The Arms Hotel, Friday [9/23]

As the staff was putting the final touches of autumnal decor on the lobby, loud repetitive banging noises came from the storage closet behind the front desk, stopping everyone in their tracks. One of the maids grabbed a coffee pot, another grabbed a broom, and Gunther scurried off to the kitchen, returning with a rolling pin. After all, they had seen one too many gremlins fall asleep in that closet and wake up feeling bitey. So they waited, prepared to strike, as the closet door swung open and a disheveled Mary rolled out onto the lobby floor.

"It took me a while, but I finally found the 'Happy New Year!' banner… Hey, what's with all the pumpkins?"

The Arms Hotel is open.

Auntie Jane decked out in her best red hat led the charge to the front desk where she spoke briefly to the staff member then turned with a crow of delight to Aunties Gwen and Muriel also sporting red hats. "Upgrade to the Presidential Suite," she said cheerfully. "I told you all that things would work the same here. It's good to know, but not unexpected.

"We didn't disagree with you, Jane," Muriel piped in. "Just said we weren't sure."

"Pipe down," Auntie Gwen said, shouldering her way to the counter, "You, darling man behind the counter. Do tell me that you don't have plans tonight."

Arallt and Ashara made their way to the desk and got escorted to their room. They opened the door and walked in, and...

"What in the galaxy?" Arallt looked around at the very pink walls.

Ashara wandered through and found the king-sized bed. And the mirrored ceiling. "Oh, dear." She started laughing. "Commander, I think there's been a mix up."

He followed her, looked at it, and sighed, rubbing his forehead. "I suppose at least we've got a bed."

"I am absolutely getting holos of this," Ashara announced cheerfully.

Tavin had not wanted to spend any more time on the island than he had to. But he also had a feeling that his son was going to be as stubborn as ever and he might be there for more than a day. So he had tracked down where the local hotel was and went to inquire about a room.

He was surprised to find that there was already a room reserved for him for the weekend. Strange. But whatever. It was a room he wasn't going to have to pay for so he wasn't going to complain (much) about things.

The poor bellhop though, he was going to be disappointed if he was expecting a tip or anything from Tavin.
