☆ 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 upscale garden party! There'll also be a ballroom indoors for more traditionally fancy red-carpet goings-on, but most of the action (and volume of guests) will be found mingling out back.
GREEN areas are where guests will be staying overnight! Unfortunately, you'll be sleeping-bagging it up, since there's a limited amount of bedrooms in this house and they're all being occupied by Clair, Lance, the Elite Four, and guests who are regrettably way more important than you. However, 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 (and their special guests) 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 prefer the classy elegance of a formal red-carpet gala over the more whimsy outdoor garden party atmosphere in the back. 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 — we've detailed them further right here. 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. There are also pictures of the Elite Four members themselves, though it seems there's been a changeover since the last prom; the candids and Official Portraits™ depict different people entirely now (with the exception of Bruno) and there are a few photos of some sort of ceremony among the others. These photos include Lance being declared Champion of both regions by Professor Oak, while the rest of the Elite Four look on; Lorelai hugging Will and Karen immediately after their promotion to Elite Four; Agatha and Koga having an exhibition battle between her Gengar and his Crobat; all six of them piling into the frame for what amounts to a massive group selfie, etc.

[Here's hoping Antec's body isn't too slippery to hold on. He starts swimming back towards his trainer until they're at the edge.

Atsuro have already pulled up his sleeves and hold out his hand for her.
]

Let's get you out first.
konpeitoqueen: not mine (WAAAAWAAAAAA)

[personal profile] konpeitoqueen 2014-04-05 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
[GRABS. Welp, looks like Atsuro probably has a wet suit sleeve now- and what a shame, he looked pretty fucking snazzy.]

...Uuu... I'm cold... [Most of the bystanders either remain bystanders or just walk away. Just a girl falling in a pool, with not many catching sight of Ishimaru dumping her in.]

[personal profile] babel_hacker 2014-04-05 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
[If it's just water, he can dry it off. Cleaning the chemical out will come later.]

We have to get you a towel or something. [HEY CAN WE GET SOMEONE TO GRAB A TOWEL OVER HERE. Maybe he can leave Pascal here with her if no one's going to...] What happened?
konpeitoqueen: (ew)

[personal profile] konpeitoqueen 2014-04-05 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
[She... contemplates telling him for only around two seconds. She wants buttpats, if he knows what happened, he'd probably just toss her back.]

I fell in the pool! What else? [It's said in a fake, rasped voice, though- so no one else will hear. Hopefully, he'll pass it off as a side-effect of crying.] ...A towel would be nice.
babel_hacker: (Loyal Friend)

[personal profile] babel_hacker 2014-04-06 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[Nah, he won't. He'd actually yell at her instead. But he will ask about this.

He pulls out a Pokeball and let out Pascal. The Arcanine blinks and stares down at Saionji.
]

I'll get you a towel. Just stick with Pascal until I get back.

[Warm dog is warm.]
konpeitoqueen: (sobbu im cute rite)

[personal profile] konpeitoqueen 2014-04-06 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[What a warm dog. She's huddling with the warm dog! Seriously, firedog fur is warm.

She's just... gonna wait, then...]
babel_hacker: (Checking on laptop)

[personal profile] babel_hacker 2014-04-07 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[He is the warmest firedog around! Pascal lies down next to Saionji, looking around at his surroundings. He doesn't know what's up, but something clearly happened for this get to get wet and upset.

After a while, Atsuro quickly returns with a towel in his arms. This suite really have some fluffy towels in their bathrooms!
]

I hope I haven't keep you waiting for too long!

[> Offers TOWEL.]
konpeitoqueen: (sniff sniff)

[personal profile] konpeitoqueen 2014-04-08 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
[YES TOWEL. Nice towel. Nice Atsuro. It was a good choice to exploit you.]

Sniff... [...] Thanks, I guess.

[ACHIEVEMENT GET!!!]

... [And she just stop saying anything, shifting into incredibly awkward mood.]
babel_hacker: (Look to the side | You said something?)

[personal profile] babel_hacker 2014-04-09 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
[ACHIEVEMENT GET!

Atsuro waits for a moment, watching her before he ask a question. You know it's coming, Saionji.
]

...So, what happened?
konpeitoqueen: (pouts aggressively)

[personal profile] konpeitoqueen 2014-04-09 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
[whoops shit]

...I made someone angry. [That's... not a lie.]
babel_hacker: (Classy Suit | Snazzy)

[personal profile] babel_hacker 2014-04-09 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
And why did you make them angry?

[Choose your words wisely, Saionji. Because Atsuro have a very specific line he dislike crossing.]
konpeitoqueen: (sniff sniff)

[personal profile] konpeitoqueen 2014-04-09 09:52 am (UTC)(link)
...

[It's pretty apparent that she has no actual good answer for this. She normally can pull up bullshit from her ass, but this? This is...

Let the silence be her answer, then. Choosing no words might be the smartest choice, really, seeing how terribly askew lying can go with witnesses all around and how Atsuro would probably resent what she's done.]
babel_hacker: (Serious | Not backing down)

[personal profile] babel_hacker 2014-04-10 12:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[That silence is pretty damning. If it's something minor, wouldn't she say something? So it must be pretty terrible, and bad enough for her to get thrown into the pool.]

Saionji...what happened?

[If he know, he would resent it, as a former victim of bullying, but also be very disappointed. Atsuro knows she's not the most nicest person around but there's that line he dislike being crossed.]
konpeitoqueen: (ew)

[personal profile] konpeitoqueen 2014-04-11 08:23 am (UTC)(link)
[It really is, isn't it?]

I offended someone. [That isn't a lie either, but her vagueness is probably rubbing Atsuro the completely wrong way. And for good reason.] I insulted her, and...
babel_hacker: (Serious)

[personal profile] babel_hacker 2014-04-11 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[It does. No one would be vague on purpose, unless it's pretty damn bad.]

You insulted her and it's bad enough for someone to toss you into the pool.

[The disappointment is clear in his voice and in his frown.]
konpeitoqueen: (ew)

[personal profile] konpeitoqueen 2014-04-12 10:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Y E P]

You don't need to repeat it. [She can't exactly muster the energy- and even worse, the pride- to snap back at him loudly.

She's obviously in a spot, and getting pretty uncomfortable.]
Thanks for the towel, but I need to go change now.
babel_hacker: ([Yuzu] Walking together)

[personal profile] babel_hacker 2014-04-12 02:37 pm (UTC)(link)
...Alright. Don't catch a cold.

[Pascal looks up at Atsuro, before he stands up. It seems like Atsuro will be going on his way.]

And you better apologise to her later.
konpeitoqueen: (...huh.)

[personal profile] konpeitoqueen 2014-04-14 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[...SHE WILL, ACTUALLY.

But for now, have her skulk off.]
