[OPEN] Valentine's Auction & Party!

WHO: Open!
WHAT:
Valentine's Auction & Party!

WHEN:
2/07/2016

WHERE: The Castle Royale Hotel, Genessia City.
WARNINGS: None.


The event space in the Castle Royale Hotel in Genessia City was decorated for this event. Pink hearts and other decorations were tastefully hung and placed all over the place to help people get into that romantic type of mood. It took quite a while to decorate it all, but it would take less time to get it all down once the event was over.

Just approaching the hotel, you would be able to hear the sound of music faintly playing. The event would have been awkward if there wasn’t any DJ at all to play music to get people in the dancing sort of mood. The DJ has their little area set up so he could entertain the guests with various genres of music. Some slow, some fast, some in-between. But the one thing it has in common is it is all something you can dance to.

The event officially starts at 5PM, but the doors themselves open at 4PM. Though at that time, things are still being set up, but you won't be asked to leave if you decide to sit around and wait for it to start.

[ooc: Below there will be 4 separate threads posted for all of the areas available. Feel free to use them or post your own outside of them. The auction now closed. Don't bid more in the auction than your character would plausibly have. For instance, if they don't have a job, they can't bid 10,000 redbills. Bidding should be done within their actual means.

The Auction will end on Feb 13th, 11:59PM]

Trevenant definitely understood, so long as she used simple words. Like praise, which he adored. Still, that didn't sound like a definite 'yes' to him. Time to keep plowing ahead.

"Trev! Nant? Nant? Nant?"

(Thanks! So, do I win? Did the date start? Are you taking me somewhere?)

[It's not leaving... The way it grunts sound familiar now...]

"...Are you a Pokemon?"

[How many are there?]
youfool: (Default)

[personal profile] youfool 2016-02-09 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)

It nodded vigorously. (Yep, yep, yep! Wow, good guess! Hey, can you guess my name? Come on, guess!)

[Anastasia doesn't understand.]

"Where is your owner, and what do you want from me?"

[There has to be a way to understand it.]
youfool: (Trevenant)

[personal profile] youfool 2016-02-09 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
He shook his head once. (Close, my name is 'Trevenant.') It made letters with his hands as best as it could manage. (T-R-E-V-E-N-A-N-T. Trevenant!) Ooh, but where was Ted? Good question.

He pointed to himself. (my) Then he mimed holding a pokeball in his palm (master), before making two legs with his fingers and kicking them through the air ( is walking around somewhere). He put away the finger-legs and spread his arms far and wide (probably having a biiiiig adventure.) He then stuck out his arms like a clock, counting down the hours. (He won't be back for a while.)

He pointed to himself again. (I) He shook the currency at Anastasia. (Want to bid) Then a dramatic point in her direction. (On you!) He tilted his head back and forth, expectantly. (So did I win? Huh? Huh?)

"Oh... So your owner went to see a giant clock?"

[That didn't sound right.]

"And why exactly are you giving me money for...? Maybe I can see if Sylvia can help translate...?"

[She made it a habit to bring her Sylveon around just in case.]
youfool: (Trevenant)

[personal profile] youfool 2016-02-09 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
He clasped his hands and brought them to his cheek, like the pose of a fangirl. (You think so? Master is so cool! I wish I could see a giant clock.)

He put his 'chin' in his hands, trying to think how to get across the concept of an auction. He'd seen a tv show of the process.

Quickly, he sprung to one side as if he were addressing an audience, hands on an imaginary podium, then said his name rapidly, like a fast-talking auctioneer. (One berry bid do I see two? Two berry bid give me two berry bid do I see three?) He then switched to the theoretical bidder, jumping back to the opposite position and raising increasing amounts of berries in his hands. (Sold, sold to the Trevenant with three berries!)

He did a gracious bow before marching in place with a loop in his arm, pretending to walk off with a girl in tow. (And that's how an auction works! I think.)

His interest was thoroughly piqued at the mention of this mysterious "Sylvia." He put his hands together in front, like an eager petitioner. (Yes, yes, please bring that person out! I wanna see!)

[Anastasia still didnt understand that, so the logical action was to try her Sylveon. Retrieving the pokeball from her pocket, she released the Fairy type pokemon.]

"Syl, Sylveon~"

"Sylvia, can you find out what this pokemon wants?"

"Vie~

[The Sylveon saluted her trainer with her ribbon-like feelers before turning to the Trevenant with a fang-filled smile.]

(Hi! I'm Sylvia! My master wants to know what you want from her.)
youfool: (Trevenant)

[personal profile] youfool 2016-02-09 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow, another pokemon! This was turning into a windfall day for Trevenant.

(Hi Sylvia! It's so cool that I was talking to a pokemon trainer this whole time! I'm Trevenant.) He flapped the bill at Sylvia. (I'm trying to bid on her for the auction, but I guess I'm pretty bad at this game cause she's confused. If only I was as smart as Gengar, but he said that won't happen so I better get used to being dumb for the rest of my life.

Oh well! Could you try telling her instead? I really wanna win this game!)
innocent_royal: (Caught interest)

[personal profile] innocent_royal 2016-02-09 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Anastasia took a seat whike her Sylveon did the talking.]

(I don't understand either, Trevenant. What is the game?)
youfool: (Trevenant)

[personal profile] youfool 2016-02-09 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
That got him talking.

