April 7th - Welcome Party

[cartesio]

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.

I think there's some sort of video that plays while the ball's falling down, and repeated wins let you watch more? I could be wrong, though. It's apparently pretty popular overseas, but I haven't played that style of pachinko myself.

Huh. [ That does sound like fun. ] Man, they should have just brought one those here.

[ Also dude you look old... Going to squint at the guy for a bit before... ]

Hey, how do you get your hair up like that?

[protectandselfserve]

I'm a bit disappointed that they don't have any here. I've always wanted to try one of those out.

[At the question, though, he laughs.]

I think the question I've been asking is how don't I get my hair up like that! Really, you should see it before I try and tame it in the mornings.

[linearcrash]

Hey, maybe they'll take requests?

[ Whoa. ]

You mean it can get even crazier? [ Is that even possible? ]

[protectandselfserve]

It's worth asking!

And, well, yes. I'd say that some mornings I look like I was struck by lightning, haha!

[linearcrash]

It already kind of looks like that, yo.

[ Not that Nine can really look from all the spikes in the back of his hair. ]

...

Surely it's not that bad...

[linearcrash]

Who says anything about it being a bad thing? It's just surprising, yo. I mean, you're really, really old. And old people don't normally rock that kind of style.

[ Is there a compliment in there? We don't know ]
