'Cause Baby, Tonight The DJ's Got Us Falling In Love Again...

Who: EVERYONE
Where: Scenic Tohjo Falls!
When: Friday, April 5 through Saturday, April 6
Summary: WHAT SUMMARY DO YOU NEED, IT'S POKEPROM
Rating: May vary by thread, please mark accordingly!
Log:

It's here! It's here! Clair's first-ever (and, Lance hopes, last-ever) Pokemon Prom is here, coming to you straight from scenic Tohjo Falls! You've packed your bags, you've hitched your rides, and now you're taking your first steps in to a super swank palatial PokeManor where, prior to now, only the pseudo-legendary best of the best had ever tread. Gosh, that must make you pretty special, huh? (Well, you and everyone else in the massive crowd that arrived along with you, that is.) Of course, you're all destined for greatness. But at the moment, your more immediate destiny is forty-eight hours of fun.

So get going!

☆ YOU ARE HERE ☆





KEY:
BLUE areas are where the bulk of the party's events will be located! As you can see, the festivities will be taking place largely outdoors, and the grounds will reflect that; there'll be the usual decorations of pretty floral arrangements, little lights, things like that. Think garden party!
GREEN areas are where guests will be staying overnight! Unfortunately, you'll be sleeping-bagging it up, since this is a house party and not a hotel party, but this is where you'll be given space to leave your possessions, claim some sleeping room, and generally crash for the night once the festivities do you in. (Note: you're welcome to try to sleep elsewhere, but Clair might catch you and disapprove. You don't want that, do you?)
RED areas are unfortunately off-limits to guests! If asked about them, anyone will tell you that those are the rooms and areas that the Elite Four have claimed for themselves, and they're sealed off tight. Please don't try to break into them anyway; you'll only be caught and punished.

AREA A is the designated Indoor Ballroom area, for the people who would prefer to class it up a little more than just your standard garden party. There's a big skylight, hardwood floors, tasteful artwork, and classy music — a little more upscale than the shenanigans going on outside, for the people who'd rather that kind of thing.
AREA B will be the area of interest for anyone hoping to sneak a little Pokemon research on the side: this is the Library/Gallery area of the house. While most of it is your standard "tall shelves of ancient identical books" fare, there are a few points of interest — a sculpture of Lugia, a painting of the Ecruteak City skyline before the Brass Tower burned down, some stone etchings of what might be Fossil Pokemon, and so on. Guests are welcome to look around a little, but burying themselves in research the whole time will be highly frowned upon, and you'll be politely encouraged to leave the library alone and go rejoin the festivities if you hole up in there for too long.
AREA C is...well, the Parking Lot. More importantly, it's where you take your Pokemon battles if you simply gotta get your battle on; keep it out and away from the house, please, and try not to make too much of a mess. Skirmishes, sorties, and sparring will be tolerated here and here alone. Do it anywhere else and you'll be facing some very displeased hosts.
AREA D is the Elite Four's Trophy Room. Please be quiet and respectful if you come up here to have a look around; it's a solemn kind of place. Here you'll find various collections of badges, ribbons, awards, and trophies put on display, with one wall devoted to each member of the Elite Four. Of particular note is a glass case with a broken Ultra Ball mounted inside; the brass plaque attached claims it's the ball Lorelei was using when she almost caught Articuno. On a lighter note, there are also pictures of the Elite Four themselves — your standard Official Portraits™, sure, but also some framed candids of them in various configurations hanging out with their Pokemon and engaged in various activities around the house (Agatha making waffles, Lance and Bruno clowning around in the pool, stuff like that).

[Already being worn out from the crowd and noise of the ballroom, GYM LEADER SABRINA can be found outside, keeping to herself as she sits near the pool in a lounge chair. With her Espeon's head resting in her lap, she is content to watch the Water Pokemon go about their playing together.

Yet despite distancing herself from the main party, she hardly looks unapproachable. In fact she might even appear as if she is expecting someone to come speak to her.]

[Parties aren't really Mayu's best interest to begin with and ever since her sister went home without her, she really doesn't want to be at this party right now. However, she couldn't really say no to Joonhae bout going...but he didn't say she had to be with him the whole time.]

[She was wandering around the resort when she saw Sabrina by the pool. Mayu knew who she was since she's been living in Saffron for quite a while but she never actually got to talk to her. Mayu's not the type to go up and talk to people...but its Sabrina.]

Um, Hello?
these_guys: (sabrina)

[personal profile] these_guys 2013-04-06 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
[Sabrina raises her head upon hearing the greeting, giving Mayu a quiet once over as she does.]

Hello there. [A pause.] ... you do not look as if you are enjoying yourself. Not a fan of social gatherings?
togetherforever: (Oh?)

[personal profile] togetherforever 2013-04-06 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
[She shook her head. This woman read her like a book.]

No...not really. This is the first time I've been to one, actually.

[She looks at the Espeon that was in her lap.] Is that an evolution of Eevee's?
these_guys: (sabrina)

[personal profile] these_guys 2013-04-06 05:41 am (UTC)(link)
Is that so? I confess I am not a regular of such larger gatherings myself.

[As if it wasn't obvious, given she's hiding out here. In response to her question, she lightly places a hand on the Espeon's head before nodding.] Indeed. He is the Psychic evolution. ... however I'm certain that much would be obvious if you are aware of what gym I am in charge of.
togetherforever: (Moe)

[personal profile] togetherforever 2013-04-06 06:12 am (UTC)(link)
[She nods.]

I've lived in Saffron for a while so I am aware. [Because otherwise, she wouldn't really care for gym battles.]

Is he nice?

You live in Saffron? I see... Perhaps we shall meet again when we both return home. [Whether she means at the gym or simply around town is hard to tell.]

As for him... [Sabrina pets him a bit more, before the Espeon lets out a small cry.] His personality has always been reserved yet affectionate... Do you wish to pet him?
togetherforever: (Just happy)

[personal profile] togetherforever 2013-04-08 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
Um...yes. [That was kind of a lie since she's not technically planning to return to the city for personal reasons. Doesn't mean she wouldn't want that though.]

[Mayu hesitated but reached her hand out to pet the Espeon. If it wasn't her her inability to express her feelings, she would've squealed at the touch of the fox's fur.]

How were you able to evolve him?
starspangledavenger: (Charming bastard)

[Amber, his eevee, makes a lot of noise once spotting the Espeon, wanting badly to go over and meet it, Steve finally gives in and goes over, removing the Eevee from his shoulder and holding her. She looks torn about this, though it might be hard to tell with her still wearing his mask]

Hello, miss. Would it be okay for this girl to meet your lovely Espeon?

[Steve actually has no idea who this woman is, she's just some lady with an Espeon. His Eevee paws in the Espeon's direction, making happy noises, but Steve isn't setting her down til he gets the trainer's okay]

Hm? [Sabrina looks up to Steve, since... wow, you are one big guy. After a moment she nods.] Of course. He would never turn away a fellow Eevee, evolved or otherwise.

[Her Espeon perks its head up proper, hopping off of Sabrina's lap to the ground, letting out a somehow gentlemanly sounding cry of greeting to the Eevee.]
starspangledavenger: (Really? Amused)

[personal profile] starspangledavenger 2013-04-08 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Sets Amber on the ground as she cries out in joy, running over and chirping happily in greeting, Steve takes a seat on a lounge chair, watching]

She just hatched and seems really interested in meeting others like her. Right now, she doesn't know how to hold back, has tackled a few in her excitement, so I thought asking would be best.

[gives her a smile]

Are you having a nice time?
