TDM 03





【 Hello, dearest guests. We hope you have been enjoying your time in the Golden Peacock and utilizing our many amenities.

Reception would like all guests to be aware that some new arrivals have been misplaced. Due to the nature of the resort, new arrivals may have been misplaced in unexpected locations. This includes your personal suites. We are very sorry for this inconvenience.

Please do not be alarmed if you come across a misplaced new arrival. We kindly request that any guests that find a misplaced new arrival escort them to the main hub, where we have arranged a central meetup where all new arrivals can claim their complimentary robes and welcome baskets.

All guests are invited to come mingle at the main hub and meet new arrivals. As always, we hope you have a pleasant day! 】



DEALER'S CHOICE
STEVE, WHERE DID YOU PUT THE NEW ARRIVALS?

The Golden Peacock has swept away the hues of winter and welcomed vibrant pops of color for a change of pace. Gone are the snow whites and cool golds. Vases of bright florals have been staged all throughout the general hubs and hallways. Statues have been cheekily decorated with bright clothes, such as charming hats and billowing dresses with cheerful prints. This peacock has cleaned up nicely, its brilliant feathers shaking with a warm palette to please the senses.

Staff are bustling during the decor turnover. While some diligent employees are steadfastly decorating the hallways with sprawling vines and spectacular blooms, others are darting back and forth in search of something. Or rather — someone. Several someones. Front reception is in an outright panic while flying over the phones and furiously slamming their hands on keyboards.

"Steve, I know you're new, but you can't just press any button that pops up on the computer screen! The new arrivals are supposed to go into temporary suites." Deborah, the head receptionist, sighs, "Now who knows where they are. I hope they're okay... I'm sure they're quite confused, wherever they wound up. Steve, stop crying. The house won't fire you for this. Probably. How's your resume looking?"

THE BATHROOM BUTTON ▷ Due to a mistake at front reception, new arrivals aren't waking up in a temporarily assigned suite like usual. All new arrivals will wake up in a bathroom somewhere in the Golden Peacock. Steve, bless his heart, chose the wrong button and directed all new arrivals to bathrooms. Why do they even have a "bathroom" button at front reception, anyway? Who is that for?!

▷ Players are encouraged to get creative and have their character wake up in any bathroom location across the resort. Please feel free to reference our LOCATIONS for ideas as to where your character might wake up. As long as it's in a bathroom, it can be anywhere. Almost all locations within the resort have a bathroom!

Not even current character suites are safe. New arrivals may wake up in tubs, toilets, and showers in suite locations as well as general resort locations. For low rank rooms, the communal bathroom is also fair game for sudden new naked arrivals to wake up in.


THE MAIN LOBBYA welcome station has been set up in the main lobby. After getting their bearings and finding their way to the main lobby after an unexpected bathroom adventure, new arrivals will find racks of plush terrycloth robes and yellow tracksuits. They will also be given a welcome basket with general toiletries and snacks to get them started in the resort. Some gift baskets include special sex toys picked out just for them! They haven't tell anyone about that specific kink before? The house knows its guests well. No need to say anything at all.

Front reception has arranged a welcome party to greet new arrivals and help get them more comfortable. Not because they feel extremely guilty about the bathroom mixup and are hoping that these new arrivals won't complain to the house. Definitely not! With the help of 24K and Birdbucks, new arrivals and guests alike will be treated to alcohol or coffee at the front desk's expense. The fireplaces are roaring and several couches have been set up to create a comfortable atmosphere. Some long-standing guests have joined in to tell stories about how much fun they've had at the resort while enjoying a drink by the fire.


TIME FOR BED... BUT?Due to the initial mistake at reception there are no empty suites available for new arrivals to borrow. Staff have set up twin-sized cots at the back of the main lobby for new arrivals while sprucing up the situation as a giant slumber party. All new arrivals will be assigned a cot and given a privacy screen. Unfortunately, there isn't much privacy to be had when you're shacking up in a public spot.

▷ Don't worry — this will only be until check-in has been properly completed and guests have been assigned to their correct suite. We're so sorry, please don't complain to the house! Or if you do, blame Steve!

The ghost that haunts the main lobby isn't thrilled about this either. He's just a nice, low-key ghost that likes to watch people and knock over cups at Birdbucks when no one is looking. How is he supposed to do that with these people sleeping in the main lobby? In an effort to spook off these new arrivals, the ghost haunting the main lobby may whisper some odd things into their ears at night. Odd things like, "The person next to you is watching you sleep, you should run away," and "You just farted and everyone knows it was you. You should leave." Surprisingly effective, no?

In the end, Steve didn't get fired. But he did get reassigned to trash duty.



FLORAL RIOT
A STRIKE OF COLOR
🌸🌸🌸 Come experience new floral delights! Prepare to be ravished by a symphony of color and aroma. Romance, love, and pleasure all await within corridors of beauty. 🌸 🌸 🌸

Days before the grand unveiling, the gardeners of the Cloud Dwelling Garden distribute flyers announcing that their special floral exhibition is now ready for guests to enjoy. Long-standing guests vibrate in anticipation, eagerly stomping around the gardens until the ribbon is cut and the newest resort amenity has been revealed. The gardeners make a point to approach new guests and encourage them to join in on the fun, explaining that the house likes to create a new floral experience for guests every few years or so.

