☆ 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.

THERE you are! WHY did you leave? Master is worried about you!
Shiruku lowers her head a little, dropping her chin on Shaun's arm.
I'm sorry...I didn't mean it. I just got tired of staying inside all morning...
To be fair, Chihiro hadn't really been planning on leaving any time soon, either. Zip hovers back a little, making small gestures to the sleeping area with his feet. This way!]
no subject
Is this your teammate? I guess your trainer's prolly worried about you too, huh?
[They follow Zip's gesture into the sleeping area, which has been mostly vacated by this time of day.]
Hello? I found your pokemon outside...
no subject
He looks up at the voice, surprised to see that Zip has brought back not only Shiruku, but a whole trainer and his Pokemon besides.
Chihiro moves to lift the Eevee into his arms before standing, approaching until he is stopped by Zip, who darts over and proceeds to shove himself into Chihiro's face and let out a few soft beeps. Yes hello he's happy to see you too, Zip.]
O-oh! ...Thank you for bringing her here.....I'm very sorry...s-she wasn't bothering you, was she?
no subject
N-no, not at all. She was just scared because she got lost, and I wanted to help her find her trainer again.
[He knows what it's like to be alone and separated, and it's probably a good thing that he couldn't understand that the Sewaddle was referring to her trainer as 'Papa'.]
I'm just glad I found you so quick! I'm Shaun.
no subject
I see....she must have gotten tired of staying in here...
[He can't blame her, really. He has been in here for most of the morning..]
I-it's nice to meet you, Shaun-kun. I'm Chihiro Fujisaki.
[He pauses before adding.]
But you can call me Chihiro, if you'd like.
no subject
Shaun is glad that Chihiro elaborated on what to call him. He's okay with Japanese names after having so many friends but he likes to be sure.]
Okay, it's nice to meet you too, Chihiro! Have you been in here all day?
no subject
[That's a bit embarrassing to say, but it's....kindof true. (If we're saying this happens before Ishimaru took him to the falls, which we are because Chi has goldfish memory and what are timelines, so....yes)]
I...had an egg to hatch in the middle of the night, so I've been....watching over her, you see.
[Not a lie, but not completely the truth either.]
no subject
Oh, really? That's so neat! Which one hatched?
[If he had to guess he'd say the Eevee that she's holding but he doesn't want to assume.]
no subject
This one. I've been watching the egg for a few weeks now, but I thought she wasn't due to hatch for another few days..
[...SURPRIIISE.]
no subject
[He holds out his hand for the little Eevee to sniff.]
Can I pet her?
no subject
[As if to confirm the permission, the baby leans her head up slightly so she can nuzzle her cheek against Shaun's palm.]
no subject
Does she have a name yet?
no subject
no subject
What's your other ones' names?
no subject
This is Shiruku, Zip, and...
[He points over to a pile of blankets where he had been sleeping, a Zigzagoon rolled over onto his back with his legs in the air, fast asleep.]
Isamu.
