☆ YOU ARE HERE ☆




LOCATIONS OF NOTE:

REDUCED G MOON BALLROOM
Accessible only via the balcony that connects back through to the regular ballroom, this unusual section of the moon base is the only major room in which the gravity more closely reflects that of the actual moon, as opposed to being artificially enhanced to better simulate the conditions Earthside. The dance floor is situated approximately fifteen feet below the balcony, recessed into the moon's surface where the rest of the base sits at ground level, and overhead a massive domed ceiling lets in a magnificent view of outer space, the moon's surface, and all the surrounding stars. The acoustics are just as good as those of the standard ballroom, and this dance floor will feature the same music as the other; the only appreciable difference is that in the Reduced G Moon Ballroom, gravity is mostly optional and you're liable to find as many couples spinning through the open air as you are with solid ground beneath their feet. Try not to get trapped in the middle with no momentum, or you might just need a rescue from some considerate stranger!


REGULAR BALLROOM
A more traditional ballroom for the more traditional partygoer on the moon base: hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, crystal chandeliers, and tasteful music. Of particular note are the balcony doors at the north end of the ballroom, which lead onto the observation balcony that overlooks the Reduced Gravity Moon Ballroom! Please don't block those doors; they're the only way in or out!


DINING ROOM AND BUFFET
GOOD FOOD, GOOD MEAT, GOOD GRIEF, LET'S EAT! The dining room is an area accessible from both the ballroom and the hallway that leads between the reception area and the dorms, featuring scores upon scores of tables of varying sizes that might seat as little as two or as many as eight. On days when the party isn't in full swing, buffet-style meals will be served over a period of two hours at three times during the day — breakfast, lunch, and dinner. When the party is jumping, however, the table will remain perpetually stocked with entrees, sides, and of course a full complement of magnificent desserts for people to feast and snack upon as they so choose!


DORMS AND SLEEPING AREAS
Your moon base home-away-from-home for the next three days! In the massive dorm wing of the base, you'll find vast corridors of hostel-style bunks available to be claimed. Unclaimed bunks will signal their availability by having their curtains open and empty bunk displayed; though the privacy curtains and beds themselves boast no particular security features, each bunk does come with a reasonably-sized trunk for storing a guest's belongings. Upon claiming the bunk, a guest will be prompted to register their trunk with a thumbprint, which thereafter will be used to lock and unlock their trunk. If you're worried about something happening to your belongings or valuables, feel free to lock them up for safekeeping!


INDOOR GREENHOUSE AND FLOWER GARDEN
A secluded place where partygoers can retreat from the festivities for a little while, whether it be to catch their breath, for a tête-à-tête, or anything else that might involve the desire for a little more peace and quiet. Featuring small walking paths, real fresh flowers, and even a small inches-deep artificial burbling brook, the moon base garden looks to be a little slice of the planet Earth preserved here in outer space. Seems like all that's missing are the wild Pokemon!


LIBRARY, MUSIC ROOM, SPA, AND ARCADE
An assortment of four general leisure rooms in the western wing of the Moon Base, most of which are fairly self-explanatory! So, if you feel so inclined, take some time to stop in, poke around, and enjoy yourself in:

THE LIBRARY, which features muted lighting, plenty of hardwood paneling, and a quiet atmosphere for reading a book in one of the cozy armchairs or piling up a dozen to peruse at one of the available tables. You're welcome to find the usual Pokemon-ified standard fare of books here; unfortunately, research-inclined people digging for secrets about the moon base, Pokemon, or other such nonfiction topics aren't likely to unearth anything of any particular note this time. Alas!

THE MUSIC ROOM, which boasts a wide array of instruments available for the guests to make use of, including a grand piano, a few guitars (both acoustic and electric), and a general assortment of other choices from the brass, string, wind, and percussion families.

THE SPA FACILITIES, where guests are welcome to unwind and relax in the various pools, hot tubs, and mineral baths available. Swimsuits and towels are provided in the built-in changing rooms for anyone interested in making use of the spa!

THE ARCADE, containing plenty of video games, games of skill, and other such electronic amusements for patrons to pass the time away with. Skee-Ball and Dance Dance Eeveelution are, of course, particular standouts from the array, but there are plenty of other traditional games to be found in here. You can also find playing cards, board games, and other low-tech amusements in here, as well!


CRYSTAL GARDEN AND TERRACE
A beautiful garden-like area filled with growing crystals located just outside the moon base, visible from the windows in the moon ballroom and accessible via a warm-lit terrace that leads out onto what appears to be the planet's surface itself. It appears that some unseen apparatus is maintaining an area of atmosphere over the expanse of the garden, rendering it safe for guests to wander and explore even without the benefit of space suits or oxygen tanks. However, being a part of the actual surface of the moon, it is possible that perusing among the crystals will net you an encounter with a wild Pokemon, so be careful where you tread among the crystals!

