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! ]]

Gigas. I see. [ He moves past that, almost tentatively. ]
Mountain climbing is difficult, but I'm sure you're prepared if you have done it before. Will your companion assist you in belaying?
[ He gestures towards the vanillite. ]
no subject
Of course he will. He's always come with me into the mountains. It's a bit like going home. For...ah...both of us.
[She pats her midsection, and the heavy coat.]
Really though, I'm not worried. Ice and I get along very well.
no subject
You're not too warm in that?
no subject
[She peels off a glove and holds a hand in his general direction. And waves and waves of cold just come pouring off it.]
See?
no subject
Ah... is that some sort of enlightened ability?

[She doesn't seem bothered by this at all!]

It is my honor to be a child of unyielding Steel, a true son of Caldera.
[ Nevermind that he still doesn't know who his parents were. ]
no subject
[She doesn't know a lot about Caldera. She's never been.]
You must be a decorated soldier!

I was a Captain, before my unit was disbanded! But I never saw combat. We were a bit of an irregular group, and we were never deployed that wat.

And when we objected to the war on Caldera, we were disbanded. High Command didn't care for that, and that was the punishment. But we all found other jobs, and ended up all over the place. Just like me.
no subject
I see. It was very brave of you all to object to an unjust war. For my part... well, I do not regret what I had to do in battle in the defense of the Union and Caldera, but I always regret any loss of life or battle. Would that all were as understanding as you and yours.
no subject
But! That was years ago now. Best not dwell on the past.
no subject
Well, neither I nor Riolu should probably detain you any further, miss Mei-Ling. With your leave...?
