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.

The touch was reward by a warm smile as Bakura nodded. "Un! With time to spare!" He flashed a brief Victory sign. "Sleep well?"

He shyly reached a hand out to catch Quatre's free one.

Quatre makes up for the shyness, catching Ryou's hand just before it touches his, and twining their fingers tightly. That may be a smirk, tilting his lips up at the corner now. He's never had the chance to be this openly affectionate with anyone but Kory, so having the sudden opportunity is new. Maybe something to take advantage of more now.

"Not really, but I'll be okay," he assures.
shiromadoushi: (Small smile)

There was a very faint blush on Bakura's cheeks as he holds Quatre's hand. Part of him was still amazed that something like this was even real. And that it didn't even need to be hidden at that!

"You'll have to be sure to get to bed early tonight then." A pause. "And not fall asleep on the couch this time," he added with a light tease. Not that he had minded, really, even if he had been a little stiff in the morning. It had been kind of nice...

Whoa...Alastair saw that. From across the room, yes, but he can see it and wow. So many questions.

Trowa is many things. Strange, yes. Generally something of a loner most days. A bit of a creeper, if necessary. Quiet and clever. An excellent observer of people and their reactions.

He's also, on special occasions, something of a catty bitch.

"You didn't know?" From behind Alastair, someone speaks in a low voice, the words taking on juuust a hint of mocking tone. "Pretty hard to miss."
hackeralastair: (blankly talking)

"What?" Alastair turned toward Trowa. "No! I mean...I got the feeling he was getting chatty with somebody, but..."

If anyone ever doubted that Alastair was a self-absorbed young man, this would be a big clue.

He allows himself a small hmm before backing up a step, out of Alastair's line of sight.

"Mind your surroundings," he advises his friend, looking off to the side and at the doors to the dinner hall. "You might see something."

The something sounds a little fainter than the rest, and it has good reason to. The brunet's slipped away, and there are enough people clogging the lobby at the moment that he can't be seen.

Alastair wanted to ask what the fuck that meant, but he lost his chance. Grumbling to himself, he went elsewhere in search of entertainment - or a drink. Free booze time.