This is the only area where wild Pokemon can be battled and captured, and being that it is on the planet's surface, note also that this area is subject to reduced gravity, similar to the moon ballroom! The wild Pokemon you can find out here are as follows:

Cleffa, Clefairy, Clefable, Staryu, Starmie, Lunatone, Solrock, Elgyem,
Beheeyem, Jigglypuff, Togepi, Carbink, Boldore, Gigalith, Aron, Crustle

All Pokemon will be Level 20-30!



HOLODECK
At first glance, the holodeck appears to be simply a vast open room criss-crossed with yellow grid lines, looming in the northwest corner of the moon base. However, once inside, a visitor may find that the holodeck is much more than it appears: a virtual reality facility capable of recreating familiar places by a combination of transported matter, replicated matter, tractor beams, and shaped force fields.

Though the holodeck comes with a variety of standard preprogrammed environments to play with and experience — an average beach, a deep forest, an unremarkable porch in someone's generic backyard — its greatest facet is its ability to recreate environments and places from its users' memories. Been missing home for a long time? The holodeck can take you (and your guests) back there — for as long as you've got it activated, at least. Please remember to use it sparingly and in small doses, lest you become addicted to the fantasy and not the reality!

(Mod Note: To clarify, the holodeck is here to indulge a character's (and by extension a player's) imagination. You are by no means limited to just the uses detailed above; if you'd like your character to fantasize about being in a 1920s gangster setting and play around with it as a prompt that takes place on the holodeck, you can feel free to do so! Note that the holodeck comes with safety features that will prevent a character from suffering serious injury (either from themselves, from the environment, or from other people using the holodeck simultaneously), but it is possible to get some bumps, bruises, and scrapes from the experience! Feel free to ask us if you're not sure what you can do with it, but generally speaking it's there to be played with, so don't hesitate to play with it!)



IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER:


THE GENERAL PROM SCHEDULE IS AS FOLLOWS:

Friday, May 27th — Arrival at the Moon Base; FREE DAY FOR OPEN EXPLORING!
Saturday, May 28th — Red Carpet Moon Gala!

Joseph Joestar | Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

[personal profile] secrettechnique 2016-05-28 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
[Arcade, Friday]

[In the middle of all the moon shenanigans, there is a ridiculously large man crammed into a suit doing his best to set a new score at one of the ski-ball machines. Sure, it's a little more advanced than the ones he's played before, but he's got this. He's totally got this.

Except the shot goes wide and into the next lane?]


Oh no! However will I set that score now?

[Does the overblown reaction show that he's got a plan in mind...and possibly going to annoy the rest of the arcade with his possibly less than ethical skee ball play? Because he does, Joseph Joestar always has a plan.]

[Garden, also Friday.]

[At some point, possibly after being asked to leave the arcade, he's found his way outside to the garden and decided to try out this Pokemon thing. So once he runs into a wild Pokemon, he'll bring out the one he has.

Apparently fate has decided to not screw him over and at least give him something that looks cool since what comes out of the Pokeball is a Greninja. He can work with that. Probably.]


All right, buddy, I don't know what you do, but we've got this!

[Yeah, look at how confident he is as he poses in the direction of the Carbink they're facing. Greninja is not joining in in helping Joseph flex and look like all sense of perspective and human anatomy were left behind on planet Earth.]

I feel a little bad trying to fight something like that, so that's why you're doing all the hard work. That's okay, right? Right! So let's go!

[...this is going to be a disaster. Someone please help.]
lapidarius: (and my spirit is crying for leaving)

arcade

[personal profile] lapidarius 2016-05-28 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Okay, on the moon? Probably an enemy Stand or something. Even if they'd already done that arcana. But there was an arcade.]

[So really, of course Kakyoin was gonna end up here sooner or later while waiting for the other shoe to drop, and of course he was going to eventually notice the large and vaguely familiar disruption incarnate.]


Are you having a problem with that?

[And judge said disruption over his sunglasses. Because my god, can you just let a kid play Tetris over here in peace?]
secrettechnique: (pic#9953205)

[personal profile] secrettechnique 2016-05-28 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
Who, me?

[Joseph turns back towards Kakyoin, shrugging as the ball heads up the wrong ramp. And of course, he has no idea what game it is, but it looks like something he might try later.

Or not, who knows, he might have an issue with falling blocks.]


I'll say! How am I supposed to set the high score when my ball's over there? Pretty bad luck, wouldn't you say?

