[ oh alright, good to know! And I'm afraid I don't understand, either. ]
The information gained caused the fae to smirk. "The Paradox House," he tried the name out, running a finger along the brim of his hat as he continued listening. What a strange place; could it really be so powerful to take him out of Wonderland? He doubted it. He was getting this information from a stranger after all, and it all sounded like lies. "Ok Kaito Kid," his head tilted to one side as his black eyes rested on him, "I'm Morpheus." Pausing for a brief moment, he tried to gather his thoughts. "You have some explaining to do. How does this house try to kill you exactly? Right now everything seems to be fine."

(Yeah, Its a borderlands reference. XD Not sure if anyone here has played it or not.)

(I haven't played borderland, but it's still an amusing misspelling. )
Kid jerked a finger in the direction of the hallway. "Down there are doors to different rooms. Anything can turn up in them, from ping-pong balls to a swamp full of zombies. The more deadly rooms can sometimes kill you or try to at least." His eyes narrowed a little at the thought. He hadn't seen anyone die yet, but it was only a matter of time. "What happens is that you appear and disappear here at random. Called 'blinking', though I couldn't say why. When you appear here, time in your world is frozen. So what you were doing before you came here, well, you'll still be doing it when you get back."

[ he's immortal, so would he still be able to die in the house or not? ]
Morpheus moved his gaze toward the hallway. "Rooms you say? And killer rooms at that? Hm, very interesting. I've never heard stories like these before," he commented with a shrug, eyeing him again. He still wasn't sure whether he should believe him or not. Besides, if there were killer rooms, he was immortal so he didn't have to worry. "Oh good to know that I won't miss a thing once I return home." Actually, how do I get back from here? Is there an exit or something I can take?"

(If he's invulnerable (can't die), then no, I guess not. ^^' )
"There isn't an exit. Wish there was, but there isn't. It's completely random on how you appear and disappear here. When the House doesn't want you here, I guess you'll blink out." The thief shrugged, not really feeling that he was explaining this very well. It didn't seem like this guy believed him anyway. That wasn't out of character, of course. Kid didn't think anyone, including himself, had actually believed all this to start with.

[ ok, was just checking because I didn't see that anywhere on the front page ]
"So you're bacsically saying that this house regulates everything itself?" Asked Morpheus, still staring at him as if he disapproved of everything the thief had said. He now had his arms crossed, looking as if he were thinking of something. "You know, that sounds completely absurd. I've never heard of a house having a mind of its own." He narrowed his eyes. "You're not lying to me, are you?"

(That's what I heard at least.)
"Yeahhhh, took me a long time to believe it myself," said Kid, looking down at his shoes. "You don't have to believe me, but it will benefit your experience here in the long run." He crossed his own arms and didn't move his eyes from his shoes. "I'm good at lying, but I'd never try to pass this off as real if it wasn't. I'm good, but not that good." A small smile twitched at the corner of his mouth.

Morpheus still hadn't taken his eyes off of him. He was still skeptical about whether or not to believe him, but he did say that believing him would help. After a long moment of silence he said, "I can tell you're not lying," stated the fae softly, thinking about his words. "This is just overwhelming. One moment I'm back at home, then I'm here. I never expected anything like this to happen. What else should I know about this place, if anything?"

( I found that last night. It wasn't that bad. But you've improved by miles. ) "It's always overwhelming," he muttered. He raised his head after another second and said, "Well, people from other worlds and times end up here. I'm from Earth, Japan, 2016, but others are from Britain, 1800 something-or-other, times when Earth was destroyed, world I've never even heard of, things like that. So don't be surprised if some odd people blink in here."

[ I'm off to eat dinner. I hope I can get back on once I finish. ]
"Good to know. I guess I'll understand st you mean by odd when that time comes," Morpheus muttered, smirking. "Well I thank you very much for giving me all this information. I think it might come into use soon." The fae finally broke his gaze away from him and around the living room.

(Kathrine who... Haven't got there yet, but okay! )
(Alright Gem! When/if you get back on, here's the reply.)
Kid stepped back a few steps and sat down on the couch. "Well, I'd offer to go into a room at this point, but I'm not so sure about that with just the two of us. Last room I was in was okay, but I don't want to risk it just yet." He looked over in the direction of the hallway. "Unless, of course, you think otherwise?"

Other than that, I'm good.)

(Or we could maybe do both? I'm up for them getting to the temple room Oh, I'm always ready to talk about books! I'm currently reading The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewski. I can type up a short description, hold on xD) (Hi Rain!)

(Hey Echo!) (Both works for me! I'm currently reading the manga series The Devil's a Part-Timer and a book called The Raven Boys (as people keep suggesting it to me). I've never heard of The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewski, so I'd be very interested in hearing what it is about. ) Zange blinked into the butterfly room. He wasn't that far from the temple, but he had his back to it. The boy was older, once again. Only instead of gaining one year, he'd gained three. The twelve year-old yokai slowly turned to look out at the butterfly room, his black top hat tilting a little in a faint breeze. Back again, he thought quietly. Been a while.

(Hm, I've never read either of those o.o This will be terrible, just warning you. It's about Edgar, who helps his family with their farm, mostly breeding dogs. But one day something happens that causes Edgar to have to leave the farm, so he and some of the pups leave to try to survive in the wilderness. That's mostly what it says on the back of the book.)
Matteo blinked into the butterfly room, not too far from the temple. The boy grinned as he watched the butterflies for a moment, then frowned as he realized something, running towards the other blinked as the butterflies tried to land on him. He had almost forgotten they were carnivorous (butchered that spelling). "H-hi, Mister!" He called out, coming to a stop in front of the older boy.

(Hey Mint and broken! Busy day today, so I had to poof earlier.)
"Don't worry about it. I'm fine." 7S said to her pod as she blinked in. Of course Pod was questioning her emotional state after she had let her feelings out. It hadn't been very long since her last blink, she had just left the scene of the failed rescue attempt and was staring at something in her hand. It was a choker not unlike her own. The leather was stained darker in spots, a sign of its owner's fate. "Just have to keep doing my job."

He looked over in the direction of the hallway. "Unless, of course, you think otherwise?" [ is this too late? ] Morpheus studied his expression for a few moments. He had followed the guy over toward the couch, but didn't take a seat, instead he just stood in front of him. His wings twitched slightly and the gems under his eyes flashed a purplish color as the thought about the options. "I'm curious about these rooms, however you seem like you know best, so why don't you choose?"

(If they are going to head into a room, does it matter to you if they link up to the temple room so they all end up in the same place? Or would you rather make up the room?) The thief considered. "Though I don't particularly want to risk anything...it is possible that it will trigger others to blink in. So I guess a room it is." He stood again, walking around Morpheus as he head for the hallway. "Anyway, you learn the most from experiencing the House yourself."

(Hey, it still sounds interesting and that's what counts. ) Zange looked down at Matt in surprise. Not to long ago, in House time, they hadn't been so far off in height. "Hellooooo, Matteoooo," he said, smiling as he rolled the 'o'. The yokai looked over as 7S appeared and waved a hand. He didn't comment on her 'emotional status', feeling it was best not to pick a fight today. "7S," he greeted, still with a wide smile.
