It's getting lighter
Chatterbox: Pudding's Place
It's getting lighter
It's getting lighter outside. You know because you've seen how dark it was before. You haven't slept well this night. Oh well, you think to yourself, and even then your thoughts are blurred. Slowly, you crawl out of bed, running numb fingers through your tangled hair. You squint into the mirror, trying to make yourself presentable. A flicker of movement in the corner of your eye, somewhere behind you, reflected in the mirror. You turn, eyes wide, and your foot nudges a small box. You pick it up, curious but cautious. Must be another ski lodge. Let's see, do I want to die soon? You decide Not especially, but since you're a CBer and you know you'll come back to life anyway you open the box. Inside, a note nestles comfotably with something that looks like a chisle and a needle had a child. You gently pick up the note.
Dearest CBer,
I've heard that recently you haven't been sleeping well. (You unconsciously nod in agreement) Let's fix that. Come to my Rejuvination Rest-house, and I'll make sure you feel better. Please fill out this form:

You don't need to bring anything unless you want to. All will be provided. Once you fill out the form, please wrap it around the pick (Oh, a pick.) and break your mirror. See you soon, friend!
You shrug, grab a writing utensil, and fill out the form. Then, as instructed, you wrap it around the pick and plunge the sharp end into the mirror's reflective surface. Instead of shattering as expected, it ripples like water and gushes to the bottom of the mirror frame, disappearing like it was drained. To tired to think about it hard, you look through the frame. Beyond, you see a circular room filled with smooth-leafed vines and steam. The steam curls through the portal, beckoning you with its comforting warmth and slightly floral scent.

I'm kind of sarcastic but I try not to be mean, mostly pretty chill, a very quick temper that burns out just as fast, either forgetful or I remember everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, very much a procrastinator, but a procrastinator who will worry about procrastinating whilst actually do so.
Five 'Likes': All things litchi flavored, music, books, plants (mainly cactuses because I can at least keep those alive), very cozy turtlenecks

DAY ONE PART ONE
~
Moonlight stepped through her portal, embracing the soothing vapour. In the room she could see more CBers coming through their portals, a few lugging AEs behind them. For a second, she thought she felt a finger tracing the lines of the rainbow volleyball on her hoodie. Quickly, she looked down, raising a hand to block the finger. But nothing - no, nobody - was there. More than slightly creeped out, Moonlight stepped further into the room. Kitten, Soren, Levana, Gracia, Claaws, SpiffyJith, Leo, icarus, Micearenice, Agent Winter, Night Vision, Reese, Twirlgirl, Naturewriter, and Viola? all more-or-less fell into the steam, all looking equally burnt out. With a meaningful glance aimed at Viola and Claaws, Moonlight swept a finger under one eye and shrugged tiredly, clearly indicating the dark circles. Viola? swept a lock of bed-headly tangled hair out of her eyes, also framed by dark circles, and laughed. Claaws didn't notice. She was busy trying to straighten her hair, to no avail. Suddenly, A teen girl, with beautiful brown hair and glassy green eyes appeared in the centre of them all. Moonlight noticed that the girl's hair, judging by the light colour and the glints of gold and red, used to be blonde. She also noticed that her tiredness fell from her, and the girl's gaze brought with it a strange sense of security. The girl was dressed in a white gown, layered, which made it look like a soft-petaled flower. A white flower of unknown species adorned the girl's hair, and white flecks of light floated randomly around the girl's body, especially around her arms and hair.
"Hello, friends. I am your host," She bowed low, very uncharacteristic for her very femanine and cultured manner, "And I am pleased to see that you are all here. Oh, my name is Argenta. Most call me Silver. Please, come in." She waved a hand, and the portals behind the guests shimmered, changing to connect the steam-filled room to halls of mirrors, illuminated by a nocturnal glow and some gentle candlelight. Despite her current physical state, Moonlight felt exceptionally luxurious.

Welcome.