Exhibition opening is set for mid-month. On the 15th precisely, the gardeners line up in front of the white sheet hiding the project, each taking a turn to bow and say a few short words about how grand and generous the house is for giving them such rewarding jobs.

The curtains fall away to a wall of shockingly bright florals. Guests ooh and aahh at not only the array of shades but at the luxurious meld of so many different kinds of flowers. Wisteria and roses, lilies and carnations. Lilacs, peonies, daisies, daffodils, sunflowers. More and more and more and more. The staff explain that this flower maze is perhaps their most intricate piece of work yet and that there is grand surprise waiting at the heart. Additionally, as part of the festivities, several prizes have been hidden around the maze at dead-ends. Long-standing guests clap and cheer before charging inside.

THE FLOWER MAZE ▷ The flower maze is a winding marvel of foliage boasting over ten feet tall. Like the hedge maze, there are various twists and turns for guests to explore. This maze is a coalition of every flower thinkable, with many squared sections highlighting particular breeds. Bright pops of whites, pinks, and yellows knit with deeper purples, reds, and blues. Trees rich with blossoms hang low. Bushes rich with waxy leaves guide the way to different hidden alcoves and pockets. The flower maze is complicated and very easy to get lost in for hours. However, there is nothing magical or paranormal about it. It's just a flower maze.

▷ Guests may find statues overgrown with ivy within the maze. Despite the flower maze being a new addition to the garden, these statues are marked with age. They are weathered, having survived through the elements despite there being no real weather in the garden. Some statues are chipped and missing appendages. Despite how these old statues feel out of place in a brand new exhibit, they do not give any sense that they aren’t simply decor.

▷ Romantic gazebos have been incorporated into the design of the maze. These are popular rendezvous spots for guests to overlook the sprawling flowers and small ponds on the comfort of a small couch or a swinging bench for two. Some special gazebos have been furnished with daybeds and other comfortable furniture.

Treasure chests can be found hidden throughout the flower maze. Many of these chests are filled with sex toys and lubricants to help players get into the mood to play 52, but not only sex related items are available. Some chests may have clothes, some may have treats, some may even be filled with rocks.

▷ A few mimics have snuck in alongside the treasure chests. When opened, a mimic chest will curse the opener with a horny tongue. For a short period, the cursed individual will find themselves making erotic freudian slips. "How are you doing?" may end up coming out as, "How are you fucking?" While this curse will eventually wear off on its own, the embarrassment is forever.


THE GRAND FLOWER LAWNGuests that find the heart of the maze will discover the grand flower lawn. Also called the flower sea by staff, this brilliant landscape is covered in a lush carpet of flowers in shades of blue. Blue roses are the crown jewel of the flower sea, carefully dethorned so that guests may spread out on a velvety bed of petals.

▷ It isn’t impossible for our hardworking gardeners to miss a thorn or two. Even with careful checking, a few thorns have escaped scrutinizing staff. Guests pricked by a thorn while on the rose lawn will begin to feel drowsy. Effects may range from light exhaustion to falling into deep slumber. The cure for the rose's thorn curse is a kiss. Don't worry: true love need not apply in this case.

▷ Picnic baskets are available for guests that would like relax out on the lawn. Included in the picnic basket set: a blanket and set of pillows, fruit sandwiches, champagne, small cakes, and cookies. Hot tea and coffee is also available upon request. Staff are happy to accommodate any other special requests as well. Ask and ye shall receive.


SPECIAL LAWN GAMESAll guests lounging on the lawn will receive a cheerful message on their Watch: 【 WOULD YOU LIKE TO PLAY A LAWN GAME?

Guests that select the NO option will be left to their snoozing and merriment. Guests that select YES will receive a follow-up message.

▷ 【 Thank you for participating in the Lawn Game. Please choose one of the below options. You will be informed of what surprise task you have chosen after selecting an option. All level one tasks will reward in a small payout upon completion. All level two tasks will reward in a medium payout upon completion. All level three tasks will reward in two extra-large payouts upon completion.

Players will be prompted to select an option without knowing what the corresponding task is. The task will be sent to their Watch after they have selected an option. To see what your character is lucky enough to receive as their task, simply click the dropdown!

▷ There is no penalty for characters that wuss out and are unable to complete their prompt aside from a mocking message to their Watch,【 LOSER, LOSER, LOSER. BIG LOSER.

The flower maze will only last as long as the most fleeting flowers do. The flower maze will remain open to the public for several weeks, after which it will close for further remodeling.

"We'll be open again with another complex arrangement," one of the gardeners explains cheerfully. "A maze isn't fun once you've learned the layout. We'll open again after creating a whole new design for guests to enjoy. Maybe even some new flowers, too. A lot of the ones on the lawn got funky after guests came all over them..."



SMOKY NECTAR
DRIBBLE OF SWEETNESS
The conservatory is even busier than the gardens. Unlike the easygoing staff in the garden, employees in the conservatory are busy zooming to and fro with brooms while trying to get a handle on the unexpectedly huge amount of pollen. From flowers, from trees — so much pollen. The ground is coated and the air is thick. Several long-standing guests visiting the area have fallen into sneezing fits. Even with cleaning efforts to mitigate the build-up, the pollen becomes thicker as the weeks go on. Staff eventually give up on trying to sweep it away.

