[goldmods]

【 Thank you for choosing the Golden Peacock, 5-star resort and casino. You are currently registered as a WILDCARD in our system.

Due to a high volume of check-ins, temporary accommodations have been made on our brand new beachfront for new guests. We will endeavor to have all guests moved into their reserved rooms as soon as possible. We apologize for any inconvenience. Affected guests may convene with the nearest lifeguard or reception for a complimentary swimsuit, at their earliest convenience.

Please remember that beach-appropriate attire is mandatory. Guests found breaking dress code may be escorted off the beach until they return in proper swimwear. We hope you enjoy your stay, and have a beachy keen experience. 】

BEACHFRONT PROPERTY

A BRAND NEW DEVELOPMENT

As the resort moves into what it claims is summer, the days grow longer. The sun is projected well into the evening, the heat of its warmth dialed up to a level some guests complain is unreasonable. Then there’s the most excessive transformation of all – half the Cloud Dwelling Gardens have been transformed into a sparkling beach of white sands and blue waves, seemingly overnight. Statues nearby have been dressed up with wide hats and stylish sarongs. Upbeat music fills the air without any discernible source.

A section of the beach has been reserved for a collection of bungalows. These cute pastel homes open straight onto the sand, and are comparable in size and amenity to a rank 7 or 8 suite. All screens within these bungalows are fixed to a channel that airs reruns of Boobwatch around the clock, a classic TV series about blue-footed boobys running in slow-motion across the beach. Staff and long-standing guests all agree — there’s no better summer programming than this!

IT’S FREE REAL ESTATE

▷ Thanks to a classic move called “overbooking,” new arrivals are being checked in to all this wondrous new property that’s just opened up. The catch? Why, characters are stuffed up to 4 in a room, of course. Don’t worry, that’s what the bunk beds are for!

▷ Characters still wake up naked save for a robe, as is standard for the Golden Peacock. This round’s robes are a light and breezy linen, patterned with tropical flowers and colorful designs. Some of these robes are more sheer than others. Watch out that the gentle breeze on the beach doesn’t reveal more than you wanted.

▷ Existing characters are welcome to temporarily take up residence in any empty slots in these homes. The staff understand that sometimes you want to pretend to be a brand new guest again, all bright-eyed and ready for adventure. They can even lock you out of your real room for an extra bit of authenticity. No need to ask! It’s all taken care of already.

THOSE WHO POUND SAND

▷ Several lifeguards have been newly hired to protect the beach and its visitors. These burly fellows and lasses all have three things in common: skimpy swimwear, rippling muscles, and seagull heads. They spend most of their time hanging out in groups, flexing and gossiping loudly. If characters approach them for their complimentary swimwear, they will provide whatever they’re currently wearing for them to use... by force, if necessary.

▷ Characters who seem particularly vulnerable or are holding something particularly tasty may find themselves surrounded by these lifeguards out of nowhere. The seagulls are relentless, pushing and shoving and pulling hair until they get what they want. Hope you didn’t like your sand castle very much. Those on the lower end of the rank scale will suffer the worst harassment, and they may even go out of their way to harass wildcards, 2s, and 3s just for the heck of it.

▷ Being new hires and fairly low on the resort staff hierarchy, these troublemakers can be easily chased off by someone of a high enough rank, or an assertive enough presence to pass as one. T-they’re not scared! They just remembered they have a mandatory group cawing session to get to! Buzz off!

FUN IN THE SUN

DON'T FORGET TO OIL UP

What’s a beach without fun and games? Dreadfully boring! That’s why all of the beach classics have been expertly set up by staff, including strip volleyball nets, giant boob-shaped beach balls, and plenty of floaties for use in the shallower areas of the temporary ocean. A row of parasols with paired lounge chairs underneath them are placed in some prime viewing areas for festivities. Any time you get thirsty, there’s always a cooler full of canned drinks conveniently nearby, courtesy of Cock-a-Doodle-Doo’s. Sometimes you can hear the staff whispering to each other, “What if it’s too perfect? We won’t be able to deal with the ratings dip once the beach ends!”

Seashells have been arbitrarily scattered along the shoreline, coming in both natural shapes and ones a little more... erotic. The sexiest ones of all are conch shells that let you hear the moans of another guest when held up to your ear; supposedly, if you hook up with the person on the other end of the shell, you’ll be extra lucky in the casino for the rest of the summer. All in all, it’s a carefully tailored creation that can be called nothing short of paradise.

