Rosemary was seated in the reading area, legs crossed over one another as she was nose deep in a... rather hefty looking book. Looking at the cover, it seemed to be some sort of DM's guide.
"Ooh, Mind Flayers as villains sound cool..." she mused to herself. "Metal as hell."

Ava, who had been zoned out staring at the shelves in a chair across from Rosemary for the past few minutes, groans.
"Oh, thank god, you finally said something." She slumps over the armrest, limbs akimbo, as she glances over in Rosemary's direction. "What's that book y'got there? That a game or something?"

As Ava spoke, Rosemary looked up from the module she was reading and nodded. "Yep. Good ol' D&D. I was into it growing up, and I'm thinking about maybe running something here so I don't tear my hair out with boredom, or at least planning something out to do if -- no, when we all get out of this fuckin'... fancy prison. Somehow. 'Sides, maybe the audience will like watching that too, yeah?"

“Dee-and-Dee, huh…. I’ve heard about it before… mostly from dudes who you can smell through the screen when reading their posts, but, still.”
Ava flops over more on her chair, tapping her face with her sleeve while staring at the goth practically upside down. “That game’s like any other RPG, but since it’s an irl thing, you gotta roll dice to cut shit in half, and actually do voices ‘n’ stuff to flirt with hot demon ladies, or call an NPC a ‘rank twat’, yeah?”

"Basically, yeah. Cutting shit in half and flirting with anything with a pulse is all part of the fun," Rosemary chuckled.
"But telling a story is the main draw, I feel. I can't really speak for, uh, writing stuff myself, but I'm pretty damn good at voices and improv and such, so I figured why not try my hand at running something, y'know? I can give each NPC a different voice and encourage my players to do stupid shit."
She let out another soft laugh, reclining back in her seat.
"Ahh, fuck, I'm such a nerd. I'm gonna stop myself from talking so I don't start smelling like those dudes you mentioned. But seriously though, if you'd be interested, I can set something up and see if anyone else would join. We could have real smashing time."

Ava seems rather enthralled with the idea, but she doesn’t bother telling Rosemary to not worry about smelling like a neckbeard or saying that being a nerd isn’t a bad thing, or any of the other things a considerate person would say.
“Getting a party together could be fun… there’s enough interesting and/or weird people in this house that it’d be pretty fun… so, if I like, agree to play this little game with you, would you let me play a busty Elf lady with dual crossbows and wind magic? Or a hot, beefcake warrior lady that can do a bunch of combos and shit with a lance? Or a sexy goth wizard lady that does dark magic? Wait, no, fire magic! No, lightning- wait, what about an assassin ninja chick with curved swords, or a pirate with sick tattoos and a six pack that beats the shit outta monsters and carries around a big cannon-“

"Whoa, whoa, slow down!" Rosemary laughed, holding her hands up in a faux defensive position. "I'd let ya play whatever you wanted to, mate. Well, maybe not the sexy goth lady. That's my thing."
She smirked, winking with her visible eye.
"Really, though, it's awesome that you were able to come up with all of those character ideas on the fly. They all sound brill! Tell you what -- if you decide on what you wanna play, run it by me and I'll help ya set up a character sheet, yeah? I'll see if I can wrangle up any of the others to play, too."

Ava trills at Rosemary acknowledging and complimenting her brilliant mind, at first, but the she groans and slumps further down her chair.
“I’ve gotta choose? But I’ve got so many M*plestory and Adv*ntureQuest characters that I wanna recreate in this game! How am I supposed to choose just one?”

"Well, if we don't have enough players, you could always play two... though I wouldn't recommend more, 'cause you'd just be talking to yourself like a madwoman whenever your characters interacted with one another."
A sly smiled crossed Rosemary's black lips.
"And your character could end up dying too, sooooo... best to have a few backups, yeah?"

“Ooh… I can definitely do backups…”

"Exactly!" Rosemary chirped. "Always good to have a backup. I'm not a dick, though, so I won't go out of my way to kill your character unless you do radically stupid shit. Or if you want me to because you wanna play a different character."
