ADVENTURE IS OUT THERE...
The first thing you notice upon gaining consciousness is the smell. The air smells musty and woody, like the back corner of some forgotten tourist trap. As you stir yourself awake, you find yourself in a wicker bed with a soft sheet draped over you. The room’s walls are wood-paneled, and a nearby desk displays a digital clock reading “9 AM”. A singular potted plant provides the barest amount of decoration--though, the exact plant species differs between rooms. A note written in flowing cursive has been taped to your door.

As you make your way out of your room, you’ll find yourself on a balcony overlooking a octagonal lobby below. Various artifacts and trophies decorate the club from top to bottom, cluttering the walls and any available surface. From here, you can clearly see that the marble floor of the lobby is decorated to look like a compass. Descending the stairs will reveal that, in addition to the artifacts mounted on the walls, several plaques have been put up detailing the lives of those trapped here--including you.
If you peer out the windows, you’ll see a tropical island sprawled out before you, overgrown with palm trees and shrubs. If you peer far enough above the treeline, you might even be able to see the ocean. No matter how hard you try, the front door is sealed shut and the windows seem impossible to break.
You've got until noon 'til the meeting happens. For now...enjoy the club, if you can.
[ OOC: Welcome to the Adventurers Club! We're so excited to have you here. This is the intro log--feel free to mingle on this post to your hearts content. At 6 PM EST, we'll be introducing the host! If you have any questions, feel free to direct them to the mods. ]

[She knows that Cass doesn't belong at her side. She knows that Cass's purpose doesn't lie somewhere within Corona - she accepted as much to her the day Cass left Corona. But still...]
It feels right, having you there with us.
[Us. Yes, us. Eugene misses Cass too, even if he doesn't acknowledge it the same way. She's heard him complaining about having nobody to pick on enough to know what he really means; bantering with other people just isn't as fun as bantering with Cass.]

Leaving Corona just as things had gotten back on track with all of them had been a difficult decision. Not a impossible one - just difficult. She had no idea how quickly she'd start missing that life again.]
I was starting to miss the times when it was just you and me. And Eugene, of course.
[The thought honestly brings a smile.]
I'll be there.

[It's why everything just sort of... fell apart without Cass there, those months where she had turned against them. A puzzle can look nice when it's nearly complete, sure, but without that final piece...]
I can take care of getting a suit tailored for you!! I'll even make it flashy if you want, so Eugene can complain that you're trying to upstage him.
[She doesn't normally like upsetting Eugene, but if Cass thinks it'll be funny, she can make an exception. Like that time she painted his face on Cass's training dummy.]

[There's nothing I couldn't do, not with you by my side.
When she said those words, she meant it. There was no denying just how well they had worked together, even after her thoughts strayed to eventually, finally betraying her friends. Some part of her just wanted that moment to remain forever...]
A suit? Really? I... Wow, Raps. [That does brighten her expression.] I'll accept flashy, just for that reason.
Let's just talk it over, after we get out of here. Okay?
no subject
[Eh? Eh??? Rapunzel wiggles her eyebrows; c'mon, that had to get a giggle out of Cass!]
Aww, fine. But... I can't promise I won't sketch something. I have way too many ideas!
[If it sounds like Rapunzel has already been planning this... she totally has. There was never any doubt to her that she'd ask Cass to be there, and she knew Eugene felt the same. It was all just a matter of getting all the pieces to fall together at the right time.]
