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.

[Jimmy can't really help himself, he's about as generous as you can get without literally just giving away all your things. That, and...it's sometimes rare to receive kindness and not have them expect something in return, so good on you friend.]

Ah...never mind! It's just really nice of you to do for me, s'what I mean.

[Which is said over the sound of soft snoring holy cow Cherry is out like a light over there. TOO MUCH PARTY.]

...Like I said, don't worry about it.

[God, for some reason this is now awkward and -

...uh

...Cherry, sis, u ok

I mean he'll keep it up with the pettings because what else is he supposed to do with himself and honestly you're cute for an overlarge noodle

but yes]


I like helping people; I want to do what I can. And I know it's difficult when you've first arrived.
awesmazings: (☼ slip away)

[She's definitely partied hardy and well there you go. That and, unlike the rest of Jimmy's Pokemon, she hasn't really rested from all the traveling they've done as much. Birthday parties are priority.]

Mhm! I wanna help people out like that too, if I end up staying here for a while.
ardent: (And turning all against one)

It gets easier once you start working - have you considered a job yet?
awesmazings: (☼ give me all)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2014-03-14 07:00 am (UTC)(link)
A job? Mmm no, I haven't actually...

[The circus work is supposed to be paid, but Jimmy never really considered that a job at all. ....Either way it probably counts, sorta.]

I'm not sure where to start looking, really.

[Huh. He hasn't been thinking about this at all, actually...Money never seemed to be a problem back home for reasons unknown.]
ardent: (Default)

[personal profile] ardent 2014-03-15 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
[...Oh. Well then.]

The stores and the Pokémon Centers around here will hire you if you ask, at least - it's not a complicated process if it's just an entry-level position! I've been working at various places since I got here, though I was too young to work full-time at that point.

If you're going to be travelling, you shouldn't start now, but it's something to think about, anyway!
awesmazings: (☼ I never would have)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2014-03-15 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
Right! Ok, I will!

[Think about it he will. Maybe if the Circus stops in Goldenrod for an extended period he'll try to pick up a job while there. It wouldn't hurt, at least, and P3000 isn't going to last him forever.]

I think it'll be easier once I get a few gym badges and can actually get around a little faster..

[Never again is he walking for a week and a half.]

Ah...my classmates all had difficulty with that as well! Apparently the early routes are incredibly difficult; you got through them all right, however?
awesmazings: (☼ ☼ hallelujah ☼☼)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2014-03-15 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah, it was fine! I mean, well...as fine as it could be. Just a whole ton of walking. The only problem I really had was, uh...

Well, I got a Buizel egg that hatched right before I left Cherrygrove, and he doesn't really listen to me all that well. He kept trying to attack the Pokemon we ran into on the Routes.

[Which is exactly why he's not coming back out for the time being.]
