#ramunade

24th December

On the evening, Luni was the first to enter the ballroom in a fine tuxedo. He expects all guests to be in either party dresses or tuxedos.

Ellie, Bella and Usalina popped out of his pockets.

Ellie: The pocket was tight. I could hardly breathe.

The first few arrivals were Ramunade, also in a tux, along with Lado, Lemo and Yuni in dresses behind him. They all had to put on coats over their clothes as it's cold outside. Then when they entered the ballroom, they can put away the coats.

Ramunade: Mily and Rein will arrive a little later.

Bella: Luni! The door!

Charlotte entered the ballroom a little later than Ramunade.

Charlotte: The colours matches my outfit.

1chi: Oi Luni! Open up!

Luni opened the door.

Luni: That tux of yours is nice, 1chi.

1chi: Gee, thanks.

Minutes later, while the salt and pepper shakers were preparing the dinner, Ramunade recieved a call from Mily. She said she's at the door, so Luni went to open.

He opened it and there was Mily and Rein.

Ramunade: That's a nice tux, Rein. You've been wearing the same robe over and over again.

Mumble: Luni! I've finally learnt how to put on the coat right.

Luni opened the door: That's great! Come on in.

So how's everything so far?

Kinen: Luni! I'm here!

Luni opened the door again.

Kinen: I managed to bring in Abushu right here with me!

Abushu: Abu!

Luni: Alright, then enjoy the party.

Bex: Open the door! I've finally learnt some songs!

So Luni opened the door again. Bex was holding a file of papers. Behind her was Picc with her guitar, and Pawket with her mike in her hand.

Bex: Here, have these.

So Luni read the lyrics to the scripts line by line.

Luni: Did you rewrite the lyrics to the songs?

Bex: Yeah. It's going to be a parody, and a rearrangement, with my performers Picc and Pawket.

Pawket: Do we have to do this?

Picc: I don't know Paw, but I rather stick to the original lyrics.

An hour has passed and Luni hasn't got any visitors since at his door since.

Ellie: *yawn* It's about time to celebrate. Why haven't anyone come here yet?

The door: Hello. Who's there?

Bella: The door!

Usalina's thought bubble: Open it!

Luni went to the door and opened it. At the door was Senpaibuns and Pat stood at the entrance.

Senpaibuns: I'm sorry I was late. But I have this set of lights for the tree!

Pat: So how's everything so far?

Luni: Don't worry

Senpaibuns: I also had Mizumi with me, but she's having a lot of trouble in the snow. Her hair keeps turning into ice!

And Yukina's just playing in the snow. I hope her dress is still alright when she's arrived at the ballroom.

Oh there she is.

Mizumi: Senpaibuns! You're supposed to be my help to warm me up in the cold, why did you leave me outside?!

Senpaibuns: (chuckle) Oops.

I'll go put the lights up. You can stay inside where it's much warmer.

Yukina: Senpaibuns! I'm here!

Pat: Glad you're here!

And after they put the lights on the tree, and the salt and pepper brought in the dinner, Luni snapped a party cracker and the festive party began!

What's everyone's room like?

They all went up a nicely detailed lift with colourful carpet and it plays jazzy bossa nova when going up.

They arrived to the floors their rooms are in. Everyone scanned their cards on the smart locks and it lets them in.

A hotel room in Gacha Resort is always nicely detailed, with smooth walls, a soft carpet with a table and each table has a glass vase filled with water and a flower. Above the table is a ceiling lamp that glows orange like the sun when it sets.

Luni and Charlotte have a single room for 2. In the room there are 2 single beds. They also have Lusa and Ellie so they would have Luni's bed.

Daisy has her own room with a single bed like most of Luni's colleagues.

Lado has a single room with 2 twin-size beds. Lado has the left bed and Lemo and Yuni share the right bed.

Mumble and her crew shared rooms. Mumble and Nemu have the left room and Kaiya and Hansuke have the right. They have to leave the bags and tools in the van. The cooler box in Mumble's room does not work.

Senpaibuns had a bigger problem. Hers is the only group with more then 4 people so one has to be in a separate room. Pat chose the different room as he doesn't want any disturbance to his peaceful and serene nature.

Senpaibuns also share rooms like Mumble with the same 2 beds on one side and 2 on the other. Senpaibuns and Mizumi have the left room while Yukina and Alisa have the right. But unlike Mumble's room, all things are working. Cooler box, lights and doorbell, all are working well. And about Pat, he needs to share a room with Kinen. The two can't get along with each other.

Radd shares a room with Senpai Artz. SenpaiArtz secretly made a request for a Queen bed. And when Radd entered his room, he was shocked to see a big bed in his room.

They all got into their rooms and everyone turned on the TV. Each of their screens show what it's like to be in Gacha Resort. It shows the beach, it also has a bar on each section of the hotel, self-served restaurant, the Bright Casino, and the hotel's shopping outlet.

They stayed in their rooms, except Pat, who went to Senpaibuns's room to stay. The room with Kinen in it is where he sleeps at. The magical girls played card games on Yukina's bed. When they play free for all, Mizumi always loses. And when they team up, Senpaibuns always go to Mizumi's tag team but they also lose. Lemo and Yuni did dances while Lado watches the TV. Radd and Senpai Artz are watching Gachatube. Mumble could not stand having their bottled water left outside so Yukina came into their room to put the bottled water in the cooler box, and made snow in it.

A few hours later, Mumble and the crew began cleaning the beach. Not many people visited Gacha Resort in a year so the locals somewhat only contributed to more litter on the beach. Seems odd, huh?

They picked up the plastic bags and tools. They started at the sandy places of the beach. So far they've cleared out plastic bottles, aluminium drink cans, glass bottles, paper plates and cups, any leftovers, and paper from broken firework crackers. Mumble sorted them into the different litter and recycling bins while Nemu was only leaning on the plastic recycling bin and snoring.

Mumble: Nemu, you got work to do! Take a plastic bag.

After the beach is cleared out, Mumble puts on a fully-covered diving suit, a pair of flippers and a black snorkel set. She grabbed an empty plastic bag and stepped towards the sea.

Mumble: Stay there. I have to investigate the water.

Mumble went deeper into the water, picking up plastic bottles and fishing nets. The current pulled her away from the shore. Mumble kept herself afloat and not go under the snorkel limit. A pelican swooped down and tried to snatch the plastic bag full of litter.

Kaiya: Mumble's getting away! Hansuke, pass me a life buoy!

An underwater shadow of something as big as home, circles around Mumble. It leapt up to to surface. The shadow was a shiny black and white orca. Mumble spent months of training orcas and here comes one now. The orca surfaced again and frightened the pelican. The pelican might have tried to grab the bag Mumble's holding, it has no holes and nothing spilled out. The orca went under Mumble and out of the blowhole is a spout of water, sending Mumble into the air. Mumble holds tight to the plastic bag as tide currents swept her back to shore.

Up, up, and away!