This pollen is not standard. Guests that inhale this pollen will begin to feel feverish and strange. Continued exposure to this pollen will heighten a desire for sex to the point of all-encompassing need. Orgasms become much more intense. Nipples are constantly hard. Guests may also be overwhelmed with the urge to "fertilize or become fertilized" — to aggressively deliver or receive cumshots. Gardeners soon realize that normal pollen has been tainted by the cross-breeding of their new spectacular fruits, resulting in an extremely potent sex pollen that affects people and animals. This sex pollen is stronger than any of the current aphrodisiacs in the resort, baffling the gardeners. They weren't even trying to make horny fruit!

The effects of the sex pollen will ease after a few days unless exposure is continued. Guests with too much exposure to the sex pollen may find themselves passing out from violently intense successive orgasms. Any guests found unconscious post-orgasm will be delivered to the Broken Wing clinic for recovery.

THE ORCHARD ▷ The gardeners are thrilled to present this season's fruit orchard. When the previously closed-off portion of the orchard opens, guests will find that some of the delicious fruit hanging on the trees are ... strange. In collaboration with the Dizzy Pigeon, the gardeners of the conservatory have crossbred several standard fruits to create new fruits with delicious, never before seen flavors. Sure, there are the typical apple and orange trees to pick from, but why not give something new a try? Each of these new breeds have been imagined with paying homage to one of the glorious suits in mind.

ORANGEBERRY: A blend of oranges and blueberries. This delicious new citrus has a hard outer peel but tender flesh inside. Sweet with a slightly tart aftertaste. Bred in homage to the Diamonds suit. Those who eat this fruit may experience heightened sensitivity to touch and temperature for a short period time.

PEARAPPLE: A blend of pears and pineapples. A brilliant combination of mildly sweet with a punch of tang. The outside of this large fruit is rough and prickly. Once cut into, the flesh is firm but juicy. Bred in homage to the Hearts suit. Those who eat this fruit may experience intense positive emotions, such as a sudden onset of one-sided love or excessive positivity, for a short period of time.

PEAPLUMTO: A blend of peaches, plums, and tomatoes. This succulent fruit is powerfully sweet, with a fuzzy skin and silky inside. A new favorite for juicing. Bred in homage to the Clubs suit. Those who eat this fruit may find themselves being extremely impulsive for a short period of time.

CHERRYUZU: A blend of cherries and yuzu. These tiny bunches of fruit are sour enough to make the strongest-willed person scrunch their face up! Small but powerful, these fruits are satisfying to bite into with a pop. Bred in homage to the Spades suit. Those who eat this fruit may experience intense negative emotions, such as sudden possessiveness or jealousy, for a short period of time.


THE BUTTERFLY DOME ▷ The butterfly dome is exploding with color. Bright dots of yellow and orange speckle greenery without restraint. An assortment of butterflies lazily fly from buttercup to tulip. These butterflies are unafraid of people and may approach guests, dusting them with the thick pollen that coats their wings before they flutter off elsewhere. The pollen here is thicker than anywhere else in the conservatory. Guests may feel the effects of the sex pollen more strongly while in the butterfly dome. Breathing in pollen for one hour in the butterfly dome is equal to breathing in pollen for several days in the rest of the conservatory.

▷ Several flowers glitter with moisture in the light. Upon closer inspection, guests will find that it isn't morning dew — it's floral nectar. Its light and smoky scent may trigger an intense desire to drink. Guests that give in to the urge and drink the nectar will find themselves overcome with unbearable thirst afterward. No amount of nectar, water, or any other beverage will satisfy. The thirst can only be satisfied by swallowing semen or vaginal fluid. The longer one goes without satisfying the thirst, the thirstier they will become.


BUNS GONE WILD ▷ The normally docile giant flemish rabbits that wander the conservatory have gotten into the spirit of 52 as well. These romantic rabbits have been mating relentlessly since the pollen hit, and now the vegetable patches have been overrun with hundreds of young rabbits looking for food. No vegetable is safe while dozens of baby rabbits are running free, not knowing that they shouldn't eat directly from the patches. Due to the recent vegetable shortage restaurants in the dining quarter have been complaining about not getting their produce deliveries. It's a real problem!

The gardeners have been begging guests to assist in catching these baby rabbits. There are too many for them to catch on their own. Guests who are willing to help will be instructed to catch the young rabbits and deposit them into the large wooden pen built to house them. However, this won't be an easy job — these little rabbits are fast!

▷ While the gardeners can't offer chip payment for the help, they will happily give any guests that assist good plots of land to raise their own vegetables. Rabbit adoption is also on the table!

The sex pollen will fade out within a few weeks, when the new breeds of fruit have all been harvested and delivered to restaurants. The gardeners collectively agree to be more careful when engineering new breeds in the future. "I do think," reports one worker in the conservatory, "the house will be impressed that we've managed to engineer an even stronger aphrodisiac. Great things happen on accident!"



