News has been impossible to avoid.
Not that he minds. He's been on board with the idea since reading one of the FLYERS, because he's kind of curious what it feels like to be drunk in VR. Naturally, because Finn is a social drinker, he tries to rope Tuesday and Furrlicity Purrfection into potential haunted house shenanigans with him.
Whether or not they're on board, he'll be there.

You wouldn’t think an adorable little catgirl can chug, but of course, most adorable little catgirls aren’t actually twenty-nine year olds who had been presidents of fraternities once.
Being unaware of this simple yet crucial fact will be the downfall of Finnegan Fjord.
This one is for BETA SIGMA SIGMA GAMMA.
A frat party in a VR game, though? That’s like a new level of lame. Leave it to the losers at Round 2 to be the hosts (no offence, Furrlicity Purrfection, Tuesday actually likes you… catperson bond and all, ya know?). Can people even get drunk in VR? Probably, since it's deep dive and all.
As per usual, curiosity over the intricacies of the game that may or may not be a possible investment is part of what drives Tuesday to agree. The other part, though? That’s just Tuesday wanting to have fun doing something stupid with some online friends.
She hadn’t brought her Fennekin with her tonight. This is no place for children.

Furrlicity probably knew about the party before anyone else did. He was a guild member, after all! Some of the coolest ideas, like the creepy doll room and inflatable hammer hallway, had been his!
It takes Furrlicity a little while to finally decide on who to bring. The pokemon he thinks that will fit the party theme the most are...

"Hey! Mister, hey! Can I come to your guys' party?"Yggy tagged after one of the Round 2 members she had spotted on the street, hands deep in her pockets. The man was pushing a large keg on a dolly and it bumped and rattled with every step. "Hey, did you hear me?" She leaned around him, eyes wide. "So I heard there was gonna be a big party and I was just making sure it was cool if I maybe like, dropped by! I've never been to a rager before." She grinned sheepishly, rubbing the back of her head. The Round 2 member seemed to be in a hurry, but he still gave her a smile. "Yeah of course dude, more the merrier!" "Rad!" Yggy pumped a fist. "Should I bring like, banana bread or something? A gift?" Statistically it had to someone's birthday, right? "Nah man, just bring your A-GAME!""All right!"The two high-fived and Yggy was on her way, a spring in her step. She'd been worried they might turn her away on account of being a teenager, but considering there was no way to ID anyone's actual age (was there? Maybe in User Settings?) she'd been able to skate through. If that's true, I guess I have Dad to thank. He'd sent Kenny the Worldscreen, after all. Surely he'd been trying to tell him something. Yggy just had to find it. And a big party—the first big party!— out of Beta sounded like a good place to start looking. oshawott pikachu g.meowth

"All right. I have five minutes."Based on her calculations, Papa was still pulling into the driveway. It would take at least five minutes for him to come inside and catch her playing VR if he came straight to her room, assuming he'd knock. She had that much time to log off, disconnect, hide the WorldScreen her uncle had sent her, and pretend like she'd been sitting on her bed embroidering or polishing her collection of antique sword replicas. Morgana checked her timeclock in the corner of her HUD and spun around, tearing the flyer off the lamp post with a flourish. Her eyes narrowed. Isn't this from that 'haunted' sector of the map? She'd been dying to go there, no pun intended, but hadn't been able to fly over there on Guillotine due to the flying restrictions introduced in the last patch (boo). "QUACXEE, set an Event Notification on the Calendar," Bergamot said, eyes riveted to the ROUND 2 logo. She smiled, dazzling and dangerous. "Team Morgana is going to crash a party."mudkip gyarados klefki

Orion would stare at the flyer for a moment, half drank coffee in one hand and his bag half slung over his shoulders. The last few days had been quite...well, something that was for sure. He was still waiting on his results for the extra credit exams, but otherwise he'd managed to get out of there with straight S's, something he'd never managed to do back in the real world. He'd never been to a rage run by college dudes, sure he'd raged, but those were Cayge Ragers and partying with family was a lot different than partying with strangers whom the only bond you shared was the fact that you both went to the same school and they had booze.
Speaking of, how the fuck did Nintendo let them have booze?
Something was off, and Orion Cayge the Ace detective was going to investigate. You know, for...science. If any hot cooeds also wanted to cop a feel of his biceps or talk dirty to him about pokemon typing that was just icing on the cake. Pausing, he would open his UI and shoot Lucky Guy a quick message.
"Ayo, the Round 2 Guild is apparently throwing a rager and I'm curious to see if Nintendo allowed Hydance to code in actual booze. You wanna check this shit out with me?" Orion is joining the party! Bringing with him -Loki the Sneasel! -A Hopefully freshly rescued Achilles -Arachnae the Dewpider! Gotta have plenty of water to prevent hangovers!

