No rehearsals for the next few nights. There are only so many times I can listen to the lot of you butcher the lines before I'm driven utterly to distraction.

[Private to Pavi]

Poppet, I know you must be anxious given recent news. Might I provide a little warmth and relief?

[Private note to the Admiral]

Admiral, for my Inmate -- if you cannot provide a heating element with the same security precautions as those in the common room -- it need not be of the same size or make -- then at least provide the following things for his room: more blankets, and carpets on the floor if you can manage, and finally, re-outfit his sleeping area with bed curtains.

Then let me quit.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Absolutely not.

[inhumandog.livejournal.com]

Obviously it would make your life easier. I am not learning anything from this.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

It's not just about learning; it's about occupation.

[wichita-kansas.livejournal.com]

Is there a play or something going on?

[inhumandog.livejournal.com]

But it is boring!

muse is randomly interested wtf :\

[vamp-verona.livejournal.com]

Rehearsals? I could assume, then, that all roles are filled?

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Indeed, there is. Or there would be, if my troupe of miscreants could muster a little passion and perform.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

For some time, actually, though our Blanche Dubois disappeared most unfortunately.

Given the present state of things I would be willing to entertain a worth audition.

Si, of course! The Pavi's room is perhaps warmer than your own, if you would like to come and visit?

I find that a little chill in the air can be good for intensifying the pleasures of human contact, persimmon. One appreciates animal warmth when denied some themselves.

But as it is, I am very much in need of you, a good bottle of wine, and those silk manacles of yours, and I am happy to take them wherever, and however, you deem most pleasing.

...

Your room, then. I will be with you shortly.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Exquisite.

did not get notif ><

[vamp-verona.livejournal.com]

Forgive me for not realizing until now. I find the usual Barge chatter to be an idle amusement.

I would be interested in auditioning, then. I crave something worthwhile to ease the daily boredom.

[wichita-kansas.livejournal.com]

Oh. Do you plan to have a performance, or is this just to pass the time?

[heavenonthemind.livejournal.com]

Rehearsals?

For song or play?

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

There are copies of the play available in the library.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

A play.

[heavenonthemind.livejournal.com]

Which one?

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

One that comes significantly after our times. Titled "A Streetcar Named Desire."

a bit after her time

[vamp-verona.livejournal.com]

What play might you be referring to?

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

It's titled "A Streetcar Named Desire". The part you should study is that of Blanche Dubois. But please give it a thorough read and be certain you understand the character before attempting the audition.

[vamp-verona.livejournal.com]

I shall do so.

[heavenonthemind.livejournal.com]

A streetcar. I've never heard of such a thing.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

I had to find information on it, myself. Think of them as large carriages or wagons, big enough to hold many people, that run without beasts to pull them. Only there are metal "tracks" in the ground that they are carried on, so they only go to certain places. It's for people who live in cities, so they can get from one part to another quickly.

[heavenonthemind.livejournal.com]

They seem incredibly pointless. Why not go by foot?
