STUDENT/FACULTY AUCTIONS

[stay_classy_cat]

Who: Everyone
What: STUDENT/FACULTY AUCTIONS
Where: Auditorium
When: Friday, March 23rd
Warnings: A for AUCTIONS

It's that time again, where the school's impressive auditorium is filled with rows and rows of folding chairs, and prospective buyers take a seat while those waiting to be sold line up on the stage. At the podium, there is Seth Richardson; looking both thrilled and not thrilled to be here.

"Welcome, everyone to our Student-Faculty Auction! As you may or may not know, Host Club has invested a fair share of funding into this event to make it as wonderful as it should be. You should thank everyone in Host Club for all their hard work."

Yes, it had taken a rather large exertion on his part, and yes he was sure he could think of better things to do but, if all went well, his investment would see, ahem, some return in his own pocket.

Not that anyone needed to know that.

"Let's get started, shall we?"


[[APOLOGIES FOR THE DELAY FOLKS. At this and pretty much everything this event. We'll use this experience and future-date things a week in advance next time. There are some RULES TO THIS AUCTION so PLEASE READ:

• Help us and your fellow players out by also commenting in the TITLE with your BIDDING AMOUNT.
  
• Try be IC with character's money amounts... or lack thereof. We are pretty flexible and want you to have fun and you are allowed creative work-arounds; lying and loan sharks and playing out the subsequent consequences of those sorts of things are excellent options I fully endorse.
  
• One purchase per person. Bidding on multiple people is very encouraged, but you will only walk out of here with one.
  
• People in the auctions are allowed to bid on other people in the auctions.
  
• Auctioned people can come with a highly recommended Crazy Hand brand obedience collar™. These will be optional OOC, but if you utilize them they will be mandatory IC.
  
• If you don't see a thread for your character and you want in, don't hesitate to make one for yourself! If you see a thread for your character and you want out, don't comment or (preferably) leave a note and we can delete no problem.
  
• We'll try to help you as far as clarifying who wins who, but this will primarily be left up to player discretion. Use of ((OOC NOTES)) is highly recommended as RNG will not be involved. Unless. You want it to.
  
• Plotting and planning thread was here if it helps.]]

PROSPECTIVE BUYERS

[stay_classy_cat]

[Sit and chatter amongst yourselves--soon the competition will be fierce.]

[fullunlifeconsequences]

[OH BOY HER VERY OWN SLAVE. Hopefully. As fantastic as the idea was, she isn't going to spend more than a certain amount just for the sake of making someone miserable or having someone carry her things. She could get that for free with certain people anyway.]

Vinnie

[stay_classy_cat]

"Six feet and some inches tall, this fellow has a penchant for pink and smelling good. I'm sure he'd look great in a pot on a windowsill. If you've ever wanted a living, breathing, Floaroma Meadow for a weekend, place your bid now."

[punchtheflowers]

Well, it wasn't the most degrading introduction possible, but being forced into this event was humiliation enough. He was not optimistic enough to think that he was coming out of the weekend with his dignity intact.

Bulba

[stay_classy_cat]

"My dear friend and roommate~! You've never experienced sweets until you've tasted his. In fact, that is an excellent idea and one you should capitalize on. He practically belongs in a kitchen."

[rivalsweetscent]

Bulba was not entirely sold if that was borderline offensive or not. He also wasn't sure how he had gotten into this particular situation. It didn't really sit well, all things considered Oh well, he'd just... Hope for the best. Sigh.

Ness

[stay_classy_cat]

"I didn't know anyone could make a striped shirt ensemble look... decent. Surely you've seen Ness on the baseball fields hitting some home runs like the little star he is. Let's hear some bids on him~"

[pkrockin]

NESS WAS HAPPY TO BE HERE LOOK AT THAT BIG GRIN ON HIS FACE. He totally signed himself up for this and he wanted to be there for you.

Lash

[stay_classy_cat]

"You might need an extra collar just to keep her hair in place. Or a kick in the nuts. I'm sure she has a pair somewhere. I'll start bidding at one dollar, do I hear one dollar?"

Re: Lash

[thewunderkind]

Lash looked like SHE wanted to give Seth a kick in the nuts.

Bob

[stay_classy_cat]

"The mighty Arceus. Who wouldn't want her at your every beck and whim? I know I would. Oh, I really wish I could! If you're not going to bid for yourself, then bid for me."

50$

[will_be_god]

This had been the entire reason Cyrus had attended. A weekend with Arceus herself at his command...

Of course, he would be careful. He couldn't use even the promise of absolute obedience as a means of reshaping the universe. Given the situation, it stood far too much of a chance of backfiring.

But he could ask her anything he pleased. Uncover the secrets of the universe through simple conversation. Discover her motivations and anything she hid away.

He would have 48 hours and he intended to use every moment of it. And he couldn't lose.

"Five thousand p," Cyrus bid aloud.

Samus

[stay_classy_cat]

"Miss Aran is looking stunning today, and personally I think she'd look even better with a tight little collar around her neck... and not much else. Don't you agree? How much would you pay to see that?"

[icequeen_aran]

Samus thought Seth would look even better with a tight little collar crammed up his urethra.

Parakarry

[stay_classy_cat]

"Where oh where would the world be without a good delivery service? I really haven't a clue, so someone should find out by taking this man away from his job for one weekend."

1¢

[ihateplumbers]

"A PENNY."