Alice heard about the party before she read about it. She had a habit of striking up conversation with NPCs, feeling comfortable engaging in conversation with them and trying to think of it like practice for engaging with other players. She wanted to be friendly and outgoing, but since she was still Alex deep down - an introvert - it was something like a skill she had to work on more. "Finally, a flyer for this thing..." she murmured, reading over the details. Well, it would be a great way to start building connections with other players... Hopefully they wouldn't all be more experienced than her. Work had kept her busy the last week, minimizing her time in the game. "Will I actually be able to drink in the game?" she wondered aloud. It might be worth showing up just for that. STELLA (CHIKORITA) - N/A - N/A

Ruby did not want to go to this party. She never had been a party girl in school, but it seemed that didn't stop her from being convinced to go anyways. A simple flier had made its way towards Mom's hands, and the wonderful woman that she was only encouraged her to go. It was strange, considering she took the form of a teen in this world, and there was absolutely going to be alcohol here.
Virtual alcohol? Would that do anything? Imagine, tricking the brain to believe it was intoxicated? Was it any different than the realistic pain one felt?
Perhaps she was thinking too much on the subject.
In the end, the young woman acquiesced to Mother's demands to socialize with her fellow siblings. After all, what could go wrong?

“Are you going to the party tonight?” “Dude, I wouldn’t miss it for the world. I heard there’s gonna be woods beer. Like, beer found in the woods.”H0LYN3V1L stopped in his tracks and stared at the two NPCs near him. “Wait, like, was it just like, a puddle of beer?”“Does it matter? The party is gonna be hella sick.” H0LYN3V1L stormed over to the two. “Um, excuse me. There’s no party tonight. I would know. And I don’t know about a party. So you’re lying.” The NPCs looked at each other and shrugged. “Nah dude, it’s definitely tonight.”“Liar! If there was a party I would have been invited to it.” “Bruh, it’s an open invite. You just gotta go to that weird rundown house.”“I am H0LYN3V1L! That’s right, The H0LYN3V1L. I would have gotten an invite specifically if there was a party because I am super cool and strong and the best.”<Best at losing, maybe.> Snivy sneered. H0LYN3V1L gave him a soft kick. “Shut up. Only pokemon who have won fights get to talk. Anyway, I bet the party won’t even be that great. I mean, how good is a party without me there? I should go by just to see how lame it is. Yeah. That’s what I’ll do!” Snivy

Laguna took one look at the flier that had fallen from its post in the middle of town, and immediately canceled all of her plans.
"I was going to go grocery shopping this evening. But this sounds so much more fun!" She laughed, grinning widely down at her Bergmite. The loyal iceberg had been sliding across the ground beside her, but now it was tilting its entire body in confusion as it attempted to look up at her trainer.
"It's a party, Glacia!" She quickly grabbed the flier off the ground, almost spinning in place as she read it in depth. "A party in a haunted house, specifically! It'll be fun! Besides, I've been to the afterlife twice already! What could actually scare us, huh?"
The Bergmite was confused even more so. She didn't really know what was so exciting, but she was happy her trainer was happy! The two of them ran off through town, trying to get any last-minute preparations done before the big event. Marina the Brionne Glacia the Bergmite Sir Hail the Cryogonal

There had been a strange darkness... a slumber that had lasted months... but Kath felt a weight on her eyelids. Perhaps more precisely; Kath felt felt her eyelids exist again.
"Wake up, baby!"
Suddenly she wanted to go back to sleep.
"Oh God..." she said.
"Not God, baby! Me! Grookey!" Her little Grookey was intermittently jumping on her tummy and poking her in the face with a stick.
Kath felt the world start to exist again. From behind her she heard another familiar voice.
"Come on, man," said Bulby, her Ivysaur. "We got a party to get pokeminted at."
"How long did I sleep?"
"Few months," Grookey said cheerfully.
"Pokemaggot."
"Shit, what about all that stuff I was gonna do?"
"Pokemessy."
"Guess you didn't do it, baby!"
"Poke-fucked-up!"
Kath and Grookey and Bulby head to the party.

Big Bee had heard the whispers. He'd read the flyers. Hell, he'd even seen the billboard that Round 2 had put up at the outskirts of town.
"The marketing guys did a great job with this," he said, nodding in appreciation. "You really get the sense it was made by drunk frat-bros."
It was important that Big Bee attend all of the major events on site. Hydance needed to see what went on inside their game. How players actually played the game. And the best way to do that was by being a part of their own creation. He'd stick to the background, of course, but there was always fun to be had. Besides, apparently orioncayge was going, and he couldn't let his Bandana Bro down! TKO the CLOBBOPUS - Jam the GROUDON - Rian the THWACKEY

Luka hears about the event in whispers and rumors at first.
It all feels very exclusive and hush-hush, until a flyer quite literally lands in her lap. And then, she feels rather foolish.
But that doesn't stop her from deciding to go! After all, what better way to make friends in a new game than a party? Maybe she can grind enough to afford a cute costume in-game too... how fun!

Lucky had been called to drink. Sure, the reasoning wasn't quite the same. Orion wanted to check out the bar, see what the place was like and all that. Lucky did not care about this part, of course, too engrossed in the thought that he had been called out to a bar, probably to drink. It felt like it had been... how long, now? A year, a year since he had last been asked out on a night to drink. The reasons were surely different, and he didn't mind that one bit. The pleasant surprise of finding a social gathering inside of a video game took away the strange and suspicious thoughts of the previously unheard of bar in a region that was known for not having buildings. After all, why care about that? Lucky was going out to drink. L ucky is taking: Decidueye, Seedot and Dustox.
