Who: Tequila Sunrise, Cypress, BARiTONES, LiliS, invited CR
Where: Heaven Graduates Visitation Center: Mitsukoshi Ginza
When: post all the trauma aftermath (day 397? 398?)

[ LiliS, BARiTONES, and invited guests are directed to the 9th floor terrace of Mitsukoshi Ginza, which has been decked out in a modestly fancy party. Most notably, though the sun is out, the balcony has a dome-like roofing of vines and leaves, little ambient lights and flowers hanging from above. The balcony's gardens are decorated with a few green-and-claret reflective streamers, and there's lace tablecloth for every table, but other than that, it's rather humble, with naught more than a "CONGRATULATIONS" sign hanging over the graduation door that sits in the far back of the balcony for Sunny and Cypress to leave when they're ready. There's no red carpet, no microphone, and the music that plays is a soft piano melody.

Though the venue is humble, the menu is not—the variety is strong, ranging from Japanese to Mediterranean to American to Italian, and it's all easily restaurant-quality. The menu's strongest point is easily the desserts, both in variety and quality—and LiliS might notice that the menu and flavor profiling tends to skew to their preferences. The food might even taste familiar. ]

Who: Chrysanthemum, LiliS, invited CR
Where:
When: Day 375, morning

[ LiliS and CR are invited to a small graduation party at the karaoke lounge. Well, it's certainly "small" relative to other graduations, but it's a proper party by its own right: the room is spacious, with green and silver reflective streamers and balloons decorating every wall and corner and "CONGRATULATIONS IZANAMI-NO-MIKOTO" hanging just above the karaoke TV.

Anyone can connect their phone to the karaoke TV to load up a song, but at least in the beginning, a classical piano song is playing. Just left of the TV, in the corner of the room, is a grand piano, or at least a piano that's that big; it's hooked up to the speakers to reverberate its chords throughout the room. Helpfully, the keys are also labeled with what note they are—the preloaded songs available on karaoke include vocal and piano duets, as well as piano solos.

As for the food, perhaps uncharacteristic for the graduate is the heavy presence of food that's on the unhealthier side—grills and various meats (though there's plenty of vegetables available to grill as well) are available, along with the makings of okonomiyaki. At the dessert table, there's a variety of cakes big and small, though suspiciously there isn't any chocolate (and interestingly, none of the ingredients available to be grilled are toxic to dogs?).

Behind the piano is a silvery door, ready for Chrysanthemum when he's ready to go through. ]

Who: trauma party
Where: the game tower
When: Day 349, evening

[Today when you enter the game tower, you find yourself on what appears to be a large stage. The curtain lifts, showing you a packed house -- not with a real audience, though. The seats are full of mannequins wearing dramatic 18th century-style clothing.

Your hologram announcer today is a completely new Host, too! A tall and slender man with long dark hair, dressed equally dramatically to the mannequins including a cape and a masquerade mask, gestures broadly at all of you with sweeping theatrics.]

Welcome, our beloved idols and precious audience, to our latest foray into the twisted hearts of men! I, Grimoire of the Dark Sun Anemone, come to open a window to the chill of cruelty, the passion of loyalty, and the bloody battle between the two! Please witness with your whole black souls the beauty of love and despair!

And also, party games!

Faced with a choice between those they adore and those they abhor, our idols must now choose who to "wed", who to "bed", and who to "behead"!

--My goodness, aren't rhymes just lovely?

...Ah, yes! Now, fall into darkness and become your most beautiful, broken selves!

[Anemone pulls an oversized and incredibly stupid lever, and the floor drops out from under you -- you drop into a void, and all goes black.]

A Live...?

Who: Everyone who's watching TV!
Where: Ueno Park
When: Day 345, late night

[ The park
The park
The park is on fire.

Normally one might only notice this if you happen to be nearby Ueno Park, but someone helpful has decided to broadcast the whole thing as a live, so even the rando sitting in their house can see the rampaging blaze overtaking large swathes of the park and surrounding city, though sort of unsuccessfully because apparently the "surrounding city" is largely just demolished buildings. How did that happen?

