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).

You're super tiny, so even if you do step on me it won't hurt much.

[-- Whoa, wait, can he take that back? He stutters through his words and does his best to look at anyone and anything other than Chihiro.]

N-Not that being small is bad or anything! My brother is bigger than I am so it's not like I'm -- ... Y-You know...
codeforhope: [game sprite] (● when it goes)

[personal profile] codeforhope 2015-01-09 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[Chihiro catches on to Rin's stuttering quickly and shakes his head a bit, making it a point to look up at him even though he's trying to look away.]

N-no....no, it's okay. I understand what you meant.

[And he knows you didn't mean it maliciously. There's...a difference.]
pinnedbangs: (kushi kushi fais)

[personal profile] pinnedbangs 2015-01-10 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
R-Right. ...Okay, that's good. It happens a lot...

[If Chihiro was making an effort to look at him and reassure him that all was well, then maybe it was okay to look back. Rin makes eye contact for just a second before quickly looking away again.

The song changes to another easy beat.]


...You wanna dance to this one too?
codeforhope: (● when you feel my heat ●)

[personal profile] codeforhope 2015-01-10 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
I...if you want to, I don't mind.

[That was a bit awkward, he'll admit...so maybe this would give room for them both to loosen back up again.]
pinnedbangs: (appreciation fais)

[personal profile] pinnedbangs 2015-01-10 04:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[Rin's not-so-secret secret is that he is a huge bundle of awkward social skills. But he tries!! Even though trying makes things worse!!]

Really?! [Chihiro, you just might end up regretting this... Rin's far too happy to hear that. It wasn't really a yes, but it wasn't a no either! There's an extra bounce in his step with this dance. He's a little more careful this time as he swings Chihiro around with him. It wouldn't do to accidentally swing his dance partner into a wall.]

I don't mind either - but if you want to stop that's okay too. 'm not gonna hold it against you or anything.

[personal profile] codeforhope 2015-01-10 07:07 pm (UTC)(link)
It's okay, really! This is actually very fun.

[And it is very enjoyable, to be honest. Getting past the inevitable awkwardness of it all, they really are just dancing for fun, after all. And it isn't like the other couples are scrutinizing what they are doing...right?]
pinnedbangs: (u aint so bad)

[personal profile] pinnedbangs 2015-01-10 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[...Chihiro, that was a very sweet thing to say.]

It is! You - You really make it look super easy~. Probably 'cause you're wearing a dress and all.

[Since. You know. Dresses don't have pant legs. . . . And pant legs get in the way of dancing . . . ?

Oh yeah there are other people here. Probably watching. Not that Rin is going to notice, right? It's not like it's all that weird for two people to dance together, r-right? Right??!]
codeforhope: [game sprite] (● suddenly though)

[personal profile] codeforhope 2015-01-10 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah....probably.

[He looks down at his feet again, blushing a bit more deeply than he had been in the first place.]
pinnedbangs: (should I be concerned fais)

[personal profile] pinnedbangs 2015-01-10 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
It's a really nice dress too -

[OH MY GOSH NO. CHIHIRO, DON'T DO THAT!! Rin leans a little closer to Chihiro to try and catch his gaze.]

...hey, what's wrong?
codeforhope: (● and the blood's run stale)

[personal profile] codeforhope 2015-01-11 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
[Chihiro blinks and glances up quickly, meeting Rin's gaze for just a moment before looking away again.]

N-nothing. It's nothing. I, um...I'm getting a bit tired, I guess. That's all.
pinnedbangs: (bloody smiling fais)

[personal profile] pinnedbangs 2015-01-11 08:13 am (UTC)(link)
[Rin's pretty blunt, but he can figure out when someone is uncomfortable. He nods and takes a step back. He really doesn't want to push Chihiro into an uncomfortable position. Chihiro seemed too nice for that.]

Hey, no problem~. We could take a break here, if you aren't feeling too good. It would suck if you got too tired before the fireworks started!
codeforhope: (● you can turn a phrase)

[personal profile] codeforhope 2015-01-11 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[His smile returns a little at those words, and he nods as well.]

Mhm. This was fun, though. I'm glad we did it.

[He probably would have just remained a wallflower for the remainder of the dance otherwise, after all.]
pinnedbangs: (u aint so bad)

[personal profile] pinnedbangs 2015-01-11 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
So am I. So. Y'know... Thanks for dancing with me!

[See, a smile looks much better than a frown. Rin backs up a little more, a silly grin plastered on his face.]

I should go find my brother. He's probably hiding in a corner like you were. ...But -

[that grin of his seems to grow just a little wider] - if there's another dance, we should partner up again!
codeforhope: (● when your dreams all fail)

[personal profile] codeforhope 2015-01-11 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
You're welcome.

[He reaches up to tuck his hair behind his ear again, if only just to give his hands something to do.]

And I...I would like that, Okumura-san.
pinnedbangs: (tsun fais)

[personal profile] pinnedbangs 2015-01-11 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[This time it catches him off guard, try as he might to avert his eyes. It was so simple but - maybe it was just the hair clips that made it look endearing? He should stop looking.]

You don't have to be so polite, Fujisaki.

[. . . Usually it was super cool to have a respectable honorific follow his name but... --Okay, maybe he was asking for too much. Forget it. He turns on his heel and starts walking away, sparing only a single backward glance.]

I'll see you around!
codeforhope: (● we still are made of greed ●)

[personal profile] codeforhope 2015-01-11 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[He offers a small wave, already pulling back to get off of the dance floor.]

Goodbye.
