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.
BLANKET CW: Aphrodisiac; Compulsion; Costumes; Dubcon; Entrapment; Foodplay; Gambling; Lingerie; Matrimony; Tentacles; NSFW Images and Language; NTR; Nudity; Roleplay; Sacrilegious Themes
▶ 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. 💕
[ it's... well. he asked for it, so leona can't be that disappointed? except he is and the beastman continues to frown as he squints at deuce with pure unfiltered malice in those eyes of his. ]
Com'mon. Ya can do better than that.
[ and after leona gave him mercy by releasing his pin? guess he'll have to take charge, as he should.
leaning back in, he confidently presses his lips against deuce's. ]
[Well Deuce should have expected this. But he didn't, because Leona has a way of surprising people.
But instead, he makes himself lean in, to kiss Leona back, however messy it might be. Deuce still isn't sure what's going on, but he's no slouch either.
Deuce REached out a hand to grasp onto Leona's arm, hoping to steady himself a little more.]
[ much better. he rather have a little fight in whoever he's going to lock lips with than someone who'll be overly timid and cautious. but his expectations of deuce have raised just a little after that.
after a moment or two, he breaks it off. not that he doesn't dislike the renewed effort. ]
Better. [ ahem. ] I haven't seen your lil' red leader around yet. Guess you're lucky.
...no, of course not! I mean I don't know why we're married or how but I made a promise. I think. So I don't care what he thinks because I don't ignore my responsibilities.
[You can probably string him along for a long time Leona unless you really fuck up.]
As long as you're okay with being married? [Deuce pauses for a minute.] Are you?
[That's the weird part, right? What's Leona getting out of this? Deuce doesn't have that much to his name because he spent his allowance. And while he thinks he's boyfriend material, he's aware Leona's out of his league. Despite Leona's MANY flaws.]
[Deuce blinked at that because that opens up a whole avenue.]
I don't know. I mean there's usually like a marriage license or something, right? And I think we both have to be in the right state of mind or something.
[He's thinking really hard know and trying not to explode.]
[Deuce took a deep breath and leaned back against the headrest.]
You could have told me.
[Embarrassement is slowly starting to creep in, though otherwise, Deuce is actually at peace. The fact is, he can't afford a ring like the one Leona has, so this has to be fake. ]
What kind of place makes you get fake married though?
[Deuce's brain is about to short circuit from all the possibilities in front of him. But as if some fuse has been flipped, he just crashes back onto the bed and sighs.]
...just my luck. Stuck in some weird place like this.
no subject
[Deuce is shocked and then he turns beet red.]
I see. Well, that's... I mean if we're married...
[Still flustered Deuce decides to lean in and do just that, kissing Leona. Not too quick or too fast, but still a little clumsy.]
no subject
Com'mon. Ya can do better than that.
[ and after leona gave him mercy by releasing his pin? guess he'll have to take charge, as he should.
leaning back in, he confidently presses his lips against deuce's. ]
no subject

Better. [ ahem. ] I haven't seen your lil' red leader around yet. Guess you're lucky.
no subject
I don't even want to think about what he'd have to say! There's probably some rule about what we have to do now that we're married!
[He's picking his brain in a panic because he's taking this very seriously. Please Riddle is like Mom level. Except Deuce's Mom is much more casual...
He shakes his head, because no, let's not even think about Mom right now.]
no subject
Yeah? Maybe he'd get jealous. Maybe he'd try to break it up. Would ya let him?
[ let's see how long leona can string deuce along. see what kind of guy he really is. ]
no subject
[You can probably string him along for a long time Leona unless you really fuck up.]
As long as you're okay with being married? [Deuce pauses for a minute.] Are you?
[That's the weird part, right? What's Leona getting out of this? Deuce doesn't have that much to his name because he spent his allowance. And while he thinks he's boyfriend material, he's aware Leona's out of his league. Despite Leona's MANY flaws.]
no subject
Tch. 'm okay with it. Doesn't bother me any, I figure whoever my spouse is knows what they're gettin' into.
[ he blinks owlishly at deuce. ]
Do ya really think our marriage is bindin' if neither of us remember it happenin'.
no subject
I don't know. I mean there's usually like a marriage license or something, right? And I think we both have to be in the right state of mind or something.
[He's thinking really hard know and trying not to explode.]
So we could get it annulled in any case.
no subject
[ and then he holds up his right hand, to show off the simple ring around that finger. ]
But I can't say it doesn't look too bad.
no subject
No, it looks really nice.
[He looked at Leona's hand then had a thought.]
This is a trick, isn't it?
no subject
[ he stretches out, resting his hands beneath his head as he leans back into the mattress. ]
Place is meant to fluster and get people to do things, if ya know what I mean.
no subject
You could have told me.
[Embarrassement is slowly starting to creep in, though otherwise, Deuce is actually at peace. The fact is, he can't afford a ring like the one Leona has, so this has to be fake. ]
What kind of place makes you get fake married though?
no subject
[ but where's the fun in that? he hums as he thinks, ending up with only a single conclusion: ]
A place that wants to see married couples christen their relationship in an intimate way. That's what.
no subject
But Deuce pauses at Leona's words and has to think through them.]
An intimate way? But I mean we're already in the most intimate relationship there is...
[Then Deuce looks at the bed and it hits him.]
No way!
no subject
the beastman laughs, batting his eyelashes. ]
Took ya long enough to realize.
no subject
[He did indeed add one and one together, but at what cost?]
I mean not the sex and marriage part, but you know the wanting to watch? Are they just perverts?
no subject
[ it's a pretty easy assumption to make. ]
Either way, we're stuck here for a while. So ya might as well make yourself comfortable.
no subject
...just my luck. Stuck in some weird place like this.
no subject
Ya know, it could be much worse. Rosehearts could be here makin' ya play.
But if ya stick with me or one of the others, you'll be fine.
no subject
...I don't even want to think about that. That's kind of scary.
[Would Riddle be down at all for any of this? Or if he was, would he be an outright sadist?
Both thoughts were doing Deuce's head in.]
I can do that I think. Strenght in numbers.
no subject
[ he's not planning on moving. ]
Anyway. Unless you wanna do somethin' about it, I'm gonna lie here for bit. I'll let ya know when I'm ready to leave.
[ because this is a comfy bed and deuce is equally comfy. sorry. ]
no subject
On the one hand, you're heavy, but on the other you're also really warm.
[It was kind of nice actually. Like having a lumpy weighted blanket draped on him.]
I guess I can just wait.
no subject
That's what I thought.
[ and then he rolls off anyway, deciding to wrap his arms around deuce and snug him tightly against his chest. ]
no subject
...sometimes you're a pretty decent guy.
