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.

no subject
Alright, alright. I'm happy for you.
[ A grunt. ] So how much are you going for now?
no subject
Three hundred and fifty dollars.
no subject
Three fifty?
[ His recovery took a moment. If he'd won, he'd planned on using that money for something like the date, but... ]
Someone really wants to show you a good time, huh?
no subject
That's a pretty big jump from twenty-five bucks, though.
no subject
[ A huge jump, really. ] Someone must really want to go on a date with you.
[ And that someone wasn't him, apparently. ]
no subject
If they want to go on a date with me that badly, I'll make it one to remember.
[ He turns away into the crowd, heading off to get himself some food, swagger cocky and content. And because fate hates Kaidan Alenko, Shepard makes it back just in time for the winner's announcements to start, Shepard snagging his elbow before he can go anywhere and steering him away from the edges of the room. ]
Don't ditch me now. [ You know, because he needs backup in case someone really terrible's snagged him. He cranes his neck to look around, trying to catch the reactions on people's faces as the winners are announced in sequence. ]
no subject
[ The protest died on his lips and he tried to wiggle out of his grip and got nowhere, before he realized it wasn't going to do any good, so he let himself get drug along, until they were in the middle of the room.
He scowled. He hadnt seen anyone, but this had probably been one of his worst ideas. Considering he had to still go home with Shepard. ]
You just want someone to brag to about your date, I'm sure.
[ Yep. He was a fucking idiot. ]
no subject
He squinted. Paused. Then turned to Kaidan, brows rising steadily again. He'd recovered most of his sense of humor, being in Heropa instead of a suicide mission, but this threw him off a little. ]
This is what you decided to spend your jump money on?
no subject
Who knew? He could only narrow his eyes back at Shepard with a squint and a frown. ]
I was trying to drive up the price!
[ what else could it be?]
no subject
radial menu optionspossible responses before he finally snorted softly and shook his head, crossing his arms and cocking his hip. ]Is this is a pity date, Major Alenko?
[ It's That Tone. The one that suggested that Shepard was, as Shepard tended to, taking Kaidan's reaction as a challenge. ]
no subject
Now you're putting words in my mouth. I didn't say that.
no subject
If you were just trying to drive the price up, that implies you don't think I'm worth what you paid for.
[ Cue the almost-manic glint in his eye. ]
Well for the records, I'm going to prove you wrong.
no subject
Are you? I think I'm the one who's supposed to take you out on a date.
[ But if he was going to make a big deal out of it, Kaidan wasn't exactly going to do it. His back itched, like he had a sniper there waiting, like he'd just stepped into a trap. ]
When you put in a bid, you have to accept the possibility that you might be paying for someone. I wouldn't shoved down that kind of money for just anybody.
no subject
I'm taking you out. [ If he were someone else, maybe he'd agree with the idea that being up for auction means being up for being taken out, but he is Commander Shepard. Besides, otherwise he'll have been nagging people to bid on him because he wanted to be taken out, which was hardly the case. ]
So you'd better tell me what kind of date you want.
[ Completely breezing over everything else? Yep. Typical Shepard. ]
no subject
Well, this was just going to be embarrassing, now. ]
I'm not exactly picky, Shepard. I haven't thought about prospective dates in a long time. [ A wince. ] Longer than I'd really care to admit. I'll have to give you a raincheck on that.
no subject
[ Shepard's expression was vaguely dissatisfied, and he frowned at Kaidan like he suspected he was being brushed off -- because it definitely felt like it. But pressing harder unless it was the right time was never the way to get far with Kaidan, so he relaxed a little, uncrossing his arms. ]
All right. But don't think I'm going to forget about it.
no subject
[ The problem was that Shepard didn't forget something when he got it in his head. He knew he wouldn't. So the point was to just put up with it and deal. Eventually, he'd give Shepard a date order, of he asked again, but Kaidan wasn't going to bring it up himself. It didn't feel right to do so. Like he was over eager. ]
I'm sure you'll think of something, even if I can't come to with anything fancy. I'm pretty easy to please.
[ Now if only the ground would open and swallow him right now. ]
no subject
All right. [ Shepard seems mollified by the capitulation, at least. ] We'll just have to wait and see.
no subject
[ Neither one of them can really know, after all, but the moment that the conversation lulled, Kaidan rubbed at the back of his neck, awkwardly. ]
Are you, uh, ready to go home? [ 'Head out' he mentally corrected himself, but it was too late. ]
no subject
Yeah, I guess so. [ The particular phrasing seems to escape his notice. ]