THE BEACH BUNNY BARBECUE BONANZA

▷ This booth constantly has smoke billowing out the top and is manned during the entire day by one man – Steve, formerly from reception. It seems this is his punishment duty for be-bathrooming all of the arrivals, last time. Those willing to lend Steve a sympathetic ear will be entreated to bring him water, since the sweltering heat of the booth dries him out like nobody’s business. No matter how characters try to help him, though, a tragedy always occurs and the water always ends up spilled across the sand. That curse really is something, huh?

▷ The signature item at this cookout are the Flamin’ Hop Skewers. Made due to the current overpopulation in the Conservatory, these spicy-sweet — emphasis on the spicy — glazed skewers temporarily grant those who consume them the soul of a rabbit, including their insatiable desire to mate. Any rabbits that resort-goers have formed an attachment with have not been culled, so don’t worry about your precious buns!

▷ The booth also boasts several other exotic meats and vegetables that are considerably safer to eat, for guests who find themselves unable to overcome their attachment. Some of these skewers also feature fruits, including the hybrid ones from the previous gardening collab with the Dizzy Pigeon. Characters are free to revisit any of the Orchard prompts under the Smoky Nectar section of our PREVIOUS TDM.

A SHOW OF STRENGTH

▷ When the projected sun is at its highest, staff members will start bringing out tarps and watermelons, fresh from the gardens. What’s that, you ask? Oh, of course these were donated willingly! What a strange question!

▷ The goal is to smash the watermelon the staff give you until the succulent red fruit inside is splattered all across the tarp, perfect for falling comically into or... eating, if you’re into that. The rules are that you must use your buttocks to do so, and you only get two tries. Successfully cracking open the watermelon on the first try will earn characters a large payout, and if it’s on the second try, a medium payout.

▷ Failing to bust a watermelon at all won’t have any penalties associated with it, and you can always try again tomorrow! In order to keep their watermelon supplies steady for the duration of the beach festivities, the staff do ask that guests attempt this no more than once per day.

DAYDREAM PARASOLS

▷ Every umbrella set up on the sands has two lounge chairs set up underneath it, with a shared table between them. The chairs are padded and oh-so-comfy — sitting in them for too long while another person is present will result in both characters falling into a deep sleep.

▷ While asleep, characters will discover they’re sharing a dream with their umbrella-mate. The dream is always set on the same beach as the waking world, but there are floating clouds and sparkles in a range of pastel colors. Other beachgoers are faceless, if not entirely absent. It’s just the two of you.

▷ Anything the characters think of can drift in and out of the dreamscape, including but not limited to items from home, scary monsters to dramatically rescue your partner from, and strange abilities to fly or float through the air. However, characters will also be at full suit activation in the dream. Once both characters orgasm or they naturally wake up from their naps, they’ll find things are entirely back to normal, as much as they ever are in the resort.

NOTES

▶ All new arrivals have been issued four food and four clothing vouchers. These vouchers are as good as money around the resort. The staff will strongly insist on characters picking out "summery" attire with it, though.

▶ Existing characters may be booted into the bungalows or locked out of their room against their will. We leave it up to player discretion if this happens and the degree to which they're removed from their normal suite.

▶ For the Daydream Parasols, wildcards may be afflicted by whichever suit their player prefers for the duration of the dream. This will have no bearing on their suit selection when applying, and suit effects should not manifest once back in the waking world. It's just a dream, after all!

▶ The dreamscape has no explicit time limit, so feel free to make them as long or as short as desired. Dreams should also be sexy first and foremost. While you can include your mom dying in the background if you'd like, you have to be horny about it too.

TWINKLING CURRENTS

THE PARTY NEVER STOPS

As the sun sets in a cascade of colors over the water, lamps are lit and floating lights surface from the depths. Stars twinkle in the sky, and Steve is finally released from his smoky shackles. Though the daytime amenities have gone to sleep, the night promises its own set of beachy wonders sure to please even the most distinguished of vacationers.

Flyers posted in the lobby and in the hallways promise of a bar ran by the most enchanting mermaids you could ever want to fuck, as well as a fireworks show in every color, including ones you’ve never heard of. With the seagulls gone to bed, peace settles across the sands, tinted blue, yellow, and pink from the myriad of lights. For those seeking a more subdued, romantic air — this is the beach for you.

