“Every prince is a fantasy, The witch is inside of me. Her poison will wash away the memory.” ☆BETTER TO PRETEND The day has finally come for Fairy Trial filming to begin! No matter if they’ve arrived by limo or taken the bus, everyone involved gets star treatment as the makeup and costume departments go wild with the models they’ve been given. At least Sevetop has good accomodations. While it’s a chaotic and crowded scene, everyone still manages to fit in the two buildings Sevetop has dedicated for Fairy Trial’s purposes in this area. It’s one of the only points today that anyone will have a chance to everyone else. After all, once everyone involved in a particular challenge is done with, they’re hurried out the door and to their particular destination. Every challenge has a different area it takes place in, after all. For some pair ups, they’ll find themselves merely being escorted to another set on Sevetop’s huge property. Others will find themselves being escorted to some very classy transportation and taken outside of Vista City to special obstacle courses that simply wouldn’t fit anywhere else. On the bright side, once the actual filming is done no matter the location, the crew involved seems to relax considerably. Whether they’ve done great or not, Heroes and Royals are treated to dinner and a change out of their costumes. Good job, everyone. “We kill the lights and put on a show. It's all a lie, but you'd never know. The star will shine, And then it will fall, And you will forget it all.”

A throaty chuckle rustles from the shadows: this Royal fascinates and pleases him, then after a pause, he speaks again, this time his voice coming from a different side of the room. "Mmmm, but every villain or antagonist needs a worthy opponent and vice versa: may there be such opponents in this challenge," he says, with a hint of relish. "And as they say, one man's villain is another man's hero, since every story worth telling has more than one angle to it."

He draws in a breath quietly, doing his best not to give away his position. "If audiences are consistent, they like stories where the heroes get hurt in some way shape or forms. 'Kill your darlings', as one writer put it famously," he replies, sliding along one wall, making himself a moving target.

"Ha! Got it in one, smart guy! I wasn't even going that far, but I'm not complaining. Nothing like a good tragedy to liven up a plot!

You're right, Mr. Macabre-
The most interesting narratives are the ones with a little element called DANGER!"

He pushes the button.

"Guess we'll see if our viewers count you as one of those darlings~"

Don't disappoint him now.
There won't be much warning on how quickly the security team will sweep into the room. Given how the set is decorated like a museum for the purpose of the heist storyline, there should be plenty for Muraki to hide behind, at least.

Another throaty chuckle, then he replies. "We'll say that I'm not a man who goes by half measures, and I welcome a like-minded soul," he says, his voice taking on a dark note of delight and contained excitement.

Footsteps clatter into the hall and beams from flashlights pan over some of the display cases. Sariel has just enough time to duck behind and beside a suit of armor, posing himself almost in the same pose, in a bid to blend in with his surroundings at least for the moment...
