Murkwood Manor [open]

Iris Callahan | water nymph | hydrokinesis | location; somewhere in the manor | tags; alexander

Iris grinned and began to walk alongside him as he began to lead the way. She blinked as he introduced himself and her pale cheeks blushed a light red when she realized she hadn't done the same, "Oh, it's nice to meet you Alexander, I'm Iris, Iris Callahan." She replied with a small smile, even though she was a water nymph she still believed in having a last name. She wanted to fit in as much as she could so having a last name is essential to that, its also the reason she has a human form, she does't want to freak people out, or ruin anything by being in her nymph form so she decided that should would only go into that form when she really needs to. She glanced around the halls as they walked, trying to think of something to talk about, "So uh," She started, unsure of what to say as she glanced at him, "What brought you here?" She finally asked as she looked down at her feet.

thalia drummed the fingers of her free hand against the top of the piano as she watched foster make her way down, expression schooled into a relaxed smile, lifting her hand when the young girl looked in. her smile had turned into one more mischievous as she watched the gears turn in the girl's head. but when foster asked her about school, her eyebrows rose, smile faltering for a moment. it was the last thing she'd expected, it wasn't something she liked to talk about much but the question wasn't directly about school, so her smile came back. "well my wings are easy. i used to charm it with this-" she held up her left wrist, using her other hand to twirl a loose bracelet around for a charm to face foster. "- but when i turned eighteen- don't ask human rules- i was able to get a tattoo that hides my wings as a it."she twisted on the bench and pulled the back of her collar down slightly to show the edges of her tattoo before turning back. "my powers, well, um. willpower i guess?" she gave a weak excuse. she never used it once after the first accident. it was something she feared.

lusine tilted her head to the side slightly as she looked down a set of diverging halls and jumped when she heard someone's voice break the hallway’s silence. she turned to see a man approach her, her first instinct was to smile and slip her hands into the pockets of her heavy skirt. “hello! I seem to have gotten turned around here, I was honestly just trying to find the entrance so I could head to the garden,” she spoke, fingers pinching the fabric inside her pockets. if she was a century younger ‘miss’ would have probably bothered her, something about it making her feel old was what 300 years old lusine had believed. now her only worry was what she touched. “i’m lusine, I just checked in a few days ago and I confess I’m a tad out of my element.”

Matthew Alexander ⚫ Fallen Angel ⚫ permanent resident ⚫ Tags: Isaac, Raia, Tamako (sort of)

Matthew gets up as he hears another voice in the dining room. perhaps they were meant to be in there? he didnt know of any meeting, but perhaps it wouldn't hurt to check. He collects up his notebook and pencil and puts them in his jean pocket, they to turning invisible as they disappear into his clothes. he then proceeds to push open the door separating him from the dining room and walks in, Kippin close at his feet, slightly sleepy. He lets the door close behind him as he surveys the ones in the dining room. he almost instantly recognized Raia, he was fond of the girl, but perhaps that was because she got even less of a chance at having a real life than he did, how ever he was slightly unfond of the fact that that meant she could see him no matter what. he only found out that other 'dead' beings could still see him when invisible after coming to the manor. he shakes away those thoughts before looking at the other two, one of the employees, Isaac. and a guest, who he didnt entirely know... he thinks that the name was Tamako, but he has no way to tell unless her name gets mentioned. he stays silent, not that he had much choice, to Isaac and Tamako, it would just look as if Kippin wandered in by herself, as of this group only Raia was able to see him in his invisible state. perhaps Isaac would know he was here with her, as he was an employee and Matthew often did this, but who knows.

Alexander Richardson ⚫ Phantom ⚫ Guest ⚫ Tags: Iris

Alexander nods as she introduce herself "lovely to meet you, Iris" he really did mean it, as well. She is the first one he has talked too since the loss of his family, other than when he made his booking at the hotel, that is. he hesitates slightly at her question, stumbling slightly and his breath hitching "i uh... just... family stuff, i guess... had to... get away" he says shakily, perhaps one day he might be able to tell someone what the 'family stuff' was, but today was not that day... especially when he did not know this girl very well. he chews his lip slightly before taking a breath "what about you, mi- Iris, what brought you to murkwood?" he asks, catching himself before he called her miss, he knew her name now so it would only be polite to call her by that.

(Sorry, y'all. I've been busy with the holiday season)

~~~~~~~~~~Raia Nuva~~~~~~Tags: Everyone in the Diningroom~~~~~

"Ghosts don't eat." Raia stated rather matter-of-factly. "Not your food anyway."
She glanced over to those entering the room, taking the most interest of the fallen angel. She cocked her head, her phantom curls fluttering gently.

~~~~~~~~~Trent~~~~~~Tags: Everyone outside~~~~~~~~
Trent looked to the woman as she spoke in response. He folded one arm behind his back in order to seem a bit more proper, trying to make up for the fact that he technically wasn't wearing much in terms of clothing -how unfit for his job interview!-
"I have received word that there was a job opening available?" he asked, "Assistant Groundskeeper or Assistant Housekeeper- I don't remember, but I am to be tending something, is what the message said."

