☆ 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.

Alright.

[Well, that went well. And now Masato has returned to that awkward self. He just glances away and wonders if Ren wants him to leave now or not.]
saxsongs: ➥ Anime (2000%) (Relaxed smile)

[Now that Ren thinks about it, this might, no, this will be the last chance to talk with Hijirikawa in a long while. So after the glance he smiles with a more relaxed look on his face.]

What have you been up to?

Ah... Nothing much. Mitsuki and I have been sewing for prom.

[His girlfriend appreciates his homely talents and they make beautiful sweaters together.]

I think we both plan on training once we're done.

...And you? It's been a while.
saxsongs: ➥ Game (Neutrality)

[personal profile] saxsongs 2014-04-18 11:03 am (UTC)(link)
Isn't it nice, doing something you like to do with someone you like?

[Not sure if training can count as pleasant thing to do, but at least they'd do it together.]

We've mostly kept a low profile. It's been rather nice, living with just the two of us... though, I have nothing against traveling with you guys after all the commotion ends.
pianosongs: (running my fingers all over your...piano)

[personal profile] pianosongs 2014-04-18 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Indeed, it does. Although Shinomiya's been a very welcome help as well.

[The remark has him smiling a little. The mentions of Mitsuki just make him happy. He's a big ol' dork.]

Perhaps. But I imagine you'll both skip off on the honeymoon for a while. We'll have to get used to your absence.
saxsongs: ➥ Game (Ahh... about that)

[personal profile] saxsongs 2014-04-19 03:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I hope he hasn't been a third wheel for you two.

[Poor Shinomii. If only the other STARISH members were here, then he'd have company as well. Or then they would need to get him a girlfriend.

The talk about travelin and honeymoon makes Ren feel a bit more distressed. He started this though, so he's not complaining. Besides, it would look suspicious if he did, huh?]


It's not like we're getting married right away.
pianosongs: (but what if my cookies burn?)

[personal profile] pianosongs 2014-04-20 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah... Actually, he's been quite helpful. He's been assisting with the project while he's been around.

[He sighs softly.] I do wish we could find someone with him, though... [He reflects on the time they decided to go to prom... with him.]

This is true... Perhaps we should hog all of our time with you while you're still just engaged.
saxsongs: ➥ Official art (Nope)

[personal profile] saxsongs 2014-04-21 12:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, he is quite useful... when he wants to be.

[Or when Syo isn't around. That might help too.

He frowns at the later comment.]


Perhaps not.
