WHO: OPEN.
WHERE: De Chima.
WHEN: Saturday, December 13th, 2014.
WHAT: Earlier in the afternoon, there will be base-jumping in elf costumes. Later on is the charity silent date auction and different performances by USA celebrities fundraising for charity this holiday season. OOC information post here.
WARNINGS: None now, will update later. To avoid seeing all the silent auction threads, simply press on the (Hide ## comments) under the header comment for the auction section!

[ BASE JUMPING from TARTARUS TOWER ]

For those imPorts who volunteered to jump from Tartarus Tower, arrivals for fittings into their costumes begins at 2:00 PM sharp. Each costume comes with a name-tag attached, and make-up artists are on hand to help affix elf ears to participants and work on their eye make-up for the ease of the cameras catching all this live.

The jumps will start at 4:00 PM, and after all imPort elves have jumped and successfully reached the ground, they'll join the bus transporting presents and Malik to the De Chima children's hospital to deliver gifts to the children in the cancer ward (and elsewhere). ImPorts will then be transported over to the main facilities for the fundraiser event as a whole, invited to attend the Silent Date Auction as well as listen to any of the various performances occurring over the course of the evening.

[ CHARITY SILENT DATE AUCTION in DE CHIMA ]

Starting at 4:00 PM, the doors to the conference hall made available for the ImPort Charity Silent Date Auction will open. Live music will be provided, along with refreshments and catered hor d'oeuvres, and televisons displaying both the news stories and live coverage of the fundraiser events occurring over the course of the evening. ImPorts will be encouraged to attend any of these performances in person, but will not be required to leave the conference hall unless they wish to do so.

There is lounge seating available, and free wireless throughout the building. Different conference halls are hosting different events in this event center, and the largest productions are happening on a built stage outside. There's a massive lit tree in the central front courtyard of the event center, and many small stands selling hot drinks, good foods, and wares outside by the stage and surrounding streets, all with a portion of proceeds going to various named charities.

Please comment to this log with your own starters! Only the Auction Thread will be set-up under its own sub-thread, for ease of tracking. Auction Threads can be threaded in, but initial comments to those threads should be the bids that a character is placing on someone else (or themselves). Bidding will close OOCly by this time next week (or when a player states bidding is closed on their character - send me a PM to close that thread, or comment to close it on your own). ICly, all bids close at the end of the night.

Huh?

[ Reggie glances over, a little surprised -- mostly out of his own thoughts, which are taking him nowhere fast down the road of Sulk avenue -- but he recognizes Winry pretty easily. She was the one that made arms out of metal and stuff, right? ]

Oh, hey. Yeah, I'm fine -- don't I look it? [ He flashes her a lopsided smirk. ] What about you, Blondie? You here bidding on anyone?
hands4healing: (Curioser and curioser)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2014-12-14 02:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[Winry gives him a look - but if he says he's all right, she's not going to argue. She doesn't know him well enough to pick a fight in a public place.

She points to the tag attached to her dress indicating she's a participant in the silent auction.]

I might bid on someone, but I don't know who. What about you?
mantlepieces: (what release schedule?)

[personal profile] mantlepieces 2014-12-14 02:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He inclines his head back slightly so that his chin juts out, considering her question and glancing at the tag when she displays it. Without even thinking much of it, he shows her tag in response. ]

I dunno -- I've been thinking about it, sure, but there aren't a lot of chicks there to choose from. Don't wanna waste my money.
hands4healing: (Irritated)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2014-12-14 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Winry's eyes narrow - sounds like an insult - but she's not going to start a fight. Not.]

You could bid on the dinosaur, then!

[She did, after all.]
mantlepieces: (sorry if ur offended :/)

[personal profile] mantlepieces 2014-12-14 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[ STAY STRONG, WINRY. Reggie gives her a sideways glance, looking mildly amused. As if he knows them were fighting words. ]

What would I want with a dinosaur? I'm not a masochist. [ Really... ] I guess if I get really desperate there's always you, right?
hands4healing: (Huff!)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2014-12-14 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Dr. Dinosaur is a nice guy! [Lies, all lies. She enjoys antagonizing him, though.] You might enjoy a date with him! It'd probably be more interesting than a date with me.

