EVENS
EVENS: NEW CHARACTERS
Music plays. Instrumental, the tune gentle enough not to disturb peaceful rest. The sudden insistent beep of the Watch is a cutting cacophony across an otherwise sweet lullaby. Upon opening their eyes, new arrivals will quickly discover that something is wrong. The quilt snug across their body is weighty. Crystals glint in a weave of embroidery and cotton shimmers with threads of silver. Dozens of decorative pillows surround the bed. The gauzy curtains of the canopied bed are drawn, obscuring the rest of the room.
Extravagant for a kidnapping. Too extravagent. What’s more, these new guests will find something even stranger than this new diamond-studded suite tucked into bed beside them. Someone else. Who are they, what are they wearing? What happened last night?!
Guests are encouraged to explore the resort from here! There are paper maps available for those who would like and staff are happy to recommend locations if they have any preferences. Enjoy your honeymoon, you lovebirds!
ODDS
ODDS: SPECIAL RE-ARRIVAL
Never trust a hallway in the Golden peacock.
Cross the wrong threshold and time begins to slow. A short hallway becomes long, sheds its doors, only leading to turns without end. Guests too eager to explore the resort have gotten lost before. For how long always varies, dependent upon capriciousness of the resort. Hours? Yes. Years? Yes. Every guest caught in the winding hallways has reported the same thing: time is different there and too difficult to discern.
Some wayward guests have been caught in the endless hallways since the FIRST TDM. Weeks pass before a single doorway appears in the distance. It creaks upon opening before everything goes topsy-turvy. These guests have been let out of a trap door in the depths of Crane's Respite.
All water corridors will eventually lead back to the populated areas of Crane's Respite. The waters are warm, the scent of bath salts returns, and staff are wild with joy at finally finding all of you. They have been beside themselves searching ever since you vanished!
NOTES
PROMPT NOTES
▶ Because we love all of the new characters premiering on this TDM, we kindly request that our Evens prompt be top level exclusive for new characters. Current characters are encouraged to tag in to these prompts with the caveat that they’ve been picked up from their assigned suite (or wherever else they were before) and dumped into the new arrival’s bed. We would like for new characters to have this prompt unique to their top level comments!
▶ Players are welcome to have their current character riff off of these prompts in the log community with the exclusion of the new arrival element. This request is just for TDM top levels.
▶ Current characters and new characters are both welcome to freely mess around with the Odds prompt with the exclusion of the arrival element. For new characters, players may participate with the idea that their character is exploring Crane’s Respite after their unique arrival in the Evens prompt. The Odds arrival element may also be utilized by current player characters who may have been on an unofficial hiatus in January and did not tag as much as they would have liked, to explain any long IC absence.
▶ Octopi may be killed. If a character decides to eat one of the octopi they may find themselves taking on some of its traits. Which traits are up to player discretion.
ELEVATORS
ELEVATORS
The house has recently ordered a full changeout of art in all high traffic areas. The elevators in particular have received special attention with many different famous artworks and portraits studded to the walls for guests to admire. These artworks are treasures of the modern world that one would typically see behind glass at a museum. Guests may even find works from their own world hanging in the elevators. Even famous works that maybe have been lost to time. So this is where they ended up. Is that Vermeer's The Concert?
Guests may find their elevator suddenly stopping without warning. The portraits on the wall stir, curiously studying them, but there are three main portraits calling the shots. The portrait that controls that particular elevator will make their demands known with the threat that, if they are not obeyed, you will be trapped forever.
Elevators will function after the portrait's demands are met. Guests that hold out and refuse may find themselves trapped upwards of twelve hours. Guests with the ability to do so may crawl out of the top emergency door, free to go wherever they want from there.
GREAT TIT!
GREAT TIT!
Great Tit! is the Golden Peacock’s popular dessert bar and cafe. With its bright pops of color and whimsical treats, guests simply can’t resist stopping in for a butt shaped cookie and hazelnut coffee. After catching wind that the resort has decided to celebrate a dessert shop's most lucrative holiday, Great Tit! is ready to impress the masses. Advertisements for limited edition drinks and desserts rain the main lobby; one can’t go three steps without slipping on a neon pink coupon for 10 percent off nipple buns. Guests that decide to pass by the cafe will find themselves assaulted with confetti cannons and eager employees ushering them inside.
Guests will find a temporary communal shower room upon exiting Great Tit! where they can wash off after a fun day of rolling around in sugar. All guests will be gifted a tee branded with a, CHOCOLATE IS MY LOVER logo.
NOTES
PROMPT NOTES
▶ This portraits prompt has been triggered by several characters expressing interest in and investigating the lore of the resort paintings. This is just dipping a beginning toe in, but congrats to all for poking around!
