The bachelors pull up in front of a large Victorian-style house.*



Bachelors (overlapping, from inside limo): What is this place? It looks like--a house. Yeah, a big house. Well, it's not Moonlight Falls.
Kenshin (quietly): Well, it could still be a library.





Marielle waits patiently inside for her suitors to arrive.

Marielle: Oooh! They're here!



Everette: Well, I'd love to come inside and take a look, but there seems to be some sort of rude fairy blocking the way.
Dominic: At least you're not standing right behind him, those giant wings nearly hit me in the face!
Nathaniel: Actually, I rub my wings with lavender oil every morning, so getting hit in the face with my wings would probably improve your odor tenfold! And who doesn't want to smell like me?



Dominic: Hmmm. Interesting. There are a lot of books in here. Maybe this is the library!

Nathaniel: I'm so excited I could float! Oh, wait--I can float!
Everette (muttered): Show-off.

Marielle: Is everyone here?
Bachelors: We're all here.



Marielle: Do you know where we are?
Bachelors: No.



Marielle: This place is called The Magic Manor of Starlight Shores. It is a private club for magicians and the headquarters for the Magic Academy. It is invitation-only, so we were very fortunate to be invited here. This is a special, once-in-a-lifetime experience. It so happens that The Magic Manor is also something of a hotspot for people who appreciate the night and the supernatural. That's what I meant when I said you were going to 'meet me in my world'. This place is a haven for people like me. The magic, of course, is the magic show we are going to be treated to tonight! Three of the Magic Academy's most prominent members will be performing for us, including the President of the Academy, Douglas Lyle, whose portrait hangs in this very room.
Dimitri (quietly to himself, with a small smile): Will you look at that, I was right!



Leopold Confession Cam
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Marielle: Since it's a secret club, there is of course a secret entrance. You may have noticed that there is only one door into this room. To get to the rest of the Manor, we must whisper the password to the owl in the Owl Bookcase.

Marielle: We're in! Follow me, everyone!



Tune in next time to find out what happens inside the Magic Manor!

Well, it looks kind of like a library on the inside! Half-credit for me?  :P

Beautiful spot. Are all the bachelors required to go on the group date then a few others are selected to go on private dates?

Nice first date spot.  Some really nice staging for the shots as well.  It's funny how Nathaniel was third in line heading to the door, but then managed to beat everyone there.  Everette wouldn't do that.   He's a gentleman  :=)

OH my goodness I knew I should have stayed up just a little bit longer. I missed not one but TWO updates! So now I am here at work quietly cracking up at my desk. That was awesome. Leave it to Swirly to taunt you with such a task. I love it.

Definitely screen saver worthy - with your permission of course.  ;D

Now I have to go back to work. I will sneak back and read the next update round my lunch break.

It does indeed. And in fact, there is a library inside. A library of magic. You won't see it because it's restricted to magician members only.

Beautiful spot. Are all the bachelors required to go on the group date then a few others are selected to go on private dates?

Thank you. I refer you back a million years ago to the date card, where Devin explained that there will be a combination of group dates and single dates, and you never know when you'll get to go on a date. On this date, all of their names were on the date card. This does not mean they will all go on every group date. Just that they're all on this one.

Nice first date spot.  Some really nice staging for the shots as well.  It's funny how Nathaniel was third in line heading to the door, but then managed to beat everyone there.  Everette wouldn't do that.   He's a gentleman  :=)

Oh, Pippin. Why do you have to notice that stuff? I re-shot that in a different file. The first shot was better but Everette randomly brought his roses so I re-shot it. Notice something different.

What a great date idea!  That house is awesome.  Kudos to grimsoul!

Thank you! It's a really gorgeous house. Kudos to grimsoul indeed! Which reminds me, I need to message him and tell him his house is up in my story. He wanted to see what I did with the inside. I hop he likes it, it took me weeks.

I hardly think Swimming! counts as an update. Hahaha I thought a bunch of people must have gone to bed right before I posted because I had all these comments and I was expecting a lot more after I posted and then--nothing. I was glad there were more now, when I checked.

By all means! But I recommend you wait until I post the update where they are in PNG form. I have to convert them all before I post it. The JPG is not very well defined. You can use it now though if you want.

What next update! (Panic) Do you mean you didn't read Part I yet or I have to post another chapter before you go to lunch?

The house/library was nice and awesome. The part when Nathaniel block all of the remaining bachelors was fun to read. Go-on Nathaniel, block all of them before they could enter and meet Marielle, take the chance. The bookcase door was mysterious. What will be there in that room? The date has just begun, but i can't wait what will happen next time.

Why Pippin WHY!! :))

No I didn't read Part I when I clicked on the page and saw the house I stopped because I wanted to take my time to read. Can't provide a Platnum commentary from work. So I'll read it when I get home and then comment.

It's not a library, hahaha. It's headquarters for the Magic Academy. A nice lounge and a performance venue for magicians. Can anyone guess what it's based on? It is based on a real building. No fair if you already know because I told you.

Yes, it was an interesting tactic but unfortunately for Team Nathaniel was ineffective at keeping the other bachelors out. He may say otherwise, but I'm sure he was awestruck and Marielle's fantastic beauty. Ooh, what indeed? You'll have to wait to find out!

I'm soooooooo (add three million point five more "o"s) excited for the rest of the First Date, but I won't give anything away!

Thanks for not spoiling, Azo-chan ;)

awwwww! *blush*

Sorry you're sick, glad I can help make it better!

Why Pippin WHY!! :))

Ah yes, good. Looking forward to it!

Thank you! Wait until you see the rest of it! It's a masterpiece. Glad you like the idea, this is definitely one that I developed more after the original idea. It was meant originally to be simply a date to a vampire lounge, but I expanded drastically on it due to some . . . inspiration. I'm glad you enjoyed the confession cams! Hahaha those irrepressible bachelors.

Oh Nathaniel makes me laugh so much.  :D That confession cam was gold.
What an exciting idea for the date. I can't wait to see what else you have in store.
And my my that swimsuit photo...

Bwahahahaha!  *wiping tears away*  I'm sorry, but Leopold's trunks are killing me!

I must know why. I do not understand at all.

Azo-chan knows him just too well. The little tidbits she comes up with, I tell you.
I'll say! You will be amazed!
Indeed. Just wait until you get the whole thing! But one at a time, one at a time--we have to get through the first date first!
