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.
NOTES
PROMPT NOTES
▶ Weddings are not legally binding. Birdvis is not registered as a real officiant, but he does have an excellent beak and pompadour.
▶ Prizes from easy mode slot machines are automatic and do not require mod thumbs up to claim.
▶ Chip prize from difficult mode slot machines is automatic. The special prize is 5 reward points to add to your bank on rewards. Players who wish to claim the special prize should link the finished thread (the kink in question has been completed) under their rewards header with the header, Wedding Slot Machine. If you do any combination of 6/6 (finger hand lol) we ask you somehow make this sexy or involve a climax in order to claim the points.

▶ All new characters on the TDM are WILDCARDS, which means they have not yet been assigned a card value. The house is still observing and deciding. As rank and suits are assigned upon acceptance your new character's suit will not manifest until they are accepted into the game.
▶ All TDMs are game canon. This TDM acts as the game's February event.
▶ Current characters may top level on the TDM. Please make sure to review the arrival prompt notes! Any current characters posting to the TDM should note they are current in their subject header.
▶ The top level directory is for new characters only. We want to make sure new characters are priority and receive attention!
▶ If you aren't satisfied with the prompts on this TDM please feel free to check out our LOCATIONS to explore more of the resort.
▶ Smut threads that take place on this TDM can be used for rewards. If both parties in the smut thread join the game, you may retroactively apply the character's initial card values to your 52 bank. 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!
▶ We ask you to kindly add content warnings to your threads as appropriate.
▶ If you do not currently have permissions and kinks listed in your character’s journal we suggest leaving a note in your top level of any limits or boundaries for other players to reference.
▶ Thank you for spending Valentine's Day with us! You're our sweetheart this year. 💕
1. Arrival - Evens; lounge potential CWs: none to note
[no one's dead. that's good enough for his sensibilities, at least. moreover, he's managed to find a pack of cigarettes among the presents they'd been given (he doesn't want to talk about the marriage thing, thanks), so as he sits in the lounge with his wedding suit untucked and messy, any potential partners may find themselves subjected to the acrid smell of smoke and ash. as it stands, he's not particularly talkative—but one can tell from his gaze that he's aware, paying attention to the comings and goings in silent suspicion.
if someone approaches his little table, he'll exhale a weary sigh, ashing his cigarette after another drag before he even speaks.]
[he's... behaving. Angel isn't used to having to behave, but in this place where it's becoming all too clear his options are extremely limited? he's not that stubborn.
the slots seem safe enough, so he gives it a spin. and stares blankly at it for a moment as the damn thing cheerfully reads off hold hands with someone borrowed in the bridal suite. what the actual fuck. fine. it's fine. totally fine.
to whoever's in the bridal suite with a ring on their finger, you might just find your hand grabbed by a particularly gruff, not particularly tall guy who has just... stalked over to do so. it's fine, this definitely, surely won't end badly for him at all. in spite of the fact that he's just done this, he's also quick to speak, voice a low grumble.]
I'm not interested, this is for a payout.
3. Wildcard
[if nothing here works for you, feel free to HMU at any of my contacts (DM or audiophilic is probably easiest), or just hit me with a wildcard. I'm absolutely down for pretty much any prompt, but Angel does not make for good general engagement out of hand for them—I'm happy to write custom starters. he's kind of a stick in the mud for intimacy and a bit misanthropic, but he'll relent if the circumstances are right. non-human characters he'll warm to a lot faster, too. 18+ for smut, 20+ preferred, if anything goes that way, he's 35.]
[ it seems as if nothing is safe in this place. the water, the food.. one drink at the bar and dan feng is feeling hazy and warm again. setting down his glass, he lifts one hand to his brow, brushing the hair back from his horns with a low, soft sigh, his heart pounding in his throat.
he should retire back to his room, he thinks.. but dan feng has been arguably lonely. hundreds of years in the shackling prison will take a toll on even the strongest of minds. so he glances at the person beside him, a man with smoke curling from his lips. ]
.. are you feeling well?
