A, Garden Level - Autumn Celebrations!
[It may be November in the real world but when you're dead time is fake! So this week/month GARDENFEST is happening...........aka a bootleg mishmash of Oktoberfest and an Xmas Market. In general: PARTY TIME.

Drinks! Foods! Bad singing!! Drunkenly built gingerbread houses! You're thrown in a festive identity clash of imps and cherubs in the garden playing music that doesn't match or shoving drinks at you. Don't worry, if you don't want a mug of beer, it might just be gingerale! Anyway sorry you died but PARTY PARTY JOIN US JOIN US--]


B, Hell Level: ICE to meet you!
[Down at the HellRaiser hotel, the hellish amenities await your every need, but spooky season is over. Aside from the usual, er, allure of Hell, it also seems to be slowly freezing over. Ruh roh. It's not much now, but occasionally you may be hit by a teeny tiny icicle as you explore, awww. Other times it's a whole fucking STALACTITE crashes down on you. Better dodge or hope someone pushes you out the way!! Look out for slick sidewalks too!

Otherwise, hey have some fun in Hell!! Go to a club, get some drugs, go to a casino, win and get mugged!! Ever have a drink made out of literal MAGMA? Go on, try it!! Slaps hell's cobbled brimstone you can fit so much chaos down here!]


C, Heaven Level: Spice, spice, baby.
[Heaven-side, the cherubs are ready to welcome you and give you the VIP treatment!! Massages! Manipedis! Lavish outfits and attention! You can raise your hand and just get a fucking cat sat on your lap! Truly, this is bliss!!

Oh, but it's also cozy season in Heaven! So along with the best fits for the chillier weather, There are an assortment of beverages being offered by angels for you to sample (CW Mind Manipulation):

Apple Spiced Latte- Tasty and earthy! But you suddenly feel more subservient.
Cranberry Spiced Latte- A bit tart but it works. This might make you sassier than usual.
Stuffing Spiced Latte- There is no effect. Why would you drink this you monster.

For the TDM you can find small cherub-run kiosks with these drinks on any level you prefer! If that's not your cuppa joe, feel free to explore the beauty of Heaven per usual! The beach! Boardwalk! All the cafes!! Whatever heaven should have, you can likely find it.]

C. was gonna hit you up with leona first but I couldn't resist...

[outrageon]

[Sorry, Vil, but the very furry very tall person you've just addressed doesn't turn around to see you as much as she swings her head around like an owl, looking Vil up and down with an intense glare.

...Still, it evens out real quick when she puts on a too sweet smile.]

Oh em gee! I was just looking for the right opinion to help me choose!

[she spins her body around to match the rotation of her head and on doll-like heels she clops right over, sitting on the arm of Vil's chair and not taking up very much space doing so. Holding up two different pairs of brightly colored, flashy earrings to her mink ears and green hair, Velvet asks;]

What do you think? Purple or pink?

[fairestqueen]

[...huh. A little unnerving, but it isn't as if Vil hasn't met his share of oddities, including inhuman ones. And he is, of course, used to staying quite composed in nearly any circumstance.

So he just smiles back at her and inspects the earrings carefully.]

Naturally, it depends on what you're planning to wear them with. The purple is quite striking against your hair, though admittedly I have a fondness for purple.

[They aren't quite Vil's style, but it's clear she's not really aiming for the elegant look he prefers.]

Are they for a special occasion?

[outrageon]

[A bright, albeit fake, laugh. Really, she's as fake as she is plastic, which... is why this whole little act probably isn't going to work on Vil much. but she carries on regardless.]

Of course! They're for me. I'm the special occasion.

[She does sound... too pleased with herself.]

I'm Velvet. As in, of superstars Velvet and Veneer.

[Looking over the earrings again, and not at Vil, she adds—]

It's so nice to meet a newcomer with some style around here, hm?

[fairestqueen]

[She clearly expects to be recognized, with how she speaks of herself, but Vil hasn't got the slightest idea who she is. Or what she is, really, which kind of goes hand-in-hand. But this is a new... world? Or something of the sort, at least. No sense in alienating anyone who might be someone, so Vil keeps his work face on.

Smile, stay cool, and never look anything less than perfect.]

Indeed. It's a pleasure to speak to someone who takes their own presentation seriously.

[That's true, at least, even if Vil can't say he personally loves her style.]

Velvet and Veneer... I'm new around here, so I'm afraid I'm not familiar. Are you an actress?

[outrageon]

[Either Velvet can tell he's hesitant or she expects him to be and sticks to her own narrative— likely the latter. She smiles like a fox either way.]

Oh, don't worry. I wouldn't expect a human to know Rageon stars.

[She's just being a bitch on purpose! Yaaay. She might be a little less bold if she knew Vil was everything she wanted to be (aside from the whole hard-work bit, ew), but since she's unfamiliar herself, she's sizing him up instead. A potential ally, a potential enemy... and if an enemy, all the more important to keep track of.

And anyway, that word, Rageon? Might not even sound like much of a descriptor, considering it's pronounced just like Ragin'.]

We're singers, of course, but acting could always be on the list. Then again, the jobs around here are.... parrrrrrticular.

[Look, she wants to watch Hellanovelas, not act in them. She continues, sticky-sweet—]

Buuut I'm assuming you're asking because you're an actor, hm? That would explain why you don't look even half as miserable as the rest of these losers.

[Judging by the horns on her head, 'these losers' might be, you know, the angels. oops.]

[fairestqueen]

[Vil's more amused than bothered by her attitude. He's been in show business for awhile, after all - he's very familiar with up-and-coming personalities with the same sort of personality. His experience tells him it's smarter to be even-tempered and avoid calling anyone out... at least in public.

Vil is very capable of being a bitch, after all.

But he has a brand to uphold, and if eyes are on him, he'll stay cool and above it all. No use making himself look bad, not when people are always ready to assume he's the worst.]

I didn't even know there were jobs around here.

[And if there are... well, he'll have to be even more careful about his presentation. At least, if he intends to work.]

But thank you. I find that looking miserable really only reflects poorly on oneself.

[A practiced smile.]

I'm Vil Schoenheit. I suppose since I haven't heard of you, you haven't heard of me - but if you saw my follower count on Magicam, you'd understand how rare that is.
