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.

I'm not sure he knows anything about the Porter, Ed.

Probably not. Still that is....new. Dinosaur in the first place let alone one that can talk and is interested in science.

I was actually going to ask you...can you transmute some quartz crystals to green for me? He collects crystals for his time travel project.

[She's not gonna mention that his plan is to go either forward or backward in time and destroy all mammals, mostly because she doubts it could happen.]

[personal profile] braided_icarus 2015-01-01 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
What do you need green quartz for? Oh. I mean, I could try figure it for you. I'll let you know.

[He is just a bit confused and blindsided by the sudden interest in crystals. ]

For Dr. Dinosaur. He collects crystals.

[For his time travel. Though Winry doubts anything Ed transmuted could be used that way.]

[personal profile] braided_icarus 2015-01-02 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
For this...time travel or whatever? I don't see how quartz is going to help with that. Or is this just some hobby of his to collect this stuff? But I suppose I could try. Since you're asking.

[Not for this stranger. Even if Ed might be a little curious. But because it is Winry that asks.]

hands4healing: (Easy smile)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2015-01-02 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
I don't either, but I thought it'd be nice to give him some crystals for Christmas.

[She smiles.]

Thank you, Ed. Whatever you charge, I'll pay it.

[personal profile] braided_icarus 2015-01-02 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, for Christmas. I guess. I'll charge you whatever the materials are once I find some in that case. But we should probably head back so you're not too far when they sort out this bidding stuff. I'll walk you back, come on.

[He bins his plate and any small scraps of food before leading her off.]
hands4healing: (Easy smile)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2015-01-02 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
[After Ed tosses his plate, Winry walks with him back toward the stage. She twists her hands together, but fixes a smile on her face.]

I hope this raises a lot of money!
