'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).

Once she was set down and saw Steve, she let out another giggle. "Okay, you too." She bent down, wrapping her arms around the little pink creature.
no subject
"Good to hear. The little guy must be tougher than he looks."
It was a very good hug! When Steve was done hugging, she held up her claws proudly. They were painted bright red and sparkled in the lights.
Blake pretended not to see. "Did you get here all on your own?"
no subject
no subject
Blake was impressed that the girl made it out here on her own. Hell, she must have been coping by herself for a while now. "You're tougher than you look, too. Still, you should have somebody to look out for you."
He was towering over her, so he crouched down to get closer to her level. The way his knees complained made him feel like an old man. His voice was a little unsure.
"Hey. I got an idea. How about when we go back, you stick with me for a while?"
He didn't know a damn thing about kids, but he couldn't just let her wander around alone.
no subject
Emily gave Blake a grin, obviously proud of herself for being so tough. But honestly, as proud as she was of herself, it also felt good to hear that kind of thing from an adult. Knowing she was doing good in this world was nice to hear and it was encouraging! "I'm glad you think so, Mr. Lieutenant Blake. I tried my best."
She leaned in close to listen to his idea though, because it seemed like it had to be pretty important. And what he said made her break into a grin. "I would love to!" she said. Because being alone... It just wasn't fun at all! It was mostly scary, and stressful. She wouldn't admit it though, because she wanted everyone to think she was strong and brave.
"Can I really?"
no subject
He wasn't sure what he was getting into. He didn't know the first thing about looking after kids, but with how happy Emily looked about it, it was clear she wasn't that thrilled about being alone. Hell, fighting bugs the size of dogs was enough to unnerve anybody.
Who knew. It might be a good thing to have somebody to look out for.
"All right." Blake's small, genuine smile was rare enough that it felt strange to realize it was there. "You and Corvo can watch my back."
