☆ 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.

Nice to met you, Hoshina Utau! I'm Maylene, Fighting Gym Leader in the Sinnoh region.
[And with that, her smile grows a bit sheepish.] I don't even know how I got the job, honestly. You're so upbeat! You should come try Sinnoh's region sometime. I bet you're strong; we'd probably have a great match!
no subject
She reminds her player of Clair too!Well, in all honesty, Amu is her best friend nowadays, so it's actually nice meeting someone, who reminds her. It would be a lie to think that she doesn't like this gym leader at all, though Clair is her obvious favorite with their love for dragon-types and all that.]Sinnoh, huh? That would be an interesting place to get to.
[Or any other region, really. More powerful creatures with elemental powers? That's always interesting.
... upbeat? Excuse Utau, while she looks surprised for a moment. No one has, probably ever, called her an upbeat person.] Isn't it because they thought you were the best person to handle a Fighting Gym there? [... isn't it? Do they get it with respect or is everything just random here?] And I will definitely come to Sinnoh, if we ever get to go there. Of course I'm strong. [Confident, very confident.] And also what people call a workaholic, it's not like I let my team slack off from training either. We'd really have a great match. ...Let's have a great ramen challenge today too.
[She can be chatty, sometimes, apparently since you're like Amu, you get that side of her out a lot.]
no subject
[She grins. This girl is pretty great; very confident, ready to match, and Maylene completely bypasses the idea that she surprised her. She's just happy to get this challenge started.]
It'll be one of the best yet! I'm already starving for it!!
no subject
[Says the girl, who might more or less beat the gyms of Johto and Kanto with the level 100s she has -- or then not, she'll decide later.]
So, how long are we going to wait to get started? [ look, others just decided to go home as soon as they saw Utau here.]