Alex

[stay_classy_cat]

"You know, sometimes I'd swear he'd make a better girl, but that might be just me."

$20

[oceanshaper]

"Twenty!"

Sasha

[stay_classy_cat]

"And she'd probably make a better man! You know, in a complimentary sense."

$10

[monotreme_101]

He didn't have that much disposable income now that he was paying rent and bills and bills and rent, but if he could help a buddy out, why not?

"Ten bucks!"

Naoto Shirogane

[stay_classy_cat]

"I have never in my life seen such a nice pair of legs on a man."

Re: Naoto Shirogane

[thedetectiveprince]

The man's tone was aggravating. Naoto had been quietly watching him, and his subtle (sometimes very blatant) barbs at everyone, and there was just...something about him that got on her nerves. Detective intuition?

Of course that was forgotten for a short while when her name was called and she got her own turn. In a way it could be taken as a compliment, but...no she could sense the sarcasm coming from a mile away. Even the very idea she was being auction off was tossed aside. At least she was fully clothed for this...this school certainly enjoyed humilating it's students and staff at every turn, didn't they?

"Perhaps you should simply stick to names," she snapped, a little unlike herself.

Kieran

[stay_classy_cat]

"A new student! Look at those big, eager lipid pools of eyes. How could you not want to rip them out take him home for the weekend, mm?"

[buddingheart]

Big, eager lipid pools, indeed. Kieran might not have fully understood what was even going on, but he was so totally amped to be part of it.

Sparkster

[stay_classy_cat]

"He's a... what is he, really? A rat? A possum? Some kind of rodent? I can't figure it out, but he's got jet packs, so at least bid on those."

$20

[oceanshaper]

Well, he looked delicious!

"Twenty!"

Jon Talbain

[stay_classy_cat]

"Yes, I suppose if you're into dogs, by all means, bid away. Maybe you could teach him to fetch or roll over or play dead."

Re: Jon Talbain

[jonny_talbain]

"....wonderful. Dog Jokes. You truly are a wit."

Jon is displeased - can you tell? Actually, no, because he always looks displeased. Just take my word for it.

Phoenix Wright

[stay_classy_cat]

"Yes, good, a Political Science teacher who isn't some oafish sack of fat with an ugly over-grown excuse for a mustache..."

Re: Phoenix Wright

[thewrightidea]

Ahahahaha... Phoenix was slightly embarrassed at that remark, mainly because he was very afraid Eggman would be in the audience. Even worse, what if Eggman bid on him out of spite?

Well, he tried not to think about that.

Either way, he wasn't too excited to be auctioned off, but he would go along with it. Collars were not required.

Yu Narukami

[stay_classy_cat]

"There's something about this fellow that's just so... alluring."

$10

[cannonspike]

Why not? He was a bit alluring.

"$10!"

Vincent Brooks

[stay_classy_cat]

"You know what? I'm not even going to lie to you--this man reeks of failure of cigarettes. I can smell it all the way over here. But you can make him a winner today by bidding on him right now~"

Re: Vincent Brooks

[baad_romance]

"Man, fuck you!"

Best comeback.

Caim

[stay_classy_cat]

"Mister Caim, our resident murderer. He's already in cuffs and chains but I just can't imagine all the people who would love to dispense some well-deserved and long over due justice for the horrible, horrible awful things he did. And he can be yours for only a dollar. Do I hear one dollar for the psychopath murderer?"

$1

[oceanshaper]

"Here's one dollar."

Duster

[stay_classy_cat]

"He ehm... I suppose if you like the rank odor of cheese..."

$20

[kumagypsy]

"TWENTY BUCKS!" Kumatora leaped out of her seat before Seth even finished announcing.

Flint

[stay_classy_cat]

"Mister Flint, one of our big, burly Maintenance Technicians. What a real handy man, if you catch my drift. I'm sure you do, which means you should be bidding right away."

$10

[gunplay]

[omg is that a cowboy]

TEN DOLLARS!

Leon Powalski

[stay_classy_cat]

"He probably comes free with his little sassysnake Pokemon. Two for one deal! Act now~"

-100

[fullunlifeconsequences]

Blacky scribbled a bid on a piece of cardboard and held it up.

It was in the negatives.

Falcon

[stay_classy_cat]

"Physics teacher and football coach. What a mysterious guy, I almost never see Mr. Irritable without a pair of sunglasses on. Do tell me if there's anything malformed under there, I think I have a right to know."

-10$

[reign_of_power]

"Can't you just give him away for free? You'd have to pay me to get him!"

Zelda

[stay_classy_cat]

"What a pretty girl, and I'm sure she'd love the feeling of an impossibly tight collar around her neck. How could you say no to that, mm?"

$10

[rivalappeared]

"Ten dollars," slurred Green.

Brock

[stay_classy_cat]

"You know I'm getting hungry all over again. Hurry up and bid, won't you?"

$10

[fullunlifeconsequences]

Brock cooked, didn't he? She could swear she'd smelled delicious baked goods a few times as she passed his dorm.

"Ten!"

Pit

[stay_classy_cat]

"What could be better than bidding on an angel? Putting him in a collar and having him be your personal slave for the weekend? I agree. Someone make it happen."

100$

[thewunderkind]

"Dude that is so not happening." She raised her hand.

"A hundred bucks!"

Lash was gonna start this HARDCORE. No not this way.
