there are two rules no murder and no giftboxes

Who: Dangans of all kinds, other non-Dangan invited guests. Anyone who would be at the designated location who wants to party-crash. Although the designated location is, uh...
Where: Goldenrod City, in the Johto equivalent of Chuck E. Cheese
When: Forward-dated to the evening of March 14th. Because Lucy's going to be busy this weekend.
Summary: Nanami uses her birthday to take a bunch of people who wouldn't normally go to a kid's place to a kid's place (though she also invites some people who would be totally chill with it). There is an actual ball pit, what the hell Nanami.
Rating: PG13 at most for some people's language probably KUZURYUU.
Log:

It's pretty obvious by the time the actual location other than "in Goldenrod" is disclosed (though Nanami hands out the address and location so it's possible you could get there without realizing where you're going) that Nanami was completely the one who picked out where they're going. If Kuzuryuu or anyone else she brought up "eating dinner" with thought she would choose a nice sit-down restaurant or at least a legitimate restaurant, they were sorely mistaken. She has, of course, chosen the Johto equivalent of Chuck E. Cheese. Which is, of course, over-the-top with the Pokémon theme. Hands are stamped at the door to show that you've paid to be there.

There are arcade games, playable with tokens purchased and handed out at the door. Tickets are given over from the games based on winning or how well one won, and can turned in at the main counter for ridiculously cheesy prizes that mostly only children would be interested in. There are games other than arcades, such as skee ball and air hockey. There are claw machines with prizes within.

There's also a full-on child's playplace with climbing things, tubes to crawl through, slides, nets, etc. This includes a full-on ball pit.

The food is mostly pizza, although the menu also offers cold-cut sandwiches, buffalo wings, salad bars, and desserts. There's also cake, obviously, which was brought in with the party, as well as a pie. ...There is probably an animatronic show as they eat dinner because this is what Nanami picked and she's totally turning seventeen, the cake says so. There's a table decked out and reserved for the party, so claim a seat for your breaks and eating times and go have a blast! Clearly this night can only end gloriously.

Everyone not in the know of trigger lists would have been warned at some point prior to the party by Nanami not to bring gift-wrapped boxes (bags are apparently acceptable if they are plainish and not involving a lot of giftwrap, as are unwrapped things) with zero explanation of as to why this was.

[One of the mesmerized children happens to be Jimmy, standing at least several feet above the rest of the kids. He's a kid, I promise. Though really, who wouldn't be impressed by this?]

Woooow. You're really good!

[Celes has no idea who you are, incredibly tall child, but you've started out with a compliment so you've obviously got excellent taste. Sounds good to her!] 

Thank you. It's really quite simple. 

[...aaand there's another round of tickets.] 

At least, for me.
awesmazings: (☼ that David played)

[Thus far Jimmy's been assuming that most everyone here is a good friend of Nanami's- or at least an acquaintance to some degree- so any friend of hers is a friend of his!]

Is it really?
divinitea: (SMILE ♠ you're an idiot ^_^)

[personal profile] divinitea 2014-03-14 06:37 am (UTC)(link)
[.... 

Jimmy no]
 

Mhmm. I have quite the talent for it, you see; gambling, that is. 

[Hey, everyone needs a hobby!]
awesmazings: (☼ you know)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2014-03-14 06:44 am (UTC)(link)
["Jimmy no" may as well be the title to Jimmy's existence here, at this point.]

Gambling?

[HE'S....not....sure what that is, actually. Which is probably extremely unhelpful in getting this conversation going but hey.]
divinitea: (WHAT ♥ pls die a little quieter okay)

[personal profile] divinitea 2014-03-14 10:30 am (UTC)(link)
[You just kind of need to start avoiding anything and anyone associated with Dangan Ronpa, Jimmy, because you've been having a hell of a time with this canon laetly

...also did you just]


...do you not know what gambling is...?
awesmazings: (☼ is time ☼)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2014-03-14 04:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Ain't that the truth?

He shakes his head no, leaning back on his heels with his hands in his pockets.]


Mmm, no I'm sorry, I don't.

[...

you sweet summer child]


Oh goodness...how sheltered you are! Would you like to learn how to gamble? It's quite fun.

[say no

say no]

[That's like trying to tell a fish to stop swimming.]

Sure!

[Because this is a WONDERFUL idea. Jimmy, you need an adult.]
divinitea: (NORMAL ♥ p-p-p-pokerface)

[Good thing Celes is here to be said adult, then! This will definitely end well.]

A wise decision! Gambling is very simple; you bet money - or something of material value - on an uncertain outcome. If your bet is correct, you win a prize. If your bet is wrong, you lose the money or object you wagered. For example:

[Neatly removing one of her earrings, Celes cups it in her left fist and places both her hands behind her back, shifting slightly.]

If you can correctly guess which hand I'm holding my earring in, you win five tickets. However, a guess costs you one ticket. If you're lucky, you'll guess correctly the first time and win the five tickets, only losing the one you bet. Therefore, you'll come away four tickets richer.

Alternatively, it could take you ten guesses to identify which hand has the earring, as the gamemaster may or may not shift it around after each incorrect guess. You'll eventually win your five tickets, but since you've lost ten in the process, it's an overall loss and not the sign of a good gambler.

The key to gambling is intuition, strategy...and a fair bit of luck. Fortunately, I have all three in spades; gambling is my special talent.

Does that explanation make sense? Feel free to ask questions.

[Surprisingly enough, she's actually enjoying this. Perhaps she can teach all these children the joys of her hobby...]

[Jimmy listens intently to Celes as she explains, his Furret standing up on her hind legs next to him to listen as well. She just wandered over to watch along with Jimmy, but now it seems like he's getting a gambling lesson. ...Clearly a wise decision indeed.]

Uh huh, it makes sense! Here, lemme give it a try.

[He moves to rip one of his tickets from the roll currently wrapped around Cherry's neck, putting it down on the console in front of Celes before turning back to face her, folding his arms.]

Ok, uuhhmm....I say it's in.....

...that hand.

[He points to her right hand.]
