'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).

[[Hey there cool kid. There is a Lucario standing near by, sizing you up. Don't mind his piercing gaze......

It's nothing, really.]]
moveslikestrider: (Can't you be?)

[personal profile] moveslikestrider 2013-04-06 07:50 am (UTC)(link)
[Hope he likes the shaded stare of the cool kid. He knows Lucario, seeing as Rose is his sister. Just no red eyes for you to study just yet.] Yo.
tentacletrainer: (Xal)

[personal profile] tentacletrainer 2013-04-06 07:58 am (UTC)(link)
[[He'll take it. He's still just judging his competition.

Because like he gets that every man in Rose's life isn't actually competition.]]


...Luc.
moveslikestrider: (Powered by illusions all around.)

[personal profile] moveslikestrider 2013-04-06 09:30 am (UTC)(link)
I'm going to assume you're bored. [While he never lets up with this staring he's doing. He knows this pokemon wants to romance his sister. Clearly time to play mindgames like he grew up with. Like the staring. Can you tell where he's looking while he has shades on? Bet not.

Feeling lucky?]
tentacletrainer: (Xal)

[personal profile] tentacletrainer 2013-04-08 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[[He shrugs a little. If you want to think he's bored, that's fine by him.

He can't, and maybe that bothers him a little, but he's doing his best not to let that show.

He doesn't need to look week in front of the competition!]]
moveslikestrider: (Too long I've been without.)

[personal profile] moveslikestrider 2013-04-08 08:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[He's just going to keep staring. Occasionally he sips his drink or munches on something. But he doesn't say another word or budge an inch. He's just waiting for the inevitable cracking.]
tentacletrainer: (Xal)

[personal profile] tentacletrainer 2013-04-08 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[[And unfortunately it is inevitable. No matter how much of a strong front he puts up, he's starting to get really irritated.]]

Cario luc car lucar?

[[That came out a little angrier than he meant oops.]]
moveslikestrider: (I will be.)

[personal profile] moveslikestrider 2013-04-08 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
You know. There's this funny thing about humans. [He pushes his shades up. His resemblance to Rose should be pretty clear now that his face is visible.]

If we're from the same parents, romance is a hell no, we won't go.

Unless you were waiting to see these, [He points at his red eyes.] In which case yeah, I'm human but I got the burning stare. Sup.

[personal profile] tentacletrainer 2013-04-08 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[[Wow yeah that's kind of eerie, that resemblance. The Lucario squints a little, leaning forward as if to get a better look.

So wait. What was he saying exactly? Did he not want his trainer?

...that's what he was saying, right?

.......skeptical squinting. All of his skeptical squinting as he slowly stands up straight again and relaxes.]]


Luc lucario?

[[You are really not after her?]]
moveslikestrider: (and I forgot that I am free.)

[personal profile] moveslikestrider 2013-04-08 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)
That's right. I do solemnly swear I am not attracted to my own sister. [Maybe he HAD when he hadn't known she was his sister. Maybe. He's not telling.






Ever.]
So we're cool, ok?
tentacletrainer: (Xal)

[personal profile] tentacletrainer 2013-04-08 08:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[[As if it wasn't obvious to anyone with eyes aka the sister in question.

He considers this swear, and then crosses his arms with a nod.

Yeah, he's cool with you.

Now, however, there's another matter to attend to. The Lucario kind of drops his voice a little, leaning in.]]


Luca lucario car rio lucar?

[[Got any tips, mister 'I'm related'?]]
moveslikestrider: (It came before my eyes.)

[personal profile] moveslikestrider 2013-04-09 02:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[He produces a notepad and pen without preamble.] I don't speak poke, you'll have to draw what you want.

[[He takes the pad, looks at Dave a moment and then sets to work!!!

...he is definitely no artist. There seems to be stick figures in that mess of scribbles he's got going on...one might have a skirt, or maybe that's a second pair of legs.

There's one with two big, black eyes that stare into your soul, and there's one that has stubby arms coming off it's head. Or...maybe...that's hair??

But here, he's handing the pad back to Dave now.]]
moveslikestrider: (All the)

[personal profile] moveslikestrider 2013-04-12 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[That. Is the shittest drawing he has ever seen. Of all time. There is nothing worse than that. What's with the four legs??

He stares at it. The soulless staring is probably him. He stares for a moment more and flips the page, spinning the pen in his fingers.

Dave writes 'can you read this y/n?' and shows it to him]
