7 ♣ [TEXT/ACTION FOR GOLDENROD CITY]
Feb. 28th, 2015 09:46 pm[TEXT]
[Sometime during the day, a short text pops up on the network.]
Tell me about something you miss from home. Something you can't get here.
[Someone isn't having a good day.]
[ACTION]
[Things have been fairly rough for Celes, lately, but she's finally managed to get herself out of the house. It's more for necessity rather than out of desire, however; a horrible discovery early this morning showed her that it was simply impossible for her to remain idle...especially in the face of such a frustrating threat. What was this clearly catastrophe occurrence?
She discovered she's running dangerously low on eyeliner.
So that's why, if you happen to be in the make-up section of the Goldenrod Department store, you'll spot her and her Gothitelle, Victoria, standing in front of a display featuring one of the fancier brands. Celes' face isn't showing much emotion, as usual, but her movements are jerky and her posture is tight. She's frustrated; the day isn't getting any better. She's gone through three testers and none of them are quite right; the fourth one isn't showing promise, either.]
I simply cannot believe they ran out of my favourite brand...none of these ones are quite the same.
[Narrowing her eyes at the thin black line she's drawn on her hand, Celes rubs at it with her finger, pursing her lips as it smudges into her skin.]
Honestly...is this what passes for quality in this place? Pathetic...that saleswoman should be fired.
[Turning around, she lightly tosses the tester back towards the display; it lands neatly back into place with a soft clacking sound, guided into position by her Gothitelle. Looking around the make-up area, Celes rolls her eyes.]
Am I really expected to travel all the way to Celadon City to find it? What nonsense.
[...although...she has heard excellent things about the fashion and shopping in Celadon. Would it be able to compare to Tokyo, though? Hmm...
...well. It's not like she's going to go today, anyway. The thought is...tempting, however; it would likely do her good to get away from this city for a little while.
Food for thought, anyway.
...]
Come, Victoria. Perhaps I'll buy a new perfume.
[OOC: Celes will be wandering throughout the Department Store all day, so you can run into her wherever you like - it doesn't just have to be the make-up section!]

( [ANONYMOUS TEXT - SPOILERS FOR DANGAN RONPA] )
[ACTION - DANGAN HOUSE]
[Should you happen to enter the dining area of the Dangan House today, you might notice that there appears to be a new resident sitting at the dining table. It's alright if you don't notice her, however; she's used to it, and not really in the mood for an interrogation, anyway.
She's sitting at the table with one leg curled up on the seat and one dangling towards the ground, her body hunched over the table. One hand is cradling her head, while the other is wrapped around a bottle of cold green tea. Sitting near the bottle are numerous plastic packets; some containing what appear to be gyoza, and some empty. Her Gear is similarly resting next to the packets, occasionally beeping.
Celes isn't moving from her current position and doesn't seem to have any real inclination to do so. Behind her, her Gothitelle is standing silently, watching everything with her usual unblinking stare. Despite her position, however, by far the most striking thing about her is the fact that she's not wearing her usual clothes; instead of her intricate gothic lolita costume and hair extensions, she's...well. Practically naked. She's not wearing those extensions, and her only clothing is a pair of black track pants and a mustard-yellow t-shirt bearing the slogan '★ I GOT LUCKY AT THE GOLDENROD GAME CORNER! ★' on the back. Her hand is hiding her face, but...it's probably not hard to guess the status of her make-up. The only remaining piece of her previous appearance are her black nails, still perfectly manicured.
...or, well. There are admittedly a few chips.
The house seems oddly quiet today...but if you happen to be around, perhaps she'll deign to talk to you.]
[[OOC: If you'd like a visual reference for how Celes looks at the moment, this is pretty much it! Also, this post will likely end up as a spoilerbomb for Dangan Ronpa, so!]]

5 ♣ [VIDEO/ACTION FOR GOLDENROD CITY]
Jun. 24th, 2014 08:29 amVIDEO
[Celes is sitting on a couch, when the video opens, her Eevee sitting on her knee and flicking her ears around. Those of you who are familiar with it might recognize it as the Dangan House - apparently someone made the questionable life decision of letting Celes inside, or she just...found a way in.
...lovely.]
I have a question for those of you who have raised one of these creatures.
[The 'creature' in question is her Eevee, who doesn't seem to have any problem with being called a 'creature'. Hey, she's heard worse from her trainer.]
I feel it is high time she evolved, and I have been looking at all my options...what I would most like, however, is the chance to hear some first-hand accounts from those of you who have raised any of the evolutions.
Such a thing would be most appreciated.
[Linking her fingers in her trademark pose, Celes tilts her head and smiles prettily at the camera.]
Thank you for listening.
ACTION
[Having spent a fair bit of time away from Goldenrod, Celes is dedicating the day to perusing all of the shops and boutiques the city has to offer, her Ninetales following dutifully after her. Being on the road is such a tiresome thing, after all, and it's nice to just...indulge, in what she's used to. She's still not sure if those stupid badges are worth the trouble it takes to get them, but...at least the, ah...monetary compensation is rather nice.
She's in an exceptionally good mood, so if you happen to spot her wandering, feel free to have a chat with her (even you, Hagakure!
...alright, maybe not you, Hagakure.)]