SWIM UP TO THE BAR

▷ While the advertisements promised mermaids, they were careful not to include any photos or illustrations. Wading out into the sea to the floating bar quickly illustrates why: these merfolk are fish on top, not the bottom! If asked about this configuration or accused of being unsexy, they’ll lift their elegant legs out of the water and exclaim, “How else would you be able to fuck us if not for these!” Though a few guests seem unsatisfied by this clarification, there are no complaints about the drinks themselves.

▷ HOLDING ON TO SUMMER. This cocktail brings seaberry-gin, limoncello, white crème de cacao, and freshly squeezed lemon juice over pebbled ice, wrapping you in decadent flavors accenting the season. Drinking this cocktail can cause you to be overcome with the desire to lean back and sink into the ocean itself, but fret not! It also grants you the wonderful ability to breathe underwater, no gills required! And it’s topped with a yummy little ball of white chocolate.

▷ MANGO STAR. A delightfully bright drink in a highball glass, the combination of elderflower rose syrup and seaberry-gin floats a summery pink over the orange mixture of mango juice, lime juice and honey syrup on the bottom. On top are two cute little stars cut out of mango, accented with mint leaves. Guests who drink this cocktail report some confusion in the identity of other guests, as just one drink is enough to shift perception of others. Other characters may appear to be different guests of the resort, or familiar faces from home.

▷ SEABERRY FLORADORA. This is a vibrant cocktail made of seaberry-gin, ginger beer, lime juice and raspberry syrup, highlighted by floral ice cubes and edible flowers. Despite its bright pink color indicating a level of cheerfulness for the summer, this flavorful cocktail causes guests to be quickly overwhelmed with a sense of loneliness. The longer this sensation goes on, the more guests will try to seek out company to aid in the ache, even if it means appearing quite desperate in the process. Each successive drink will increase the severity of the effect.

▷ BLACKBERRY ROSEMARY GIMLET. Blackberries, rosemary sprigs, simple syrup, and a combination of seaberry-gin and lime juice make this aromatic cocktail. It’s double strained over ice and garnished with a blackberry on a pick, giving it a regal appearance. Drinking this cocktail causes obsessive and possessive behavior, however — sometimes to extreme levels. Should your partner choose this cocktail to drink, you may not want to mention anything that could make them jealous. Each successive drink will increase the severity of the effect.

▷ JUST SOME SEAWATER? Questioning the mermaids and mermen on how they came to be the way that they are will result in them offering you an item off the sea-cret menu. Taking a glass from the bar, they dip it into the ocean and offer it right over to you. Drinking the seawater does, in fact, turn you into a very sexy reverse merman or mermaid. This occurs whether or not you drink it from the glass or take in a gulp while swimming, so watch out!

ACROSS THE NIGHT SKY

▷ Where else could you get a perfect view of the stars? Despite the sea of lights below, the artificial nature of the skies in the resort means that all guests get an unrivaled view of the galaxy. Which galaxy? Why, any of them — characters will see a shifting range of constellations from night to night, including ones they don’t recognize, ones shaped a bit like something you might find in Love Dove, and ones that are identical to those from their home. Happy gazing!

▷ A fireworks show is held every night, from 10PM until 1AM. The noises are just loud enough to block out a whispered confession timed correctly, but aren’t quite enough to inhibit conversation. Most of the fireworks are from a design series known as Matteo’s Masterpieces, and range from the standard burst to abstract shapes to... well, you know. Unlike the sloppy doodles found in the margins of books while Swan Lake was decaying, all of the boobs and dicks blasted across the sky are very well rendered. For fireworks.

SANDY SCAVENGING

INTO THE DEPTHS

IT'S HIGH TIDE WE GET OUT OF HERE

Though the beach experience is perfect on the surface, things are less elegant behind the scenes. Wave-making machines pulse and rattle down below, shaking the ceiling of the basement suites. Water leaks from pipes, streaking across walls and pooling on the uneven floors. The maintenance levels are abuzz with staff setting out buckets and pans, shooing lost guests away with a heightened level of urgency. Someone got a little too enthusiastic with mopping, they claim. Nothing to worry about at all!

