[X-Men: Next Class] The Rozanov-McManus Apartments

Postby Tereza Rozanov » Fri Mar 23, 2018 6:30 pm

The teacher/staff quarters were built around a concept that the designer liked to call "Permanent Modularity." The small complex had floors designed to be sectioned up into apartments as space and needs dictated, though the modular pieces did their best to look like permanent walls and were fairly decent at absorbing sound. The Rozanov-McManus apartment was one of the larger sections, partially due to housing occasional visitors and partially due to no one wanting to argue with the werewolf when she described the first layout as 'claustrophobic'. Here and there were touches of Tereza's design choices mostly in the form of music paraphernalia and the occasional pictures of her weird 'family'.

Tereza had taken the time after the party to make sure that Maya was all settled in the dorms before she retreated to her apartment. She dropped heavily onto the couch with a groan, turning the TV on and just staring at whatever the last channel happened to be. It crossed her mind that she should get up and eat, but all she wanted at the moment was to decompress.

"S'open," Tereza calls, looking towards the door before deciding she should at least get off the couch to meet the person.

Viv opened the door but backed in pulling a very large wooden chest in with her.

"Tereza, dear..a hand."

That killed the lethargy. "Viv!" She bounded to the door, reaching down to lend a hand with the chest. "I didn't know you were coming back."

"Would not miss the first day." They moved the chest to the livingroom and Vivienne knelt to unlock it right away.

"Gifts, bribes and tribute for the Morrigan and her Wolf, from the High Lords and Ladies of the Four Seasons." She said as she stood up and embraced Teresa. "Mother sends her regards as well."

The chest held an array of goods, obviously not of human make.

"They were warned and told to respect her in accordance to all her titles." Vivienne began to unpack the chest, her eyes becoming dark as she gently picked up the first item.

"Yes and no. This one is a bribe, charmed to bind into agreement the one who pick it up." She smiled.

"It was to be expected. They are testing the boundaries of the treaty. They assumed I would not unpack for myself."

Vivienne turned the object in her hands looking it over. It was an exotic wood carving of a raven and a wolf in a sort of dancing pose.

"It is disenchanted now and the caster knows it failed. Some time with it later and I can find out more." She set the wooden item down.

"It is." She pulled a bolt of black fabric that had a sort of silver something woven into it that caught the light. As she did a folded paper fluttered loose.

Vivienne's eye were unchanged. "Yes, safe." She smiled and set the fabric aside.

The paper was an inventory list in Nimue's hand and another note in another hand and another language.

Vivienne leaned over to read the fey runes.

"Ah, an apology. The items must have shifted in transport. The carving and the fabric are from the Erlkonig. The carving was found in his vaults. He warns of the charm, it is old and he has none in his court to remove it. The holder of the bargain is no longer living, but he requests that the Unbindable One handles it first."

“She will cause a stir, but there should be little actual fear. There was talk of an invitation to the Winter fete, but the rules and fine turning for human attendees has not been settled yet.” She pulled an envelope from her pocket, their names along with their fey given titles written in delicate calligraphy. In fact three names were on the invitation.
