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.

Well, whatever. I feel awful, so what.

[It normally wouldn't affect him much, but the effect of his smile and gaze has Felix flushing and looking away, firmly avoiding eye contact.]

Doesn't that get troublesome, being so helpful that it's your nature?

[Yeah, this guy really reminds him of Mercedes somehow.]

...I'm Felix.
massochism: (♪Till you're done)

[personal profile] massochism 2024-04-19 10:03 am (UTC)(link)
Ah—sorry. I just mean that it likely has a different method of fixing it... depending on the cause. Do you know what happened before it started?

[healer problems, Felix. he's not pushy on eye contact though, so there's that.]

Any nature has its share of troubles, I think. What's important is that those troubles don't outweigh the benefits. I'm helpful, but not a pushover.

[well, not a pushover in any way that matters. in any case, as they reach the edge of the dome he can dust off some of the powdery pollen that's been clinging to them the whole damn walk, for all it helps.]

It's good to meet you, Felix, circumstances notwithstanding.
putupyourdukes: (11)

[personal profile] putupyourdukes 2024-04-19 10:37 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe it's troublesome for others. I know some helpful idiots that sometimes don't guard their own backs and need saving themselves. They're too focused on others.

[He rubs at his temple as he mentally retraces his steps, but it's hard to think in the state he's in.]

...I... was tasting the flowers. I mean, the nectar. I don't know what compelled me, I don't like sweet flavors anyway...
massochism: (olivine148)

[personal profile] massochism 2024-04-19 10:48 am (UTC)(link)
I can't claim to have caused no trouble for anyone else, but I do like to think myself a little more than a "helpful idiot." Letting your guard down around monsters is a surefire way to cause more problems than you solve.

[the nectar. of course he tried the nectar in the horny butterfly place with all the pollen. like, Olivine hasn't put them together yet, but it's concerning—nothing else quite as much as that revelation though.]

A compulsion... mm. It wouldn't be the first time this place has taken that route to push people into what it wants. Which— [there's a pause as he considers if he even wants to say it, to put that inconvenience out there and (maybe more importantly) risk being seen as an opportunist.] —which most likely means its intended fix is related to sex.

Barring that, I can see if I can isolate the cause, but without knowing more about the flower than we do, that'll be difficult.
putupyourdukes: (12)

[personal profile] putupyourdukes 2024-04-19 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Finally, at least one person is sensible in a fight with monsters.

[He's taken aback at the next thing Olivine says. A heated blush crawls up his face as that information sinks in. He's read enough of the given information that it does sound like the true conclusion... He frowns and looks away as he considers this. It's difficult to really get a helpful thought while his body is aching for relief; if anything, his arousal just got more intense.]

[He abruptly scoffs and reaches up to fix his loosened hair, tying it tight back into a long ponytail.]


...Fine, I get it. I'll do it. That's preferable to trying to wait this out.

[Maybe. He's never actually had sex before, he has trouble even looking people in the eye. But the difference here is instead of being an unnecessary distraction, it's the way to get his body back in better condition.]
massochism: (olivine185)

[personal profile] massochism 2024-04-19 08:18 pm (UTC)(link)
... is this really the first you've heard of that?

[There's a touch of amusement there, a little sigh. But—the shift is more important to him.

Olivine has seen it on occasion, of course. Consideration, frustration, weighing the consequences—he's been a priest long enough, talked to people enough, to see those little signs. Or... not so little signs, really. To be so afflicted that you'll ignore your own norms to get relief is difficult, no matter what the circumstance.

But as Felix fixes his hair, Olivine... blinks owlishly as his brain catches up from the space of "figure out the actual trigger in the plant."]


Ah— [a pause, and Olivine inhales a slow breath. At least they're not in the butterfly dome anymore. And at least, he supposes, he'll be able to monitor any changes in what passes for Felix's "essence."] I'm happy to help you through this, if you're sure... Broken Wing is probably a little far under the circumstances, but I can... acquire one of the private rooms for us, if you'd like. And in the meantime: is there any urge associated with the feeling of dehydration, or is it simply that...?

