[Midnight Hotel] April catch-all
Characters: Anyone, everyone.
Date: Month of April, 2016.
Location: The Midnight Hotel.
Situation: Catch-all post! Feel free to use this post for anything that happens within the Midnight Hotel during the month of April, using the subject header to label specific rooms or for specific people. See also the OOC note at the bottom.
Warnings/Rating: None thus far.
The last month has seen some new faces, including a young man by the name of Yuri who’s taking over the Hotel’s breakfasts. Thanks to a suggestion by Skulduggery Pleasant, there is now a sheet on the desk for newcomers to write their names and languages—an informal Foreigner census sheet, as it were.
There is also a new feature in the lobby—a birdhouse with a peppermint-fragranced candle on the porch and an owl tucked inside to project the nest. It’s hung from the balcony over the desk, and in fact its presence there has dissolved some tensions among the kedan which had not been readily apparent until they were gone. If anyone asks, the kedan will freely explain that a house-guardian traditionally protects a homestead against nightmares, bad luck and ill-will. Fighting under the eye of a house-guardian is Very Bad Luck, even if fighting in the Hotel wasn’t bad luck already.
The garage is also newly opened, shiny and bright and still smelling of steel and brick from the construction. The Bentley has claimed her rightful place inside it, but be careful about touching her; her owner is possessive. There is a sign-up sheet at the front desk for the four fee-based work-spaces now available there. They’re medium-sized and in cubicles against the wall, with some space underneath for storage and power outlets. Chairs are bring-your-own. There are also storage spaces on the other wall, for those who’d like to lock their things away somewhere more private.
In general, however, the Hotel is running quite smoothly and more and more the kedan are relaxed about being there. Those who are regulars are less likely to call it ‘the Foreigner’s hotel’ and more likely to call it by its name, in passive recognition of its place in the city at large rather than as a representative of the outsiders.
[ooc: The Midnight Hotel’s status page is available here, with the rules at the top and ongoing status at the bottom. PLEASE POST TO THE STATUS PAGE IF YOUR CHARACTER WOULD LIKE A ROOM OR A JOB. Anton will manufacture means of payment until Foreigners are able to properly offer recompense or choose to move out.

"As for what I do? Oh you know, the usual. Coming in the kitchen. Beating up monsters with magic. Travelling all over the world, trying to keep it from dying. Nothing big." Sarcasm alert.
no subject
That's something he could relate with. As well as traveling all over the world. This kid sounded like someone he could like. Especially with that sarcasm.
no subject
"Oh, I know a thing or two. I mean, I really can't count the number of monsters we beat up as we were travelling all over the world." Yeah, brag it up, Genis. "Probably somewhere in the thousands. There were a couple that were pretty tough, like the dragons, but most of them were piece o' cake for me."
no subject
Yes, he's feeding into it on purpose.
"You don't say. I know a few monster slayers myself. Like the Captain."
no subject
Thanks, Yuri, for making this 12 year old feel important.
"So who's this Captain guy you're talking about. Someone from some sort of guard or something?"
no subject
"Not exactly. He used to be a member of a guild that hunted monsters. Now he's the boss of our guild."
Granted he's kinda leaving out a few details, but Genis won't know that.
no subject
"Whoa, so you're part of an organisation that goes out and hunts monsters?" Because of course Genis wouldn't only assume that the organisation must be something similar. "Your Captain must be a pretty good monster killer then."
Somewhere, far away, Rita cringes.
