OOC/MuseVerse: Inkwell Party!

[clockwork_doc]

When he's not roleplaying in the Rift or the Nexus, the Doc Brown known as "Clockwork" lives in the Inkwell Bar and Grill, the local restaurant and hangout for his mun Victoria's muses. Clockwork also happens to own the place, so it's very easy for him to conscript it for his birthday. Anyone entering today will find that the bar has a wide selection of various cakes on it for people to sample, along with freezers full of ice cream. Clockwork himself is seated at the bar with a slice of chocolate cake, smiling at anyone who comes in.

Anybody's welcome to drop by, either just to say "hi" or to grab some cake. (One warning -- you might want to avoid the cake on the far left of the bar. Mrs. Plum made that one, and being a dead cook from "Corpse Bride" prone to putting body parts in her meals. . . .)

"We're used to that," TeenDoc says, with a smirk in Victor's direction.

Victor blushes and pulls at his tie a little. "Like you're any better with your Jules Verne," he retorts.

"Didn't say I was."

"Or a basic list of what to call who," Clockwork says, looking around the group. "Just so we don't get anyone mixed up."

Farley nods. "Right. Now, the blond in the gray dress is Anya, ex-vengeance demon and current dæmon. The man talking with the me holding the grocery bags is Alexander Claymore, my uncle. He flushes - awkward.

"The man behind him who looks like his twin is James Brown, and the woman with him is Andrea Delaney. The couple behind them are Wadsworth (I never did find out what his last name is), and Lillian Delacroix."

"The blond in the white dress is Margo Lane, Dr. Reinhardt Lane's daughter. And yeah, she knows what happened." He frowns slightly - why isn't Lamont here? Then again, that might not necessarily be a bad thing...

"The redhead is Veeken. (Don't ask, I never really figured out why she picked the name myself.) The men she's talking with are, well, a Tim Curry and Christopher Lloyd. Alternate universes." He shrugs. "The woman in the hoodie, of course, is Marie."

"The me with the grocery bags is the first version of me to show up, apparently. Usually, he just gets called Farley, but if that confuses you..."

"The first me that entered is called Claymore Chronicles Farley (or CC-Farley). The other me talking to Alex is Tales of the Used Farley. (Don't ask - now's really not the best time...)"

"The last me..." Rift!Farley frowns a little. "Actually I think he's new - something about a story called "After the Rift"..."

Exposition. Gotta love it.

Clockwork nods along. He blinks a little as Rift!Farley points out Alex. "That's Alex? I thought that was Professor Plum." He lifts an eyebrow. "So Alex looks like me, huh?" He smirks at Rift!Farley a little. "Well, that might explain a few things."

"I thought Wadsworth WAS his last name," Clockwork comments. "And James Brown?" It could be a coincidence, but given the mun, he doesn't think so.

He blinks again as Rift!Farley points out Margo. Why she'd even be here. . . . He mentally makes a note to watch the shadows a bit more closely.

Clockwork waves at Marie before turning his attention to the actor-daemons. "Weird," he mutters, shaking his head. "Then again, what isn't these days."

Clockwork smiles at Rift!Farley. "Nah -- it's the same with us, for the most part. NonTrilogy's usually called Doc because he was the first universe. Then there's VampDoc, VampDoc2, DocWolf, OckDoc, TeenDoc, RolePlayDoc, and HatterDoc. And me -- I'm called Clockwork because of --" A hiss of steam. "Well, it should be obvious."

"So there's Farley, CC-Farley, Tales-Farley, AtR-Farley, and you, Rift-Farley." Clockwork nods. "I think I've got it."
