☆ YOU ARE (STILL) 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).

Joshua and Imogen

(Continued from here.)

"It seems a bit impersonal, not letting them pick names," Imogen mused aloud as she continued her attention on the large electrolion. Sparing a glance toward her partner Talent, who seemed unphased by all this. His eyes were focused on the newcomer, but quickly lost interest when he was sure Imogen was in no danger.

"Isn't it obvious, I'm a mysterious girl in a mask." Seemed silly to ask this of her in public, that was the point of masks after all. Even if, with Imogen, they hardly concealed her from those that knew her. She broke from petting the Luxray to twirl lavishly and then return her attention to the bug dumb lug.

"Letting them pick? If I did that, I'd just wind up with some permutation of their names anyway."

Working under the assumption that he couldn't read their minds, of course.

Luxray tilted her head when Imogen spun, then sat down, head still tilted and tail flicking from side to side with curiosity. That was a movement she wasn't used to seeing.

Well, she couldn't fault him for his expectations, she was a special one when it came to this. She was, however, too busy making friends with Luxray to give this the proper explanation, "Talent, explain."

"My lady suggested various words until I found one I liked. She does this with each of us. To help us feel comfortable with her, even if most of us would be fine with any name she chose for us." The Espeon turned his attention back toward the party as soon as he was done explaining. His job was still, primarily, to protect her over the evening.

"I've hatched more Pokemon than I've caught, but I prefer to let them pick when they can. It helps me get to know them," that was a lie, she just didn't think it was courteous to just decide a name.
usedfeatherdance: (Hey is that on sale?)

Joshua's immediate reaction to the words flooding into his head was to shut them out. But he didn't have the power to do that here, and that the person he was talking to took such a matter so casually did not endear Joshua towards her in the least.

Vulpix gave a low growl in his throat and Joshua realized he'd tensed up. After a moment he forced himself to relax and keep his expression casual, but some of the cheer from before had definitely left his demeanor.

"Fair enough. Nicknames still were never my thing. And I can't exactly say my Pokemon have ever seemed to mind it."