▶ Portraits in the elevator should not be destroyed, purely for continuity’s sake. If a character would go far enough to attack one of the portraits, the portrait will slap them back with ghostly power.
▶ Characters may also figure other ways out of the elevator if they have specific abilities to do so. While the portraits can control the elevators, they cannot control your character(s). Any destruction to the elevator itself is liable to result in a rush of security dragging the culprit(s) away to the Iron Net.
▶ Great Tit! is running a massive sale! Even characters who are on the broke end of the spectrum will be able to afford to join in on the fun and indulge in sugar at these prices.
▶ Players are encouraged to make up any other elements for the Hall of Chocolate. If it’s a dessert and edible, it’s there. Enjoy your sugar coma!
▶ While the chocolate boxes are ICly limited due to Alessandro’s skills as a chocolatier, this is only an IC mechanic. There is no OOC limitation on this prompt as far as chocolate rarity goes.
THE NEST
ALICE AND THE PARROTS
Fashion boutiques are a dime a dozen in the Nest. The shopping hub is massive, lined with stores all trying to aggressively appeal to guests. A challenge in itself — but the guests of the Golden Peacock are no ordinary people. Used to being pampered and fed excitement, if these boutiques don’t bust their bottoms to appeal to the fickle nature of their patrons, they won’t be in business for much longer! One particular boutique, Alice and the Parrots, is riding winds of romantic thrill and churning out a couple of brand new fashion lines sure to draw in loads of chips.
Guests are welcome to try on clothes in Alice and the Parrots' dressing rooms. These dressing rooms are small and can only accommodate two people sharing at a time. Such is the life of a small boutique store. Sharing is no big deal, right? And there’s no way you can buy clothing this expensive without giving it a test first.
NOTES
PROMPT NOTES
▶ Players are encouraged to make up whatever cute outfits they would like for this prompt.
▶ Wedding clothes do not have to be cute and frilly; this section accommodates tastes of everyone.
▶ Alice and the Parrots is more expensive than Love Dove. Their clothing quality is excellent but their price tags are high. Staff may watch low ranks extra diligently to cut off any stealing. Thieves will be chased by NPC security! Anyone caught gets a day in the Iron Net.
CASINO CHAPEL
CASINO FLOOR
A Pop up Chapel has appeared in the Phoenix Casino. Guests are delighting in playing out weddings and pretending to get married — and a few guests are even tying the knot for real. They aren't worried about the sanctity of marriage; they can divorce tomorrow if they get bored of each other. And everyone knows that getting married doesn't mean you can't fuck whoever you want!
Since the resort isn't keeping track of how many marriages a guest has, all guests are encouraged to marry as many people as they would like. The more the merrier!
Wild wedding events will continue all throughout the month of February, until the guests find it's gotten stale. A divorce rush will round out the fun at the end of the month.

If one character does not join the game the thread will not be applicable toward rewards (as that character would not have a card value). The character that does join would still receive a small payout for the encounter. Hopefully it was a fun thread anyway!

[ those sound like awful crimes. robin stands aghast at the other person in the elevator with him, already beginning to press himself against the corner in half-fear and half-apprehension. ]
Those are awful! Um... um.
[ he has to state one of his own, right? ]
I guess if you call... is littering a crime? Oh, and I guess not cleaning my entire plate once or twice might be pretty bad too.
[ the latter of which is Definitely Not One but you know. you know. ]
Littering's awful too; you're knowingly dirtying the environment for centuries to come...Disgusting.
[A beat. Just gonna let that sink in so Robin never again litters, before shrugging and sighing most dramatically.] But I'm not afraid of you, yet you are of me. Do you think I'm the more heinous actor here, then? I'll gla~dly accept my punishment, then.
But how are you going to punish me?
[Judgy John here is breathing way too heavily, pressed against the frame, eager to see a paddlin' or the like. Two Twinks In The Elevator Of Punishment, What Will Robin Choose?]
[ he can't promise anything. sometimes you pass out fliers to people, hoping they'll come to your show. and a few might get lost in the wind? or those who receive them might miss a trashcan. so. it's not really his fault, but arming them with future garbage is probably bad. he'll never forget it... ]
Oh. Really?
[ punishing him, who looks like a very handsome young man? he likes his hair. they're kind of similar in that regard.
wonder if he's also an idol... ]
I guess I could... um. I don't have a paddle though.
[ and then a paddle is dropped neatly at his feet. also a blindfold. ]
[Rui gets to work tying the blindfold on right away, even pinching at it against his nose so that he can't see through the gaps quite as much, before turning back to where Robin was with a blithe smile.]
Please do your best. I don't mind at all.
