'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).

THE ORIGINAL INFOPOST | QUESTIONS AND INQUIRIES HOTLINE
islandshore: (amused)

[Riku isn't looking for booze by any means, but when he spots Heather in her suit and mask, he wanders over and fights back a laugh. This... is totally a disaster waiting to happen. He can feel it.]

You sure this is a good idea?
foolishwren: guess that makes me HOTTER than U (you're cooler than me??)

[personal profile] foolishwren 2013-04-07 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[The frozen grin on the mask turns towards Riku, although there's a perfectly real grin behind it.]

Why not?

I didn't see any rules sayin' we couldn't bring our own drinks.

I just happen to be the sharing type.

Plus, not selling to kids or putting it in the punch, soooo...

[SHE DARES THE ELITE FOUR TO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT. ... Actually she doesn't, she hopes they don't even notice. :I; But yeah.]
islandshore: (leeean)

[personal profile] islandshore 2013-04-07 05:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey, as long as people don't go overboard, it's not bad in theory. I just wonder if anyone's gonna drink more than their fill. Imagine if some kinda drunken brawl broke loose...

[He shakes his head. Really, though, he's got no qualms with this, and that should be at least somewhat clear by the smirk on his face.]
foolishwren: it's a game and i'm winning (being gay isn't a choice)

[personal profile] foolishwren 2013-04-07 06:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Honestly, pretty sure there's gonna be a drunken brawl at some point no matter what. I can't be the only person who brought booze to this thing.

[She doesn't look terribly upset about the idea though. It ain't a party until some schnockered shithead starts throwin' punches, after all.]
islandshore: (cocky)

[personal profile] islandshore 2013-04-12 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
Makes me wonder if anyone brought popcorn...

[Okay, so maybe that's a cruel joke, but hey. It's human nature to find amusement in the silly actions of others, right?]
foolishwren: ;) (*winks but a duck noise happens*)

[personal profile] foolishwren 2013-04-14 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
If no one did, I'm pretty sure I saw a bowl of it big enough for a toddler to drown in on the snack table.

[No worries. Heather practically lives off of finding humor in awful things. It's how she survived Silent Hill.]
islandshore: (snap)

[personal profile] islandshore 2013-04-15 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe I should make a preemptive strike on the popcorn bowl just in case...

[Wouldn't want too much competition if a brawl actually does break out!]
foolishwren: Looks like SOMEONE hasn't tried finger but hole (HEH...)

[personal profile] foolishwren 2013-04-15 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Better hurry. You know how drunken brawls are. Always break out when you least expect 'em.
