UNHOLY DISORDER

[livestage]

[Something is wrong with the room you are in.

At first blush, it seems normal enough. It's nicely furnished, lavish dark oak, brass and a rich green drapery and carpet. Except in the middle of the room, a simple glass box sits wrapped in chains. Inside, a heart rocks back and forth as it beats, chambers constricting and relaxing around air.

But the more you look around, you might notice that the rafters beyond the brass lamps are made of bone, spine connecting them all. You might notice that the binding on all of the books seems to be an unusual leather. You might notice that teeth have been used as nails.

You almost can't help but notice the strange ... give... under your feet. Whatever is under the carpet seems almost spongy.

You know, instinctively, that the heart is in danger.

But so are you.]

Hello, I hope you're entertained so far. I wanted to ask, because it doesn't seem to be ruled out - is it possible for the heart we have to belong to a member of our own Family?

That sounds like a question you'd have to submit. ♥

Re: RING RING

I guess it does. Hey, is there anything we can offer you or your partner to get more questions?

Now, now. Just because you're my champion doesn't mean I'll let you get away with bribery.

Re: RING RING

Ah, alright. You've set up serious enough consequences that it was worth asking, but I won't push my luck if that's more cheating than creativity. I've still got to get to know your preferences, haven't I?

Re: RING RING

Hmm. Speaking of consequences, you may want to keep an eye on your wayward family members.
