Why Don't You Go Where Fashion Sits?

Who: Participants of the Kalosmas New Year's Event!
Where: The Hotel Richissime, in scenic Lumiose City, Kalos!
When: Wednesday, December 31 - Thursday, January 1!
Summary: After all the shenanigans of Hoennween, it's about time everybody had a chance to relax and unwind, courtesy of some actually benign NPCs. With all the luxuries of the Hotel Richissime waiting at their disposal, that shouldn't be too difficult a prospect!
Rating: PG in general; please mark threads that go higher accordingly!

A FEW OTHER SETTING NOTES:

• At the moment, this log spans the entirety of the New Year's Eve plot, so starters may be posted for any time on either day of the event. If things start getting massive and it looks like an overflow log will be necessary, we'll definitely see about putting one up, and will link it to this one if need be.

• The Event Itinerary can be found here! Remember that participating in this course of events is not mandatory, but it's what will be going on in the grand scheme of things over the course of the event.

• All event participants are being housed on the fourth and fifth floors of the hotel. Your bedrooms are laid out like this; if you participated in our IC Rooming Roulette, you can find your buddy on this table here!

Most activities here will be free! ICly, your characters will use their room cards to "pay" for most things, and the charges will be applied to their room (which of course, they are not paying for personally). Gift shops, parts of the casino, and food not provided as part of the event are not chargeable to your rooms and characters will have to use their own money in those locations.

• Underage characters may use the casino; however, they may be subject to some social scrutiny and side-eyeing in the event that they attempt to get in on one of the high-roller tables.


A NOTE ABOUT USING THREADS ON THIS LOG FOR AC:

Because of how our AC period works (the grace week into January still counting toward December), all threads on this log are valid toward December's AC, regardless of timestamp! However, because the log technically spans two different months and we want to encourage tagging out on it, we have also made this decision:

On this log and this log alone, comment threads timestamped in January (OOCly) that reach AC-length may be used towards January's AC, as well. Therefore, if a thread on this log reaches AC length with 10+ comments timestamped in January, you can use it toward January's AC (assuming the same thread has not already been used to satisfy December's AC).

enjoymyatelier: have fun storming the castle, kayneth (a totally honorable mage duel)

[Well, he'll go ahead and give a polite bow, then! Not too low, of course --- more of a tip of the head, really, but you know.]

Isn't it, though? Ah, it's a shame we can't go outside of the hotel, though, even though there's more than enough to amuse us here. I'd imagine there's even more sights worth seeing... but this is good enough, I suppose.

What all have you done, then? Really, I'm curious.
occultigen: (UNSURE ⚜ fighting crime in a nightie)

[personal profile] occultigen 2015-01-02 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
Beg pardon, my lord — do you mean in the time that we've been here, or...?

["What all have you done" could refer to a lot of things, naturally, some of which she needs to be more dodgy about than others.]

I've certainly managed to keep busy since our arrival, yes!
enjoymyatelier: look at him, gesturing flamboyantly. what a twit. (I'M A GENIUS!)

[personal profile] enjoymyatelier 2015-01-02 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I mean at this event in particular. You've been here in this world for quite some time, so I wouldn't expect you to fill me in on all of that... heavens, I'd bore you to tears if I tried to tell you everything I'd done since I ended up in this world.

[actually he thinks it'd be fascinating.

but you know.]
occultigen: (PONDER ⚜ or i could stab him in the face)

[personal profile] occultigen 2015-01-02 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[KAYNETH...]

Oh, um...I've walked around a bit, of course, so as to become familiar with things, and I also happened into the...

[She purses her lips a little, trying to remember the odd name.]

Spa-Ferry? The baths, with all the attendants and white towels upstairs. They were very kind, and offered to help with my hair and things before this evening.
enjoymyatelier: god damn it is hard to be polite here. (you are straining the limits of my class)

[personal profile] enjoymyatelier 2015-01-03 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
...ah, yes, the... "Spa-Fari."

[there is so much aggravation contained in that one word, he's trying not to sound too mad]

Well, I'm glad you enjoyed it, at any rate. The name aside, it seems to be an exceedingly high-quality establishment, and I don't have any complaints at all.
occultigen: (SMILE ⚜ icons of self-indulgence)

[personal profile] occultigen 2015-01-03 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
Far-ry. That's it, thank you, the Spa-Fari.

[Don't mind her just saying it a few times to try and get the funky sounds right in her head.]

And that's very kind of you, my lord! I haven't the slightest complaint. Everything is so...

[Don't say "expensive", don't say "high-class", what's the right word here...]

...magnificent, I'm sure I'll be thinking back fondly on this holiday for quite some time.

[#NailedIt]
enjoymyatelier: actually, it totally will. (aha! a plan that will not end in failure)

[personal profile] enjoymyatelier 2015-01-03 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Indeed it is. Then again, I'd expect as much from somewhere that's apparently basically France --- all animosity between our country and theirs aside, they do know a thing or two about extravagance, and while this world has its... differences, that seems to be a common thread, at least.

[you did nail it, Meridiana...! HE DIDN'T ACTUALLY NOTICE AT ALL]
occultigen: (CHARM ⚜ no time for obstinate men)

[personal profile] occultigen 2015-01-03 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, yes; all the fashions do tend to start in France.

[See: where her priorities really lie.]

I must say, it was quite the time, finding something about that would be proper for the occasion! The shops in Goldenrod City...well, they're very fine, but they haven't much in the way of what I would think of as seemly ball attire, rather.
enjoymyatelier: have fun storming the castle, kayneth (a totally honorable mage duel)

[personal profile] enjoymyatelier 2015-01-04 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
That they do, yes.

And... really, it is a bit difficult. Fashions have changed a bit over the years, but I've never liked Goldenrod's selection of menswear. I believe Celadon's better for those purposes, but it's a bit out of the way if you'd prefer to stay in one place.
occultigen: (UNSURE ⚜ fighting crime in a nightie)

[personal profile] occultigen 2015-01-04 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Celadon? I don't think I recall visiting that one...

[But it sounds familiar, vaguely, and she can't quite place it.]

Is it very far from Goldenrod?
enjoymyatelier: just imagine the crossed arms and this is von karma as balls (are you cross examining a parrot)

[personal profile] enjoymyatelier 2015-01-04 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
It's in Kanto, so it's... fairly far, but it's not terribly difficult to get to if you take the train to Saffron and then head west. I haven't really spent a long time there, but I've visited it... occasionally.

...mostly just when the world's gotten all strange, so I haven't really had a good opportunity to experience it because of that.
occultigen: (PONDER ⚜ or i could stab him in the face)

[personal profile] occultigen 2015-01-05 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
Perhaps I'll speak of it to my traveling companion, then. I should think he would be quite interested in such a thing, as well.

[...]

All strange, my lord? How so?
enjoymyatelier: but what would that even do. (gradients of babylon...?)

[personal profile] enjoymyatelier 2015-01-09 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, the world breaks every six months or so... well, wait, you were here in November, weren't you? That... business towards the end is what I was talking about.