PETAL-STAINED LIPS
A BLOOMING DISEASE
👩‍🦰 "Hack hack, hack hack... what do you mean, 'please cover my mouth when I cough'? I'm a rank nine. Nine! You can't tell me what to do. Now, clean up this mess. I've been coughing up flower petals all day." 👩‍🦰

Wet, smudged petals scatter across the floors of the Peacock. The source is initially unclear, since the perfectly groomed flowers in their decorative vases are in perfect condition. Soon the number of guests coughing into their fists begins to rise and more soggy plants plague the hallways.

After the garden and conservatory unveil their Spring additions the clinic will begin to over-run with guests complaining of various symptoms. There aren't enough beds and there certainly aren't enough doctors and nurses to meet rising demand. Guests continue to visit the clinic complaining of some sort of flower cold while spitting up petals and leaves. Advanced cases involve a deeper spread of vines through the patient's body.

Though this illness manifests in many different ways, the head doctor in charge is quick to clock that it's the Blooming Disease working its way through the resort's population. Not an especially dangerous disease. More troublesome than anything and a mess to clean up. Luckily, there are extensive notes in their files about this particular disease and how to treat it.

THE BLOOMING DISEASEA strain of hanahaki disease is running through the resort. Unlike the typical hanahaki disease that is brought on by one-sided love, this blooming variation has no single discernible cause. The nurses muse that it is perhaps a side effect of the intense pollen from the conservatory, but this is speculation.

Similar to the standard hanahaki disease, the main symptom is coughing up flower petals. However, the blooming strain manifests in many different ways, and doctors have seen variations of petals and vines creeping out from every orifice. Players are welcome to get as creative as they like with how the blooming disease presents.

▷ Doctors will make one point thoroughly clear: while medications are available to ease discomfort, the cure for this subset of hanahaki disease is sex. Only fucking another person will completely eradicate the disease. If the disease is not treated it will progress until the afflicted patient has turned into a monstrous pile of flora themselves.

It is possible to catch the disease more than once. Having sex will cure it but some guests have caught the disease in quick succession, requiring multiple sessions of vigorous fucking. Doctors are unsure as to why some guests only catch the disease once while others are susceptible to catching it multiple times. The nurses gossip about how they think it's those guests particularly desperate for love that are prone to re-catching it, but again — speculation.


ALL HANDS ON DECKWithout enough manpower in the clinic to meet demand, guests that have experience in the medical field have been asked to volunteer their time to help treat those suffering with the illness. Those kind enough to join in the effort to mitigate the disease will be given a full kit of medical supplies, which they will be allowed to keep once their stint in the clinic has finished. For the duration of their time working in the clinic they will be fully considered staff doctors and able to direct both employees and guests as they see fit.

Guests that do not have medical experience but who wish to help in the clinic will also be accepted. While they will not have as much power as experienced guests assigned to the doctor role, they will be onboarded as nurses and given basic tasks. All nurses will be given scrubs which can be kept after their job has been completed. Nurses are expected to defer to doctors but can dictate to patients.

▷ All guests that assist in the clinic will be given an extra-large payout for their efforts. The head doctor in charge will be so grateful that he will be happy to grant any other small favors and gifts if asked. While something like taking one of the patient beds would be too much, he will turn a blind eye to guests who want to pocket items like scalpels and stethoscopes.


CLINIC ENERGY ▷ So many guests have piled into the clinic that private rooms are no longer available. Large rooms will be utilized as group hubs with many patient cots, while smaller rooms normally meant for one patient will be doubled up on. All guests staying in the clinic for treatment will be paired with at least one other patient due to space constraints. Private rooms will be available only for patients separated out for treatment with one of the doctors or nurses.

All of the rooms in the clinic are fully stocked with condoms, lube, and sex toys. After the head doctor announces the cure for the disease, nurses will make sure every room has supplies available for patients to use. They will encourage guests to go ahead and get fucking since it's the only cure! While doctors and nurses are available to fuck as well, they are short-handed, so most patients will have to make do with other patients. To those stubborn guests who don't want to fuck for their health, staff will firmly explain that if the disease progresses they'll be reduced to nothing but a pile of vegetation.

Patients with particularly bad cases of the disease will not be allowed to leave the clinic until they are cured. Patients that have only been lightly affected will be given a prescription to fuck and sent on their way, with strict instructions to return if they do not fuck and the disease progresses.

The height of the disease will hit toward the end of the month. Thanks to the hard work of the doctors and nurses in the clinic, cases will begin to decrease as the days pile on, with the majority of the affected guests treated and sent on their way by the beginning of May. Activity in the clinic will begin to decline as patients fuck it out and cure the disease, with only a handful of scattered cases heading past the first week of May.



PROMPT NOTES
PROMPT NOTES
Arrival, The Bathroom Button: Multiple versions of arrival are possible. Characters may be flushed down the toilet or tub to wake up in several different locations across the resort.

Gardens, The Flower Maze: While players are welcome to imagine whatever they like in these chests, we do ask there be some limits. Characters should not find their special awesome sword or other personal items that were taken away by the resort upon arrival, for example. Items that would generally be available within resort stores or without regains are fine.

Conservatory, General: While this location is currently being influenced by sex pollen, players that do not enjoy this kink may have their character immune to its effects. This will not affect engaging in the hanahaki prompt.

