[01: Video] Introduction to Madness

[sicksadlife]

[She's the definition of plain, down to the clothes that do nothing for her figure and the unstylish glasses. Her voice is an absolute monotone with no inflection save for emphasis on a specific word or two.]

I'm pretty sure I didn't sign for this, and I'm pretty sure my parents can't sign for it now that I'm eighteen. [Mom definitely wouldn't

[Obviously he's misunderstanding this.] Actually, there's really not a lot of clothes here... it's kind of a desolate wasteland, so cozy white coats are going to be pretty scarce, I'll bet.

[sicksadlife]

[Is he serious? He seems to be serious.]

Look. Just tell me what's going on here, and the nearest way home. [It'd be too convenient to hope for Mom's cell phone to be around, wouldn't it?]

[angle_on_it]

Oh, you're new, okay, I get it.

Um... well, this is Adstringendum and there's really no way home that anyone knows of. We're all from different places and pretty much no one knows how we got here or why we're here. [He winces.] Sorry to have to break it to you, but at least you know now and you can just... start moving on with your life. [Because that's soooooo easy, right?]

[sicksadlife]

I fell asleep watching some horror movie, didn't I? And this is all a dream, which means my ruby slippers should be in the mail any moment to let me click my heels together and go no place like home.

[feel_nevermore]

None of us did sign for this, if that's any consolation to you.

Also I'm afraid there's no cafeteria here.

[sicksadlife]

Great. Now how am I going to get my daily quota of questionable nutrition?

[Video]

[feel_nevermore]

[Raven smirks a bit at that.] Depends on what qualifies as "questionable nutrition" for you. There's no junk food but I guess you've never heard of most of the creatures we have to feed off here.

[sicksadlife]

I draw the line at eating dragon meat. I can't imagine that's any good for the digestion.

[supermistfrog]

[Have a green-haired guy that's just as monotone and blankface as you.]

It's actually an insane asylum. Nobody else knows except you and I. Enjoy your hallucinations.

[sicksadlife]

I had better padded walls in my room. When are those being installed here?

[Video]

[supermistfrog]

When the new set of doctors come in.

Look at the buildings around you. Their walls are so comfy if you lean against them right now, though.

[sicksadlife]

The buildings around me look like the aftermath of some natural disaster.

[sicksadlife]

[A kid. With a tattoo on his head. And bald.

... She has a very active imagination, doesn't she?]

These coats have really long sleeves, too. Maybe I should try to stay out of them after all.

[sicksadlife]

I'm Daria. I'm the new one here.

It is no madness, Lady. The fantastical circumstances are indeed true.

If you do indeed require a coat of some sort, there is an indoor marketplace in the northwestern quarter of the city, but I fear much will have been spoiled by the recent rains and flooding. By winter, many of us should have our wool carded and spun, and hopefully will have knitted or woven warm clothing. Perhaps in a few months, a trade may be arranged, although I know not if any coat would be white as you request. The sheep who gave us the wool were not of the usual variety.

[Video] omg Juliet. XD Ilu for this ridiculously

[sicksadlife]

And you must be a refugee from Ye Old Homespun Times.

[Then again, she's probably as crazy as anyone else here. And Juliet seems nice and helpful at least.]

[Video]

[capuletnomore]

I am from Verona, in the year 149X.

[She curtsies and smiles.]

I am Juliet Capulet. And you, Lady?

[Video]

[sicksadlife]

[Ok, this is a whole new can of crazy. Right.]

Boy have I got a lot to tell you. Mostly from history cla-

[She cuts off mid-sentence. Alright, this girl thinks she's Juliet Capulet?]

Are you about to tell me you live in Verona?
