☆ 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.

THE ORIGINAL INFOPOST | QUESTIONS AND INQUIRIES HOTLINE | DAY ONE: THE LOG | DAY THREE: THE LOG
no subject
[He definitely needs the sleep though. (Un?)Luckily he's a pretty light sleeper even in this state, so looming and saying his name is enough for his eye to snap open before hi sits bolt upright.]
Kirigiri?! What the hell!?
no subject
[That's not actually why she's here, but given that the guy is covered in dirt and blood, it warrants asking.
...
if only to figure out whose blood it is, really, because with the a murderschool alumnus you never know.]
no subject
[...actually, even though nobody's dead, it's safe to say that not all that blood is Kuzuryuu's. He did manage to get a few solid hits in, even though Yusuke ultimately beat him. Heck, he even drew first blood. BECAUSE FIGHTING WITH RINGS ON HAS ITS PERKS.]
I got into a fight, what's it to you?
no subject
[AND SHE IS A MURDERSCHOOL ALUMNUS, DOES SHE NEED TO SPELL THIS OUT FOR YOU SON]
Is anyone else injured?
[and in the event that you killed somebody did you actually leave it in a secure place or are we going to trip over it while looking for the bathroom—]
no subject
[Give him some credit, if Kuzuryuu killed somebody you definitely wouldn't find the body today.]
[Or tomorrow.]
[...possibly not at all, depending on the circumstances.]
no subject
Is medical attention necessary?
no subject
I'm fine. He's fine. Everything's fine. This better not be all you fucking woke me up for though, or you might need some.
[Kuzuryuu one fight is enough for the day. Please stop.]
no subject
[Honestly, she probably wouldn't have woken him up if it hadn't been for all the blood and whatnot, but then there he was looking like that, so...]
no subject
N...No!!
[The gangster doth protest too much, methinks.]
no subject
OR SHE'S BATMAN
but you know.]
Mm.
[Sure you didn't.]
Also, about Saionji-san...
no subject
[But oh, hey. Saionji. Let's focus on her instead!!!]
What about her? Look, if it's about that shit with the Spoinks, that was all her doing. The rest of us had nothing to do with it.
no subject
[Let's...let's just settle Poolgate before we get into any business with the Spoinks, shall we.]
It would be better if she could be persuaded to stay away from Fujisaki-san from now on.
no subject
[Understandably...]
no subject
[Well, here we go.]
There was a photograph taken, of her in the pool. Mostly by mistake, but it's clear enough to identify all the relevant parties.
no subject
[Kirigiri, are you about to change his opinion of you here?]
no subject
[Strictly under the table, of course. That's how all the gangsters are doing it, isn't it?]
no subject
[Because all he can think is that she's going to try and pry more sweet endgame spoilers out of him in exchange for the pictures.]
What sort of arrangement?
no subject
Fujisaki-san trumps even the thirst for deets, evidently.]
It's to be used solely for the purposes of ensuring her compliance in this matter. No personal vendettas. I'll hold on to the photo and deliver you copies as needed. Is that fair?
no subject
[...because he could have very easily earned himself a pooldunking as well, let's not kid ourselves.]
I thought you didn't want me continuing the family business. This sounds an awful lot like blackmail to me, Kirigiri.
[He's not...complaining about this. In fact, the smirk is back in full.]
no subject
...Philosophically, anyway.]
I don't want you continuing the family business. I also don't want unnecessary conflict between our classes. Assuming that you're the most qualified person to act in furtherance of that particular end isn't the same thing as soliciting blackmail.
[...Philosophically, anyway.]
no subject
[You flatterer, you.]
Keep telling yourself that if that's what helps you sleep at night. But alright, you've got yourself a deal.
[Cahoooooooooooooots.]
And don't worry, despite what you might think, I've got my fucking standards. I don't need your photos or your help to take care of my own personal vendettas.
[So...in other words, he's definitely only going to use these photos to protect Fujisaki. Yakuza's honor.]
no subject
...look it's not exactly a close race, let's put it that way.]
Despite what you might think, I don't have any problem with you. I'd also prefer it stay that way.
[Excellent. Business settled, then.]
no subject
[...because, yeah, the competition really isn't that stiff is it?]
Heh, if these are the sort of conversations I can expect in the future, you just might get your wish.
[You are infinitely more tolerable when you're not trying to poke around in his business, Kirigiri. Just saying.]
no subject
[There's a little extra emphasis on those last two words, which is probably the result of the universal translator; more likely than not, she was very deliberately choosing the phrase "ninkyō dantai", and something just got a little lost in the translation.]
Sleep well, Kuzuryuu-kun. There's another full night of standing guard lying ahead of you still.
no subject
H...hey! I told you it wasn't fucking like that!!
[He's not even touching the "ninkyō dantai" thing, he's still not quite sure what the emotion he's feeling about that is. When in doubt, stick to what you know: vehemently deny any accusations of being a decent person who cares about his classmates.]
[Except...he wasted so much time trying to process two emotional commands at once that Kirigiri's probably already gone by now. Good going there, Kuzuryuu.]
