting in the sea. A multitude of blue butterflies are flying on the ceiling overhead.

Now, for some of those who had been here before, there was something different this time.

The lights were mostly out, the dim bar setting made even more evident. The remaining lights, however, pointed to a musical setup. In the back, a single dark figure bouncing his head back and forth, as the sound began to fill your ears. The voice, for those who have heard her speak, sounds like Caroline was doing the background vocal work.

The Aria of the Soul...just served a little differently.

Now the full meaning of the Velvet Bar comes to fruition.

If you can spot Igor in the farthest corner (it's hard to see without the lights) he has...a pair of sunglasses? He seems to be pretty quiet this evening, and instead Caroline is there to great everyone as the music continues to play.

"Welcome to the Velvet Room. My name is Caroline...and this is DJ Velvet, my brother William."

He responds by raising one of his hands in the air and giving a V sign, before going back to mixing.

"This place exists between mind and matter... A room for those who gave forged a contract... For those who are here for the first time, you now must know that in awakening to the power of Persona granted to you by Philemon, you are bound to a contract. You are all now guests of the Velvet Room. You all have the ability to hold multiple Personas and wield their powers...a wildcard ability. However the rules of this world are rather...unique."

Her tone of voice was clearly much better than the previous two times. Caroline was gaining, slowly a bit more assurance in herself. She also seemed much more relaxed with William around.

"As you continue to live here longer and aid this ailing world, the connection and bonds you forge will reinforce your Destiny String, and allow you to truly unlock your full potential. As stipulated by the contact, we will aid you to the best of our abilities. I hope you find your stay tonight enjoyable."

Caroline then goes behind the bar and awaits for those who might wish to talk with her. Or perhaps you'd like to go see William first?

[OOC : Welcome to the Velvet Room. There but a few instructions here:
▶ Go to the [PERSONA UPDATE LIST] and fill out the information for your character.
▶ To get a new Persona, you go to [HERE] (althought the post is still in migration, you can find the old list [HERE]) and pick a public persona, then fill out a request [HERE]. Remember you cannot get persona that belongs to someone else! You can request a Persona (or two if you are a previous Persona user) until the 29th of November.
▶ This time, requests can be given from either Caroline OR William [HERE] and remember you only get one request per month. You can request a Quest until the 29th of November, or wait until next month. You can only as one request and it can be either Caroline or William.
▶ You can talk with Igor, Caroline, William, hang around, have a drink (what is in that drink anyway?) or just talk between yourselves.

"Wow. This place has got some nightlife...," Rise observed, listening happily to the background music. Not exactly her taste, but the singing and the mixing were both really impressive, and she couldn't help but enjoy the melody itself.

Meanwhile, though, she was thinking on what Caroline was saying about multiple Personas. Did that mean everyone here was like...

Rise visibly raised a hand, as if she was in class. And as if she ever voluntarily raised her hand in class. "Excuse me! If we can have multiple Personas, what does that mean if our regular Personas can't...well, fight? Could we also get a Persona that's more..."

She pantomimed an awkward mix of Chie kicking something and Yosuke trying to stab something at the same time, apparently shorthand for action.

The DJ looked up enough to raise a hand at Rise too, giving a thumbs up as his Helmet flashed her an answer.

Okay, that was awesome. In a house electronica sort of way.

The answer also meant a great way to avoid getting kidnapped and thrown in a TV yet again, and so she hurried off toward the weird creepy guy in the corner to -- wait.

"Uh, anyone around here know how getting another Persona works?"

Don't worry, DJ Velvet was here to help! With a flick of his hand, a card appeared and he gave it to her.



If she turned it around, it would read:

"Master Igor will aid you."

"Of course he will," she said. Well, she wasn't one to judge on appearance. Although maybe she should go check with Yu first. Just in case.
djvelvet: (( ´・ω・`))

Good for you Rise, that's the spirit! He gives you an encouraging thumbs up. But now that you had William's attention, he was going to snap his fingers one more and give her a new card.

[personal profile] celebrity_commentator 2012-11-22 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
"Uh..."

William, why on Earth did you have a card printed to say that? Or...wait, was this some kind of magic trick?

"Blonde?" she guessed, looking at Caroline. She's said they were siblings, right?

Maybe it was just that...or maybe William was just mischievous. Regardless, he popped up another card with a hand flourish.

As you wish.

And with another movements of his hands, he passed them in front of his head a few times, but as Rise kept looking, suddenly his helmet just wasn't there anymore.

And William's hair was blonde. He gave her a small smile and then an exaggerated bow.

[personal profile] celebrity_commentator 2012-11-23 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
Well that was quite a look. She gives her own smile and a small bit of applause in return.

"Nice trick," she said, genuinely enthused. "Do I get anything for guessing right?"
djvelvetingold: (Card Eyes Open)

[personal profile] djvelvetingold 2012-11-26 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
With a grin, he gave a quiet laugh and ran a hand into his hair, before pulling out and giving her another card.

"What would you like?"
celebrity_commentator: (perky)

[personal profile] celebrity_commentator 2012-11-28 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
"Well, I don't know," she said, playfully. "I guess I could use a favor from a DJ, though."
djvelvetingold: (Grin Eyes Closed)

[personal profile] djvelvetingold 2012-12-01 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Another card, this time brought out with the snap of his hand.

You are a singer.
celebrity_commentator: (see?)

[personal profile] celebrity_commentator 2012-12-01 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm an idol," she corrected, with winning confidence in that title she barely had to fake anymore.
djvelvetingold: (Tch Eyes Open)

[personal profile] djvelvetingold 2012-12-07 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
Is there a difference?

It was an honest question, from someone giving her mysterious cards out of nowhere every time he 'spoke'. William was a resident of the Velvet Room, after all. Singers, Lipsinkers and Idols were all the same to him.

"An idol is a personality, not just a singer or an actress...although she's usually both of those, too," she said, quoting from what she'd learned in her early days. "Risette - that's my idol name - was a role I played everywhere I went, not just on stage. That's uh...part of why I'm on a break from doing that right now."