4 ♣ [VIDEO/ACTION FOR ECRUTEAK CITY]
Feb. 13th, 2014 07:01 pm[It's a beautiful sunny day in Ecruteak City - unfortunately, Celes' latest broadcast isn't allowing you to see much of it. Which makes sense, really...why focus on those horrid old buildings when you could be focusing on her?
She's seated side-saddle on the back of a Ponyta, legs crossed neatly at the knee, hands resting in her lap. Said Ponyta is on the bigger side, wearing a lacey black bridle featuring matching reins, and standing completely still. The flames from his mane and body occasionally (and harmlessly) flick across Celes' legs and lap, making her appear as if she's on fire. Whether the effect is purposeful or not remains to be seen, however.
Smiling her usual smile, Celes looks right into the camera, eyes wide and curious. It's currently positioned perfectly at her head height - how, do you ask? None of your business. Anyway...]
Have any of you heard of the Prisoner's dilemma? It's a thought experiment based on game theory.
Allow me to explain.
[Continuing to smile, Celes raises her hands and links them together.]
Let's take a hypothetical scenario. A and B have committed a serious crime together, and have been captured by the police. They're sent to separate cells for questioning - completely cut off from each other. Currently, the police have enough evidence to imprison them for 2 years.
A police officer visits each of them in turn, and offers them a deal. Should either of them betray the other and confess the full details of the crime, he will reduce the sentence of the betrayer to 1 year. The other criminal, however, will take the full brunt of the law and have to serve 15 years. So if A betrays B and tells the police officer everything, he'll get 1 year in prison, while B will get 15 years. The same works in reverse, should B do the betraying.
Should both A and B try to take the route of confession for the 1 year sentence, they will each serve 10 years. Not quite as much as 15, but...hardly a desirable outcome, don't you think? Ah, but that's the price of betrayal...
[Giggling softly, Celes places one hand against her mouth, smile widening.]
So let's play a game. Place yourself in the shoes of one of the prisoners. How would you act in this situation? What choice would you make? Would you confess your crimes, in an attempt to ensure you avoid 15 years in prison...
[Reaching out into her Ponyta's mane, Celes watches the flames envelop her hand and wrist, the light reflecting in her eyes.]
...or remain silent and place your future in the hands of your partner, who may be more than happy to watch you burn?
[For a moment, Celes' attention is locked on the fire, her expression flickering ever-so-slighty. But if there was something about it that bothered her, it's not evident, and she soon returns her hand to her lap and her focus to the camera.]
I look forward to your thoughts.
[Smiling once more, Celes nods slightly and the feed immediately disconnects.]

3 ♣ [ACTION FOR THE DANGAN HOUSE]
Jan. 18th, 2014 11:11 am[It's a rather cloudy day, and Celes can't say she has a real problem with it - it matches her mood rather nicely, after all. She's standing outside the Dangan House, arms crossed, watching her newly evolved Gothitelle weep. Victoria the Gothitelle has been at it for a good five minutes, and Celes' already thin patience is drawing even thinner. Finally, she rolls her eyes and addresses her miserable Pokemon, her tone icy.]
Do stop behaving like a child, Victoria, it's highly unbecoming.
[Surprisingly, the Gothitelle doesn't stop crying; if anything, she sobs harder, her spindly arms wrapped around her shoulders as she tries to control herself. A look of repulsion comes across Celes' face, and she turns away from her Pokemon, idly flicking open her PokeGear and activating her Pokedex.]
Had I known you were going to act like this, I would have never evolved you...is this some quirk of your current form? Constant crying? I-
[Celes suddenly freezes, her eyes wide as she stares at the text in Gothitelle's Pokedex data. When Victoria notices how she's looking at it, she quickly gets her attention, and the pair stare at each other for a minute as the Gothitelle frantically informs her about what she's seen. Celes' hand begins to tremble.
Suddenly, her calm demeanor crumbles away, replaced with a mood and expression some of her classmates might find rather familiar.]
Shut up! Shut the fuck up!
[Her voice has risen sharply, and Celes obviously doesn't care who hears her screaming. Her hand tightens violently around her PokeGear, and Victoria continues to weep, tears pouring out of her eyes. Her trainer starts to tremble.]