Even the ocean itself isn’t without its issues. Despite appearing as a boundless expanse from the shore, the walls of the Golden Peacock are a very real factor. To avoid any undue damage to the screens that comprise the sky, the sea stops abruptly before it reaches them, cascading into a waterfall all the way down to the depths of the resort. Gentle currents become swirling vortexes and choppy waves, sure to pull down any guests that aren’t careful about where they swim. A few gull-guards patrol the line of buoys that mark the end of the safe swimming area, but the primary line of defense the resort relies on is the utter disinterest most of its guests have.

TUMBLING DOWN

▷ Characters who stray past the line of buoys out in the far sea will find themselves caught in a riptide that sucks them straight over the edge of the water. This applies both to characters swimming, or characters in some sort of vessel, such as a small rowboat borrowed from the staff.

▷ Feel free to make up any sort of vehicle rentals in general, as long as they’re reasonable in size — they should be able to accommodate 1-2 characters at most. A waverider would be okay, but a yacht would not.

▷ While falling down the waterfall, characters will temporarily black out before hitting anything solid. They will resurface anywhere there is standing water, whether that be a flooded hallway, in the Crane’s Respite, or even in someone’s open toilet bowl. There are no limitations on where in the resort the resurfacing can happen; even the bathrooms at Roost aren’t safe from this teleportation.

A RISING FLOOD

▷ Drainage is a difficult aspect to manage. Though the majority of the seawater is recycled to maintain the ocean above, enough of it is siphoned off for deeper filtration that the resort’s plumbing systems simply can’t handle the volume. Leaks are happening on all floors below ground, increasing in depth the further down into the basement characters go.

▷ Characters living in the rank 2, 3, and 4 suites may notice that in addition to having leaks in the hallway, their own rooms are also flooding. This can range anywhere from a constant, unpleasantly damp floor, to having an entire cascade of water blow them and any other unsuspecting guests down several hallways the moment their door is opened. Life vests are recommended.

▷ The flooding will intensify as the event goes on, culminating in some of the maintenance levels being entirely underwater towards the end of the event. Once the event is over, the flooding will recede within about a day, leaving only a few water stains here and there as evidence of their presence.

NOTES

▶ Any amount of standing water is a valid target for a character’s resurfacing, even something as minor as a glass of water. For situations where a character would not actively fit into the source of their arrival, they will be violently flung out of it, knocking over or spilling it in the process if that’s possible.

▶ As always, players are free to control the level to which their individual characters are affected, and being flooded out of their space is not mandatory.

( it's annoying, because it's true--he'd been planning on giving bakugou the runaround, just a little, by telling him to go ahead and head up to the doors of his fancy suite and then, there, letting him realize that he wouldn't be able to get them open with dabi there with him. at that point, he'd be long gone, lost somewhere in the resort; and even if bakugou tried to blow his door open, the staff wouldn't let him. but of course, the kid goes and ruins all his fun--which is why he lets out a long sigh, twisting at the middle to turn back towards the bar.

shakily, the bartender sets a glass in front of him--and he lifts a hand to indicate she should make another. )

Pretty sure a person breathing near you pisses you off, firecracker.

( with another roll of his eyes--he lifts up the glass, but rather than drink from it, he gives it a cursory sniff and stretches his arm out, hooking it towards bakugou instead. it smells deceptively sweet: there's at least a few shots of liquor pooled in the bottom.

his fingers grip the glass, shaking it a little, commanding bakugou to take it. )

Drink yours and we'll go. ( on cue, the bartender places another drink there in front of him, one that he intends to keep for himself. ) I bet there's someone here we can relieve of their belongings, rather than going all the way up to my room...

( with an idle smile, half-formed, as he narrows his eyes at him. )

No birds, since apparently you're afraid of 'em.

[blastedass]

I know shit about you!

[one introduction doesn't make anyone less of a stranger! a name, a face, some information, first impression, and now it's up to bakugo to decide if he wants anything else to do with this guy after the meeting. that is the elevation moment from stranger to acquaintance.

even if leona is technically right. is he interested? kind of. if only because the other man's been amiable enough to answer his questions and put up with his temper. bakugo's not stupid to that effort. he deserves consideration.

... it's kinda funny that this lion-like guy's standing there with his tail flicking like a lazy cat. king of the beasts, his as.]

I'll decide who I wanna handle. [not saying it the other way around. hmph! bakugo shoves his hands into his pockets, glancing at the sky.] Bakugo Katsuki, catboy.