Conservatory, The Orchard: Players are encouraged to get creative with effects from these fruits. While we've offered a couple suggestions, any of the affiliated suit's effects are available to tap into. For example, consumption of Orangeberry, aka the Diamonds fruit, can cause any Diamond-adjacent physical effects.

Broken Wing Clinic: Players are allowed to get as delicate or grotesque with the presentation of the Blooming Disease as they’d like; you can even use this as an opportunity to engage in some vine-y bondage play. From the medical perspective, feel free to envision access to any sort of equipment you’d like, so long as it makes sense within a (sexy) clinical setting.

[Tianlang-Jun found it a little ironic that after all he'd been through, it was a flower disease of all things that brought him down. At least far enough to seek medical attention.

The fact that he was the one to be cured through sex was even more ironic. But he had very little complaints about it, particularly as he saw who was coming in to be his nurse. Even with the wide array of people he'd seen since arriving, he knew a cultivator when he saw one.]


I assure you, I've looked worse.

[He held a hand out to take the outstretched hand.]

This Tianlang-Jun thanks you in advance for your assistance.

[ Ooh. Oh ho ho. *Mute’s head snaps right around, about to rip into whoever was fool enough to interrupt her while she gives these imbeciles a tongue-lashing...

... But stops, stares, narrows her eyes. A certain set of calculations execute. ]


I’m sorry. What, precisely, should I say to those in charge of our stay if they can’t manage to properly welcome their supposed “guests”? Something that is, apparently, completely under their control?

[ ... Well, it’s not more yelling. Is this a start? ]

[ What an unusual looking woman... *Mute is, of course, just going by her impression of what should be a man and a woman, but of all the things she could be mistaken about, she would be surprised that this one is on the list.

The name is less than surprising. Some sort of artificial being like her, trapped in the same straits? That would make sense. ]


*Mute. It's. [ A sigh. ] I don't know if I should say it's nice to meet you, but you seem level headed, at least. Could be worse.

[ ... *Mute takes in a breath, breathes it out slowly. ]

Did you see some of the other patients coming in? All kinds of shit growing out of them.

[ Neither of them seem like they're that far along, but it's a matter of time, isn't it? ]

[His anger is stifled by Sylvain's drop in mood and the gripping hold. Sylvain's holds always did bring comfort in their youth. Felix doesn't run to him anymore, but the aftermath of terrible battles sometimes makes him open to touch. It's almost like that now... Sylvain acting like he almost lost him. Felix is still for a moment, then he slowly brings a hand around Sylvain's back, and twists up some of his shirt into his hand to hold onto him in return. His temple bumps the side of Sylvain's head.]

...Obviously I'm okay. Was I knocked out? Why are you acting like a fool? What are you even doing here?

[All he can really see is a mass of soft red hair by his face. ...Huh, is his hair a little longer?]

Mordred | Fate/Grand Order

[personal profile] moedred 2024-04-17 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
ARRIVAL
I. TOTO WE'RE NOT IN KANSAS ANYMORE
[ Mordred was used to being summoned to unfamiliar places, but this was the first time she'd woken up naked in a random shower with the water running. weird. not the weirdest, but still pretty high up there even for her. maybe if she'd gotten black out drunk the night before she could understand it a bit better, but as it was Mordred felt painfully sober... and wet. soaked, more accurately, as she sat listless on the shower floor and water pounded mercilessly against the top of her skull. despite that her singular braincell was working real hard to try and piece together how she wound up there when someone opened the sliding glass door she was slumped against. the petite blonde spilled out of the shower with a high pitched yelp as her back made rough slippery contact with ice cold tiles.]

Shiiit-! [ hello??? good morning? where did this bitch even come from? ] Idiot, can't you see this tub's occupied!?

II. WHO DOESN'T LOVE A GOOD(?) GHOST STORY
[ Steve really fucked up, if Mordred ever got her hands on him she'd beat his ass for sure. she couldn't sleep, so instead she busied herself imagining all the different ways she could probably definitely kill Steve as she lounged on her assigned cot in the main lobby. her internal murder monologue kept getting interrupted, though, every time the lobby ghost whispered something stupid in her ear. ]

Do you ever shut the hell up?

[ rolling over she glared daggers at whatever fellow newcomer had the great misfortune of being stuck on the cot beside hers. no one else around them was awake as far as she could tell, so they had to be the fucker rambling on about gastrointestinal issues, right? ]

GARDEN
I. BABY YOU A MAZE ME | cw: bad dirty talk?
[ no one told her this maze was fucking cursed. she'd tried and failed to find her way out for what felt like HOURS now. every time she thought she had the obnoxious rainbow pathways figured out she found herself back at the same damn fork marked by some dickless old statue.

even the so called "treasure" she'd managed to stumble upon along the way wasn't much of a consolation prize. dildos, lube, rocks??? why would she need any of that? the last chest didn't have ANYTHING inside- despite having lingering traces of something akin to magic. what she hadn't yet realized was that little 'tickle' she felt upon opening it was actually a curse of Horny Tongue, but she was about two seconds away from finding out. still crouched over the useless wooden box she lifted her head to glare menacingly from the shadowy dark corner.
]

Piss off before I fuck you. [ um. wait. that came out wrong- ]

II. HOLY LAWN GAMES WAR
【 2♤ 】Take on a submissive role and please another player, either sexually or non-sexually.

[ why this??? she's a king dammit (not really) and kings don't submit to anyone!!! but even more than that, kings were not BIG LOSERS and a preschool level insult was really all it took to get Mordred worked up enough to prove her stupid watch-thing wrong. she stomped her unhappy ass across the flower lawn, marched right up to the nearest available person and... dramatically dropped down on one knee. Mordred bowed her head, submissive in the only way she knew how, and forced herself to speak the words through pain filled groans and gritted teeth: ] W-Will you be my Mmmaaassstarrrrrrrgh??????!?!?!?!?