Oct. 29th, 2013 08:47 pmA: THE DAY - HALL OF TAPESTRIES
Oh, I quite like that....
[Hello there! If you're lucky enough to be wanderingterrified through this charming place, it may come as some comfort to you to stumble upon....well, what looks like either one of the maids or a potential inhabitant, really. She's strolling down the hall, admiring each tapestry that she passes, occasionally looking up to the ceiling and admiring the architecture.]
What a wonderful place...
[It seems that the insidious nature of the situation is completely lost on Celes - she apparently couldn't be happier. At times she'll pause in front of a tapestry, examining it as one would a piece of art, before continuing on.]
Tapestries...I simply must obtain some....
[Feel free to speak to her; perhaps her mood is infectious!
....
well hopefully not]

[VIDEO]
It has come to my attention that I require more Pokemon.
[Good morning, feed! Today, you get treated to the sight of the beautiful (obviously!) Celestia Ludenberg, sitting inside...somewhere at a fairly non-descript table with a cup of tea in her hand. The cup itself is rather elegant, and she's holding the matching saucer daintily below it. The angle of the camera is almost arty, as if she'd spent time positioning it perfectly. Not that she has, of course! Such things are unnecessary for someone as perfect as her.
Looking off to the side, lost in thought, she takes a sip of her tea and continues.]
Three is simply too small a number if I am to become a successful trainer - for it's true that the best trainers make quite a lot of money, no?
[Ulterior motive? What ulterior motive? How dare you.]
Hence, I have decided to post my query to this 'network', as I imagine there are those of you out there who actually know what they're talking about. Well, at least....that is my hope. I am prepared for disappointment. What species of Pokemon would you recommend to build a powerful team?
[Smiling brightly, Celestia links her fingers and tilts her head to the side.]
Please do not suggest anything stupid or ugly, although I understand such things are inevitable with some of you. Thank you very much!
[ACTION]
[Celes has taken to exploring the base again, still in her regular clothes. She has no intention of wearing the repulsive Rocket uniform unless someone physically forces her into it (although she....really hopes it doesn't come to that....), and isn't bothered by the fact that she clearly stands out like....well, like herself.
At her side, her Vulpix is padding along silently, occasionally looking up at her trainer, who appears lost in thought.
She's ready to reply to any messages she receives, but for now is more interested in poking around the base. Like her Vulpix, she's capable of moving rather silently. Entering one particularly interesting door, she-]
Oh! Please forgive me - I didn't realise anyone was in here.

[Having grown tired of the sparseness of her room, Celes has taken it upon herself to investigate her new surroundings - in her regular clothes, of course. She's walking slowly, peering around the halls and taking in everything she can, eyes flicking back and forth suspiciously, as if expecting something to pop out at any moment.]
How mysterious....
[Behind her, a Gothita and Vulpix are pattering along, doing their best to keep up with their new trainer, despite the fact that she's ignoring them. The Gothita appears to be doing worse than the Vulpix (having tiny legs will do that to you), but she struggles furiously on, watching her trainer with wide, reverent eyes.
Feel free to interrupt Celes' wanderings if you happen to spot her - she'd be grateful for the information. Maybe.]
TEXT/ACTION
[It's later in the day, and Celes has managed to find her way out of the Rocket Base and into the heart of Goldenrod City. She's currently seated at a table outside a rather quaint cafe, sipping from a cup and idly flicking through the feed on her Pokegear. Seated opposite her, sharing the chair, are her two Pokemon, eagerly watching both their trainer and the small cake sitting in front of her. Celes hasn't touched her food, but is onto her second pot of tea, murmuring to herself.]
...it's perfect....just how I like it.
[Her appetite hasn't really kicked in since she awoke in her room in the Rocket base, so with a slightly repulsed look she roughly cuts the cake into two pieces with her fork and pushes the plate over to her Pokemon. They fall on it in grateful desperation. However-
Do try to have some decorum.
[Celes' words are calm and even, but her Pokemon immediately freeze and start to eat slowly, any traces of their prior frantic feeding completely gone. Her Gothita even attempts to use the fork.
Having dealt with her Pokemon, Celes goes right back to ignoring them and instead focuses on her Pokegear, placing her teacup neatly back in the saucer.
She's spent most of her day gathering what information she can from the citizens around Goldenrod and her fellow Rocket members - now it's time to see if this 'feed' works as well as she's heard.]
I have a few questions that I would appreciate answers to, should any of you be able to help.
1) Are any of you familiar with a place called Hope's Peak Academy?
2) What can you tell me about 'Gothita' and 'Vulpix'?
3) What exactly is Team Rocket's purpose? Should I fear them?
Thank you very much for your time.
- Celestia Ludenberg
[Those aren't her only questions - by far - but at the moment they're the most pressing. If she finds someone helpful she'll pick their brain, anyway.
For now, her tea is waiting.]

2) What can you tell me about 'Gothita' and 'Vulpix'?
3) What exactly is Team Rocket's purpose? Should I fear them?
Thank you very much for your time.