Aspen Trepner 》 Witch 》Portal magic 》Perminet resident 》Location: outside 》Tagged: Chiyoko, Naomi, Trent
The witch turned a set of narrowed eyes back on Naomi, but her lips remained sealed. She didn't appreciate being patronized and treated as a child, especially by someone only a few years older than herself. The Satyr irked her, and for more reasons than simply being a stick in the mud. Before she could make the ground fall from the below the gal's feet, another voice caught her attention, and she turned her head in that direction. Some type of...centaur? She hardly had a clue, but was interested nonetheless. Naomi again spoke before she could answer the man's questions, so she slid herself from the brick pillar and landed in the grass with a soft thud, not too far away from this new, questionable being stood. "Naomi, dear," she began, mimicking the female's previous words. "I haven't the slightest idea why the mechanisms of a door confuses you so." While Aspen despised when others thought they could boss her around, the portal was tiring her, and there wasn't much need to keep it up anymore. She dispersed it, but nothing would visually indicate that she did. Turning her attention back to the man, her gaze trailed over him, slipping her hands into the back pockets of her jeans. "You'll be working here?" she questioned, head tilting upward in order to properly look at him. Aspen felt like a mouse in comparison "Lets hope you fit through the door that's apparently been causing so many issues." Her eyes sparkles with amusement, though she did hope that he wouldn't take offense. It may be a serious problem, especially with some of the smaller hallways.

Kolten Everdean 》 Werewolf 》No powers 》Guest 》Location: one of the manor's rooms 》Tagged: Samuel
The werewolf gave a light chuckle at the other man's grimace, his joke clearly hitting some set of worries. Kolten couldn't care less weather he was slacking off; it wasn't any business of his own. "I hardly think that would categorize you as a rebel." he commented, setting the book back down on the desk, since Samuel hadn't taken much of an interest in it when it had been handed his way. He shifted his body so that he was sitting properly in the chair, then stood and stretched his arms out forward. "It's fine I suppose. Quiet, which is good." He wasn't looking for anything exciting at the moment, so an uneventful stay at the manor was perfectly fine with him.

Matthew Alexander ⚫ Fallen Angel ⚫ permanent resident ⚫ Tags: Isaac, Raia, Tamako

Matthew glanced down, watching Kippins nose twitch as she smells all the food. he glanced back up when Raia had finished talking. he smiled softly at the girl when she looked at him, giving a small wave of his hand as a greeting to her. his eyes drift back across the room, perhaps they were just coming to get food, maybe there wasnt a meeting? oh well, he was in here now. he crosses slightly closer to the three of them, footsteps light and Kippin right on his heels. he stops a fair distance away, but he was still closer than he had been, out of the way of the door.

》isaac leon // twenty-nine // employee // awkward/anxious // tags: dining room

the dining room was filling up and dinner hadn't even started, this is not what issac wanted to happen. what was anyone even in here for? he stayed silent and still as tamako walked in and spoke. he continued this silence as kippen trotted in without his owner. raia spoke about ghosts not eating. "right..." issac didn't have much else to say and at this point the residents can set the table themselves if they really want to. "well... the sauce is probably burning, i'm going to work on that." issac called out to pretty much anyone in the dining room as he walked into the kitchen

》foster leon // thirteen // permanent resident // disappointed // tags: euthalia

foster winced when thalia mentioned a charm. although foster found the bracelet and tattoo pretty, unless they could completely block out her powers she found the concept useless. "willpower?" this wasn't the first time that word popped up in a conversation about her powers. "i don't think i have willpower? i'm always doing things without actually doing them." she wasn't sure where to go from here and took a step back, only now noticing she might be asking too much of thalia.

Samuel nodded "I agree, the Manor is the best place to find serenity that's what I love about this place." He said remembering fondly when he first came to the Manor amazed by how calm the place and the people were. "Oh! That and meeting interesting people like you! You know a new employee should be arriving this week I wonder what they're like, maybe a psychic transdimensional lord of reality? That would be so cool!" He said literally bouncing with excitement.

Naomi | She | Satyr | Healing Touch | Employee | Location: | Tags: Open

Naomi shot a disapproving look towards Apsen before offering her best smile to the newest employee. "I wouldn't know about that but if you would like to talk with one of the owners, I believe they are right upstairs. I'd be happy to take you to them." She honestly didn't keep up to well with the job advertisement. She was fine doing her work and enjoying her free time. However, she did prefer to keep a professional air up majority of the time as she was representing the manor even during her free time since she lived on site. There were few times she left the manor actually, and those few times were mostly to go out with a friend or two in secret. She stepped to one side of the doorway, holding the door open for the newest addition and gestured for him to enter. "Please come in."

Tamako | They | Kitsune | Illusion Magic | Guest | Location: Sitting Room | Tags: Open

Tamako watched dog man, Isaac, leave the dinning room and quickly snatched a roll that was sitting on the table. As they bit into it they noticed Raia staring at something that wasn't there. They didn't think they even knew or cared that Tamako was in the room with them and their staring. They made a annoyed face, not liking being ignored, even by creatures that they weren't fond on, and started out of the room. Of course they didn't know of the other person that was standing so close to them and paying very much attention. If they had, they may have tried to look a bit more dignified as they left. They moved into one of the sitting rooms visibly pouting and bristling from the treatment they had revived. They flopped down onto one of the couches and slouched down, tail flicking, not caring who was in the next room only that if anyone was they needed to pay attention to Tamako.

⇝ Akiko 'Aki' Koizumi :: Appears 22 :: Female :: Demi-god :: Guest :: ~Tamako

It took her a rather long time to register that her guardian was trying to subtly inform her that she should try talking to someone here that wasn't him. Something she had actually yet to do, despite having been here for far long enough to have tried. Avoiding the front entrance due to the group that was gathered there, and ignoring Kohaku's unimpressed snort at this counterproductive mindset, Akiko slipped into the building through a side door that may or may not have been meant for guest use at all. She wasn't entirely sure, but had yet to be told off for it so she may as well. Eventually she found herself in a sitting room, running a hand over Kohaku's fur almost anxiously as she realized there was someone else present in the room.
A kitsune, Kohaku offered, though Aki had already come to that conclusion herself. "Ah...?" They seemed... irritated, and that was making her second guess her decision to speak to them specifically, "are you..." she exhaled slowly to steady her voice. "Are you alright?"
