Welcome to Murder Island (Anthro, NSFW, Spoopy)

@neutralgrey  
“Excellent.” He smiled. “Annabelle, you go on down and greet them. I have to prepare something.”
 
@Dave33333  
Dash stepped forward and opened the doors, letting herself, Fluttershy, Dana, Alex, and Gerry inside.
 
“Whoa…”
 
It was a rather elegant mansion, with a large staircase in front of them, deep magenta rugs, and what appeared to be a golden chandelier.

@TheSadScubaDiver  
Annabelle made her way to the entrance to greet the guests, as she walked down the steps the guests could see that she was wearing a long red dress with matching heels.
 
“Good evening everyone, my husband will be down shortly but in the meantime feel free to make yourself comfortable.”

@neutralgrey  
“Oh?” Dash turned her head to Annabelle. “And just who are you?” she asked half-suspiciously, though admittedly finding the mare attractive in her dress.

@TheSadScubaDiver  
“I’m the wife of your gracious host, also the one who’s partially responsible for arranging this whole thing. So you’re welcome.” She said with a slight smirk

@neutralgrey  
“Oh.” Dash blushed a little, rubbing the back of her head. “Right. Um…”
 
This was an awkward situation.
 
“…I’m Rainbow Dash! You’ve probably heard of me.” She held out a hand to shake. “What’s yours?”

Fluttershy was fairly quiet amongst the group, just taking in the surroundings of the mansion to keep a mental note of where everything was. It seemed like a place a pony could easily get lost in by themselves, so it was best to remember some familiar tidbits about the home of Mr. and Ms. Price while they were all here.
 
 
@neutralgrey  
Speaking of, there she stood before them, elegant and beautiful as she could be for a lady of her status. Yet something felt a bit ominous about Annabelle that Fluttershy couldn’t shake from her. Like standing before Princess Luna at her throne, the pegasus felt like she should be cautious with her words before her.
 
“Um…M-Ms. Price, I presume.” she said to Annabelle with a bow. “My name is Fluttershy. Thank you for inviting us here.” She gave a quick glance to Alexander to strike up a conversation. “And this is my date, Alex…guess, we should thank you for bringing us together, should we?”

@TheSadScubaDiver  
“Annabelle Price, a pleasure to meet you.” She shakes her hand.
 
 
@Four Tet  
“A pleasure to meet you both, though my husband is the one you should thank.”
 
(Sorry for the long wait guys)

@neutralgrey  
“Yes, your husband…” Gerry frowned. “Do you have any idea why he did this?”
 
“And this is Gerry,” Dash added, shaking her head. “He… doesn’t like this island. Though honestly, I can’t blame him. It kind of gives me the creeps a bit.”

@TheSadScubaDiver
 
@neutralgrey  
Dana kept silent, semi-nervous.

@Dave33333  
“…” Dash was quiet for a bit, sensing how nervous Dana was. “…And this is Dana! She’s, uh, kind of my date for this.” She put an arm around Dana.

@TheSadScubaDiver  
Dana blushed, but it helped her calm down.
 
Dana: H-Hi…

@TheSadScubaDiver  
“Why don’t you ask my husband yourself?”
 
 
@Dave33333  
“Good evening.”

[OOC: I have barely been acknowledged.]  
[OOC: I would also assume by now that it truly is way too late to introduce a character or two.]

@HatOfDisguise  
(Oh…actually, I’d be okay with it. Still ultimately left up to the host of this RP, though I’m pretty sure we’re gonna need a ‘rescue party’ at some point!)
 
 
@neutralgrey  
“Oh, yes, we haven’t got to meet Mr. Price yet.” the pegasus added on. “I mean, we’ve seen him before in pictures, but not in person.” A small thought crossed her mind as she took another look at the mansion’s interior. “Unless we’re having a tour of this place…I-I mean if we have time. Otherwise, um…let’s eat?”

@Four Tet  
“Go ahead and sit at the table or explore a bit if you want, you’re free to do what you want.”

@HatOfDisguise  
(We could add you. Problem is, we’re currently inside and it’s night, so if you were to show up, it would have to be the next day, most likely.)
 
@neutralgrey  
Just then, they all heard a door slam up above, followed by the sound of distant footsteps on the floorboards. They seemed to be getting closer, too.

@TheSadScubaDiver  
Annabelle was startled a bit at hearing the door slam

@Four Tet  
[OOC: Thank you.]
 
@TheSadScubaDiver  
[OOC: It is up to you how and when I come in, I think.]

The footsteps came closer, and closer… and then, descending the staircase and dressed in a fancy black and white suit, was the host himself. It may not have been clear that it was he, but as soon as they heard his voice, it was instantly recognizable.
 
“Well,” he began. “I see that you have all made it here safely?”

@TheSadScubaDiver  
Dana gently nodded.

@TheSadScubaDiver  
“Most of us…” Fluttershy said with nervous smile, quietly breathing a sigh of relief as they all saw the main stallion approaching them. “Still, thank you for inviting us, Mr. Price.”
 
She gave the classy stallion a bow as he approached the group, feeling it was necessary in his presence. Price seemed like a stallion who, although charming and well-mannered on the outside, lived by a strict code of classmanship. Not greeting the stallion in his presence seems like an insult to Fluttershy, so she didn’t took any chances with him.
 
“Sorry if I caused any trouble by showing up so late.”

@Dave33333  
@Four Tet  
“Oh, do not worry–it is very much okay.” Mr. Price smiled upon catching a glimpse of his wife. “Ah, Annabelle! I see you have already met our guests.” He put an arm around Annabelle. “This is Annabelle Price, my wife.”
 
“Yeah, we know,” Dash replied.
 
“My, my! Such an attitude.” Mr. Price looked at Dash. “You must be Rainbow Dash, the athlete superstar we have heard so much about.” He tried to shake hands with her, but she drew back, glaring at him with the force of a thousand suns.
 
Price looked to be about 48 years old, but in relatively good health. He was 6’4”, had a coat of grey with a brown mane and tail, plus a nice mustache to match. His most noticeable feature, however, were his piercing green eyes. He turned to Dash’s compainion next.
 
“And I assume that you are Dana, the race car driver?” He reached for Dana’s hand and lifted it, planting a kiss on the knuckles.

@TheSadScubaDiver  
Dana withdrew her hand very quickly.
 
Dana: P-Please don’t do that…

@TheSadScubaDiver
 
@Dave33333  
A nervous chuckle came from the pegasus as she watched Dash and Dana’s behavior towards Mr. Price. “Um, you have to forgive them, Mr. Price!” she said with a nervous tone as she stepped in to take a hold of Dana’s hand. “We’re all quite tense since we found out this island is…well, cursed.”
 
@neutralgrey  
She gave Alex a glance out the side of her eyes, hinting that she could use a hand in not blowing the whole plan out the gate. It’s one thing to find the host of the island suspicious. It’s another when you got someone figured out all wrong, resulting in getting kicked off the island entirely.

@Dave33333  
@Four Tet  
“Oh…” Mr. Price rubbed the back of his head. “I truly am sorry, madam. I suppose my manners are more old-fashioned than what you are accustomed to?” He seemingly ignored the part about the island being cursed.
 
“But yes… You are Fluttershy, I presume? The friend of Rainbow Dash. One hears a lot about you and your friends all over Equestria.” He then turned to Alex. “Let me guess: Alexander, the doctor?” He reached out a hand to shake Alex’s.