[leona's earned that.]

[blastedass]

[right. just how stupid does dabi think he is? he barely trusted him from the start. a tiny truce to avoid taking down a building and killing each other doesn't mean there's anything between them remotely resonating. he knows the man's history and story, even if he speculates it's biased. but the history amid the two of them alone is a sordid thing in itself. there's no way he's going to extend any kind of good faith. even the brief test got blown up the second the villain abandoned him to those shitty seagulls. going forward, any advice or instructions is getting heavily scrutinized.

that long sigh and spin around earns a hard growl behind his stupid flowery shirted shoulders. this patchwork bastard planned on bullshitting him again! just now! damn right he ruined those plans!]

When they're obnoxious about it.

[hint hint. he pauses when the glass swings towards him, eyes narrowing and brows furrowing at the offer. come on. does dabi really think he can keep getting away with this kind of bullshit? that 'command' doesn't go over well either.]

You... [as much as he wants to snap at dabi not to order him around, he's also aware this is a very thin line both of them are toeing. and like it or not, he needs the aid. this man is from his own world. with a snarl, he swipes the drink from the villain's hand. there's something in it. he knows that. alcohol, a drug, anything to make this a bad idea. but dabi says we'll go. if looks could kill, this stitch bitch would be six feet under.

last chance. bakugo glances at the bartender.] Two glasses of water.

[he'll drink, but first, he's gonna be a goody-two-shoes prick about it. meaning one glass of water down the hatch, then the drink-] CUGH! [-he coughs hard and brief, eyes widening and head ducking a bit as his throat works the drink down. he's had sports drinks before, soda, even some cider, but whatever the fuck that was is only somewhat similar. it burns and hits with an impact he can't describe. maybe chugging it wasn't the greatest idea... at least there's a pool of water in there to dilute it?! hopefully?!]

I'm not stealing shit! Go to a store, buy something like a decent person, and I'll pay you back! [does he have to spell this out for him?! it's his first day here; he's not going to turn into a damn criminal. and the second glass of water. it hurts to tank it down, he's gonna piss hard later, but damn if he's not gonna dilute the bar drink as best he can.] I'm not scared of those bastard!

[malpwactice]

[Let it never be said that Aak hesitates after making a bad decision. With his path chosen, he's resolute in offering that arm and heading in the direction Kleken points him.]

Ohh, so they've got you on beachfront property, huh?

[he keeps up his small talk, a little relieved to not be heading all the way back to someone's room within the main resort]

I imagine all the noise and hubbub can't be good for a man recovering from such a trial.

[The tentacles edge closer and closer but Aak's mind is being led astray by the effects of his drink. So, he was in this situation now. That's fine. Don't be a threat and just get yourself under any clout he may have.]

[malpwactice]

Any large-scale distribution is out of the question.

[He says that with the care of someone who has been held to that before.]

But I could certainly share some things with a new acquaintance. The more comfortable I am the quicker I work and the quicker I work the more creative I can get.

[With that said, he'll go and shake that cold hand.]

Deal.

[belialedge]

[ MAN. If Ragna had his weapon here, he'd be making good on that offer right now. It feels like a challenge. ...It is a challenge. One that, there's a good chance he's going to answer since it's been a hot minute since he's had to exercise his own power or work up that old familiar sweat. Not that he wasn't used to working up one in a sex casino of all places by now. ]

Remind me to come track your ass down if you wind up getting shuffled in with the rest of us. I'll gladly put a punk like you to sleep.

[ Time to stick a pin in that little tussle for the time being. ]

Whaaat? That? [ He snorts despite Bakugo's inflection goading him into a reaction. This is one of those instances where his own form of retaliation was sheltering his own ego. ...What's left of it, anyway. God, this world and its people really have softened you up a bit, haven't they, Mr. Grim Reaper? ] Please. If you hadn't shown up, they'd be a pile of poultry and feathers right about now.

[ ... "Thank you, Mr. Hero". FDSLKAJ ]

Can't say I blame them. Humans by nature fear the unknown, whether what's coming is a good or bad thing. Where I'm from, you still got certain people being treated as less than second-class citizens and they didn't do a damn thing besides exist.

