  Fourth Wall Meme

It's the return of the Fourth Wall Meme, and we're opening it for the next full week! paradisa does not allow non-members to post or comment in our main community, so we're offering this as a place to roleplay with our cast. Both character journals and personal journals are welcome, as well as doubles, original characters, AUs, whatever. Not all can be applied to the main game, but they're certainly welcome here.

Premise:
You wake up in a giant, magical castle. Everything is beautiful and the castle grants material wishes. It also provides a magic journal to every resident that allows everyone to communicate with each other like a two-way radio.
 

Format:
[Actions] Dialogue.

IE:
[Mickey Mouse enters the room, and sits down at the kitchen table.]

Gosh, guys, is this place ever swell!

What are you gonna do?

Is that so?

[He inclines his head slightly to the left: Good. Not far. Tim's already lost his father, and his friends, and possibly already attempted to kill Boomerang, judging by the slight fall in his expression. But Bruce will leave nothing to chance.]

I expect you'll have a lot to tell me. Lunch?

[dorkwonder]

Lunch sounds great. Actually, I need to stop by my room first. Would you mind coming with me? I can give you a tour of the castle and show you a couple of places you'll probably find interesting.

[He claps a hand on Tim's shoulder, infusing it with some genuine paternal sentiment.]

Lead the way.

[dorkwonder]

[Tim lingers for a moment, wanting to reach out to Bruce, but knows he needs to wait a little longer. Instead, he expresses his gratitude in his eyes when he looks at him.]

This way.

[Goes through the motions, pointing out all of the major spots like the library and the main stairwell that leads to the different towers.]

I actually don't spend much time in the castle. I live in a house outside of the city. But I like to spend time here, and I'll always have a room in the castle as long as I'm here.

[Bruce oohs and ahhs at the appropriate moments. His questions vary from the airy to the perceptive, and he allows none of the Bat to cross his movements or his expression. It's a shadow, watching and taking everything in. Tim can fill the rest. Bruce has learnt to trust certain things to his children.]

I was assigned one of those lovely rooms, but it doesn't seem quite safe by Gotham's standards, does it?

[Is there a safehouse?]

[dorkwonder]

[Tim continues with the small talk, using it partially to inform Bruce of what's going on in the castle, and also using it as a way to collect his thoughts. Bruce being here makes Tim reevaluate all of the choices he's made in Paradisa. Has he done everything he should be doing? He's certainly made his mistakes on the way, some painful ones, but more than the others he believes he's held onto what it means to be a part of Batman's legacy.]

I know what you mean. There are some places that are safer than others.

[Tim is leading Bruce to one such place. He takes the route that is the most private and by now, he's learned what times the majority of residents pass through the route. Within a few minutes, the two of them enter inside of a small room that is reminiscent of the Bat cave. It's not much to look at, but there are filing cabinets and a small computer that's filled with information on the different residents who have passed through the castle.]

We can talk freely here. This room was set up by another version of yourself and a couple of others awhile back. I have an even more secure place that no one else knows of. [Including Steph and Cass.]