[Hm...But positioning. That's the rub. He frowns vaguely, trying to mull it over, before John barks, "Hands on the wall, villain! And spread those feet apart. Not for any reason other than to ensure the most skin gets hit, of course. Ahem." Well. That solves that problem. He's not about to make Robin go hunching over or sitting down just to slap his ass, after all, so this seems somewhat ergonomic. Just
let him feel for a wall, first. Just a moment. There we go.]
[ he takes the paddle in both hands as he wraps his fingers around its handle. it's not particularly heavy despite it being made of some kind of wood. he gives it a few test waves, face scrunched up in what could be construed as discomfort. he doesn't want to hurt this guy, so he'll need to be careful.
very careful.
he won't even know what'll hit him, with the blindfold on. maybe that's part of the... allure? ]
You're sure about this. [ not a question. it's a statement. robin takes a slow and calm breath though his heart is beating loudly in his ears and then draws the paddle back. ]
Here it comes. Three, two, one---
[ thwack.
the sound is admittedly louder than the force robin put into it, but he can still feel the very slight shock in his hand from the recoil. ]
[Turns out Rui wasn't bracing enough for impact either, which is rather rude of him. But the way his forehead knocks into the elevator wall is due punishment for underestimating Robin's guts at all, and John claps approvingly.]
It's alright. I deserve this, remember. I hope your arms don't hurt by the end of--
["Less talking, more punishing! And get out of those pants so we can see if the paddle's hard enough. I have more appropriate tools if not, you know!"
Thanks, John. Rui grimaces with distaste for the portrait; it's one thing if he decides to engage in self-destructive behaviours to make up for what he's done to other people, but having this kind of gawking audience is taking all of the fun out of it.]
I'm drawing a line on the nudity for now, thank you. Dinner first, as the joke goes.
["Spoilsport. That's another blow. Go on, Executioner!"]
I don't... really think you deserve anything bad... no one does.
[ it's like the paddle weighs a ton and his heart is barely strong enough to hold it up. yet he knows that if he doesn't, neither of them will be able to escape. that part seems painfully inevitable. almost as stinging as that red mark probably is on rui's butt. and he silently wishes he could see it too; not so he can check out his ass but to make sure he's not like. really REALLY hurting him. ]
Dinner first? [ a beat, then: ] Like... a burger?
[ yeah he's thinking about it. but as john demands another strike, robin makes a soft noise. a grumble, a whine. it doesn't feel good doing this to someone. ]
Maybe we can get some after this. I'll... feed you myself.
[ right. that'd make up for this! that's what he hopes as he draws his hand back and with a whispered apology, paddles the other cheek this time. fresher skin means more sting. ]
[the man has no ass to check out anyway this is just extended legs-to-back spanking action here!!
However. The fact that this guy, who was cowering away from him only minutes ago (a very logical response going by how people typically react to him), is taking his 'dinner first' joke seriously is...Surreal, kind of. Understandable, to a degree, but still surreal somehow. Even as he's smacked again, lurches forward (minus the headbutt) again, Rui's busy gawk-panting at what he can only presume is a most flustered reflection in the polished steel wall in front of him.
...Of course he's panting by now. It hurts, absolutely, but he's...He's still enjoying it, isn't he? Just the pain part. It'd be more fun if Robin was enjoying himself too, and the whispered apology earlier indicates that he's not, not really, but Rui's suddenly regretting not changing out of his tuxedo in its form-fitting glory.
At least the angle's helping him for now, and it's not too bad yet. But if this keeps up...Robin's going to be the one needing apologies, not him.
"Executioner! No apologising to the guilty party. And certainly no offering them burgers! If his knees aren't shaking, you're not leaving!"
Ughhhh, this dude. Really taking the actual fun out of this all. Rui grimaces blindly with distaste, before vaguely aiming an apologetic half-smile at Robin('s direction) to try and mollify him.]
You know, if you wanted to make my knees shake, your hands would be better.
[...John's considering it.
Rubbing his chin. Squinting. The whole lot. Before motioning loosely in approval. "Fine, as he says. It's worth a try."]
Edited (not my ass forgetting the blindfold. rip) 2024-02-14 21:34 (UTC)
he's dimly aware that some people could get off on this. maybe rui is. he should try to be less timid, less hesitant with paying on the punishment? if he's not--- will they be allowed to leave? will the cake he had hours ago be the last one he's ever had? would he have to... feed... in another way to survive?!
and then he snaps out of his stupor and puffs out his bottom lip in a pout, glaring at the painting. ]
If I want to offer him something, I'm allowed to.
[ rui does, more or less, placate john with a suggestion. even if it doesn't make sense to him... he could still do it. yeah. to get his knees trembling? it might be easier for him to do that. even if it's like. it might be equally strenuous on robin's hand to do it. but there's more than one way to get someone to shake than just brute force, right?
the symbolical lightbulb goes off. ]
And if I'm the one who has to do the punishing... I want to see how bright his cheeks get while I'm doing it!