[emyoji]

[ There's a sharp possessive feeling that surrounds Seimei as he feels Eiden's body tighten around him, shuddering with the pulsing of being filled and stroked until he finally bucks his hips and spills come and essence between them. Seimei grins, teeth showing a hint of fangs as he pulls Eiden closer, his arms keeping him held down on his cock and restrained so he can't lift himself up. Instead of letting him rest and slow the release of essence, however, Seimei's magic continues to tease his prey. The invisible vines wrap tighter, manhandling Eiden's thighs so that he's rubbing Seimei inside him, hips rocking and wet mouths licking the sensitive nipples that are already overstimulated.

The kiss the fox gives him is deliberately slow and sensual, a tangle of their tongues and almost gentle caress of lips as he keeps teasing Eiden's cock well past his orgasm, faint but steady, holding him so that he can't pull away. ]

That's good... Keep moving just like that. Give me all of your essence.

[ He licks the edge of Eiden's lips as if he can taste the essence on his skin, feeding on it through the high of his arousal and release. He kisses him again, pressing soft affection and whispered words against Eiden's lips. ]

Do you want to be mine? You can tell me.

[silicone]

[ eiden is dizzy with sensation, his own essence pulsing, feeding into the other. it's not at all like the last time someone tried to forcibly take it—he's giving it in the way he gives it to his clan members, willingly. so he falls into the tight embrace of the invisible vines keeping him speared on seimei's cock.

the mouths are... a menace. one licking up the side of his throat and making him cry out, the others on his nipples that almost ache with attention.

seimei kisses him and he whines, wanting to touch him, to wrap around him. he follows his lips, breath soft and fast as the question is posed. his eyes close and he whimpers.

the words scratch just the right itch, drunk on sensation he finally manages: ]

Mm—mmhm— [ the soft words, the affection, eiden basks in it, feeling like he's sinking sinking sinking but in the best way. ] Make me yours—I wanna...

[ he doesn't know seimei's secret, but he has instincts, and being bred like this has him baring his throat to him immediately. ]

[noholdsbard]

[ IT’S FINE HE’S A PROFESSIONAL THIS WAS ALL ON PURPOSE!!!!

Ritsuka help— ]

I—I can explain. You see, I would’ve shielded you with my body and—oooh, I’ve it now, haven’t I?

[ Oh no, is she gonna step on him??? Anything but that…

But he’s in full dogeza mode anyway because wow that was embarrassing and she is lucky to have survived him getting her a drink.

Not that he even succeeded at that, but still. ]

Oh I am so terribly saddened! Please forgive me my la—no, I don’t deserve forgiveness. Punish me instead, I beg of you!!

[molotovmoustache]

[The tone the other takes when faced with a ridiculous assertion delivers the very levity Baptiste had been searching for. Even as his face is released and he watches the vampire before him squirm in frustration...

Catharsis. It almost makes up for the taste of blood that lingered in his mouth.]

Right... Right. I wanted to kiss you- [Surprisingly matter-a-fact for a man who was just questioning this moments ago.] I sort of still do but-

[He reaches upward to touch at some of the blood that has collected at his chin when Charlie points at it. He brushes his fingertips together. Red, sticky liquid smears further into the divots of his flesh.]

I'm just usually not such a messy guy. Are you into freaky stuff? [One blink. Two blinks. He gestures at the other with bloody fingers as if he weren't the one most likely to be into 'freaky stuff' in this situation.

The spinning in his head stills as he watches the man- no the vampire in front of him. Curious to see just what this creature would do next. Would he try to leave now that his hunger had been sated? Would there be an attempt to regain the sense of control he'd confident held moments ago?]

[blastedass]

[What, does the big bad man in a red coat need a weapon to fight properly? Excuse the meta for taunting him. Of course it's a damn challenge! Bakugo doesn't take any threat to him without retorting back at it! If it means shoving Ragna back into place and kicking his ass to get that superiority across, then damn right he'll do it! Not like throwing down with a strong opponent ever failed to excite him. Unless they're being obnoxious about it... (Look who's talking.)]

I'm not reminding you for shit. If you show up, I'll fucking slaughter you.

[Don't put the onus of this tussle on him! He'll start and finish the fight!]

HA! You weren't even landing a hit before I dropped in! [Then he got his ass into gear and owned the sea chickens! Don't think Bakugo didn't notice that, Mr. I Can Handle Myself. Though considering what he saw Ragna do, it's kind of a given the guy didn't need any help. Real question is why it took him that long to bust out his power. Maybe he was lazy... or liked the attention.

