Part Two: The Dinner

Who: Arthur & Helly Lester and anyone who actually goes for the invite
When: Evening of Jan 29th
Where: The Lester Household
Open/Closed: Open! Come one and all from Haven Street.
Applicable Warnings: Discussion of January events, mass conspiracy (it's us, we're the conspirators)


It's even odds, he thinks, whether people thought he was off his rocker in making a post like that, or if people would believe he's actually trying to contact people the only reasonable way he knew how. It was certainly much faster than trying to contact people individually, especially in this weather, and hopefully between himself and Helly that they've met enough people to get a decent turn-out.

The more they can learn about this place, the more they can trust each other, the better. Right now, trust is all they have.

The lower floor of the house is well lit, even if all the windows are curtained and shut, and there's a record playing in the lounge, audible from outside - something jazzy and dated by the standards of the time, but a bit of Hoagy Carmichael and Billie Holiday is settling his nerves, if nothing else - and the kitchen is... sparse, clearly underused but for the stack of mugs by the sink, but with some effort the blind leading the blind he and Helly have at least put together a salad for people. Theoretically they'll be bringing their own food too, make it at least ostensibly a potluck.

You'd... think... [On one level, Papyrus has to agree - blending would surely be easier for people who already knew all the rules of life here, than for people still reading up on it. He doesn't generally mind being challenged, likes to think he thrives on it, but... He didn't choose this, so why did their kidnappers?

But he says it slowly and uncertainly because on another level, he's busy with making a disgusted and annoyed face at his brother.]
Do you have to talk while eating? It's gross! And rude. And also, hard to understand you?

Sorry, sorry. [But since Sans apologized while still eating, how apologetic he actually is is extremely questionable. Still, he swallows.] Maybe they just get their kicks out of forcing people to behave.

[It's probably something else, but Sans can't discount that option. His timeline has made him too bitter to completely treat it as a joke that this is just happening for no good reason.]

Or just keeping them from not misbehaving. [It's grumbled, partly from residual annoyance over eating manners, but partly...

Well, he still hasn't decided how much to tell the people here about his kidnapping trip, but he should probably warn them about it. And that takes thinking about it. Restrained, condescended to, and then drugged... Then set loose, alone in a too-large house. Seemingly free again, but wary of repeating the experience. Is that forcing him?]
