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.

"It's a party," Aphrodite rolled her eyes at Annabeth. This is why Athena shouldn't have children. "Of course I'm going to be happy. But this is all about you being happy."

She put her hands on her hips and smiled mischievously. "Now you had better have fun or I'll have to do something to some of these boys to make sure you do."

Annabeth just blinked at the woman, and then narrowed her eyes pointedly. "I'll try." She finally stated. What could she do to threaten Aprhodite, after all? "But you better not. I have a boyfriend, remember? What could you do to them that would suddenly make me have fun."

She shook her head and looked away.

"I'm kidding," she said. "I could do something, but I won't unless you make me. I'm here to have fun. The love goddess is off the clock."

"Now, lets go find the fun," she grabbed onto Annabeth's arm and started to lead her around. "It's not cheating if you just look...or dance...or flirt."
wisestcamper: (Blah.)

"Well I'm not going to make you so don't think about it." Somehow, she doubted Aphrodite was ever 'off the clock' but she wasn't going to say that out loud. Instead she just sighed as she was led around, careful to keep from bumping into people.

"I know it's not. I don't think I know how to flirt, anyway... It's just..." She shrugged. "I wish Percy were here. And stuff like this, I mean...Well, he'd probably hate it, but at least it'd be fun together." She doesn't mean to mope, really. She honestly was there to have fun. Sometimes she's just bad at it.

It was the same argument they always had, and Aphrodite wasn't listening to her this time anymore than any other time. And there she went bringing up everything making her sad. "Hey hey hey," Aphrodite interrupted. "No more of that!"

"You are going to socialize and make new friends even if I have to throw a spell on you to do it."

(shall they start crashing threads?)
wisestcamper: (*sigh*)

Annabeth actually laughed at that, mostly because she knew the woman would probably do that. "Fine, sorry. I'll try, okay? Honestly. It's not like I want to feel crappy, you know."

(sure!)

"Yeah I know," Aphrodite said. "You're just really good at it."

A conspiritorial smirk appeared on Aphrodite's face. "I wonder what you'd do if I pushed you at someon."

(any preference who 'dite literally throws her at?)
wisestcamper: (This is a great idea.)

"That's not...bleh." She just sighed and shook her head. And then she looked a little panicked. "You wouldn't."

(nnooooope. Surprise her. :P )
