now i rock a house party at the drop of a hat.
It's around five o'clock in the morning when the citizens of Taxon find themselves inexplicably transported into rooms within the Sanctuary. Doors are left open and beds unmade, food abandoned and lights left on, still shining brightly for those who were awake and are no longer present. The Extras don't seem to notice the captive population's sudden disappearance, continuing on with their business as usual.
For those relocated, though, it's an entirely different story.
They find themselves in rooms with white, alabaster walls that gives them an almost too-clean feeling, as if the entire place was sanitized prior to their arrival. The room assignments are seemingly random, people placed on floors with those they don't know and don't like, people they would rather not be within twenty feet of. It matters not, for what's done is done and cannot be undone. For those who happen to have pets, they'll find them waiting for their owners in the rooms as if nothing is out of the ordinary.
The only thing the captives have managed to bring with them is the clothes on their back and the tablets. On them, they find the following message:
( ooc | sorry for the delay in posting! your mods were otherwise occupied with things of the irl variety this morning. THIS BE A PARTY POST, Y'ALL. room assignments are here, and refer back to the sott post proper for any additional information. please contact us with any questions/concerns you may have in regards to this plot. ♥ )

SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE PLEASE ENJOY YOUR STAY WHILE WE ADDRESS CERTAIN TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIESUnfortunately for those who try to find a means of escape, they'll discover there is none. Leaving the Sanctuary will prove to be as difficult as leaving Taxon itself. However, if one heads down the right corridor and the right floor, they'll find something else entirely lurking in their midst...

[ visual ]
[ yeah, guess who she ran into 8| ]
About the same as you. Where are you, anyway?
[ because she is hesitant to say anything over the tablets. ]
[ visual ]
On the fifth floor, the one with the library. Do you want me to meet you on yours?
[ visual ]
Doesn't matter to me. Leaving my room seems to take a bit more effort than I'd like right now, but... I do need to make sure you're okay.
[ sob, her protectiveness is kicking in. ]
[ visual | locked ]
I'll come meet you. What floor are you on? And what room?
[ visual | locked ]
13-04. Just... be careful. It's a little strange out there, but I guess that's just Taxon's standards.
[ visual | locked ]
I'll be right up. Need anything from the kitchens, while I'm out?
[ visual | locked ]
Nope. I think I'm good.
[ because right now she just needs to make sure elena's okay. and that katherine's long gone. she'll just be lying on her bed for now with the door closed, but elena's welcome to come right on in. ]
it's over before it has begun;
Jenna? It's me.
[ a pause, and then she adds: ]
Elena.
[ it occurs to her that they should probably set code words in place, especially since katherine's been invited into the house. ]
it's over before it has begun;
Guess they did us the favor of letting the pets come with us.
it's over before it has begun;
[ elena slips inside, setting charlotte on the floor once the door is closed. the kitten sniffs at jenna's feet for a few moments before going off to explore the rest of the room. jenna might notice that elena's hair is a bit damp and that she's wearing different pajamas than the ones she went to bed in, but rather than explaining that, elena turns to her aunt, wearing an expression of concern. ]
Did something happen?
[ getting down to business. ]
it's over before it has begun;
[ she knows how well dogs and cats get along. watching the kitten seems to be enough of a distraction for her. she notices the wet hair, but she's not going to comment. if elena wants to take a shower, it's not her business to really care. being clean is good. she doesn't want to know more unless there's a chance that stefan is playing with her niece. then, there will be hell to pay.
eventually, she just nods and glances back up at elena. ]
Yeah, something happened. I met Katherine.
[ which was somehow much more frightening than she'd expected. ]
it's over before it has begun;
How? In the hallways? Is she on this floor?
it's over before it has begun;
She decided to pay me a visit earlier. I think she was looking for Stefan, but she's not here anymore.
[ and jenna's necklace is still securely around her neck and there are no bite marks, so it can't have gone too badly. ]
It was just surreal, meeting someone who looks and sounds exactly like you but is the complete opposite.
it's over before it has begun;
What did she say to you? What did she do?
it's over before it has begun;
Nothing really. We had a very nice aunt and niece conversation...
[ pause. ]
-that was laced with tension you could've cut with a knife. And by the way, these rooms don't operate under the invitation system.
it's over before it has begun;
it's over before it has begun;
it's over before it has begun;
Do you want to switch rooms, maybe? Move in with me, or see if we can find a single?
it's over before it has begun;
I don't think she's going to do anything, Elena. In a place like this, with everyone so close together, I don't think she's stupid enough to try anything.
[ no, katherine had come off as particularly cunning. she wouldn't press her luck in this situation. but if elena's really going to worry about things, she'll go along with it. ]
it's over before it has begun;
[ it's a good thing elena doesn't know about katherine having compelled jenna to stab herself in the stomach back at home, otherwise she wouldn't have even bothered telling stefan about it before she went looking for katherine with a makeshift stake.
jenna reaches out to touch her arm, and elena sighs, wiping harshly at her eyes. ]
I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I just...You're the only family I have here, Jenna. You're one of the only parts of it I have left.
it's over before it has begun;
[ now it's elena's turn to need a hug. jenna will just pull her niece closer. it's her job to keep elena safe, to comfort her when she needs it. ]
Has she hurt Caroline here?
it's over before it has begun;
[ elena curls into the hug as she begins to cry. she still feels awful about this, still wishes something could have been done to prevent it. ]
Caroline was in an accident, and Damon gave her his blood to heal her. Katherine found out about it and she...she killed her. So she'd go into transition.
it's over before it has begun;
So that's what happened...
[ she was a little curious about what had happened and it's a little frightening that katherine would do something like that. ]
But that's another vampire on your side. Our side. [ the bright side's a little dim, yes, but it's still there. ] If you're that worried about me, I'll stick close by until we can get back to the house, okay?
it's over before it has begun;
Okay.
it's over before it has begun;
It's gonna be okay.
[ katherine won't mess things up for any of them. jenna will do anything she can to make sure of that. ]
Do you want to go find a room now?
[ once elena's calmed down anyway. jenna will just hold on tight until elena wants to move. ]
