Action - come and win some baby ghostie eggs

[somnambulatory]

[During the Soulfasting celebration, Jinxie can be found in Ninetales Vale wearing a hoodie designed to look like a Drifloon, sitting behind a table set up with what looks somewhat like a shell game - three little ceramic decorations designed to look like a Duskull, a Gastly, and a Misdreavus covering up whatever hides underneath.  There's a sign in front that reads 'A WINNER EVERY TIME' with a list of prizes below:

1st Prize: Ghost Pokemon egg of your choice
2nd Prize: Magic charm from the Kurain School
3rd Prize: Pokemon food - special Ghost type blend]

Step up and try your luck!

((OOC: I'm basically just going to randomize for everyone who comes up to play.  It won't exactly be a shell game so much as 'pick one and get the prize written on the piece of paper hidden underneath' for ease of threading.))

[Eggs left: Drifloon, Misdreavus - pending 1 win for Melaka
Charms given: Confusion x1, 1 for Elly, 1 for Quinn]

This looks difficult.

[ Haruka came to Ninetales Vale to buy a mask. She still hasn't picked a design she likes, but why not bother Jinxie? The other girl's cute. ]

How's business, Skitty?

[somnambulatory]

It's not hard at all. You just pick one of the ghost faces, and win the prize underneath. We're hoping to find good homes for some new baby Ghost types.

[Jinxie smiles back at Haruka, though she does falter and flush a bit at the 'Skitty' comment.]

U-um... you're actually my first customer.

[makeitquick]

[ Melaka is wearing a ... Golurk mask? It's seen better days though, it's clearly been used more than one year but preserved for subsequent soulfastings. It might have been decent quality to begin with, but it's only on the lesser side of okay now. It only really covers the upper half of her face too. But she's here to feel out the holiday and ge the prizes. But: ]

Oh wow, those are nice ones.

[ She didn't even hear Jinxie's advert (clearly) just... saw the sign/ ]

[somnambulatory]

Do you want to give it a try, Melaka?

[biteoutofcrime]

[Oh...fine. He can go out of his way to be supportive, for once. He knows how important Soulfasting is to the girls.]

A winner every time, huh? You can't turn much of a profit like that, you know.

[He steps up to the table, taking one hand out of his pocket to adjust the Duskull mask over the side of his head.]

[somnambulatory]

I thought more people would come this way.

[inthenameofthemoon]

[ This little moon rabbit is all dressed up in an adorable Shiny Sylveon Onesie and has opted to just roaming around Ninetales Vale to take in the scenery. She's had quite enough excitement for the past two weeks and is quite content to just having a nice stroll.

But, it's when she passes by the booth that she decides to stop and look at the different prizes.

She did need food for her newly acquired ghost pokemon, and she did like getting things for free... ]

Excuse me, I'd like to try!

[somnambulatory]

Okay!

[Jinxie smiles, gesturing to the ghost heads.]

Pick a ghost, any ghost.

[Her showmanship isn't great, but she's trying.]

[rainsrespite]

[Yuuna meanders by the games table and does a bit of a doubletake when she sees it's Jinxie managing it. She doesn't seem like the sort who should be in charge of a game like this...but then hey, this is her neighborhood, so maybe things are different.

And if nothing else, the young woman is pretty alright. So, meandering over, the Ranger grins and sets down a small donation. She's dressed up in a purple and green jumper, with a grinning Spiritomb face emblazoned on the front, and has one of the actual Pokemon floating around nearby, it's Keystone resting in the actual hood of the hoodie.]

Heya Jinxie. How's the game going?

[somnambulatory]

Good. Someone already won a Snorunt.

[Jinxie doesn't seem put off by the Spiritomb at all, either. She is truly a resident of Ninetales Vale.]

[worldmother]

[Elly walks past, then does a double take and returns to the table.]

What's this?

[somnambulatory]

It's a game. We're giving Ghost Pokemon eggs away to good homes.

[demon_of_sforzando]

Sure, I'll give it a try. Let's see....

[After a moment, he picks the Misdreavus mask. If only because Scherzo would pick it if she were there.]

[somnambulatory]

[Scherzo has good taste, because underneath the Misdreavus mask is the Pokemon egg prize.]

Congratulations. Which egg do you want?

[Frillish, Drifloon, Rotom, Phantump, Shuppet, Gastly, Misdreavus are what's left, according to Jinxie's list.]

[tagteams]

[Someone hasn't seen her little ghost friend in a long time so Quinn is wandering around Ninetales Vale here and there. With a parade of her own ghost types following along as this is their celebration after all. Goryo, Ivory, Agape, and Warden are all following behind Quinn plus a shy Yamask hiding in her cloak.]

Hi Jinxie.

[somnambulatory]

Hi Quinn. Do you want to try the game?

[Jinxie peers at her entourage.]

You sure do have a lot of ghosts already.

[evokedorpheus]

[Minato's walking up with a Ralts in tow, flashing Jinxie a smile.]

Hey. What've we got going on here?

[somnambulatory]

Hi Minato. I set up a game to give away some Ghost Pokemon eggs.

[missleadingquestions]

Well, look who's doing an awesome job?

[Having approached almost silently, Maya rests her chin on Jinxie's shoulder. She's been watching business go on all day, and is glad to see things aren't going terribly.]

[somnambulatory]

Thanks, Maya. It's going pretty well.

[unbalancedlove]

[A certain young girl dressed in a surprisingly frilly Jellicent costume approaches the booth with curiosity followed by a Deerling with a matching costume. She gazes at the prizes with interest, specially the last one.]

Miss, can other types eat the Ghost type blend?

[It sounds like something worth trying once!]

[somnambulatory]

Uh huh. It's just food that Ghost types especially like.

[novegetables]

Oh wow, prizes? [Goten's wearing what looks to be some sort of hand crafted, Duskull costume, it doesn't look the best, but it's not bad either. There's a Haunter floating next to him, and she's looking over the little decorations. Oh they're so cute!] How do you play?

[somnambulatory]

[Awww, how cute. Jinxie smiles.]

It's easy! All you do is pick up one of these cute ghost masks, and you win whatever's written on the paper under it.

[mid]

[ As soon as she sees the sign advertising the prizes, Katarina's curiosity gets the better of her. She's dressed in her usual ranger garb, and while Soulfasting is secretly one of her favorite celebrations, costumes aren't her forte.

Her aim is, of course, the Ghost Pokemon egg. She approaches the table like a woman on a mission, gesturing to the three ceramic decorations. ]

Do I need to pay anything to play?

[somnambulatory]

You can make a small donation to the Kurain School if you want, but it's free to play.

[celebrity_commentator]

[Rise, Soulfasting mask and accoutrements in hand (well, shopping bag) stops by on her way out of the neighborhood.]

Hey, Jinxie! You're running a game?

[somnambulatory]

Uh huh. All you have to do is pick one of these masks, and you win whatever's under it.

[toxicrevenger]

[Pamela's benefited from being able to bring her Pokemon to the Kurain school so she stops by. She's got her Pumpkaboo floating along beside her, who's cheerfully twirling all the while. Mercifully she seems to be getting the idea that casting Confusion in all directions is not appreciated.]

This looks interesting. How do I play?

[somnambulatory]

Just pick one of the masks and win what's underneath.