CONSERVATORY
I. CHERRY PICKING | spoiler: she ate all the fucking fruits.
[ orangeberries, pearapples, peaplumtos, cheryuzus- you name it, Mordred ate it. so in no time at all she was FEELING EVERYTHING HAPPENING SO MUCH. it felt like the entire orchard was spinning, and really warm all of a sudden. like, ridiculously fucking hot. holy shit, was it on fire?!? ....nahhh, she'd totally know if the orchard were on fire... right? she started to strip off her tracksuit right there in the middle of the garden- she had to get out of those clothes!

she wandered around for a while in various stages of undress like a fruit gobbling hobo, flushed red from head to toe like a cherry ripe tomato when she grabbed onto someone in a desperate emotion-thick haze. notably, her grip had an absurd amount of strength for a tiny five foot nothing gremlin like herself. somehow she managed to sound terrified and elated all at once as shallow breaths practically steamed from her sticky sweet lips.
] HHHot! [ pls help, she's delulu on that fruit juju. ]

II. THIRSTY 💦
[ you'd think she would have learned her lesson from the fruit fiasco, but no, Mordred washed it all down with a big fat gulp of floral nectar. which explained why she'd scrambled around the whole damn resort in a manic driven frenzy. she downed every available bottle of water, juice, milk and every other liquid she could get her hands on. but none of it managed to soothe the scathing dry sahara that had completely overtaken her poor throat. eventually she collapsed in utter defeat beside a beat up vending machine, and judging by the piles of empty bottles that littered the floor surrounding her it wasn't hard to guess who was responsible for the damage. the power to the broken device flickered on and off as big neon letters flashed tauntingly: SOLD OUT.

so... who's gonna volunteer as tribute tell her she needed to give somebody head to quench her insatiable thirst?
]

HACKING UP FLOWERS
[ oh hell no. she's not getting caught up in anymore sussy ass shit!!! Mordred was on a mission to stay clear of anyone who seemed even remotely affected by the hanahaki disease. there were soggy flower petals on nearly every surface in the resort and no where felt safe. she just wanted to relax in a space of her own away from everyone else but she couldn't because she didn't even have an assigned room! GOD FUCKING DAMMIT STEVE!!!

instead she's forced to just. deal with it. tip toeing over flower petals like hop scotch and aggressively shouting at anyone that ventured too close.
]

Don't you dare fuckin' come near me you sicko! [ physically. orgasmically. she wasn't taking any chances. ]


( ooc: hello!! prospective new player here, please don't hesitate to shoot me a pm in the event you have any questions or there's something thread related you wish to discuss. I have some basic permissions typed up in Mordred's journal but if you're unsure about something just ask! general disclaimer: Mordred is a angry little shit but her bark is worse than her bite... mostly. I haven't determined an exact canon point for her as of yet so I'll be hand wavy re: specifics in terms of timeline, etc. I hope to one day be able to join you all, but until then I will wait patiently with my face pressed against the glass. ♡ )

[oi oi!! don't cause property destruction in other people's homes!!]

I know. But the higher ups would definitely frown upon it, so I wouldn't suggest killing anyone while you're here.

[a shrug.]

I see you're also from a place that lacks technology. I sent it here. Through your Watch. [he taps the one on his wrist.] But whatever, you can look at it on your own time. I'll escort you out, since my suite is a bit more complicate than the average room.

[there are elevators and shit...anyway he turns to guide felix out. but something he said intrigues him...]

You said you know magic?

[ The question has him picking his head up again, looking baffled as he searches his friend’s face. ]

What do you mean? I’ve been here for months!

[ Surely that had been noticed? What, did they think he’d snuck away from the edge of battle like a coward in the night rather than step back on that field? (Sorry, Felix, he’s had no reference yet for weird timeline shenanigans) ]

And something like that. Some of the roses still have thorns and they tend to send people into a slumber that can be difficult to wake them from. For most, it only takes a kiss to wake them, but I’ve seen a few that have required… some more intimate acts.

[ Because that’s a totally normal statement made about a totally normal situation, right?

Still, he hasn’t moved yet, half-braced over Felix’s prone form among the flowers. It almost looks like a picture out of one of Ingrid’s storybooks. ]

That's why you kissed me?

[If having a reasonable explanation was supposed to settle Felix, it actually makes him frown instead. Like it just made Sylvain more offensive. But he stays laying under him in the flowers, face still unfortunately flushed.]

...Wait, did you say months?

[His eyes widen in surprise, then he reaches up to grab a lock of Sylvain's hair and give it an accusing tug.]

