'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
bywiseguidance: (bright smile)

[Ziva laughs, smiling widely as she comes face to face with Albert.]

One would think you were trying to sweep me off my feet.

[Hint: It's kinda working. OH AGENT ROSENFIELD OH.]
worktodo: (SNARK ☮ nice broken ribs there champ)

[personal profile] worktodo 2013-04-07 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
One would be pretty quick on the uptake.

[Yeah, he's swag. The outfit helps; it's hard not to feel like a boss when you're bossing around in the duds of Indiana Jones or James Bond.]

I don't expect half the punks at this little kiddy parade to know any of the real dances. [Like he does.] Which one's your poison?
bywiseguidance: (like what you see?)

[personal profile] bywiseguidance 2013-04-07 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh-ho.]

I can keep up with any of them.

[She's a dancer, remember? And as one of the team that goes undercover the most often, sometimes in situations like this, it makes sense that she can keep up on the dance floor.]

Surprise me.
worktodo: (RECLINE ☮ and i'm workin' my strut)

[personal profile] worktodo 2013-04-07 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[And up go his eyebrows.]

Yeah, all right. Wait here.

[And he'll just cruise on down to see if this indoor orchestra has ever heard of any decent music — and apparently lucks out, because as he comes back, they're cuing up something a little more old-school.

Let's dance, Ziva.]
bywiseguidance: (imma tiger rar)

[Ziva wasn't kidding when she said she could keep up, and she can improvise too--which is good, because she doesn't remember hearing this song before. It's somewhat outside her usual playlist, and she can't really say she's done swing dancing before.

But she's adaptable, and willing to respond to a challenge. YOU WANNA DANCE? WE'RE GONNA DANCE.]
worktodo: (MOTION ☮ no seriously get over here)

[personal profile] worktodo 2013-04-08 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
[Hey, it's not like Albert just walks around with planned routines in his head, either. There's a difference between putting on a show and being able to dance, and Grandma Stell made sure he knew the difference. (The old lady sure could cut a rug, even when she'd been getting up in years.)

THE OTHER PARTYGOERS BETTER GET THE HELL OUT OF THEIR WAY. They've got work to do.

On the dance floor.]
bywiseguidance: (slinky dress)

[personal profile] bywiseguidance 2013-04-09 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
[WORK IT GUYS. how many people do we have staring in awe? Or dodging Ziva's skirt, because it kind of trails, and especially with how far up that slit goes it can get some real momentum going.]
worktodo: (AGENT ☮ cue the mission impossible theme)

[personal profile] worktodo 2013-04-11 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
[And while this is all going on, if Ziva's looking close — which she probably can't help but do, given her proximity to Albert — she might even notice he's smiling a little.

CAN IT BE?

SURE IS.]
