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.]]

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!

[planking]

[Why is there nothing he can hide behind up here

Why is he even here

Why is there a dude trying to buy him

whyyyyyy]

[fullunlifeconsequences]

[Blacky is not sure whether to save him or just watch how this plays out. He's obviously going to be miserable either way.]

[gunplay]

[He will fight you if you try. COWBOYS ARE THE SEXIEST.]

$10

[stay_classy_cat]

We've got ten dollars do I hear twenty dollars? Maybe thirty?

[BLACKY. HE'S. LOOKING AT YOU.]

I mean, even I'd bid on him if I could, this man is going to go fast.

$20.

[fullunlifeconsequences]

[FFFFFFFINE. If only this auction had happened a few years ago, she would have spent every penny to her name. But for now, it's the competitive instincts of a Pokemon that drive her to raise her hand.]

Twenty!

[planking]

[Flint can't decide which outcome would be worse at this point.

How did he get roped into this hooowwwww]

30$

[reign_of_power]

"Thirty."

Ganondorf figured getting everyone to rise their prices would be amusing.

$32

[pkmach]

"Hey, wait a second! No one's gonna order my dad around! $32!"

[planking]

Meanwhile, Flint is crying on the inside.

[mandana]

MEANWHILE, BACK IN TAZMILY, SOMEONE FELT LIKE HE WAS MISSING OUT ON THE OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFETIME.

:'|

32$

[stay_classy_cat]

"Thirty-two! Do I hear forty? Come on now, families are one-of-a-kind, completely priceless~"

$50

[gunplay]

Suddenly fearing that his sexy cowboy fantasies are in danger, Ocelot jumps the bid, hoping to scare people off without giving up too much of his pay.

"Fifty! ...And there had better not be anyone using autofire to place bids, or I'll know."

55$

[thewunderkind]

"Fifty Five!" Lash said in a guy's voice, raising Claus' arms and giving him a bunch of money.

55$

[stay_classy_cat]

Ocelot just think of those fantasies slipping away between your fingers.

"See, there are the balls! Fifty five, do I hear sixty five? A little money shouldn't stand between family."

$100

[gunplay]

"One... one hundred!"

Oh he's thinking of it alright. Being a new teacher, he hasn't saved up much money yet.

$100

[stay_classy_cat]

Oh it's nothing a little Christmas Bonus can't fix--or a few bribes from your new cowboytoy.

"One hundred dollars! Fantastic, do I hear one hundred and ten?"

[planking]

Maybe if he just... made a run for it...

$100 GOING ONCE... GOING TWICE...

[stay_classy_cat]

"One hundred dollars, that's one hundred dollars going once... one hundred dollars going twice..."

Come on famillllyyyy what'll it be?

$100 GOING ONCE... GOING TWICE... SOLD!

[stay_classy_cat]

"One hundred dollars, going once... going twice... sold!"

Enjoy your new toy, Ocelot.