[None of this would be happening if it hadn't stolen his quarter a few minutes ago. But it happened and now he's apparently decided it needs to pay. They're on the moon and he's picking fights with an arcade machine and showing off. Joseph Joestar, everyone.]
lapidarius: (i grow weary of the battle)

[personal profile] lapidarius 2016-05-28 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
[WOW. WOW.]

[Falling blocks aside for the moment, Kakyoin turned to face Joseph fully--he just could not place the distinct feeling of familiarity for some reason.]


Bad luck or poor skills. I wasn't watching, it could have been either.
secrettechnique: (Default)

[personal profile] secrettechnique 2016-05-28 07:18 am (UTC)(link)
Poor skills?!

[He cups his hear with his hand because he clearly didn't catch that. Sorry, he must be getting hard of hearing in his young age. Must be from all the dubstep that keeps happening every time he goes near an antagonist.]

I'd take a closer look if I were you.

[Right as the ball hits the ramp, it spikes up bouncing on top of the cage and getting knocked back under it, right back into Joseph's lane. And wow is this taking a long time to roll around. Maybe the moon is on DIO standard time or something.]

Look at that! I'm pretty sure you must be thinking: how did you accomplish that incredible feat, Jojo?

[There is a smugger grin on Joseph's face than what one would see encountering a swarm of Snivy, so he clearly thinks he's the king of the arcade right now.]

lapidarius: <user name="emeraldstarlights" site="tumblr.com"> (and this is how we will end)

[personal profile] lapidarius 2016-05-28 07:24 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know if 'incredible' is the word I'd--

[TOKI YO GODDAMN TOMARE, WAIT A SECOND HERE.]

[Had he just said what Kakyoin was absolutely certain he did? Of all the things to make that stubbornly childish attitude click from 'vaguely' to 'incredibly' familiar, of course it'd be that nickname. He lowered his sunglasses again like he was trying to get a better look at who he was talking to--that was impossible, right?]

[About as impossible as being on the moon, he reasoned with himself.]


...sorry, what was I...saying?
secrettechnique: (pic#9953205)

[personal profile] secrettechnique 2016-05-28 07:38 am (UTC)(link)
[Hang on, let him clear his throat.]

You were saying: how did you accomplish that incredible feat, Jojo?

[Meanwhile the ball goes up the ramp and right into that super annoying hole. The one that's usually worth like a million points. Or it would go in, it's sort of endlessly circling the rim of it right now.]

Garden

[personal profile] failures 2016-05-28 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Joseph might be trying to have a Very Serious battle right now, but it seems as though someone has stumbled into it!]

Duuuude! Where'd you get that?

[Larry really should be more focused on those Jojo poses but...that badass ninka frog though?! Also that rabbit rock thing. What the heck are either of those?

...more importantly though, maybe he and his Wobbuffet should get out of the way of middle of the battlefield.]
secrettechnique: (pic#9952968)

[personal profile] secrettechnique 2016-05-28 07:28 am (UTC)(link)
[He'll go with putting his hands on his hips and smirking in response to that because Joseph tends to always be doing something.]

What? This thing?

[...Joseph don't pretend like you know what the hell it is or like you planned the thing.]

Why, it's my secret weapon, of course!

[..is it possible for Greninja to roll its eyes because that is happening right now.]
islandshore: (cocky)

garden

[personal profile] islandshore 2016-05-28 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[Is that guy... posing? Posing at a carbink?

Wow. Talk about a case of theatrics. Still, as a seasoned trainer, Riku saunters over, hands in his pockets, and shrugs.]


You'd be surprised. Even the little guys can pack a punch...
secrettechnique: (Default)

[personal profile] secrettechnique 2016-05-29 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Damn right he's posing at a Carbink.]

What? This guy? Are you serious?

[Yeah, he can't believe it.]

You know it's not smart to kid a kidder, right?
islandshore: (o rly?)

[personal profile] islandshore 2016-05-29 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, I'm serious. You spend six years working with these guy, and you pick up on a few things.

[Trying to hide his grin, he gestures to the Carbink.]

Like how these guys are fairy types, and your Greninja's part dark type.

[However, he adds--]

But it is a rock, so water moves could balance it out.
secrettechnique: (OH NO)

[personal profile] secrettechnique 2016-05-30 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[Okay, that's all very important, but let's get to what Joseph considers the key issue to be.]

Oh my god! You spent six years on the moon? You must be one of those moon men from those pulp mags, right?

[...Joseph, please.]
islandshore: (Wow you're dense)

[personal profile] islandshore 2016-05-30 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
...No, I didn't spend all that time here.

[He pinches the bridge of his nose, sighing.]

There's another planet, you know. That's where I started off, and that was after I got dragged out of my world.
secrettechnique: (Default)

[personal profile] secrettechnique 2016-05-31 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
That was a joke, buddy. You're not anywhere near green enough to be some sort of moon man from Mars.

