Why Don't You Go Where Fashion Sits?

Who: Participants of the Kalosmas New Year's Event!
Where: The Hotel Richissime, in scenic Lumiose City, Kalos!
When: Wednesday, December 31 - Thursday, January 1!
Summary: After all the shenanigans of Hoennween, it's about time everybody had a chance to relax and unwind, courtesy of some actually benign NPCs. With all the luxuries of the Hotel Richissime waiting at their disposal, that shouldn't be too difficult a prospect!
Rating: PG in general; please mark threads that go higher accordingly!

A FEW OTHER SETTING NOTES:

• At the moment, this log spans the entirety of the New Year's Eve plot, so starters may be posted for any time on either day of the event. If things start getting massive and it looks like an overflow log will be necessary, we'll definitely see about putting one up, and will link it to this one if need be.

• The Event Itinerary can be found here! Remember that participating in this course of events is not mandatory, but it's what will be going on in the grand scheme of things over the course of the event.

• All event participants are being housed on the fourth and fifth floors of the hotel. Your bedrooms are laid out like this; if you participated in our IC Rooming Roulette, you can find your buddy on this table here!

Most activities here will be free! ICly, your characters will use their room cards to "pay" for most things, and the charges will be applied to their room (which of course, they are not paying for personally). Gift shops, parts of the casino, and food not provided as part of the event are not chargeable to your rooms and characters will have to use their own money in those locations.

• Underage characters may use the casino; however, they may be subject to some social scrutiny and side-eyeing in the event that they attempt to get in on one of the high-roller tables.


A NOTE ABOUT USING THREADS ON THIS LOG FOR AC:

Because of how our AC period works (the grace week into January still counting toward December), all threads on this log are valid toward December's AC, regardless of timestamp! However, because the log technically spans two different months and we want to encourage tagging out on it, we have also made this decision:

On this log and this log alone, comment threads timestamped in January (OOCly) that reach AC-length may be used towards January's AC, as well. Therefore, if a thread on this log reaches AC length with 10+ comments timestamped in January, you can use it toward January's AC (assuming the same thread has not already been used to satisfy December's AC).

pipers_son: (leyline) ("Five things that make you perfect. Go.")

Probably.

[What? He's not going to lie. If some of the circus games are a bit more rigged than they should be, well, he can almost guarantee that gambling games for actual money at a casino are definitely rigged.]

Might have more luck in cards with people than a machine.

[personal profile] angerpoints 2015-01-02 05:08 am (UTC)(link)
Tch... yeah, maybe.

[Yusuke gazes sullenly over at the card tables. After a moment, he looks back at Joker and indicates the tables with a jerk of his chin, the corner of his mouth turning up in a wry smirk.]

Hey. You play?
pipers_son: (I like to think it a success when)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2015-01-02 09:10 am (UTC)(link)
[This seems like a recipe for disaster, so of course Joker gives a grin of his own and shrugs.]

Well, haven't played in a while since I haven't been able ta cut cards, but I know how..

[He may or may not be a filthy fucking cheat, but ssshhh.]

[personal profile] angerpoints 2015-01-03 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
You wanna go a round? I'm a pretty damn good poker player, if I do say so myself.

[READ: he may or may not also be a filthy fucking cheat. Rest in pieces, everybody.]
pipers_son: (icons-for-the-baes) (He has a British accent.)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2015-01-03 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
[...They are so getting kicked out of this goddamn casino, aren't they? Either way, Joker seems up to it, grinning widely as he heads towards the poker table.]

Well, outta be more fun than messin' about with machines, if ya ask me!

[personal profile] angerpoints 2015-01-06 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Hell yeah.

[AND WITH THAT, YUSUKE GETS UP AND FOLLOWS JOKER TO THE POKER TABLE, his intensely chagrined Wurmple on his shoulder and a rather devious grin on his face. Yeah, there's no way in hell they aren't gonna get booted out. But hey, at least they'll probably have fun until then, right? Right? Riiight.

Despite how crowded the casino and the arcade are, the poker table is surprisingly vacant at the moment. In fact, there are only three players there, with three seats available for anyone feeling brave enough to join. The dealer gives Joker and Yusuke a bit of a funny look when they approach, but doesn't stop them from sitting down - just smiles, greets them, then tells them the game.]


Five cards stud, huh.

[Yusuke glances over at Joker as he takes his seat.]

You know it?
pipers_son: (I like to think it a success when)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2015-01-07 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
[As Joker takes his own, he just gives an innocent grin to the dealer and waves his hand jauntily. Don't mind him! He's just a harmless invalid sort, no need to worry. How could he possibly be a problem?]

[The name of the game makes him laugh a bit.]


Even I know that! Glad ta see it's still around~.

[At least, so long as the rules stay the same as what he knows. Most other things have been the same, so hopefully his luck will hold.]

You?
