DESCRIPTION

A ridiculous mansion in North Carolina, moved in since May 27, 2019 — still ostentatious like their old home, but white and airy and bright compared to the claustrophobic Victorian house they grew up in. It was mainly afforded by Allison & Ben's paychecks, and Allison leaning into her imPort celebrity status for that juicy $$$.

( Important note: Despite the photos, the house is actually very bare furniture-wise. They were sloooowly filling it out with belongings to make it look more lived-in, but it's hard to furnish a place like this on top of that rent, man. )

As of May 1, 2020, with the rest of their family Ported out, Luther and Allison moved to a smaller Nonah house. They still technically have the larger property, hanging onto it in the event that their family returns en masse, but they're subletting the mansion to several NPCs for now.

Current full-time inhabitants: Luther, Diego, Allison, Klaus, Five, Ben NPC subletters
Occasional drop-ins: Vanya
Ported out: Diego, Klaus, Five, Ben, Vanya

BEN'S ROOM.

[the_horror]

Dark, Emo and eclectic is Ben's style.

Blacks and blues mostly, with some splashes or red here and there. The room is darker then his other siblings rooms, white walls are covered by tapestries, paintings he's found in yard sales, or book shelves.

His bed is large and in the middle of the room on a platform. that platform takes up a large space of the room. You step up on it to get to a low seated bed full of thick blankets and too many pillows. the pillows spill off onto the platform most of the time.

Floor pillows are constantly being added to the room in general. A stack of them sit by a window. A low seated round table next to it for tea and books to read. trunks are also used as tables and book shelves.

books. Books everywhere. Over time he will have a large collection of books that have been given to him, collected from thrift stores or used book stores (they smell best), or just mystical finds.

Star (black cat) and Izzy (pink creature snake thing) will have their old apartment tree house to climb and play in, but S curved wall hangings in red will be hung on the walls as well, so they can both jump from platform to platform.

Rugs upon rugs will be collected in various shades of blue, black or red and placed over the hardwood flooring, to dampen sound and to keep his feet warm.

His computer desk is heavy wood and metal, sturdy, two monitors and editing software. It's adored with trinkets and things collected over time. His back will 'face' a bookshelf that hols things people have given him over time, so they are on display when he makes videos. This too holds items from swear-ins, parties and gatherings he has gathered as trinkets and keepsakes.

Seating: One swing chair in a corner near the window and floor pillows, made perfect for reading in. the floor pillows and beanbag chair, or the bed and pile of pillows there. Have you noticed he has a lot of soft pillows yet?

Morbid pillows, a note: You can sleep when you are dead is a LIE, so of course he had to have the stupid pillow. The good Haunting and the ghost shapes ones are too, morbid of him but he loves them. there is a octopus pillow in his room somewhere as well.

Pictures are not exact but an aesthetic of what might be his room.
