a welcome;

[mallowmods]

Who: Everyone and everyone!
What: Welcoming in the new members to Mallow Hallow
Where: Everywhere!
When: March 2nd.

[ Once everyone’s settled in their particular districts, no doubt thousands of questions running between each individual mind, there’s an announcement. Not over the devices, but rather in speakers all over each and every district. A familiar voice should ring out—you did, after all, hear the voice of your Queen earlier today. ]

Ahem! Can you hear me? Ah, right then.

Hello loveies! You might recall this particular visage which speaks before you—that is, I am your Queen. Call me Queenie, if you must! I’ve met you all on this particular day, and I find it important to bestow some of my boundless knowledge onto you, sweethearts.

Now! Done with formalities, let’s see where we stand… ah, yes! Might I be the first to welcome you all to Mallow Hallow, our wonderful little country. Not too big, not quite too small either! It’s just lovely, isn’t it? Oh, how all my new babies will love it here! Or—perhaps not. [ She clicks her tongue. ] Either way, it doesn't really matter. You're stuck here for the time, so do try to make the most of it, dears.

Of course, there are our sectors within Mallow Hallow. Six… [ There’s silence for a short moment. ] Yes, there are six, aren’t there..? Well, six different communities you might stem off from! Surely you remember the name from our meeting earlier? If not, I’m sure one of the regular inhabitants of each particular district will assist you in naming your new home!

Live where you’d like, eat what you’d like, do what you’d like! Our homes are now your homes, so please, consider us all a big happy family to you! Remember you can reach me or any of the other rulers of any of the districts, over at our voicemails! [ Somehow, that seems sarcastic… ]

Also, don’t cause any trouble, or I’ll personally end you. [ There it is. ]

I suppose that's all. Well then, bye now, dears! And let the word spread—Mallow Hallow is up and rising once again!

Uh huh. And what are you? A try hard Shakespearean actor?

[hisoldtricks]

[A dark smile crosses his face as he looks her.]

Such a brave little mortal. Do you intend to combat me with your 'astounding wit' alone?

[still_at_twenty]

That was an insult... and a threat. [pause] Was that a threat?

[hisoldtricks]

Oh look, you do seem to catch on quick. [In other words, yes it was. Though he does eye her a bit more thoughtfully. Could she be of use to him? That's what he is aiming to find out now.]

I'm feeling a tad generous. Answer some questions for me and then I shall lead you to the other district that is not made of pillows.

[still_at_twenty]

[she plants one hand on her hips now, huffy and annoyed and just a taaad worried]

I'll let the fact that you just insulted my intelligence multiple times slide.

[she crosses her arms now, squinting at him suspiciously] What kind of questions?

[hisoldtricks]

[He doesn't bother to reply to her first statement. As that was a habit of his that would not likely stop any time soon.]

Merely general ones about the world you originally come from. Like where precisely did they snatch you away from?

[He merely smiles, though it likely isn't a comforting sort of smile.]

[still_at_twenty]

[good job nabbing another creepy guy, Ally. God. At least the first question is harmless.]

Boston. Pretty sure I was sleeping.

[hisoldtricks]

[Definitely from Earth, though was she from the same reality. Only one way to find out.]

Does the name Tony Stark sound familiar to you?

[Rather a good thing that Stark's reputation was a good tool to measure whether or not someone was from the same time as himself.]

[still_at_twenty]

[slight annoyance in her voice] No.

[hisoldtricks]

I see. [Such a thoughtful expression crosses his face as he mulls things over.]

Fine. Orlea is in that direction. [He points along with his words.] Ladies first.

[Yep. Clearly done with his questions. At least for now.]

[still_at_twenty]

Uh huh. That is completely not creepy. How about we walk side by side?