Ew.]

Hmph. We might not have that same ideology in the cities and urban areas, but one of my classmates came from a rural village where that kind of discrimination still exists.

[Shouji was almost killed as a child due to his Quirk.]

[astrolabium]

My name is Mona Megistus, meaning the 'Great Astrologist Mona'. It isn't quite a violation of privacy if this is what we astrologists do, is it?

[ Fuuta's hesitance, how he seems to avoid her gaze, is not an unusual reaction. While Mona may feel divination is a skill as natural as breathing, others often think a stranger having the ability to discern personal information as unnerving. She understands that; it's natural.

Will it stop her from spooking others? Probably not. Mona simply dislikes being underestimated. ]

Uncovering the truth is one of my specialties, [ she continues, even going so far as to offer a small smile. ] But you don't have to fret. I won't pry unless you give me a reason to. Refrain from causing any trouble and it will be alright.

[ She waves her hand and dispels the Hydro disk. ]

Usually, I only divine the fate of others if they request me to.

[cartographie]

[ Telling her – some part of Nami that's not lost to the dream or how her suit's calling all the shots and keeping her honest wants to bristle, feeling almost like a long unneeded reflex that fizzles out before it can begin. ]

I'm not used to hearing it. [ Her chin rests against his chest when she lifts her head to watch his face, the beat of her heart jumping up just half as those words leave her mouth. ] There's my crew, but that's different. [ A bond apart and above almost anything and everything else. Something that hurts to think about being away from, so she pointedly doesn't, her eyes creasing just at the corners instead, adopting more of a challenging expression than the open honesty of seconds ago. ]

Does that mean I get to keep telling you how much I like it and get you used to hearing it too?

[ratratrat]

[What Charlie receives is a response, not an answer - he regards the bloodied man with slowly narrowing eyes. A moment ago, they were blood and teeth, and now he can't focus on the sticky-sweet red lining Baptiste's lips.

He's too incredulous.

Charlie's mouth hangs open - a moment of fucking silence as he tries and fails to process what this guy is asking for. Quiet doesn't help him one bit. His lips purse, flesh battered but not swollen.] Me? Am I? You kissed me, and you bit me!

Now you're askin me-? No.

You want to kiss me, but you stopped. You want to be into messy shit? You want me to be into messy shit? [A beat. His tongue flicks over his molars.]

Are you askin for my permission? Late, but sure. You wanna bite, [He makes a biting pantomime with his hand.] -then bite. [and points at his lip. It'd be easy for Baptiste to do, Charlie's leaning close enough to smell the vitae cooling between them. But rather than eager or hungry, he looks... plussed.]

[ratratrat]

[There was no plan in Charlie's mind, saddling up next to this man at the bar, beyond a conversation partner. He's gotten what he initially set out for in the interaction - but he's leaning towards Sherwood anyway, shoulder brushing into the taller man's chest.

While the 'sunk cost fallacy' approach does indeed usually work on Charlie, this is something else.

Greed.

To experience the man in his own haven is enticing. A temptation Charlie sees no reason to resist.] Sure... it sounds like you're treatin me.

[He stands, sliding himself more firmly across Sherwood's chest. The contact doesn't linger, but he spares a glance up to the man with a devious sort of eagerness before stepping back from the bar.

Hand still in hand, he waits one stride away, ready to be led.]

[asixthsense]

[Natsume blinked as a skewer of meat is suddenly waved in front of him. It smelled delicious. He'd gotten creative with the sheer robe he'd woken up in, folding it over in a way that it looked more like a somewhat short skirt with the sash as a firmly-tied belt.

He took the yakitori with a little smile at the boy that was offering it.]

It can't be all that bad when it smells this good, can it?

[So he hopes, anyway. He's at least figured out he's not trapped on the floating city, so surely the food isn't a trap, right? Right?? He's gonna wait til the other guy takes a bite first...]

[belheir]

I'm sure the taste is great. It's the after-effects that might make you regret it.

[Which is to say.... Kazuya is not going to be taking the first bite. Like hell he's getting stuck with a hard on and an intense need to fuck with someone who looks new.

Though if this guy isn't... ]

You a new face? Or just someone I haven't seen before?

[asixthsense]

[Natsume's taking note that the other guy doesn't seem to be taking the lead, here. Coward.]

