The Valentine's Date Auction [OPEN]

WHO: Eveyone who signed up + the school in general
WHAT: this thing
WHERE: Right here, in the Institute
WHEN: Saturday evening, the 14th
WARNING(S): Given the nature of the event, I almost expect it, but remember the rules regarding that kind of thing. Take it off the log if it goes there.



Never let it be said that Emma didn't know her stuff. Not content with the paltry and tired and cliche decorations Kurt and subjected the students to at previous events, she had completely taken over, using a combination of her wealth and mutant powers to create a sort of bohemian love palace for the students. Dance floor, tables, the finest foods. This was not a party the likes of which they had seen before... unless they were part of the older crowd, and had witnessed Emma at work before.

Was she good or was she good? On the stage, Emma stood proudly, taking each of the auctionable singles to the stage, one by one, and selling off just a fraction of their free time to the highest bidder. And the fact that it was all for charity left the whole situation comfortably guilt and obligation free.

Of course, as the host, she was more focused on the party and its guests as a whole than any particular individuals... Attempts at sneaking off probably would go unremarked upon. Probably.

[[ OOC: Each auction will receive its own top level, as well as a top level for general mingling. PLEASE CONSULT THE PLOTTING POST BEFORE BIDDING ]]

"Isn't dying ceasing to live?" she asked.

If you're just a copy, you're not really alive in the first place. -Kagerou... doesn't stop to think how cruel that sounds.-

"Wasn't a hand alive when it was part of a person?" She asked. Okay, that example brings up all sorts of disgusting mental imagery. Thanks, clone girl.

A hand's not a copy!

Also, six thousand and one! -See, Palutena? She listened. A little bit.-

"Seventy thousand!" She meant to say seven. Oh well.

"WEll... no, but you do have two of them. And some people have more than two."
soundandfurry: (you're livin' in your own private Idaho)

A hand also isn't alive on its own, its only because its attached to you. If you lose a hand, it's not as if the hand loses anything. YOU are the one losing a hand, not the hand losing its life. That's dumb!

Her chin started to quiver slightly. She didn't know how to respond. The clones were not overly bright.
soundandfurry: (got my head checked by a jumbo jet)

It definitely sounds like I need to teach this Eli person some things...

She nodded, cheering up again. "Eli needs to learn lots of things. That is why her parents send her to school!"

But that comes later!

ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND!

... That is a number, right?
eileaneathompson: (Go Forth)

[personal profile] eileaneathompson 2015-02-17 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
"Two hundred thousand!" she said happily, glad to be "playing" again.
soundandfurry: (each morning I get up I die a little)

What?!

... Does that mean I lose?!
