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 recognizes her immediately, knowing that particular shade of red is just a little too similar to her dress to be at all natural. The fact that she so rarely changed the shape of her face and had tripped on entry helped. It didn't ruin how good she looked, but Remus wasn't going to admit he'd even thought that, greeting her within moments of entry.

"I know it's no Hogwarts ball, but we've put a certain bit of charm in it. Sirius is doing whatever he can and you've only added to the atmosphere. How do you like it?"

"Wotcher, Remus!" she beams, greeting him with a quick hug.

"It all looks amazing, yeah," she replies, grinning, as she takes another quick look around, "And I heard that Sirius was making wizard crackers? Blimey, that should be a laugh."

Hugs still manage to throw him off when he isn't the one giving them, but he quickly returns it before she pulls away, not wanting to seem unwelcoming.

"Wotcher," he glances back toward the dining hall and laughs. "I gave him a few small ideas, but it was mostly his work. I'm looking forward to seeing how it goes over dinner."

"'A few small ideas'?" she repeats, raising an eyebrow at him and smirking, "You're really still just a teenager at heart, aren't you, Remus?"
