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.

[Kuzuryuu please. You don't want to get stuck with Jimmy trying to teach you how to be social, trust me. So far, things aren't swinging in your favor on that front.]

Oh, well she's prolly around here somewhere! That or in the ball pit.

[He pauses, tilting his head at the boy.]

Is there something wrong?
impheired: in the park more than 2 feet away from me until they are capable of punching an eagle. (talk ♚ my kids are NEVER playing)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-03-14 06:46 am (UTC)(link)
[HE IS PERFECTLY SOCIABLE, TYVM. HE IS A MASTER OF SOCIAL GRACES AND-- yeah no Katar can't even finish that sentence. Not even in brackets.]

...I'll have to look there next. I didn't think of that.

[That gives him both an escape from this conversation and it helps further the lie that he's not interested in playing any of these games. Yes. Go Kuzuryuu.]

Why would anything be wrong? It doesn't matter that you're not from Hope's Peak so long as you're friends with Nanami, right? It was just another thing about this party that I didn't expect.

[The other thing being the location. He still cannot believe...]
awesmazings: (☼ she drew)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2014-03-14 06:54 am (UTC)(link)
If she's not there, she might be at the ticket counter! She's been getting a whole ton of tickets, anyway.

[At a much faster rate than he has to boot. Still, what are you going to expect from Miss SHSL Gamer?]

Oh, right! Well, Nanami's really nice. I'm not surprised that she's got a lot of friends.

[Shh Kuzuryuu, it's great, admit it.]
impheired: in your face. but it was 6 dollars, that shit's expensive. (disgust ♚ really wanna throw this drink)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-03-14 09:52 am (UTC)(link)
Well she is the Super High School Level Gamer. Of course she's kicking ass and taking names. What else did you expect?

[IT'S ALMOST LIKE YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT SHSL MEANS, KID. Oh wait...]

[Also, no it's not. Do you have any idea how hard it is to be in a place like this when you have a face like Kuzuryuu's???]
awesmazings: (☼ without fear)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2014-03-14 04:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[Jimmy seems a little taken off guard by that as he doesn't immediately fire back a response, for once.]

Super Hugh School Level...Gamer? What does that mean?

[Because nobody explained this to him (and with good reason) and he's never actually been to school.

He can only imagine. It'd be easier if you just accepted it, really.]
impheired: why there is sushi in the soap dish in the bathroom. (stare ♚ care to explain)

1/2

[personal profile] impheired 2014-03-15 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
[...Jimmy how has nobody explained this to you. You know how many of these kids now and NONE OF THEM have explained this very simple and basic fact to you yet?]

[Wow.]
impheired: "grandpa stuck in a teenage boy's body" - i'm super passionate about retirement and crossing on the walk signal. (talk ♚ i'm basically your average)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-03-15 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
Did she seriously not...did nobody...?

[Why is he the one who has to explain this, holy shit. Does he look like the exposition-y type?]

Fuck, okay. The school we all went to back home...it wasn't a normal school. You could only be accepted there if you were at the very fucking top of whatever your field or talent is. For Nanami, that talent is video games. It means that out of all the high school age kids in the goddamn country, nobody can beat her when it comes to video games. Got it? She's the fucking best there is.
awesmazings: (☼ and I know ☼)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2014-03-15 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, funny how that goes, isn't it? Literally all the Dangans Jimmy's met and not a soul has mentioned how this works to him, yet. ...Well, thanks for doing the thing, Kuzuryuu. He appreciates it.]

....Wooow, she got into a school for being good at video games? That's so cool!

[All of that foul language just blips through Jimmy's radar because what is it even.]
impheired: my reasoning skills at home last night, and just brought anger and rage with me. (angry ♚ i'm pretty sure i left)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-03-15 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
[Get used to it Jimmy, the foul language is never going to stop.]

Not just good, the best. Anybody can be just ordinarily good at video games.

[KID, GET YOUR WORDS RIGHT.]
awesmazings: (☼ to make me stay)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2014-03-15 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
[FINE, THE BEST. Either way, he's severely impressed.]

Yeah, I guess you're right!

...

So what's your talent, then?

[or NAME, for that matter.]
impheired: to me in the bar and proclaimed that i looked like a "shady motherfucker." can't argue with that one. (neutral ♚ some lady just walked up)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-03-15 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
I'm the Super High School Level Gangster.

[It's...not...really a talent.............]
awesmazings: (☼ hallelujah ☼)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2014-03-15 06:34 am (UTC)(link)
[...]

...

Neat!

[JIMMY.]

Well anyways, if you don't want to play any games, do you want me to help you find Nanami?
impheired: "i swear it'll be funny" and then we were in jail. (unsure ♚ all i heard was)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-03-15 07:07 am (UTC)(link)
[...Jimmy.]

[Can you tell by the look on his face that "neat" is probably not the answer you should have given there? Or at least it's not the one that he's normally used to hearing??]

[...you have no fucking clue what a gangster is, do you?]


N...no, I can find her on my own.

[He is...such a master...of being social and agreeable.]
awesmazings: (☼ hallelujah)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2014-03-15 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[NOT IN THE SLIGHTEST, but he'll pretend that he does for...the moment. Feel free to enlighten him, or else he might just ask someone else, and who knows what questionable information he might be fed.

At least Jimmy seems convinced that this is something Kuzuryuu can do on his own.]


Well, alright then. It was nice to meet you, though! Uuhh....what's your name, again?
impheired: me look like im always in a bad mood, which is convenient because it’s usually true (neutral ♚ my neutral expression makes)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-03-15 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[Kuzuryuu's done his exposition for the day, you have fun asking somebody else more agreeable.]

Kuzuryuu Fuyuhiko.
awesmazings: (☼ without pain)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2014-03-15 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Ok! Nice talking to you!

[Aand Jimmy's off, following Cherry who has wandered out of the arcade toward the center of the place again. Well, now Jimmy can go around asking all the Dangans what their talents are, if anything.]
