icecreambat: Russell Hotel, Room 25: the overview so as i mentioned, Room 25 happened on complete half-accident. i hadn’t actually planned on staying overnight, but after my legitimate meltdown outside the hotel (which i hadn’t anticipated cos wtf?? suddenly blindsided by a WAVE OF EMOTION) we went in and moromi decided to ask about availability completely on a whim. because it seems my tattoo appeased the harurin gods enough, the lady receptionist told us there was indeed one night vacant for room 25 on monday the 24th – in other words, the very night before i leave. (i make it sound a lot more chill than i was, because moromi and gatoraid spent an entire day laughing at my pain and taking pictures of me freaking out at the prospect –and then reality– of spending the night in Room 25. when we checked in, the guy receptionist immediately knew i had to be a fan of free! because i had reserved this room, and we spent a while chatting about the show and how they’ve now put the room’s keychains into production to be sold on ebay later, for anyone that’s interested. the “that haru guy must be pretty good” line is a 100% legitimate thing that came out of his mouth after talking about the popularity of this room, i wish i could make stuff like this up) as you can see, the room is slightly different from what’s shown in episode 12; namely, it’s a lot fancier. to be honest, right now it looks like a honeymoon suite. yes, the shower has a glass door. no, you can’t really lock the bathroom door (unless there’s some part of the mechanism that i’m failing to understand cos I CANNOT LOCK IT). there’s a tv, a minibar, and an armchair but no separate table. and a fake fireplace! to be honest it’s a really, really nice room and at a great location, so completely worth the money. (and tomorrow morning we get to have breakfast asdf i’ve already decided that it’s what they ate too) that being said, KYOANI, WHAT THE HELL?! if i hadn’t been overwhelmed enough by how beautiful the rocks are at night, how amazing the view is towards the harbour bridge and opera house… well, this room? is not something two teenage boys would ever theoretically share. not with platonic intent, anyway. there are a thousand hostels in this city, and you pick a hotel that could not possibly be more romantic if it tried. this is ridiculous. i cannot believe i am here. i cannot believe i love this show this much and i could not be happier because this is literally the harurin honeymoon 2k15 climax. there is nothing to aspire towards anymore. i have ascended. or in other words, MATSUOKA RIN, I AM FUCKING ONTO YOU. -- source link
