[Midnight Hotel] Fourth-wall catch-all; 15-30 April 2016
Characters: Anyone, everyone.
Date: 15-30th April, 2016 (2017 in-game).
Location: The Midnight Hotel.
Situation: It’s the fourth-wall event and there’s a sudden influx of patrons! Feel free to use this post for anything that happens within the Midnight Hotel during the two weeks of the fourth-wall event, using the subject header to label specific rooms or for specific people. Regulars should feel free to continue using the non-fourth-wall Hotel post for pre-fourth-wall threads! See also the OOC note at the bottom.
Warnings/Rating: Mark your threads if content warnings become applicable, please!
Once more, it seems, the Dreaming has seen fit to lure in temporary residents. Luckily, the Hotel and its kedanese staff have done this before -- even accounting for the fact that it isn't exactly usual. If this goes on, they may start to predict the event!
It takes a day or so to sort things out, but once sorted the Hotel breaks out the same sleeping-bags as they had last time, and set aside as many areas of the common-room and even the lobby as sleeping areas. Any spare bed-rooms are also filled to the brim, though there aren't many of those these days.
The Hotel, like some of the other buildings around Keeliai, displays some occasional damage of the explosion-that-wasn't; in fact, seems to show it more obviously than most other places. Mostly it's cracks in frames or the smell of smoke in random areas, or some loose shingles; the worst that happens is the plumbing may be a bit unreliable until the wards can right themselves.
As before, Mr Shudder lets Foreigners without a soul-gem stay for free, as long as they follow the rules--which they are told upon entry. (Most notably, that's the 'no violence' rule.) Luckily, the new walk-in restaurant function means there's plenty to eat for everyone, and the cooking staff are on overtime this fortnight to make sure everyone is provided for.
Strangely, Mr Shudder himself is scarce for these two weeks. He does drop by in the evenings to make sure things are progressing well, but if anyone asks all he'll say is that some old friends have arrived and he and Erskine are helping them out elsewhere in the city. Anton will be around if anything untoward happens--but for the most part management is performed either by Anton's kedanese staff, or by Klaus von Reinherz.
[ooc: The Midnight Hotel’s status page is available here, with the rules at the top and ongoing status at the bottom. PLEASE PM ME IF YOUR CHARACTER WILL PERFORM A VIOLENT ACT. The Hotel is a neutral-zone and the proprietor is very strict as to acts of violence, and it will receive a response.
It will not be necessary for fourth-wall characters to officially check into the Hotel during the event.]

[So he approaches.]
Miss Bisi?
no subject
[Oh look, a distraction. How fortuitous. Vader isn't keen on admitting to the whole getting chopped to pieces and set on fire thing. It's a bit embarrassing.]
[Instead, he turns his attention to the man. This must be the 'Anton'. Bisi mentioned.]
no subject
no subject
Lord Vader is fine.
[it's less formal.]
no subject
Welcome to the Midnight Hotel, Lord Vader. Miss Bisi has told me you require a room which can be sealed and pressurised, is that correct?
[Best get things straight, after all.]
no subject
That is correct.
Bisi has been most helpful, she serves you well.
no subject
[Which is far better than serving him well, in his opinion.]
We have one room which may suffice, with some changes in the wards; may I assume that the room need not be strictly disinfected? A quarantine environment will likely not be possible in the short time we have.
no subject
It will suffice.
[Beggars can't be choosers and Vader can't stay trapped behind his mask indefinitely. It starts to feel claustrophobic and irritating.]
no subject
[Luckily, this particular room doesn't have a window, which means the door needs the most maintenance.]
Do you require the furniture to be of any specific materials, or otherwise?
[In case the man is in a suit to avoid hypoallergenic reactions of some kind.]
no subject
Only that it is solidly built.
[All that metal makes him heavier than he looks.
no subject
[Anton firmly believes in furniture that lasts. Or at least is difficult to damage, given what occasionally happens in the Hotel.]
Please feel free to make use of the public amenities until I return.
[He bows again and turns to make his way upstairs.]
no subject
I look forward to seeing what you can provide.
[He'll return to his meditation. The Force will guide him on what to do next.]
