C&C HOLIDAY JAMJAR ICE HOTEL HELL: PARTY
WHO: AHAHAHAHA. Just... just tag yourselves in.
WHERE: The Gorsewick Hotel
WHEN: December 19th. 5PM-7PM for setup, 7PM onward for dinner.
WARNINGS: Let's just cover for your basics unless something more specific comes up.
SUMMARY: Miles Edgeworth and Remus Lupin are hosting the second comm-wide holiday party and have rented out the dining hall in the Gorsewick for the night. Everyone comes in for food, warmth, and (relatively... hopefully...) civil company. Whether or not they can leave is another story.
FORMAT: IF IT FEELS GOOD, DO IT! Long prose, action brackets, rapidfire dialogue, present tense, past tense--whatever floats your narrative boat!
The Gorsewick is not all that large a hotel, although it would very much like to grow up to be one someday, a mere five stories tall and having only a small parking garage to its name. The owner is clearly an optimistic sort of fellow, building a place like this in the City despite the risk the existence of imPorts poses to it and the hits the tourism industry has taken from their antics; bigger places than this have been smashed to pieces by enormous grey lizards with bad cases of heartburn.
Sadly, it just isn't paying off. At a time when people should be on vacation, packing his rooms to the max, the Gorsewick is... really, really empty. The groups renting out the dining hall are pretty much the only things keeping it afloat this month.
Still, appearances must be upheld, and although it is mildly understaffed, it is currently no less well-cared for. The handful of people on duty that night are friendly and the place is clean as a whistle--no bugs, no rats, no dust, nothing like that. He may be running a sinking ship, but the owner is damned determined to keep it a tidy one on the way down.
Come on in.

/lives, finally
He turned, watching Bakura come in with an armload, and nodded approvingly. Punctuality did a lot to impress him, and so did people's willingness to work.
"On the rounded tables, if you please."
*gives much tea*
He rotated his left shoulder slowly and carefully, bracing it with a hand as he gave a deep sigh of relief. Oooh, that had been heavy! "I hope I brought enough..." he laughed almost sheepishly.
/slooooowly waking up. also helping: lime ice cream. mmmm.
Speaking of, Edgeworth quickly pulled another three large dishes from the cart nearby and passed them over to Bakura for use in arranging his baked goods as he pleased, thoughtfully eying the young man's shoulder.
"Pull something, did you?"
Actual ice cream, not sorbet?
He carefully undid the pastry boxes, checking on the state of the cake and fretting a little over some of the strawberries that had shifted on the ride over. Thankfully it hadn't moved around much so it looked almost as good as it had when he had packed it up.
yes
"Very well. Let Lupin or myself know if you need any assistance."
Edgeworth gave a sharp nod, then, and left the teenager to set up, intending to intercept someone else who'd just appeared before they could head the complete wrong direction.
Neat!
Despite outward appearances, Edgeworth was a nice sort, wasn't he? With a smile, he went back to setting up the trays.