Your hair is longer. How long was I unconscious?!
philancer: (023)

[personal profile] philancer 2024-04-17 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Look, I know you accuse me of recklessness a lot [ And with good reason. He is reckless. ] but I don’t have an actual death wish. I wouldn’t have done that without your permission.

[ Which is very different from just saying ‘I wouldn’t have done that’. Just in case that’s comforting. Or more worrying, maybe?

The tug on his hair has his head tipping back a little further, though his gaze remains locked on Felix’s face, a confused little frown lingering on his lips as he tries to figure out what’s going on. ]


Yes, months. It was early winter when I arrived here - at least here in the resort it was. Although it’s hard to gauge the actual passing of seasons since there is no real ‘outside’.

I have no idea how long you were unconscious, though. Not long, probably. I tripped over you - literally. Had anyone else found you, they would have tried to wake you up themselves or brought you to the clinic. I’m assuming you just got here?

A towel?

[Her eyes open, and she shuffles around to face him instead of the corner she tried huddling herself into. A gentle hand rests at his shoulder.]

If you're not done I could wash your back as an apology.

[Could definitely be worse circumstances, honestly.]

I did. I saw flowers and vines growing out of someone. Rather... horrific to look at, I admit. Certainly made our cases the more mild ones.

[Maybe that's why the doctors or nurses haven't been aggressive on urging them like he saw with the other more extreme cases. Although whenever they decided to check up on them, he can imagine them urgently advice the two to cure themselves already. Despite the horrors of the extreme cases he's witness, he sounds absolutely calm and unbothered.]

You think we will end up like that, too? If we do not do anything about it... Not that I am suggesting we should get to the cure now, mind you. [But they'll probably have to at some point, right? Before it gets worse. His head then turns toward the door, gaze centering on it, musing more to himself.]

All the other patients are going at it, unsurprisingly.

[The walls were soundproof for privacy, *Mute likely wouldn't be able to hear the sounds coming from the other rooms. But when you have absurdly powerful hearings... He isn't just hearing the rooms adjacent to them.]

I've seen worse.

[ mordred please, that's incredibly insensitive!

but there are definitely far more embarrassing states to be found in- she's even been subjected to a handful of them already despite having only just recently arrived. she crouches beside the day bed, an unruly mop of blonde hair shifting into Shinobu's line of sight. without asking she takes a hold of the other girl's hand and lifts it, turning it over as she scrutinizes the thin trail of blood that leads to the thorn prick.
]

Just as I thought... [ with a ragged sigh Mordred releases her hand and leans back on her haunches, arms resting over the tops of her thighs as she examines Shinobu's face next with a vaguely empathetic expression. ] You got pricked, huh?

I... haven't called you reckless in a while. You were the one calling me that... for getting in a few brawls and staining my title as Duke. Ugh. Don't you remember? But if you want me to criticize you so badly, I will.

[He really can't handle Sylvain staring directly at his face like that, and glances aside again while he tries to sort through his contradictory words.]

I did just get here. But I don't understand. We were speaking not that long ago. Not months ago. No way was that an imposter.

[ did he just...

a petite young blonde stares up at him horrified as her brain attempts to rationalize what he just said to her.

nope, not happening. shock quickly bleeds into anger and he's lucky Mordred doesn't have her sword because she'd be pointing it directly at his throat right about now. the fists clenched at her sides are still fair game, however, should he dare to get within striking range... possibly even if he doesn't.

Wh-What the hell did you just say to me!?!?

[personal profile] philancer 2024-04-17 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Okay, now he’s even more confused. ]

You were getting in brawls? And you don’t have a title yet, I think you’re safe for a little while yet. I should know. If I haven’t stained mine yet, you should be golden for another century or so.

[ But no. He doesn’t remember at all, actually And absolutely none of this made sense. ]

I’ve seen this place make time a little strange before, but I didn’t think it could affect anything outside of here. I remember us talking the night before the battle, sure, but I have definitely been here for months. So has Edelgard, for that matter. Was there even a battle to have, if she and Hubert were here? I can’t imagine the Empire could function well without them.

I. IN THE MAZE

[ An almost ethereally beautiful maze made of flowers with twists and turns and treasure chests located in some of the dead end nooks? It feels like something straight out of an rpg, and while Gen might not be thrilled to be here, he can't help the instincts that flare up every time he sees another treasure chest.

It's just...

It's just that the first chest had been filled to the brim with an assortment of very colorful dildos (he had left these all behind), the second a single hat that he'd also opted not to take, and now he's squatting in front of a chest filled to the brim with rocks.

Normal, boring, non-gemstone rocks. They are still covered in a light layer of dirt, like someone scrambled to fill a chest with whatever they could possibly find last minute, and hadn't even bothered to clean them.

His head is hanging down as his hand rests on the top of the chest, a heavy sigh escaping him as he slowly drops the lid of the chest closed again.
]

If they were going to insult me like this, they could have at least put a little effort into it.


II. BUTTERFLY DOME

[ Thoughtlessness is what brought him here. It seemed like a safe enough space though. What sort of trouble could you get in from a couple of tiny butterflies? A couple hundred sure, but still butterflies.