[ is this aphrodisiac in all of the drinks, or was he the lucky winner? ]
What? [He's been sitting here, brooding over his cigarette for the last while.] Of course I'm fine.
[He is, visibly, not fine actually. The smoke is helping to distract him, but there's a flicker of something deeply, painfully hungry there under it. Maybe the aphrodisiac isn't in all the drinks, but it's certainly in at least theirs. Exhaling a sigh along with a muttered curse, he pulls the cigarette from his lips and sets it in the ashtray.
At least the guy isn't human, though he wonders exactly what that means now. Anything nonhuman back home would be a machine, but that hasn't seemed to be the case here.]
[ dan feng's gaze sweeps over pieces' face, frowning thoughtfully. flushed cheeks, dilated pupils, tension around the mouth.. he's hiding it well, but dan feng can't help but think that his companion here might be feeling the same as he is. ]
No. I only..
[ he passes a hand over his brow, his cheeks burning, heart pounding in the back of his throat. already, he's beginning to harden in his pants - this place is a nightmare, honestly. ]
.. I'm feeling a bit lightheaded. I apologize for disturbing you.
["a nightmare" is an understatement, if you ask him. But... feeling a bit lightheaded, huh? Eyes flick across the room briefly, noting how busy it feels even with just a few people milling about. That's probably just him, though...]
If you're feeling lightheaded, [He posits absently, turning his cigarette in the ashtray to put it out unfinished and tuck it between his fingers to cool,] you should probably be finding an infirmary or something.
[stupid. This is fucking stupid. Despite his obtuse answer he's pushing himself up onto his feet with a sigh.]
C'mon. Let's go, then.
[If Dan Feng decided to interrupt him ("interrupt," like he was doing anything), he may as well try to help, right? Sure. Right. Laika would probably laugh at him right now for this part of his nature. Surely, it won't end badly.
At least he can slip the smoke back into its pack now that the cherry is fully darkened, stepping closer to the taller man.]
[ dan feng is no fool, he knows just what it is that his new.. acquaintance here is suggesting when he gets to his feet, and he hesitates but a moment before he, too, rises from his seat, his hanfu settling around him as he stands. there's no reason to deny him, after all, not when he has gone out of his way to interrupt him. ]
I doubt the infirmary could offer me what I need.
[ .. actually, you know, in this place, maybe it could, honestly.
smoothing his clothing, dan feng falls into step with a soft exhale. ]
[is he pretending not to know what he's even offered? Not... really, no. It's more that he simply must make it anything but simple for himself, and it makes him a little obtuse.]
Ugh... [It's a perfectly reasonable question, he's just...] as far as we get. Yours is probably closer.
[Honestly, he's not sure if he thinks it would be more comfortable to get to a room or to succumb to instinct along the way. Neither, likely.]
[ this man hardly seems keen on this, but he would not have offered had he not meant it, yes? they're both very much in need here, it seems that it would behoove of them both to work together to resolve it - dan feng is already achingly hard, after all, his body pulsing with errant need. his face flushes hot, but he does what he can to remain on task, moving with purpose toward the elevators that will take them up to the bridal suites.
not an ideal room, but.. it is what it is. at least he knows it will be very, very comfortable. ]
My name is Dan Feng.
[ they ought to exchange at least that much, all things considered. ]
[he's a contrarian, sorry, Dan Feng. honestly he'll get used to it, he has to, but the idea that even the little bit he'd tried had been drugged just has him kind of mad about it.
that's not the Vidyadhara's fault, anyway.]
Ah. [a pause, like he's searching for something. without his mask, there's no point in that name, is there...] Angel.
[it feels like it echoes in the elevator, as he stares up at the lights. unfitting, he thinks, but it's what he's got.]
I'd say it's nice to meet you but this is a fucking bullshit way to get people together, on their part. [eloquent, he sure isn't. at least his expression's softened a little, more wryly amused than outright irritated. it's not Dan Feng's fault they're this way right now.]
