Ava slowly walked in the room, looking around at how big it was. It was almost twice as big as her room at home. She walked over to her bed and began unpacking her stuff. She looked out the window and frowned at the pool. She didn't bring her swimsuit. "Dang it! That pool is huge too!" She thought as she finished unpacking. "It sounds very nice." She complemented to Evelyn.

"I wouldn't know, I never plan on becoming famous. Though people like Brendon Urie and Obama are hella nice and they are super well known. Just depends on the person. She reminds me of my aunt. Vain, vindictive, always something to complain about. Oh well." She shrugs. "Take my advice, don't get on her bad side but don't let her boss ya around either." She nodded, switching to I Love Rock and Roll by Joan Jett.

"Oh well thank ya! Wait. Where's the one person who was typing on their phone earlier? I know sign, maybe I can help them." She said, looking around the room. "Also. My name is Evelyn, what's your guys's?" She asked as she continued her playing, cussing under her breath when she messed up, and paid attention to her guitar to fix the mistake.

Kyoko set her suitcases aside, gawking at the heaven-like space that was her room. Wow, people here must really like the sun, she thought, examining the sun design on her bed and pillows. She pulled the gold curtains aside, squinting at the huge mass of sunlight hitting her eyes.

Once that died down, all that was left was awe for the view ahead of her.

Diara leaned on the bedroom's door frame and listened to their conversation idly. In response to Evelyn's question, he pulled out his phone and typed a response into a text to voice app. "My name is Diara. It's nice to know that someone else understands sign." The voice that came out of his phone wasn't a plain robotic voice. Instead, the prerecorded voice of Diara's friend came out. He had his friend say a bunch of words and modified them to work how AI's voices would.

“I’m Bianca,” she said, in answer to Evelyn’s question.
“So, any idea what else they have here besides a pool? I’m in the mood to go out and explore! While this hotel room is nice, I don’t want to be cooped up here all day,” she exclaimed, like an excited toddler in a toy shop.

Ava waved at Evelyn. "I'm Ava." She said smiling. "It's nice to meet all of you, I guess." She said, mumbling the last part. "This is so awkward!"
"I'll agree with that. I don't want to be stuck in here." She said.

"We can go search around the hotel. Maybe there will be a rec room or something," Diara proposed. The hotel was absolutely gorgeous, there would have to be something like that.

Kyoko flopped onto the bed with a heavy sigh, her exhaustion beginning to creep in. She closed her eyes but jolted when she heard a small knock on her door– as well as the one's next to her's. "Who is it?" She asked with a slight edge in her voice.

She opened the door, revealing a tall man who she assumed was part of the staff– considering that he was wearing a gold vest with a little sun pin at the collar. His hands were folded behind his back as he stood there, silently with that same broad smile the others wore.

"Um, excuse me? Can I help–" he held up a gloved finger to silence her and kept his gaze on the door next to her.

"I read the brochure, and I heard there's an arcade." Her eyes lit up like fireworks as she set down her guitar. "Also, Diara. That's a unique name…" She pulled out a little notebook from her back pocket and wrote it down. "My brother is a writer, and since I'm a lot more social I kinda steal names from people for his series. JUST in case. My sister Hyla taught me cause her boss is deaf. Long story. ANYWAYS. How about we all go together? Let the Queen next door get her beauty rest."

"Sounds good to me!" Ava said as she stood up and stretched. "Do you think they have a restaurant or cafe or something? I'm starving!" She exclaimed.

"Oh my gods yes, food sounds great. I could go for some cheesecake." She got up and pulled down her shorts, and looked at Diara. "Feel free to sign to me, I can interpret and say it back!" She gave him a thumbs up with a wide grin.

"Oh my gods yes, food sounds great. I could go for some cheesecake." She got up and pulled down her shorts, and looked at Diara. "Feel free to sign to me, I can interpret and say it back!" She gave him a thumbs up with a wide grin.

(Pulled down her shorts???)

He knocked on their door again, yet something about the way he moved created a hollow feeling below her stomach. She couldn't describe what it was exactly but– He stood upright, his hands behind his back again but this time, his piercing blue eyes bore into hers.

Kyoko shifted uncomfortably.

"Oh my gods yes, food sounds great. I could go for some cheesecake." She got up and pulled down her shorts, and looked at Diara. "Feel free to sign to me, I can interpret and say it back!" She gave him a thumbs up with a wide grin.

(Pulled down her shorts???)

(Ya know like when shorts ride up on you, and so you gotta tug down the legs so they ya know, don't??? Yeah like that. No she's just gonna flash everyone her cute undies real quick)

(Lol! Alright! I understand now.)
Ava looked up at the door when the knock echoed through the room. "I'll get it. I bet it's the celebrity. What is she even famous for?" She asked as she approached the door and opened it slightly.

"Dunno, some youtube star. I never pay attention to that crap." She headed to her room and changed into a pair of light blue jeggings instead, and came out, fluffing her hair as she glanced in the mirror. "Ah, that's so much better." She said with a nod. She then grabbed her purse and made sure she had what she called her Survival Kit in it. She was used to weird situations, so she kept a few books of sigils to burn, a few little bottles of herbs, a note book, a few pens and pencils, 2 pencil sharpeners, 2 big erasers and a bunch of the pencil end ones, 2 pocket knives, a sharpening stone, and a few guitar picks. Along with that some earbuds and an extra phone charger.

"Hello," the man said with a slightly flat voice, "my name is Lance. I will be your tour guide this afternoon."

Kyoko huffed and crossed her arms. Was that really so hard to say to me?

"So whaddya guys think? Go off on our own or weird kinda creepy stiff tour guide? I say go off on our own. I bet this place is just chock FULL of secrets!" She played with her pansexual pride bracelet. "Who knows what we can find!"

Ava cocked her head to the side. "Guide? Is that included?" She asked, curious. Having a guide would be cool. He could point out all the cool stuff about the hotel and show them where everything was but she also kinda wanted to figure it out on her own.

Diara followed the girls out of the room. "Maybe," He signed. "I'm okay with whatever you two want to do." A tour guide could show them everything they need to know, but going on their own could be more fun. Diara just wanted to enjoy himself on the trip.

"Well, Diara's chill with whatever we decide…ya know. Everyone here is so smiley. Let's follow the Tour Guide, see if we can weed out a few secrets, get something. He seems creepy enough…okay. So. Since I am used to vain girls with an attitude, I'll go ask Kyoko to join us, is everyone cool with that?" She asked, looking around.

Ava nodded. "Guide and then if we don't like it we can sneak off." She said.

"Perfect." She headed over to Kyoko's room, pushing past the creepy guide whose smile leered at her. She knocked on the door. "Hello? Miss Kyoko? Hi yes I'm Evelyn, one of the other peeps on this trip. Uhm, a tour guide appeared at our door, inviting us all to go with him, and the group and I were wondering if you'd like to join us. We were also thinking of getting food and possibly hitting the arcade or the pool." She said with a sweet smile.

Kyoko's mouth parted slightly as she looked at the door next to them in shock, including the tour guide– Lance, who's broad smile had faltered.

She cleared her throat. "We can hear you. You do know that right?"

(We thought she was still in there, or at least i did) "We?" Evelyn questioned, and shrugged. "Well anyways, the offer still stands. You wanna come? We may not be as high prestige as you are but hey, things could be fun." She offered a smile and headed back towards the group, looking back at Kyoko.

"She probably won't come. Wouldn't want to sully herself with the presence of us," Diara signed. He leaned against a wall and waited for the group to make their decision.