Gen looks deeply unimpressed and uninspired when he first steps into the butterfly garden, glancing up at the swirling display of color with the same lack of interest usually held by kids who would rather be playing games on their mom's ipad.

Coincidentally he would much rather be playing games on an ipad right now. He's not a communes with nature sort of guy.

The expression doesn't shift as he finds a nice bench to sit on, continuing to watch the butterflies with a dull expression as he decides where to head to next in this hotel, though in about ten minutes in a careful observer (though why would someone bother to observe him for long?) will notice a shift as he starts to look visibly uncomfortable about something. It also means that to a non-careful observer (presumably everyone), he still looks like something is bothering him. It might even look like Gen is ill with the way he doubles forward, hand pressing over his mouth and nose as his brows pinch together in puzzled confusion.

III. THE DOCTOR WILL NOT SEE YOU NOW

[ By sheer, dumb luck, Narumi has managed to avoid getting hit by a disease that will have him hacking up spit soaked flower petals all over the nice hotel floor. That might be what has somehow gotten him roped into impromptu nursing staff duty by one overwhelmed and stressed out looking medical professional.

Dressed in scrubs he really looks the part of a disheveled resident who is on a 36 hour shift as he tosses himself down onto a stool next to a patient bed, the chart he'd been handed in one hand, in the other is a pen he's carelessly spinning between his fingers in a way that screams "I am not actually listening to your woes".

He has absolutely no idea why anyone assigned him this task, but he was offered a reward for this, so "help" he shall.
]

Symptoms?

[ They're already written on the chart, but he doesn't need it or a verbal answer to know it's the same thing that everyone else is already here for. ]

Sylvain, I've had that title since I was 17.

[This is worrying. And frustrating. He starts looking Sylvain over, trying to see if there's anything he missed. This is Sylvain, he's so sure of it. He knows him. It doesn't feel like he's anyone else, but his words are all wrong.]

Edelgard's here? And you think it's this place doing this? Or is there something wrong with one of us?

[ The claws (should it be exposed for Reign to catch sight of it) and the glowing mark is indicative enough for him to realise that he's not in the presence of a human, should he have not seen the other handle the rabbits. ]

Then you'll be pleased to know that there are various eateries here. Restaurants and bars, cafés and bakeries, all available for your heart's delight. [ Though those places are of no consequence to Reign because he doesn't consume normal "human" food. ]

You're right! [ He chuckles as it dawns on him the logistical mayhem the gardeners have to deal with once this generation of bunnies grow up, considering how often they breed. ] No wonder the baby bunnies are allowed to be adopted.

I picked up some thunder magic from an academy before I had to drop out.

So you're not a higher-up then. Who are you supposed to be?

[He certainly didn't feel any need to hide them. Tianlang-Jun pushed himself up to sit on the grass, rolling his shoulders.]

I would hope so. It'd be a crime to kidnap a person and then not provide them with ample entertainment and leisure. I've dealt with enough that that kind of discourtesy for a lifetime. [The adoption comment makes him blink.] Is that something people do here? It'd be one way to get an heir, I suppose. Bit frail, though.

[Mordred pls she's dying.

Just kidding, but one might suspect she isn't too far off from that fate as the blond-haired woman takes hold of her limp hand. Shinobu stirs, her lashes fluttering as she picks up the shape of someone squatting in front of the daybed. She's tired enough that she had dozed off in-between Mordred addressing her and releasing her hand, but now that someone is here...
]

Ahaha. A careless mistake, don't you think...?

[Shinobu sighs sadly, because if she were more awake she'd feel way more irritated about this. Instead the fatigue weighs her down, makes her languid and relaxed.

Still, she forces herself to remain awake to blink sleepily at the other woman.
]

You... wouldn't by chance know how to make this fatigue fade away?

[ When the other shifts into a seating position, Reign takes it as invitation to join the other, settling down cross-legged opposite him. The little bunny, however, has other ideas and decides not to possibly subject itself to being controlled again as it hops off and scuttles away. ] Aah! Oh well...

I'm sorry to hear that. This place may seem like an upgrade, but we're still trapped here nonetheless. [ Heir, huh? Reign wonders if his own father would resort to adoption, now that he's exiled and having lost his birth right.

Even so, he shakes his head at the question, then shrugs a shoulder. ]
The bunnies have never been up for adoption before. They're usually here for anyone to come by and play with them. But if you want to adopt one as your heir, that's up to you. [ A fancy notion, though... ]

I… I am so confused right now.

[ Sylvain scrapes a hand down over his face as he huffs out a breath. But he pushes himself upright into a sitting position a moment later, reaching out and offering Felix a hand to help tug him upright, too. ]

There is something wrong somewhere, that’s for sure. You’re not a Duke yet, Felix. Your dad… he’s fine. I spoke to him hours before I woke up here. We were all in the strategy tent for Gronder, trying to decide the best way to proceed.

[ None of them had really agreed, but that didn’t matter when Dimitri was only after one thing anyway.

He shakes his head, still bewildered. ]
I don’t know why we remember things differently. But yes, Edelgard is here. She arrived the same time as I did. So did Hubert and Lorenz, although I don’t think either of them are here anymore. Or if they are, I haven’t seen them in a while. We all declared a truce while we were here, though. Figured we had enough to deal with, without adding strife from home on top of it.
