'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).

Well, of course she's the prettiest to me. [ he tugs on one of the long red feathers on her head. partly it's said to placate Yoonjae, partly he doesn't want to make Jane uncomfortable or something with too many compliments. Yoonjae rolls her eyes...but she's not displeased. ]

Are the contacts uncomfortable for you? I guess it'd be hard to wear glasses with the mask. [ though he thought it'd be harder to walk around without glasses. ]

You don't like to dance?

It's more like I can't really stand the idea of touching my eyes to put them in. It just seems so weird, and even watching people put contacts in makes me squeamish. [It comes with a small laugh, then she's fixing the mask on her face again.] But yes, it's difficult to wear my glasses and I was told I can't hide behind them forever.

It's not that I don't like to dance, but I'm not particularly good at it. I used to dance with my Dad when I was younger and while he never complained, I'd be on his feet more often than not.

Ah...yeah I could understand that. [ he laughs a bit at that. ] Is it hiding behind them if you need them to see clearly? I think your glasses suit you as well.

[ glasses are cute! ]

I danced with my mom, I think she was just happy to spend time with me regardless of how good or bad I was at it. You don't have to be good at it to enjoy dancing, even if my partner stepped on my feet I wouldn't mind as long as everyone's having fun.

Hoo hoo, good question. Thank you though, I just received them before my birthday as an early gift! My old pair were a bit rounder, but the oval shape is much classier in my opinion.

[That's a cute thought and she hoo hoo's softly.] I suppose so. [And that makes her think a moment, before throwing caution to the wind; this is supposed to be fun, right?] Hey, would you like to dance?

[personal profile] unended 2013-04-28 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he smiles widely at that. ]

Yeah, I would have asked if you didn't. [ does he ham it up now or later? whatever, it's a party! he offers his arm to her, let him escort her like a proper gentleman...? ]
healium: (Default)

[personal profile] healium 2013-05-03 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Smiling, she steps up and takes his arm.] Lead the way, and I apologize for all the times I step on your feet in advanced.
unended: (101)

[personal profile] unended 2013-05-06 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, don't apologise when it hasn't even happened yet! [ he will lead them to the ballroom then! And give her a charming bow once they get on the dance floor. ]

Besides, I promise you I'll barely feel it even if you do.
healium: (<3)

[personal profile] healium 2013-05-08 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[The bow prompts a curtsy, and Jane can't help still smiling so brightly.] If you're certain, but I still wanted to do that at least. [Stepping in, she sets her hands in place and waits to let him lead.]
unended: (06)

[personal profile] unended 2013-05-10 08:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[ and lead he will! because that's how pair dances go or something. he's not fantastic, he's more used to the kind of dancing that's going on in the garden party but he's not bad either. ]

You should be more confident. I'm surprised with the party though, where I come from kids my age don't really dance like this.

healium: (pretty lady)

[personal profile] healium 2013-05-27 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[She's managing not to step on any feet just yet.]

Hoo hoo, this really is just out of my element. What kind of dancing do they do?
unended: (98)

[personal profile] unended 2013-05-30 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
Hm... anything but couple dances, pretty much. I went to dance clubs sometimes, dancing in a ballroom is new.

[ it's not as exciting as it sounds. ]