[Though if you won, Reggie, you'd have to deal with Ed...which could be funny, in Winry's opinion.]
mantlepieces: (well excuse me princess)

[personal profile] mantlepieces 2014-12-14 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
He's also a dinosaur, and I don't got a death wish.

[ He crosses his arms, as if that helps to make his point. ]

I mean, you're probably right, but I'd rather be bored than lose an arm.
hands4healing: (Good surprise)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2014-12-14 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I can replace your arm if it goes missing.

[Said with big blue innocent eyes.]
mantlepieces: (don't you ever say numbers at me)

[personal profile] mantlepieces 2014-12-14 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Reggie stares at her.

And takes a big step backwards to put some distance between them.
]


Neither arm is going missing! I've kept them this long, this isn't going to be the night I have to go all cyborg.
hands4healing: (I have questions)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2014-12-14 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
You never know!

[Still so innocent.]

Things happen.
mantlepieces: (oh no he's hot)

[personal profile] mantlepieces 2014-12-17 12:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Dubiously, but also a bit challenging: ]

What is that, a threat?
hands4healing: (Huff!)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2014-12-18 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
Do I look like someone who'd be threatening you?

[Indignant.]
mantlepieces: (a mean girls classic)

[personal profile] mantlepieces 2014-12-20 06:12 am (UTC)(link)
[ He looks her up and down. ]

Maybe -- you sure sound like one. If it's bids you want, you should try bribing me instead.
hands4healing: (Why do I put up with this?)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2014-12-21 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
Why should I bribe you?
mantlepieces: (upgrading to friend-zone)

[personal profile] mantlepieces 2014-12-31 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Because you don't want a total dud as a date, do you?

[ Clearly a trick question. ]
hands4healing: (Bzuh?)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2015-01-01 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
[Do you know any of her friends, Reggie?]

I'd like to have someone nice.

[Take that as you will.]
mantlepieces: (a mean girls classic)

[personal profile] mantlepieces 2015-01-02 08:41 am (UTC)(link)
[ Not really, no... ]

I'm plenty nice. You just gotta get to know me.

[ That's how it works! ]
hands4healing: (Thinky thoughts)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2015-01-03 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Uh...huh.]

Well, then you can go bid on me, and I'll have a chance to get to know you!

[That's how it works, Reggie.]
mantlepieces: ((... in bed))

[personal profile] mantlepieces 2015-01-03 08:40 am (UTC)(link)
... I'll think about it.

[ Truth is that he doesn't have a whole lot of money, so... ]

If I'm spending money, it's gotta be worth it.
hands4healing: (Evil Laugh)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2015-01-03 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'm worth it.

[You have no idea, Reggie.

...besides, she'd rather go out with anyone than Kimblee.]
mantlepieces: (nice try barbie)

[personal profile] mantlepieces 2015-01-04 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
[ Maybe next time, Winry. You... do intrigue him. ]

Yeah, I definitely want to date a girl who might cut my leg off so she can build me a new one.
hands4healing: (Lecturing Ed)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2015-01-04 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd only cut off your leg if you have enough money to pay for an automail replacement. Besides, you have to be prepared for the rehabilitation and the pain - the rehab lasts about three years, though I know someone who had an arm and a leg replaced and got through his rehabilitation in a year!
mantlepieces: that I don't work on!! (excuse me for having huge flaws)

[personal profile] mantlepieces 2015-01-12 11:59 am (UTC)(link)
[ You're just too much woman for him, Winry. 2Intense, 2Real. ]

As someone with all his body in perfect working order, I'm planning on keeping it that way. [ At least until the next time he gets his ass kicked. ] "Intact" isn't really your type, huh?
hands4healing: (I approve!)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2015-01-13 01:09 am (UTC)(link)
I see a person as a whole, regardless of what might be missing!

[Sorry, Reggie.]
mantlepieces: ((... in bed))

[personal profile] mantlepieces 2015-01-14 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
Uh huh. Just don't get overeager if they aren't missing anything. You might scare people off that way.

[ He smirks uneasily. ]

Not me, but other guys.