[this is definitely a bit awkward, but like. Olivine is sort of used to that. He's not detached by any means, but there's definitely plenty of professionalism here.]
putupyourdukes: (11)

[personal profile] putupyourdukes 2024-04-19 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[Felix makes a startled motion, and looks away, flustered.]

I... thought I would go find a certain fool who propositioned me earlier, just to make it quick. But... if you're serious...

[He supposes he should say something to make this situation sound less like a chore. Olivine has been too helpful to be completely mean to.]

And I guess... you're not... unattractive.

[He's really terrible at giving praise. It's true though, Olivine doesn't look bad to him. He drags a hand over his face and groans.]

Yes. I have urges.

massochism: (olivine179)

[personal profile] massochism 2024-04-20 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
Oh— [Olivine laughs, and it's plainly at himself, good natured and light.] I wouldn't be offended if you did go to find someone else, either.

[this isn't easy for him, that much is clear. Apparently he's also bad at praise, which is kind of cute actually? It reminds him of Rei trying to convince him that he's such a bad man...]

I apologise for the... frank questions, Felix, but it does help me know how best to help you.

[He offers a hand before starting walking again, fully expecting it to be ignored or walked past—at which point he'll just start forward himself. There's no real expectation to it, after all. The rooms aren't too far now, at least. Felix will just have to ignore the... supplies the resort furnishes them all with.

Or ask questions. The priest is happy to answer anything really.]

[He avoids the offered hand with a wary glare. But he's doing his best to let down his boundaries and actively open himself to someone... so after a minute, he seizes the hand, gripping it like he's the one holding it for the benefit of Olivine and not the other way around.]

[He's working up the nerve to say something, and it comes out rather bluntly, his face hot and blushed.]


...I want to use my mouth. ...That's... the urge you asked me about... I'm almost sure.

[it reminds him of some of the orphans at the church, really. afraid to let down their guard, but wanting something. pretending the grasp benefits him more than it does the shorter man is a simple task (because it does also help him, after all).

the quiet feels tense, and that alone is enough to sort of set him up to expect the blurted words. glancing to Felix, he nods acknowledgement, brushing his hair back with his free hand.]


... then I can definitely help you with that. And if it doesn't work, we'll figure out what will.

[it's a promise, spoken without even a hint of lascivious intent. this situation sucks, especially for Felix, and he just wants to help.

which starts, of course, with getting into a private room and locking the door. it's clean and fresh, smells nice, and all the trappings of it being a sex resort are... well, not exactly hidden, but not as blatant as some rooms. they got lucky this time.]

[The heat is at least dulling Felix's thoughts. He follows, eyes flickering over Olivine's form for short periods and then glancing away.]

I'm not made for this, so I'll defer to you. I've struck more people with a sword than I've ever touched with my hands...

[His voice croaks from the dryness, and he places himself in the center of the room to show readiness, watching Olivine without meeting his eyes.]

Being inexperienced hardly means you're not "made for" something, you know. And there's no need to be nervous. I'm hardly made of glass.

[a gentle admonishment, to be sure. after all, everyone had to start somewhere, right? his brows furrow in compassion at that croaking though—whatever had happened, it's certainly doing nothing short of indiscriminate harm. so he doesn't drag things out, taking one of Felix's hands to guide him to the bed.]

Mm, there are... a few ways to do this. I can stand while you sit, you can kneel on the floor, or... we can both settle on the bed. I'm happy to work with any of them.

[while he waits, Olivine shifts to deal with untying the front of his trousers, honestly glad he's just gotten into the habit of wearing easier to remove clothing... even if it's still as intricate as ever.]

[Being accused of nervousness seems to square him up. Eyes narrowed, he follows Olivine's movement, allowing the hand to take him to the bed, then keeps drawing forward with the momentum until he's leaned over him, a hand braced on the mattress by Olivine's thigh. His long ponytail falls forward over his shoulder and his face is close to Olivine's face, but even in that proximity he doesn't quite meet his eyes. Long habit of being uneasy with direct eye contact.]