Fortunately it seems the zoo has been thoroughly evacuated, though the fire hasn't reached there at all in any case. All the animals are in makeshift pens in an empty warehouse on the far side of the park, away from the fire. The park is huge, so in general not all of it is aflame, but a large swathe definitely is.

This live, unsurprisingly, does not give any points to anyone. There is no indication of who may have done this. ]

Where: Game Tower
When: Day 344

[When you step out of the elevator and enter the game tower, you'll find yourself walking right into a giant ball pit with loud, hyperactive music playing overhead as always and everything is flashing bright neon colors everywhere.

Anyway Left is running this game. Surprising, I know.]

HELLOOOOOOOOO~

Man, guys, when am I just gonna STOP getting promotions? All of my co-workers just get so sad seeing me in their offices because they know I belong in greater and better places.

It's too bad for them, huh? Not like they can try and stop me~

WAIT, IT ISN'T ABOUT ME!!!!

It's about you guys.

We gotta let you guys get a chance to win, too.

Who: You and a lot of potatoes
Where: The Game Tower!
When: Day 343, mid-morning

[ Lantana, as usual, closes her book, and now her holographic presence is actually in the center of the room; the rope dividers disappear and you are free to move about the game tower.

Also, any potatoes your unit has in their possession explode into showers of confetti! Exciting! ]

Congratulations to BAD END=DEAD END, sensitIV, LiliS and future is now, the victors of our game today. It seems like you enjoyed yourselves. ...well, I hope AlcheME is enjoying themselves.

I'll see you next time.

[ if someone ATE A POTATO, only the people who ate that potato get that status effect. e.g. if Cardinal Chases Dawn Avanteengarde ate the vampirism potato, they are the only one who gets the vampire status effect. for you potato-eaters, if you want the effect to last longer or be permanent, knock yourselves out.

otherwise, the status effect for each potato left in your unit's possession at the end of the game will apply to at least one person (more if you want)! these status effects will last from 1-3 days. ]

Who: You!
Where: The Game Tower!
When: Day 343, bright and early!

[ When you arrive at the Game Tower, you're automatically dropped into a roped-off section for your unit, marked by color! You also find yourself with a basket of... potatoes?

...Fun potatoes. They're exciting colors and they're all labeled with things like "Animal Ears," "Helium Voice," "Can't Swear," "Compelled Obedience" and "Vampirism."

As usual Lantana brought a book and looks distinctly more serious than this game seems to warrant. ]

I suppose you could call this a game of catharsis.

...or if you must call it by its traditional name, "hot potato."

Who: Everyone!
Where: Ameya-Yokocho
When: Day 336

[ guess what! new amenities!
Not more than a couple minutes from Ueno station is the street market, Ameya-Yokocho. Just like Ueno Park, which is likewise just around the corner, there are shadowy, ghost-like figures here; unlike the ghosts in Ueno Park, these actually staff a few stalls. Not the food stalls, which primarily have (free) confections and festival food, and not the bootleg idol merch stalls, which are full of cheaply made merchandise and what looks like future is now Gadgeteered items, though none of them are functional and all of them are liable to break. At least all the idol merch and "Gadgeteered" bootlegs are cheap—nothing costs more than 50 points here—but sometimes items purchased here might be liable to induce an AlcheME!-potion-like effect on the owner upon purchase, or poof into a bitten-into leaf, scamming you out of your money.

By necessity, ghost staff attends to the henna tattoo tent, where you can get illustrious temporary inks that will last anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, depending on how you take care of it. The service is free!

The other "staffed" shops are likewise staffed by necessity: they are, by and large, tailor-made clothing shops that take your measurements before sending you the clothes in the mail. They aren't ordinary clothing shops, though—clothes that are not of imeeji fashion are available to purchase here. However, they're exorbitantly expensive; every outfit, made of only the best quality materials, costs 10 thousand points each, and they cannot have a copy purchased for a lesser price once one is purchased. This is the black market of idols.

