Thank God It's... Valentines? Just party like it's a Friday!

Who: Other Father ([personal profile] otherfathering) and YOU! Anyone and everyone are welcome.
Where: the Other House backgarden, on the outskirts of Goldenrod and Route 34
When: Valentines Day Evening
Summary: In an attempt to keep people from needing to use their own lights, as well as having fun and letting his garden shine as it should, Father's hosting a garden party!
Rating: E? how do ratings work?
Log:

It was no secret that the Other Father loved to garden, and more as such loved his garden. If he wasn't working with music or children or working in general, he was usually to be found in the garden, planting some new seed, harvesting some strange berry, or pretty-ing up the place with lights and ornaments. With the complexity of the garden, one wrong placement could have made it cluttered; Other Father's placements made it look wonderful. Just like the Otherworld, the family garden was indeed a fantastic garden.

The family garden always glowed, but it struggled as it tried its hardest to grow over the neighboring lights of Goldenrod, never quite looking as beautiful as it should. Father was sure the garden was sad, just as he was that it couldn't fill its potential... and then the blackout was announced. The blackout in which most Goldenrod facilities and homes would turn off their lights and leave the skies dark, to dim their lights for a loving mating season of two marvelous Pokémon. And it gave him an idea. The blackout was optional, so if he were to host an open garden party, then those who attended wouldn't need to use their own lights! Let the garden glow, stop a couple of houses glowing! In his mind, it was a good deed that could work.

And so the garden had been set; the multi-coloured lights shone around the plants and berries and plastic bird-Pokémon, they draped over the branches of the living centerpiece that was the tree, its treehouse that the children had built sat alongside the net of tiny bulbs; they continued onwards and illuminated the performance area, draped over the speaker and around the microphone stand, the area that placed beside the BBQ (luckily not let lit) that still had no idea who would be its cook. Father and his little helpers had made sure the garden was perfect, just like his family and their home.

Tonight would be magical if all went well, and he sincerely hoped it would help the cause of love; there was never quite enough of that, especially on Valentines day.

((ooc; welcome to the party log! The log will be divided into sections as most group logs are. Post under the sections and generally party- or if your character is doing something special, just post a new section.

Have fun, and Happy Valentines!))

Yeah! Everyone else will be a tiger or a lion or a feraligatr and they'll just ask you what you are and you'd be like, "I'm a ghost" and you'd be the only one who is a ghost and it'd be funny, hehe.

Well, John might want to be a Haunter because he's John, but I would definitely be one among a few! ...For some reason, lots of people don't care for ghost pokemon.

I don't get why. They're really cute spirits and some of them are really sympathetic, like those Yamask.

Right!!! I think they're all adorable and lovely, even if of course some of the ghost pokemon will have less than lovely personalities, because they are people and therefore are varied!

Yeah! A lot of people say a pokémon adopts aspects of a trainer's personality. So all bad ghost pokémon either just have a varied nature, or maybe they just had a really nasty in the past and they were released. [ Momo is a strong subscriber to the All Pokémon Are Good Deep Deep Down theory. ]

You know, I hadn't heard that! I think some of mine are a lot different from me, but it's true that my raising them has probably had a big effect on them, you know? Like, the things they like to do and see.

Yeah! Maybe the experiences we give to them and the reactions we have cause them to change as individuals. Maybe your prankster might be a reckless prankster if it wasn't for you honing his skills, or something!

Exactly!! We're basically lusuii - I mean, parents. We're their parents, basically.

When you say it like that, it kinda puts into perspective how much work it takes to raise pokémon. I mean, I only have five if you don't count my bat army and they work really hard!

Your bat army?

Yeah! I have a bunch of Zubats and Woobats that are used to transport stuff and flock and spy and everything! [ #shecray. ]

I see...

[ ...WHAT DOES ONE SAY TO THIS... ]

That seems really smart, actually! If spying and transporting are what you need to do.

...On that note, though, I really ought to let you go! There are a few more people I have to say hello to before the night is over, and I'm sure you're the same.

Hehe, yeah! They're certainly useful all right! And okay! Have fun at the party, Aradia! I'll see you later!
