Ru- "He looks like he might throw a party with pools and wine, and fancy paintings, but that's only a best guess." Ru wondered if there were going to be any other distinguished guests involved in all of this, and put a hand against his cheek. "I wonder how people keep such a big house clean. I can barely keep up with an apartment."

Eli- "Yeah, me either and I have like forty roommates. Actually, that's why I can't keep it clean, so it makes sense. I'm sure these guys have servants... Damn, could you really make this kinda dosh in film? In Harlan of all places?"
Eli- "They gotta have a side business... Maybe Antearctan film. Ooh what if we have to go back to August's homeland to make a blockbuster!"

Ru- "I wonder what that would be like. I know they have a fondness for action films there. What sort of film would it be? A... Vampire-gunslinger movie? I might actually watch that." He looks thoughtful, and then shakes his head. "I cannot imagine a reality where I am wealthy enough to hire other people to clean my house for me. I just have to learn to live with a bit of mess."

Eli- "I never thought about moving for a job before, but damn... Vampire cowboys? Who would turn down the chance to make that real?" ((I'm gonna paste in a few in-between posts here, but let me know if you'd like to add something beforehand))((Eli post here??? Didn't notice this before)) Jason- "Shit..I don't care who the hell owns this place, this mansion is outright beautiful!"
Eli- "No joke! If you can afford a place like this making films, I think I'm a filmmaker for life now!"
Leo- "What Eli said." ((Leo changes the subject here, but maybe a good spot for more Ru/Eli))EDIT -- Actually I rearranged the order of the posts a bit to make more sense.

Ru- "Do actors make this much too? Or just directors? If someone made it big, think about how many friends they could keep in their mansion..." Ru stares at the rest of the mansion wistfully, wondering if Babette would want to share a home with him like this. He knew that his girlfriend wouldn't like it but maybe she'd understand there was no real competition between the two of them. He wished she was here to enjoy the ridiculous splendor of the mansion. "Can you imagine being able to afford any art you wanted like this? And a pool like this?"

Eli- "My god, that's wild... Damn man, I'm sick of my roommates, but imagine if they were actually your *friends?* And you had your own rooms? It'd be like a dorm, but a dorm in some fantasy fulfillment movie..."
Eli- "Hell yeah, if I had that kind of money I could finally realize my dream of commissioning people to make sequels to Sledgehammer Boys and Curse of the Ninja Master... So cool... What would you do?"

"I'd be all for that. Maybe we should strive to have that sort of housing arrangement if we ever make it big. I think I would want to commission sequels to my favorite art-house movies." He seems thoughtful. "I guess I have never known anyone who had this sort of wealth..."

Eli- "No kidding, weird that you can just meet someone walking around your school like that. Quinn's a fancy boy, but not like this..." ((Maybe a response post here, and then the thread continues on as before? Btw don't let me rush u on anything. ))

Ru- "You're right. It is a little unusual. Maybe this will be our big chance to be funded." His expression changed a shade, maybe a shade of doubt on his face. What was someone so wealthy doing mingling with them... Was this...going to be some strange grooming thing? Maybe it wasn't based off the merit of their production afterall...He stewed in his feelings for a moment.

((kewl, so I think that thread continues on that way as before, w/ Wilhelm asking about the film. Btw let me know if you can think of any other good places for scenes! I've been looking around, but they didn't have many much contact originally.
So let's see... Moving on to the party chapter. Ru kind of dropped out of this thread at the time, maybe a good time for an original post? Right about here might be good.
horrorboys.proboards.com/post/27612/thread
In this part everyone has met all the vampires at the tables, and are waiting for the flower ceremony to start.
You posted this later on, after the ceremony began: horrorboys.proboards.com/post/27681/thread
So maybe establish what Ru was doing beforehand, like "Ru was lost in thought..." etc? And then I can have Eli approach.
EDIT -- love the new avatar btw ))

He thought he made a decent impression, but wasn't under any false pretense of being the shining star of the little meet-up here. Each one of them all had their own charms that made them shine best, and he wondered if he had any. Perhaps he had a few decent curves to his attitude edge. It almost felt like a job fair really... But what was their interview? He wished he could read minds sometime.
Once, a long time ago, Babette said that she could sense peoples motives, but he wasn't sure he quite believed that in the same way. He seemed quiet and lost in thought, staring into the space between Babette and August...

((Chris loves that series, he's even read all the novels!))Eli was a bit tired of Jason's shenanigans and noticed Ru's solemn gaze. He made his way over, the guy probably didn't want to get called out in front of the whole fam-damily. Eli- "Hey Lord Ru, the socializing getting to you? Better be making room in your blazer pockets for all the flowers you're about to get."

((I read quite a few of the novels, hope to play the boardgame/rpg game, played the videogame, own the movies and the comic series and the new comic series)) Ru- "A pleasure to see you. I think my dear Babette, August and yourself are the stars of tonight. You made good impressions. The rest of us are as shades in the night. In the best possible way, of course." He seemed thoughtful. It was a strange evening to be sure.

((Wahh u guys are super fans. )) Eli- "Oh pft, they're all here for the stars, my dude. No one put on their best earrings for a subpar storyboard artist. Ah, but I am trying to be hopeful! I dunno why, but I feel pretty good about this. Maybe I'm still buzzed enough, gettin' that chemical optimism." He glanced around at the crowd. Eli- "I wonder though... you know, you don't get to listen in on how other people did. Anyone you got on especially well with?" ((btw if you don't remember, feel free to change the subject to someone he thinks is interesting instead, etc. ))
