Haruhi Suzumiya
An Adorable Entity
The sun glistens against the desert sand as you drive by, your windshield stopping kicked up sand from obscuring your vision. Minutes and hours pass, and you don't seem to make any progress; Something's wrong, you're sure, but you don't really care enough to stop. Suddenly a woman's voice interrupts your radio...
"The desert roads get tiring, don't they?" Your vision's getting noticeably blurry, you note, and you feel a bit tired, yes. "You're probably having trouble staying awake at a time this late. Well, lucky for you, we have plenty of beds available at the Hotel California, which is coming up on your right in a mile or so; Feel free to stop by if you wish. You're more than welcomed here..."
A decisive click ends the interruption and your radio returns to normal. You mute it nonetheless and let yourself think a bit.
You stare at the road ahead as you drive, your eyes unflinching and unblinking. In the distance you see a bright light and a towering building, which you figure is this "Hotel California" the woman spoke of. Out of curiosity you stop and park your car outside the building... You walk to the door and open it, and the hallway just inside appears completely dark. A woman comes into your vision, her golden eyes ablaze from candlelight, walks over to you and takes your hand.
As you walk along mindlessly with the woman, you ask yourself; What exactly is happening? Who is this woman? Why have I not stopped her?
Most importantly, what is this place?
"Welcome to the Hotel California," you hear voices chime in to answer you. The voices sing - Voices of all kinds, all in harmony. "Such a lovely place..."
The woman turns around and looks you in the eyes - Suddenly the room lights up to reveal you weren't in a hallway but a large lobby, supported by numerous marble pillars strewn about. The woman hands the candle she was holding off to a man that passes her by and takes your free hand with her now free hand.
"Welcome, friend," The familiar voice - The one from the radio interruption, you recall - Chimes in, her voice sounds like music to your ears. "We're glad to have you here - Welcome to the Hotel California. May I escort you to your room?"
With that warm smile, her welcoming eyes and ever-so-kind gestures thus far, how can you say no?

Average Hotel Room - Most, if not all, of the rooms look like this. When one walks into the room, the living area is the first thing they see, which is the sofas pictured, then there's the bed, which is made for two, and beyond the dividers to the right is a bathroom. To the left is a closet, which contains summer clothing fitting to the room owner's gender.
The Lobby - A central stage is open in the middle of the room for performances, while the sides are fairly uniform (To what is displayed here; This is the left side of the lobby, and the right side is essentially the same thing but mirrored). The opening visible is where one would check in and out, though one does not leave the Hotel California...
Private Pool - An outside area available for access only to a select few. If one is not permitted to be in the pool, they will be forcefully removed if the need is presented. This can be found on the roof of the building, where nothing but clouds can be seen off the edge.
Public Pool - This is the outside area in which one will find everyone not permitted to visit the private pool. A bar and restaurant are opened here at night, and are to be used by everyone in the building, though a select few people prefer to have food sent to their room.

Essentially, basic RPNation rules apply - Is this 'rules' tab exactly necessary? You know RPNation etiquette, I hope, so if you want to join you ought to keep in mind this roleplay is in no way different from any other when it comes to expectations. I expect you write at least a paragraph for each post so the people around you have enough to work with, though if I permit short posts for a short time you may do so.
TLR: Use common sense, write a paragraph or more unless I say otherwise, RPNation rules apply.
