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.

Remus isn't going to touch them if he can help it. In fact, there's already a transfiguration spell on his lips if Zoro proves unwilling. He'd be willing to allow the swords, if they were no longer weapons.

"This is a peaceful gathering. Weapons of war won't be tolerated. Even if you won't use them, there is always a chance that someone else might."

Zoro practically bristles at the suggestion. His eyes narrow even more, his grip tightening on the sheaths. "I never let them leave my side. No one would be able to touch them."

"Unfortunately, there's no way for you to guarantee that. I can't allow you in with them as they are now."

He's considering summoning them just to prove the point, but waits for a reply.

He grits his teeth, makes a noise of frustration, and loosens his grip. "Where am I supposed to put them?"

"My partner's car, if you'd like. It's a bit safer than leaving them out on the sidewalk."

"And they'll be safe there?"
