Prismatica RP

I would ask you to once again indulge my curiosity. This world we are all in is vastly different from where I was calling home before I was drawn here. It is likely the same for the majority of you. My previous home was one I selected for the express purpose of distancing myself from the rapidly developing technology of the human world. The bright lights, the cities that never truly slept, they did not appeal to me in the slightest. The night was supposed to belong to me, after all, and humanity had long since encroached on my domain.

[Said entirely without arrogance in her voice, as if it was so common sense she need not even explain herself.]

Furthermore, there was little that science could do that sorcery could not simply do better. I suppose the appeal is that not everyone has the capability to be a great magic-user, but any simpleton can push a button. But I am going off track. The question I have to ask of you is actually quite simple. For those of you who came from a lower technology world, do you prefer the garish lights and sprawling cityscape you find yourself in now? I would hear your reasons for your response, if you would be so kind. As the one asking the question, I shall answer first. I much prefer my lakeside home to what this city has to offer. Peace barely exists here.

[A petite woman with bat wings on her back is looking awfully annoyed. At least she isn't actually angry at anything this time.]

So, it seems it is that time of year again. The time of year where everyone dresses in outlandish outfits.

[And spirits do terrible things but she is either unaware of the problems some people are facing or just doesn't care. SHE isn't about to become a ghost, after all, she's already among the undead.]

I have never had the chance to ask this of so many people before, so I shall do so now. What purpose does this celebration serve? Why dress in odd outfits and demand confectionery treats from strangers? I understand the purpose of celebrations, of course, but this is just so impossible for me to understand. It seems to have no real connection with All Hallows Eve at all. But what really bothers me the most is why are the vampire costumes always so terrible? I do not believe I have even seen a single one that had wings. I understand wishing to look like a vampire, but without wings you merely look like a fraud.

[Clearly she doesn't know, or care, that her having wings actually makes HER the different one, not the other way around.]

NOTE: Sakuya and Remilia arrived together. This post was written by both muns.

The video flicked on showing the face of a young woman with blue eyes in a maid outfit a little bit too close to the camera. She blinked several times and glanced back over her shoulder once and then back to the camera.

“My Lady. I believe it is working.” And she backed off a little bit, holding it up to reveal the two new faces.

The lady in question turns out to be a rather petite woman with short blue hair and red eyes. The leathery bat-like wings on her back mark her as decidedly not human. The fangs that are visible when she opens her mouth to speak give a large hint as to what manner of being she may be. “I must say, I am rather impressed. To summon me to this world against my will is praiseworthy. I cannot say I know of anyone capable of doing so. I must thank whatever force did so for the kindness of bringing along my Sakuya, as well. She would be ever so lonely without me.” And Remilia herself might have found life more difficult, but that remains unsaid.

The maid in question shifted a little bit as she was addressed, bowing her head in acknowledgement. She didn’t speak though, not wanting to interrupt Remilia’s speech.

“But perhaps I should introduce myself properly. I am the Lady Remilia Scarlet, and while the finery I normally surround myself with did not have the courtesy to make the trip with me, I have little doubt I shall be able to replace it in time with whatever passes as such in this world. Even without the trappings of my mansion, however, I am still a lady and will be treated as such. If you lack the manners to do so, do not waste my time. I do not enjoy having my time wasted.” She gestures behind her. “This is my personal maid, Sakuya Izayoi. An insult against her is one against me, and I do not tolerate insults. Sakuya, introduce yourself.”

Sakuya gave another small bow. “Greetings. My name is Sakuya Izayoi, head maid of the Scarlet Devil Mansion bound in service to the great vampire Remilia Scarlet. I will be serving her to the best of my ability while we are here. As such any information that can be provided will be of great use to us both.”
