Unit 6 - Where in the Hotel gains access to a pool table. No need for a bar.

[namedforcat]

[Early one evening, if one happens to walk through the hotel lobby, they may notice something that hadn't been there when they had left through those doors.

A pool table.

Thanks to that odd offer of the powers that be to give them back something from home, Gaignun (somewhat jokingly) asked for the pool table from his office, and got it much to his surprise. It's a well loved pool table, well made with a few nicks and scratches in the wood work that speaks to the fact that it actually got used.

So there it sits, in the side of the hotel lobby, fully decked out with a sign posted saying "Free to play, just take good care of it."

It's owner, a face familiar to mosmt is right now just happily noodling around on it, making random shots. Feel free to join him, he's always up for a game.]


[[ooc: So the hotel now has a pool table, which is free for anyone to use. It's now a fixture there until he finds somewhere else to put it so feel free to appropriate it for other threads and what not.]]

*Just coming in from work-well, he recognizes that pool table, if barely.*

Is that what you got back from home?

*So, Gaignun, did you manage to notice Allen before he spoke up?*

[namedforcat]

[He'll never admit it, but Allen totally snuck up on him.]

Ah, Allen. Yes, it's the one from my office. I'd know it anywhere.

[want_a_vacation]

*Sob, he wasn't even trying.*

I guess this saves the trouble of finding somewhere with a pool table if you want to play.

[monohoshizao]

[Kojiro doesn't always lurk in the lobby.

But when he does, he take a good look at every corner. And this pool table? He have... around little to no idea about it.

I am samurai and what is this.]

[namedforcat]

[Better then being 12 hey Assassin?]

Ah, fancy meeting you here. [He still remembers you.] So, what do you think? Lovely isn't it? [He's so proud of this pool table.]

[monohoshizao]

Ah, greetings to you, Sir Gaignun. [Staaaaaaaare.] If only I am capable of saying such thing. [SO STONER.]

[tolettheworldbe]

[As odd as this place has been so far, Snake could use a moment of relaxation. It hadn't been his first time playing pool (headcanon), after all.]

You any good?

[namedforcat]

Me? [He turns to Snake and smiles. Gaignun Kukai never turns down a challenger] I'd like to consider myself so. Would you like to play and see for yourself?

[Warning, he's good. (his actual skill level is headcanon buuuut...you see it in his office in cut scenes so...)

[tolettheworldbe]

Not exactly a professional myself, but I'll take a crack at it.

[Snake will be grabbing one of the pool sticks and twisting some cue chalk on the tip of it.]

[This, much like cars and phones and a hundred other things here in Prospero, is something Rapunzel has never seen before. And she's very curious. Wanders closer, tilting her head a little as she watches him, her hair trailing along behind her]

[namedforcat]

[After one last shot, he turns to his now found watcher.] Hello there Miss, is there something I can help you with?

[sawthelight]

Oh! [smiles brightly] I was just wondering what that is. I've never seen anything like it before, but that's not unusual for this place, it seems.

[technologic]

[April will just watch him for a while with a slight tilt of her head.] ... What's that?

[namedforcat]

This? It's a game called 'pool'. Did you want to learn how to play? It's really rather fun once you get into it.

[technologic]

Um, sure, okay. [So she'll just be walking over to him, still looking at the pool table curiously.]

[crouching_sin]

[And Naoya will be leaning against the table, watching him and mentally calculating the angles just out of boredom.]

[namedforcat]

If you're going to lean there, you may as well have a purpose to it. [Gaignun is just going to hand him a cue]

[crouching_sin]

[He chuckles and rubs the cue chalk on the end.]

Hm. It's a good distraction from programming, in any case.

[And once Gaignun's taken his next shot, Naoya will just line up his own shot and sink one of the balls with ease.]

[Between planning out the garden and future projects, fighting shadows and her relationship with Kaiji, Saori still managed to find time to work on the book she regained. It wasn't just any book, it was her father's unfinished manuscript. She went out to the kitchen to grab something to drink but didn't notice the pool table until her return.]

Oh. This is new. When did this get here?

[namedforcat]

Oh, hello there Saori. [Hey! He's glad to see you littlest sister.] I just got it...from a shadow of all things. [Yes, it's his regain.]

How have you been?

[needsteaplz]

Oh, s-sorry, I didn't see you there for a second, Gaignun. So wow...you got this as your regained item from home, then? That's quite impressive.

Much better, considering the past events. A project I was thinking up got delayed because of it but it's slowly getting back on track now.

April 9th

[Now that the paperwork from the native trial of Ryuunosuke is dying down and the serial killer is politely staying behind bars for the moment, Edgeworth needs a break from this particularly stressful case. It may not be truly over yet, but the circumstances surrounding it have already gotten under his skin at least once -- he can't allow himself to break down again.

As such, Edgeworth's simply practicing knocking the cue ball around an otherwise empty table. It's been a very long time since he's played, after all, and even then it wasn't very much. Not to mention how he always got nitpicked about his ability to form a proper bridge.]

[namedforcat]

[[ooc: *wave*]]

[Gaignun comes down to check on the table from time to time, he's pleased that mostly people are being gentle with it but he's still in the slightly paranoid stages of it.]

Ah, hello there. [Edgeworth is definitely one of those people he doesn't worry about using it so happiness there.]

I didn't know you played.

Keywords trollolol.

*You shouldn't have let the table out of your sight, Nigredo. A couple days after you get it set up, you'll be finding your brother sprawled out on top of it, one foot propped up against the raised edge as he dozes lightly. It's not that the table is particularly comfortable, he just knows it belongs to Nigredo and wants to be a pest. At least his cape is between the hilt of his knife and the table?*

PFFT

[namedforcat]

[Honestly he should have expected this to happen sooner or later. He knew Albedo would figure out that the pool table was his and do something to use it as an annoyance. Stupid brothers.

Still, he has a plan. Speaking softly to the receptionist he gains a very ratty looking broom to go poke Albedo with.]