There are also less expensive outfits of similar nature, available at 500 points each—but after a few hours of wear, the clothing dissolves completely, unable to be repaired even by future is now's ability. It's mostly there if you want to dress up for a costume party or something; these outfits are also not tailor-made, and feel cheap in comparison. You get what you pay for, it seems.

Due to its unique (shady) nature, after its grand opening on Day 336, Ameyoko will only available on days that are multiples of 5 (so days that end in either 5 or 0), as well as on festival holidays.

so, idols, who wants to go have some fun? ]

When: Day 326, late morning (after hearts)

[Hello LiliS. Your door is locked and there is a strange man in your kitchen. He's making quite a lot of loud banging noises, and when you come out to see, many of the contents of the cabinets are strewn over the floor or the counters.

The man himself is barefoot in sweatpants and a crop top, which means his tattoo is very apparent.

He's currently paused his chaos in favor of inspecting the coffee maker and muttering to himself.]

Who: Everyone!
Where: The Parking Garage, which you now have.
When: slightly forward dated to Day 314, early morning

[ You may have noticed that at some point this morning any vehicles you may have stored anywhere in the Hotel are no longer there. You may also notice a pin on your phone's map, designating a formerly empty lot north of the Hotel as Giken ECO-Park™.


Welcome to the newest innovation in parking garages, the Dahir Insaat Giken ECO-Park™! The ECO-Park™ is an underground storage solution for all types of automobiles, allowing mass automated storage without taking up large amounts of valuable real estate! In order to park a vehicle, one must use their phone to access the admittance terminal at the front of the aboveground entry bay, which will print a ticket with a number on it. They may then either drive their vehicle into the entry bay or land it on top of the entry bay. The loading platform will then secure the vehicle and pull it underground to place it into the appropriate sized parking spot. Vehicles may be retrieved by scanning the phone used to make the purchase or by inputting the vehicle's number into the admittance terminal.

All vehicles purchased from the points shop will be automagically stored here, and must be retrieved using the phone that purchased them. Any vehicle parked at the hotel (though not in a dorm or dorm upgrade, or anything not at the hotel) will also automagically be stored here, and must be retrieved using the phone of the last individual to have driven it. The ECO-Park™ can be accessed either by walking to it or by going into the former hotel parking garage, where there is a flat escalator hallway that takes you off into the distance and somehow drops you off at the ECO-Park™ entrance.



When you approach the ECO-Park™, you'll likely find a group of people gathered at the entrance, grouped in front of a certain maintenance fairy holding one of D.Va's hands in both of her own holographic hands. This is playing from...somewhere, and now that you think about it, wasn't the Christmas song playing in the hotel lobby different somehow...? ]

This program thanks you once again for venturing into the depths of the Winter Wonderland and defeating the Damned Queen of Yuletide, Who's Name Has Not Been Uttered In These Halls For Aeons and her vast army of Holly Jolly Menaces, freeing Tokyo-F from her deathly hymn once and for all and restoring neutrality to the city! This program must now return to the Madame Administrator to file a full report. This program is sorry for the inconvenience that is this paltry reward for such a daunting task, but please know that you will all always be considered our most valued associates.

[Wifi is out at the gym, uniform on and basketball in hand. HE IS SERIOUS TODAY.]

I've had a bunch of you guys talk about wanting to learn and play basketball. Well, this is your chance, I'm just gonna take care of you guys all in one go. I'll do a quick lesson on how to play for anyone that shows up in the next hour. Just so you know, guns are normally not involved so don't even think about it.

I'll make it a live, too! I'm not gonna promote drunk basketball so instead this'll be a betting live. I will bet you a point that I'll beat you. It's only a point because I will absolutely beat every single one of you. Every memory of my life is basketball, you'll have .0001% chance of you winning against me.

But I'll also bet you 50 points to see if you can impress me or if you can beat your first opponent.

Don't forget to stretch your muscles and hydrate! Give it your all, you only have a 0% of winning if you give up!!
