April 7th - Welcome Party
Welcome Party
Though you've never seen the casino before, it is easy to find today. This is partly attributable to the music spilling from open doors right into the town. The people of Cartesio have made good on their announcement - doubtlessly, there is a party going on here.
Anyone entering will be confronted with a friendly citizen pulling them aside to inform them of their dress rental service. Though it is called 'rental' there is no actual fee to be paid. The townspeople have simply brought a collection of suits and cocktail dresses into the casino foyer and they are offering to lend them out for the occasion. A folding screen to get changed behind is provided as well.
Once you venture deeper into the casino, you'll find yourself in a surprisingly spacious room. Tables that might normally occupy the open space have been pushed to the wall and filled with various buffet foods. Though you might be tempted to spend your whole afternoon trying out the various local specialties, the rhythmic music from the speakers tries to lure you to the dancefloor. A few locals are already swinging their hips to the beat.
Though if you're simply looking for the main highlight of a casino, you won't have to look long either. Across from the buffet, you will find a wide variety of game machines. Pachinko, slot machines.... even a few odd-one-out games that look like they should rather belong in an arcade. Try your luck, try your skill! If you prove successful, an employee is waiting to hand out various fun goods to you.
There are quite a few townspeople in attendance on this party, but there is a silent understanding that you tourists are the VIPs here. Anywhere you go, any game you want to try, the citizens are quick to move aside for you and let you have the maximum amount of fun.

Wouldn't even know the first place to start with them, honestly.
[ glances over at him ] You play them a lot?
no subject
I do, it's not that difficult to pick up if you're not a complete moron.
Watch how I play, and then play against me.
[ Bakugou gestures to the ones that seem a little more arcadesque. ]
You can handle that much, right?
no subject
[ bolin takes his position and watches what bakugou does with the game. ]
no subject
[ Let us saaaay this one is a fighting game because that is definitely fairly arcadeish and something Bakugou's more inclined to play anyway.
He chooses a beginner level, but not for his own benefit. Just so Bolin can pick up on it, and then there is some joystick action as well as button pressing. ]
See? Not so difficult.
Of course I don't expect you to really be able to beat me since you're just startin' out and all.
no subject
no subject
Yeah, it is.
You think you can rise to it?
no subject
[ watching bakugou a bit closer now, trying to get a better idea of how to play the game.
no subject
[ It's a fairly simple set up going on here.
Bakugou's picked like the strongest looking guy ftr because of course he would. The blond starts out with simple moves in the fighting game to more show the other how to play, before graduating to more complex combinations. ]
Let me know when you've had enough time "studyin'" so I can wipe the floor with you.
no subject
OK, I think I got it!
[ he settles in to the machine next to Bakugou's ]
So, what do I do? Just pick a character and we fight against each other?
no subject
Pretty simple, right?
[ The blond's moved it to character select already and chose the same guy. ]
no subject
[ looks over the options and chooses a fighter girl ]
no subject
Any last words before you eat the dust?
[ Selecting a stage now! ]
no subject
[ LET'S GO
bakugou is going to beat bolin so badly here ]
no subject
And we can basically handwave that happening, sorry not sorry Bolin. ]
Nice try, but you still have a long way to go before you can even have a chance to beat me.
[ It was nice playing with someone though. It reminded him a lot of the arcade games he played back home. So he definitely had fun for once in this shitty town. ]
no subject
[ Bolin says, a little upset, but he's smiling because he still had fun. He totally tried to copy those combos Bakugou used before, not realizing that those combos were specific to his character and not Bolin's ]
I wish I could play games like this more, then I'll show you a real challenge!
no subject
Yeah? If this place is still open later on we could always come here again.
[ It kind of brings back some memories, AND he had fun so he'd like that a lot. Judging by the fact that he doesn't sound irritated at the idea it supports the idea too. ]
no subject
[ we're friends now bakugou. no takesbacksies ]
no subject
Cool. Just be ready to get beaten again, loser.
[ He's smirking, again. And yeah there is a little bit of teasing in there, but also because for now it's true!! ]
no subject
No way, I'll totally win next time.
[ he won't. but bolin is a glutton for punishment when it comes to losing at games ]
no subject
I'll remember you said that.
[ It's at this time that he then turns to leave. ]
See you around, block head.
no subject
[ smirking at him and turns back to the game. HE'S GONNA PRACTICE SO HARD ]
