Author's Note: so this chapter is mostly just some explanations for how certain things are gonna be handled. But besides that, I forgot to mention at the end of the last chapter what will be played on the projector. Well in case anyone is interested it will include movies, DustTube (you can probably guess what I'm talking about) videos, popular music/music videos, video games, some original stuff, and even some fanfiction assuming I can get permission from the author. With that done let the exposition [I know that I probably used that incorrectly] begin! [btw if you don't care for word garbage scroll to the end for a quick summary and you can scroll to the next chapter, sorry about this chapter]
As the crowd funneled into the theater people gasped at the high ceiling dotted with chandeliers. Weiss whispered to Ruby, "See I told you we were heading to a formal event."
After everyone arrived into the lobby the captain spoke, "ahem, can everyone hear me?", people nodded or replied an affirmative. "Good, well welcome to the Rolls theater. You were all of course formally invited, but despite a quarter of everyone dressed for a formal event, this is, in fact, an informal event. As such we have some of your casual clothing prepared in the theater, and before anyone raises a concern no we did not do anything illegal, it was a simple couple of favors that I pulled with an expert tailor that can make clothing with a general description of your body types.", he paused to catch his breath, "I know that it still may seem odd but we insist that you all enjoy your experience here, and from experience I know that is almost impossible to do with fancy dress clothing on."
Almost all of the concerned went back to patiently waiting to go watching a movie, now of course also waiting to go change as well. "With that said, the movies that will be played here will be from across the multiverse, and before anyone says anything I know what I just said and I assure you I'm not crazy. The stars of which will be you guys, and before you ask it's simply your lives from a different universe captured as a film."
He paused for breath, "Moreover, as of now time in you're universe has been stopped for you guys which mean that as long as you're in here you cannot age and that when you arrive back it will only be the next day but until you head back which I assure you will be at any point of your choosing, Time is effectively frozen."
He paused for a second before continuing, "Now for those who want to stay longer than a single 'night' here, we have quarters provided for you all require sleep and the rooms windows have been augmented with light screens and will provide your bodies with the correct cycle needed for proper sleep."
A hand went up, "Yes, Miss Schnee?", he asked. "This all seems a bit excessive for some movies, sir, what is the reason for all this?". She asked.
He answered, "A valuable question, well simply put if I'm not mistaken the Vytal Festival is coming up soon, correct?", everyone nodded, "Well the stress of such an event can be overwhelming and as such, I decided that this would be a great way for you all to relax for a night, or well as long as you want. At the end of the first ten films shown I'll also have some new rooms set up for everyone but until then I'll finish up my speech and everyone can shuffle off to the main show area and we can begin our first showings."
He began again, "Food, as mentioned in the invitation, will be provided for free and at a limitless amount, you can order it with a notepad provided to each of you in the main showroom. Also when we get the arenas set up you can duel amongst each other at your leisure until the next showing, which we assure you all plenty of time will be provided for you all. Now sleep, while it won't be entirely necessary, it is still recommended for anyone and everyone but the time between times when you might want to get some sleep will be further apart than natural time spans. "
He began his final points as he sees that the crowd notice three of the guests unique status', "I see you all have noticed some of our guests, well simply put I did invite them knowing full well their criminal status, and no you may not arrest them or fight them outside of the arena. I full well know your concerns and let me put them to rest by saying that the theater is plenty large enough for you all you sit away from them and you need not interact with them if you don't want to, but you will NOT fight them in here not because I have some magical powers in here, but because I want everyone to enjoy their time here and not spend it glaring at the three black sheep. With that said please get ready and the first showing will begin in an hour!"
The Captain walks off the stage and leaves everyone alone to get ready. Of course, all the people who showed up in dress clothes changed into more comfortable outfits. Everyone else went to explore or order some food or drink in the showroom.
In the projector room
"That seems to have gone well for you Cap. now what?", James asked
The Captain replied, "now, we let them get ready and start the first film in an hour"
James nodded and looked to the first of many films in store for the people down in the showroom, and smiled.
Author's note: I know that this chapter was mostly just word garbage, but I feel that if I don't include this it simply wouldn't make a lick of sense as to how things will be handled inside the theater. That and I know that somehow some one is gonna complain and for the most part this is insurance against that complaint. Anyhow next chapter will be the first actual showing, can't wait to write the chapter!
Summary: food will be limitless, people can sleep, stars of the show will be the whole cast so the character of focus can be anyone (unlike most react fics that I have read where Jaune is the Main character of focus), there will be a fighting arena (Duals and team fights yay!), more rooms will be announced in the future, and clothing will be provided for the cast as they request it. That's it if I feel that I need to add or change anything it will be done at an as needed basis and mention by the chapter.
