Thespians for Sale! (Date Auction)
Who: The Union Divine Theater, volunteers, and YOU(r money)!
What: Date Auction/Raffle for fundraising
When: September 3
Where: Union Divine Theater
Warnings: Excessive fabulousness.
Almost there! It had taken them the better part of a year, but the Union Divine Theater had nearly been restored in the aftermath of Kyurem’s attack. As a historic monument, they had to be careful to only use period-appropriate building materials, and employed only the finest craftsmen. But now they’re nearly ready for business again.
So of course, they’re holding a fundraiser. And, of course, it’s a date auction.
Not just any date auction, though! The courtyard has been taken up with several small tables, behind which each thespian being raffled off is seated. Interested bidders are welcome to chat with the “prizes” or to check out the long line of tables across from the auction decorated with several super-classy glass jars. Each jar has a person’s name on it, and a small watercolor picture of the person in question next to it. These individuals have volunteered (or been volunteered) to serve as extra dates - just buy a ticket from the Slowking and the Wooper at the end of the tables and you can enter to win!
Small placards scattered throughout the event specify that all “prizes” must be 18 years or over, and that all dates must be family-friendly. All “prizes” also have the option, if they desire, of specifying which gender of date they prefer. Additionally, while the humans mingle, their Pokémon are encouraged to chat with the Nidoking who’s waiting just inside the theater. He’s giving tours of the stage area complete with the option of putting on a production! Be sure to tell your Trainers to buy tickets to the Theater’s next show!
The event will run all day, with bidding starting at $25 (Union currency). Are you ready to make a new friend??
[[ OOC: The date raffle and auction is live! Please follow the instructions beneath each top-level below. Each character being auctioned will have their own auction thread, where all bids go for that character - threadjacking is encouraged, and a mingle thread where people can talk to that character. Each character being raffled has their own section for people to note they’ve put in a ticket, but these can all be replies to the top-level. Each character being raffled also has their own spot for mingling. OOCly, results for the auctions and raffles will be announced in about a week.
Pokémon interested in performing on stage can leave top-level comments in the section at the bottom of the post. Their scene partner tags in with a result from the RP Scenario Generator: this is the scene the two Pokémon are encouraged to act out. An assortment of costume pieces, sets, and props are available. Break a leg! ]]

[ Booms loken, looking about as happy as he ever does in a social situation. Which is not too bad, now that he sees someone that he owes. ]
no subject
Not bad, actually. I'm not really used to getting this much attention. But I'm getting used to it... and I'm actually having fun.
How about you?
no subject
[ Which means he's more moving around and talking to people, trying to ascertain things to talk about based on what he knows of them from previous encounters. It can make for some very perfunctory interactions,but at least he's trying ]
no subject
Well, this is a good place for it. A lot of people around here, and so far they've all been friendly. And heck, if you find someone here you enjoy socializing with enough, might as well throw in for a raffle ticket for 'em. Never know, might win and get a date.
[Admittedly, he's been considering it. He's just not sure who he would put a ticket in for yet...]
no subject
[ He looks very stern. ]
no subject
[He sees that sternness, but doesn't share in it, keeping himself more relaxed and casual.]
Though I admit, I didn't sign myself up for this. And I don't have a lot of money myself, so... as it happens, this is a good way for me to chip in too.
no subject
[ Loken suspects a pokemon did it. They have a tendency towards mild mischief of that nature. ]
no subject
[Still, for his tone, he's not really bothered much. As far as pranks go, this one might turn out just fine.]
no subject
[ Jotaro peeks up at the trainer, stepping from behind Garviel's leg. }
Well, I know my companions might be known to do such a thing. [ Jotaro folds its paws in front of it's chest. Well, except maybe this one. ]
no subject
[Which, if it worked out? It might.]
I just know for sure it wasn't Andy or Tabitha. That's all I'm sure of.
no subject
[ He gestures to the other people being auctioned. ]
Does anyone catch your eye?
no subject
Well... I mean. I'm not sure? All the women here are... well, attractive, but... I dunno? Maybe I should go... talk to them and see.
[And he was not going to mention easily that he thought Gwendolyn or Rose were especially cute. That would wait until after he decided which raffles to enter.]
no subject
[ Garviel is of course too dedicated to duty to really think of women himself, but he'll certainly push other people in various directions if he feels like it ]
no subject
She's pretty much exactly what I think of when I hear the term "Valkyrie." It's almost like that was the role she was born to play.
no subject
no subject
I'll... think about it.
no subject
no subject
[Though, he did think that winning a date with Gwendolyn would be... kind of nice. So... heck. Why not?]
...Thanks, by the way.