(Oh it's really fun! It's called "Auction." See, you take this paper that your master gives you, find a girl, and then raise it up high as you can! That's called a "bid". If she accepts the bid, then you win and get to spend the rest of the day with that person and do whatever you want! I'm so excited.)
innocent_royal: (Caught interest)

[personal profile] innocent_royal 2016-02-09 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Sylvia crossed her feelers together thoughtfully.]

(That's a weird game... Why would you want to trade paper for my master? What do you want to do with her?)
youfool: (Trevenant)

[personal profile] youfool 2016-02-09 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
(Really? I think it sounds awesome!) He stared at the bill, clearly ignorant of what it represents. (Umm...beats me! I think it's just a playing piece. Like those red circles in that red-and-black circle game. I haven't really thought about what to do yet; but I know some great places! Ooh, like that big mountain with all the other pokemon. There were so many berries there. Tons! Or the forest--I love places like that cause I can talk to the trees and stuff--or we could go there.) He pointed to the dance floor.

(You can shake till you're dizzy there! I'm really good at that. Or maybe we could just tell stories; master reads to me all the time so I know some good ones.

Oh, but it probably depends on what she likes too I guess. It depends on who I win probably.)
innocent_royal: (Caught interest)

[personal profile] innocent_royal 2016-02-09 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[Sylvia then rubbed her chin with a feeler.]

(I see. And why are you looking for human girls like my master when you can do those with yours? It is a very weird game...)
youfool: (Trevenant)

[personal profile] youfool 2016-02-09 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
He hopped in place a little bit, feeling antsy.

(Yeah it's my first time playing. I hope I do a good job! Ummm...well I guess if there were girl pokemon to bid for I could do that. Your master was the first one I saw so I tried her first. I think it's supposed to be humans or something cause it's more special. Yeah, that's what Gengar said. He said that today's a very special day so we have to take advantage and try new things. Isn't he so cool? He always say cool stuff like that.)

[Sylvia sighed as she tried to think of how to explain to her master. ]

(Did Gengar use any specific words?)
youfool: (Trevenant)

[personal profile] youfool 2016-02-09 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
(Oh yeah, lots! He used words like "Valentine's", "day", "auction", "party", "auction", "bid"...) He went on to use very keyword this event could reasonably be described with.

(Isn't that why you're master's here? Or is she just using the hotel normally to sleep?)
innocent_royal: (Caught interest)

[personal profile] innocent_royal 2016-02-09 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
(Valentine's day? I know that one. You want my master to be your Valentine?)

[Sylvia shook her head.]

(My master is very sad because one of her friends left. She's here trying to try to be happy again.)
youfool: (Trevenant)

[personal profile] youfool 2016-02-10 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
(Yeah, that's it! If I win the bid I mean. But I don't see anyone else so I think I've got this in the bag!)

His momentum halted a bit at the bad news.

(Oh yeah something like that happened to me too! I lost almost all of my friends a long time [aka a few months] ago. Master was really sad so I was sad too. But then Gengar said that they were just going on an adventure far away, and that one day they'd come back and we'd get to swap stories and see how strong we've become! Gengar's so cool; he knows a bunch of stuff like that. Then he punched me and said thinking about people who aren't here is rude to the ones that are here, so I thought about that instead.

So why's your master sad? Does she not know that her friend's on a far-away adventure too? You should tell her. I would but I'm dumb."
innocent_royal: (Caught interest)

[personal profile] innocent_royal 2016-02-10 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
[Sylvia tilted her head to the side.]

(I don't know if my master wants to pair off with a pokemon, but I can ask. Do you want me to?

As for why she's sad, I think it was because her friend leaving was sudden.)
youfool: (Trevenant)

[personal profile] youfool 2016-02-10 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
(Yes please! Ask ask ask!) He fanned Anastasia with the bill, just in case she forgot the token of the game.

(Huh, that must've been a really exciting adventure! Well that's okay cause then you'll have a bunch of cool stories to share when you see each other again.

Oh, but you know what might work? Whenever Gengar's feeling mad or sad or bored or just whatever, he punches me to feel better!) He starts counting off his fingers.

(It relieves stress, it's good exercise, and he says I'm super tough so he can punch me a lot! If your master is still upset, ask her to give that a try. Can't hurt!)
innocent_royal: (Sad)

[personal profile] innocent_royal 2016-02-10 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Sylvia started to growl at Trevenant. This made Anastasia react curiously.]

(I will not attack my master, and she won't hurt me. Now then, I'll tell her.)

[Sylvia turned to her trainer and used her ribbon-like feelers to make, hopefully, comprehensive gestures.]

(Syl~) [She points a feeler at Trevenant.] (Vie~) [Then points at Anastasia.] (Sylveon~) [Then brought both feelers together over her head to make a heart.]

"...what..."

[Anastasia can't believe what she saw. Now she finally understand and she very quickly looks very upset now.]

"I'm being asked out...by a tree monster?!"

[The young girl dropped her head onto the table in a distinct thud, startling her Sylveon. Sylvia looked at Trevenant.]

(I think that's a no.)
youfool: (Trevenant)

[personal profile] youfool 2016-02-10 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
He put one arm behind his head, the other outstretched and waving. (No, silly, I meant me! You're probably too soft to punch.)

He took the rejection in stride.

(Darn! Oh well, thanks for interpreting! Your feelers are really neat. You could totally be a pokemon-human ambassador or something. Bye Sylvia! Bye Sylvia's master! It was nice to meet you. Let's play together again sometime okay?) He waved and trod across the upper floor, eager to get back in the game.