Hmph. So what would you say you're made of, then?

[He takes the hand that had just been holding his own, and brings it up. He touches his lips lightly to Olivine's thumb, considering the digit like it's practice for what's ahead.]

...I won't mind getting on my knees.

[oh, but he moves quite willingly when Felix boxes him in, peering upward through long lashes as his weight leans back, milky scent more plain at this distance. This is most assuredly a man who isn't unused to being under partners, a thread of comfortable mischief on his face. He could take you, Felix. (In a fight too, yes. Possibly. It'd at least be a worthwhile spar.)]

Hmm... I wonder. Maybe you can tell me what you think...?

[His fingers are soft and delicate with just a few calluses here and there—from reading and writing mostly. And that thumb traces across Felix's lips to give him a little more sensation, sweet and warm.]

Then by all means... or are you planning to try to get me to make you move? Hehe.

[more and more people seem to be bringing out this side of him of late.]

[There's a powdery shimmer on Felix's hair, skin, and clothes, more obvious to see up close. Iridescent butterfly scale dust, clinging to him like an aura.]

If you want me to judge you, I'll do that when I'm done with you.

[He has some easily-said and colorful descriptions for most people he knows, but he's still figuring Olivine out. But the suggestion to make him move has him raising a brow. Even a playful implication of struggle has him thinking about fighting. His breath catches a little at the responding touch on his lips.]

You can try to make me move if you want to. I don't go down easily.

[For now, he presses his tongue to the pad of Olivine's thumb, then slowly pulls it into his mouth while continuing to lick down to the join between it and his forefinger. His hand squeezes at Olivine's wrist while he holds his hand steady. So far, this is coming surprisingly easy.]

I'd be lying to say I wasn't curious.

[no one has really given him that many descriptions to his knowledge (probably just to his knowledge), so of course he does have to wonder. but really, he's still more focused on Felix getting what he needs right now. the teasing is... a nice little addition, mostly.]

If I want to... hm. I don't expect you would be easy, no.

[Olivine is quite used to men who are deceptively strong, and Felix, for what it's worth, definitely holds himself like a fighter. for as much as the priest really knows fighters, that is.

anyway, for now the shorter man is unopposed in his machinations, his thumb shifting only lightly as it slips into his mouth. it's always... well, a little fascinating to watch how different people approach this. of course, a thumb is a poor indicator for the effort of actually going down on someone, but it's a good start. at least he'd found it good enough when he did.

there's a slow shift in pressure then, his fingers curling lightly over Felix's chin and pressing back a little. more of an urging than an actual effort to force him, but they can always play when the other isn't so... parched, if he wants to keep going.]

[His eyes flicker over Olivine when he returns pressure with his fingers. His own pulse is beating hard... though he's moving deliberately, he hasn't been able to shut off his feelings. He feels more vulnerable than ever.]

[He releases his thumb, trailing his lips down his palm and scraping teeth against the inside of his wrist. Exploring with his mouth as he gets himself used to the other man's skin and warmth. He thinks Olivine smells pleasant, not sickly sweet like a perfumed person.]


...Well, let me see it.

[Releasing his wrist, he slides backwards until he's kneeling on the floor between Olivine's legs, resting an arm over one of his knees. He tugs at the end of the tie Olivine had been working on undoing, fixated on it like a cat with a string.]

[He's glad he'd opted for a private room. As much as Olivine has gotten used to spontaneity, this has more to do with Felix, and he'd have to be blind to miss the discomfort there. At least this way, he's only uncomfortable around one person.

As to himself, there's a light shiver as teeth graze the skin of his wrist, scent light and milky even. Definitely nothing like a perfume, to say the least. Fingertips graze over his cheek just briefly.]


Of course, of course.

[There's a quiet fondness to the acknowledgement, understanding in that this is not... easy for everyone. So his fingers reach to pull the last bit of that tie free, fingers slipping into the hem of his pants to push them down alongside his underwear. He's—proportionally sized really, if only half-hard at the moment.]

I can... try to guide you, if you'd like, but this is mostly about figuring out what you enjoy. So just take your time.