[That sentence sure says a lot about the quality of Joseph's reading material.]

But what I'm hearing is that you're the expert on these things.

Arcade

[personal profile] fehcatsap 2016-05-28 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[It only stands to reason that Josuke would eventually find the arcade. They might have video games from the future here, since it is kind of the moon.

Of course, he also finds this completely ripped guy that appears to be losing it over a game. And it looks a little like an act.]


Oi, no reason to be that way. Just a game, doesn't really matter too much?

[He was never that good at game.]
secrettechnique: (OH NO)

[personal profile] secrettechnique 2016-05-29 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Doesn't matter? Doesn't matter? Hey, buddy, it definitely matters. This thing stole my quarter, so I was this close to setting the high score as revenge.

[He pantomimes how close he was by pinching his fingers together...causing the ball to start rolling backwards...completely exposing his trick.]
fehcatsap: (hands off my desert)

[personal profile] fehcatsap 2016-05-29 04:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds a little more like you just put one too many in.

[Ooh, that's some thin wire though. Crafty. Maybe this guy gets some pity after all, provided that's not a lie.]

If it really didn't take one though, turnabout's fair play.

[Just because he's caught on though doesn't mean he doesn't need to let on that he did, and he kinda wants to see where this'll go.]
secrettechnique: (pic#9953205)

[personal profile] secrettechnique 2016-05-29 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Turnabout's fair play, huh? So you're saying if it did something to me, then I'm totally justified in doing something to it.

[He waves his hand at the thing, causing the ball to sort of hop down the track. Hide your trick better, buddy.]

And I know, I know, you're thinking Jojo, it was just a quarter, why do you care so much? But it's the principle of the thing. I just can't stand anyone getting one over on me.

[In other words, it's okay when Joseph does it.]
fehcatsap: (the travel sequence)

[personal profile] fehcatsap 2016-05-29 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
You could stand to be a little less obvious about how you're doing it, though.

[It's almost like he just wants to be noticed. But "Jojo"? That's got him wondering more than ever who this guy is.]

But yeah, I get that. The one thing you just can't forgive.

...Well, go on. There's a part two to this trick, isn't there?

[Since musclehead over here clearly wants some attention, Botan will humor him and pause from cleaning out the crane game as usual. There's...something very unusual happening here and hey, nobody ever said she couldn't continue keeping an eye out for interesting humans.]

Hmm? A part two? Well if you're expecting that, I'd hate to disappoint a pretty girl.

[...Joseph do not flirt with the grim reaper. Then again, it wouldn't be the dumbest thing he's done. Probably not even the dumbest thing he's done today.]

Watch the ball carefully, carefully, and...

[It skips back over the side as Joseph uses the string attached to it along with a current of hamon to jump the ball over the divider and back into the lane.]

So, what do you think?

[Bless humans and their flirtations. Luckily for Joseph, while one really Should Not flirt with the grim reaper, Botan's already heard it--from men around and about three times his age, so the commentary passes her hearing. The part two is what she's more interested in anyway, watching the ball as he says.

Ah, yes, the ball jumps on a string, the crafty fellow, but it's the charge of energy hitting Botan's senses that causes her to freeze and pay much more attention than she was intending. What was that? He was channeling some type of energy through the ball and string, but it wasn't spirit energy. Very unusual, Joseph earned the applause he gets when she focuses back on the physical plane.]


Impressive! That energy trick you used is especially unique, I can't say I've seen it before. [And really, channeling energy of any type through physical objects isn't anything to sneeze at.] You're full of surprises, aren't you?

What? You noticed that?!

[He's actually pretty shocked because...]

Usually, the response there is something like how did you do that Jojo? What's happening, Jojo?! Why am I suddenly screaming in pain, Jojo? But that energy trick is especially unique? Not that!

[...could he be more dramatic?]

But to say it's unique, that means you're not a Hamon user, are you?

[Otherwise, she'd recognize it, right? ...and probably start scolding him for using it for stupid things like this instead of defeating vampires or whatever the hell the Pillarmen are.]

[God but isn't he just, "Jojo" could make a killing in theater. He's certainly got Botan putting a hand to her mouth to stifle and or hide any laughing she's doing.]

So it's called "Hamon." [Ripple? Well, it makes sense for an energy-based technique to be called a ripple. That effectively puts it in a different category than spirit energy anyway.] No, I'm not a practitioner, I just happen to have very good senses and...hmmm.

[Should she? Just a quick Spirit Gun isn't going to hurt anything, it's been a while anyway and of course her own projection of energy isn't as forceful as Yusuke's. So Botan takes a step back and gestures to the pile of plushies she had left behind at the crane machine.]

Watch that spot, if you please.