Both, probably. This doesn't seem to be part of the sky city I was trapped in. At least, I don't remember there being a resort like this. But it sounds like the food could be the same, in which case I've built up some tolerance to that sort of thing.

[Raising an eyebrow that has a bit of challenge behind it, Natsume takes a decisive bite off the end of the skewer. The way he sees it, anything edible here could have the same chance of after-effects. He can't just go hungry.]

Ah! It's... spicy.

[belheir]

No sky-city here that I'm aware of.

[But he is sort of surprised to hear that the food might be the same, and that he might have some tolerance to it? Is there seriously somewhere else like the resort out there in the multiverse that kidnaps people and drugs them and forces them to have sex?

That's seriously messed up.]

From what I know, none of us can even get outside of the hotel, even if it feels like the outdoors in some areas.

[But... Well, this guy ate some, but now he's a little worried. What if this guy does have a tolerance for aphrodisiacs? What if he's the one who ends up with the awkward boner???

The skewer remains, for the moment, uneaten. Coward.]

[emyoji]

Too hot?

[ Once they are out of range of the lurking shadows and leaving behind the powder of snow--beautiful as it is--Seimei relaxes, smiling more affectionately at Weiss as he carries her to what he thinks must be safety. Surely the creature from his nightmares won't follow them this far inland, where the water has no reach. He's pretty sure even if it managed to lurch ashore he could protect her, but he'd rather just hide them away.

Besides, it's much more pleasant to spoil her instead. ]

Is there any way I can help you, Hime-sama? Let me cool you. I don't want you to be uncomfortable even in a dream.

[ When they finally make their way to a bungaloo--which apparently also followed them into the beach dream--Seimei sets Weiss onto the bed inside, kneeling down in front of her and taking her hand in his so he can kiss the back. His lips, as promised, are unusually cool, pressing a light chill against her skin instead of heat. ]

Is that better?

[emyoji]

[ Seimei doesn't miss a beat, taking advantage of the moment to catch Charlie's light stumble and press closer to him. Under the guise of support, he's able to move his arm from Charlie's shoulders to his waist, walking with him as if he thinks the other man might trip again.

He goes along willingly with the suggestion as well, letting Charlie lead them to the semi-privacy of the cabana and following him right to the recliner. If he were more polite he might take the open one, but instead he sits at the edge of the one Charlie chooses, running his hand idly over his side. ]

Would you like a massage? Or did you have some other way to relax in mind?

[asixthsense]

[Kazuya has no idea.]

Hmm... That's going to be a problem for me, then. My contract wasn't up yet, and I need to find a way back before they realize I've gone missing. Or at least find my terminal so I can try to contact someone I know.

[He isn't showing any immediate signs of being affected by anything... Maybe the food was safe after all.]

I'm Natsume, by the way.

[loosestrifes]

( Kicked his ass, huh. Esikko just smiles as he thinks about that. He wishes it were that simple, wishes his body allowed for that sort of strength. But he decides not to comment, instead letting his eyes wander through the place as he trails after Bakugo, idly pausing to glance at a few of the beach themed pictures hanging on the walls. )

Well, I know that one person watching two others counts...

( He draws that out in thought as he walks, abandoning the silly little picture of a seagull and a surfboard to continue his path. His eyes find the back of Bakugo's head, studying his reaction. )

But aside from that, I can't say for certain I know the exact line. I could safely assume just watching would work, if you're really so afraid of my touch.

[silicone]

[ the words are beyond encouraging, and eiden lets out a choked off cry as he comes between the two of them. he squeezes down hard on sylvain's cock inside of him, moving with him, keeping his pace, hungry and ferocious. as the angle shifts, the sensation of his orgasm heightens, rolling through his body, and he can feel how his essence flares up, a dazed smile on his lips as he kisses sylvain again locks his legs tight and fast around him to grind hard on him. ]

Just like that... I can feel every fucking bit of you. Stay right there... Lemme have it all. Go ahead...

[ biting his lower lip and arching - ]

Please... Gimme... All of it, Sylvain. I want you to let go.

[ earnest, soft. ]

[wray]

[ Their bodies slot together nicely, something Six would normally take issue with, but right now, he's content to keep her close like this. When he hums thoughtfully, she's sure to feel it against her skin. ]

Are you speaking from experience?

[ That seems terribly specific, in his eyes. ]
