Welcome to the 69th Muppet Family Reunion! (Plus Extended Family)

[You received the invitation for the Muppet Family Reunion about a week ago. These reunions have become a routine thing for you and the extended Muppet Family. Whether it be by plane, car, cave tunnel, or magic, you made your way to Emily Bear's house and settled in for the night. Emily Bear was nowhere in sight to greet you, but, surely that's nothing to be worried about.

However, upon waking up, you'll find that a fierce blizzard has descended upon the house overnight--several feet of snow have piled up on the front porch, and, from the looks of it, the snow won't let up anytime soon. Not to mention the fact that Emily is still not here.

Something feels wrong, but you can't quite put your finger on it.

You may notice a small note pinned to the wall where you slept, which reads:]


COME TO LIVING ROOM AT NOON FOR IMPORTANT FAMILY MEETING :)

[Whatever this meeting is about, you have some time to explore the house and chat with the other people gathered here.]

(ooc: Welcome to the Muppet Murder Hour mock trial week! The host NPC will show up around 5 pm est. Until then, feel free to explore the house and interact with everyone else!)
asksforsolittle: (you say that so often)

Could be handy. Not a bad idea. Here, let me help you. We can share what we find - and if we only find one, it's yours.

[he doesn't need knives to defend himself if necessary, after all. he starts opening the cupboards that are beyond Monty's reach]

Thank you, that's very kind.

[Just because he's a pirate doesn't mean that he should go without manners. Besides, there's something about him that makes him want to grovel.]

I like you, Mr...?
asksforsolittle: (nothing ever hurts again)

[personal profile] asksforsolittle 2018-04-30 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[have a broad, charismatic grin, then, Monty, because there's something about you that makes him think you're just the sort he could use groveling for him, really]

Not Mister, if you please, but King. And you may call me Jareth. What's your name?

[even though he's apt to call you everything but Monty in the days to come.]
couldvebeenasurgeon: (:O)

[personal profile] couldvebeenasurgeon 2018-04-30 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[His mouth hangs agape at the mention of King. He's in the presence of beautiful royalty.]

I'm Mad Monty, Mister King Jareth, Sir.

Mad Monty. Well, that's a fine, strong name for a fellow. Glad to meet you.

[he finds a box of Cröonchy Stars and pops it open, giving it an experimental sniff]

Well, it's not a knife, but it smells wonderful.

[like cinnamon toast, even]
couldvebeenasurgeon: (:v)

[His weird little mossy body puffs up a bit at the compliment. It's nice to have positive reinforcement. What a good leader.

He catches the faintest whiff of the Croonchy Stars, the cereal dust blown into the air from opening the package.]


Ooh, what is that?
asksforsolittle: (nothing ever hurts again)

[personal profile] asksforsolittle 2018-04-30 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not entirely sure. But I like the way it smells.

[he pops some into his mouth. okay, for someone who grew up with British sweets, and got brought to a world where there's not much in the way of sugar? yes. oh God yes, this is delicious.]

... I know I'm going to be eating more, that's for certain.
couldvebeenasurgeon: (:?)

[personal profile] couldvebeenasurgeon 2018-05-01 08:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[He looks up at the box for a moment, hoping his gaze will somehow warrant a response. Giving up on that quite quickly, he opts for a more direct route.]

Can I have some?
asksforsolittle: (basis for comparison)

[personal profile] asksforsolittle 2018-05-04 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Well....

[ugh. HE found it. it's his. and he doesn't want to share. but he needs Minions. with a sigh, he holds out the box]

I suppose.
couldvebeenasurgeon: (AUGH)

[personal profile] couldvebeenasurgeon 2018-05-04 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[He goes to reach into the box- and then catches himself, remembers his manners, and briefly looks up towards Jareth.]

Thank you.

[Then he reaches a grubby hand into the box and takes a sizeable fistful of cereal, and shoves it into his mouth.]

Oh! [Munch] This is delicious!
asksforsolittle: (nothing ever hurts again)

[personal profile] asksforsolittle 2018-05-04 09:20 pm (UTC)(link)
We don't have this in my Kingdom. Pies and tarts and cakes, but not this!
couldvebeenasurgeon: (AUGH)

[personal profile] couldvebeenasurgeon 2018-05-04 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
What I'd do to have this at sea...

[Not to insult Long John's lovely cooking, of course.]
asksforsolittle: (makes no sense for you)

[personal profile] asksforsolittle 2018-05-05 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
[considering who this mun might use next time he thanks you for the consideration but anyway]

At sea? I can't say I've ever been there. What does one eat?
