TDM 04

[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.

Comments

[schmisse]

Probably stuff people dropped in the beach.

[ Thank you for making space though, Hilda! Weiss takes a seat with enough space between them so she can set the bag down. She's quick to hand over the other five feathers now - a product of their A+ teamwork - before rummaging through the bag contents, pulling each item out one after the other. ]

A fork, a comb, a condom... [ At least it's still in the box. ] No sunglasses or sandals, though. But you can have these if you want it, even if they're not for the game.

[ She thought they might be useful in the heat of the moment! But as she looks at the stuff now, she realises there's nothing here that she truly wants. With that, she takes her sunglasses off—conveniently perched on top of her head while she was undergoing that mission—folds it closed and hands it to the other girl. ]

Here. This is for you.

[ Please let her keep her sandals, Hilda... ]

[theidlemaiden]

[ Their hard-earned feathers are quickly tucked away for safe keeping (where? In her swimsuit top since there isn't anywhere else to put them considering she'd left her things behind at her sunbed) before she turns her attention to their other accidental prizes.

The comb seems clean enough save for a couple of blonde hairs in it. Thankfully those can easily be picked out. The fork and the condom however - well, if the welcome memo had been any indication, the latter would probably come in handy. Probably. Although if she's being honest sex is the last thing on her mind when she's trying to avoid being publicly spanked. ]

You never know when you'll need a comb. Not to mention my hair is probably going to be a mess after today. Wait - [ For a moment she blinks as if confused by the offered sunglasses. ] really? But these look so good on you. They really accentuate your eyes. I wouldn't want to take those away. I don't even know your name!

[schmisse]

[ You never know when you might need to eat spaghetti, Hilda. ]

The beach does that... you can at least have a relaxing bath after today. Make sure you use ample conditioner so that your hair will be as smooth as it should be once you're out of there.

[ She supports your haircare needs! Weiss has quite a lot of it, especially when it goes all the way down to her knees when it's completely down. With it tied up in a braid, it only reaches her butt. ]

It's okay. I did promise to give it to you in case you need it. I can get another pair. [ That wasn't a flex. ] As for my name, it's Weiss. Weiss Schnee.

[ And with that, she gives a nod of acknowledgement. She'd be curtsying right about now if she were standing. ]

I'm sorry I called you Cerise. I had to think of a name on the spot.

[theidlemaiden]

[ No, you know what, you're right. Or stab someone with it. Who knows what she's going to find on the third floor?

Weiss' real advice is met with an appreciative smile even if it's followed by a somewhat deflated sigh. ]

To be honest, this isn't how I envisioned my first time at the beach. I would have loved something a little more relaxing.

[ "A little" really means "a lot". So far her track record with beaches has been 0 for 2. When will she catch a break? There'll be more time to lament later though. Introductions are happening! And they're both in the same boat with curtseying if they were standing. A smile blooms on her face as she reluctantly accepts the sunglasses. ]

Oh, don't be sorry, Weiss. That was some really quick thinking - I'm impressed! I'm Hilda Goneril. I really appreciate you helping me. [ Her gaze flits down to the sunglasses. ] You didn't have to.

why is hilda so cute... i am gonna die

[schmisse]

[ To be fair, there are a lot of "first times" one wouldn't envision while in this place. Weiss gets it, though! While she isn't a beach type of gal, she at least knows what most people come to the beach for. (Not fighting, that's for sure... even if she did get into a battle at the beach once, too.) ]

It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Hilda. Thanks for helping me, too.

[ Now she doesn't have to get publicly spanked! Since that's all she needs though, she figures she should submit everything before time's up for her. It doesn't sit right with her to up and leave now that she's done, though. ]

Hm... I could lend you my sandals and kiss you on the cheek so you can leave the game behind, if you like. I'll just need those back because I don't like walking on my bare feet afterwards. That way, you can just go around the beach and relax.

if you die we die together because of the cuteness from weiss

[theidlemaiden]

[ Hilda would be willing to give the beach another shot after this. But there can't be any creepy birdmen in sight. The weird mermaids can stay. At the rate things are going though she might very well just be a poolside girl. It would be a big shame not to wear cute swimsuits after all.

Her gaze snaps up from the sunglasses, widening a little in surprise. ]

You'd really do that? I was just going to see if there were any sandals that were left on the beach and take those. I definitely don't want you to have to walk around in bare feet if you don't have to.

[ Hilda's smile warms. ]

But I wouldn't say no to a kiss. Especially from someone as pretty as you.

rip to both of us, pinky toes linked as we are buried

[schmisse]

Sure. It's not a big deal. The less work the better, right?

[ Hilda hasn't done anything to merit Weiss' brattier side; she'll help as much as she can!

She's reminded of the time she once met someone now close to her here. She had to go barefoot for that person too, and she'd like to think that person has become one of her most trusted friends in this resort. Hopefully she can make more friends, even if she'd prefer to be back home. ]

While I appreciate the compliment, I hope you know that you're just as pretty. [ ... cute. There's an elegance to her that isn't anything like what Weiss is used to; not like her sister, not like her, but Hilda just seems so pleasant that she can't help but be endeared by her. ] Do you want to close your eyes for me?

[theidlemaiden]

[ The resort will be better for it if both their bratty sides never come out at the same time to wreck havoc. Or maybe it would be more fun — who knows? 

Joint brattiness aside, the last thing she wants is to have another cute girl walk around bare foot when she didn’t want to. It’s a small act of kindness but one that manages to surprise her. It might have to do with being away from home and everything that comes with that, but even if that is making her more sensitive to kindness, that doesn’t make it any less sincere. ] 

I better make sure that I find those other pair of sandals quickly then. 

[ As for the pretty compliment — ]

We’ll see if you still think that after I’ve been here a few days without all my skin care. 

[ Amusement glints in her eyes at the request. ]

Don’t tell me you’re shy over a little cheek kiss!

[ But a moment later her eyes flutter closed. …She’ll definitely be peeking when Weiss kisses her though. ]

[schmisse]

I'm sure that'll be easy to find.

[ They're just sat here but there's a bunch of other chairs around. Surely someone who has decided to go swimming would have left their sandals on one of the chairs! ]

And you don't know that! I'm sure you're just as lovely.

[ They're going to have a compliment-off at this rate. Weiss' ego just keeps getting bigger and bigger, until... ]

Oh! Well... [ It's not like she's shy about kissing anyone, especially if it's just a cheek kiss, but it felt nice to say. Not at all romantic given the situation, but if they're telling each other they're pretty then that sort of thing felt like something she should be saying.

Weiss doesn't really feel the need to defend herself though. Hilda does as she asks. With the other girl's eyes closed? Weiss actually does start to feel shy. The effect of Hilda's words seem to be rather strong, but she does inch closer and closer until her leg bumps into Hilda's as she presses a peck on her cheek. Her own eyes are closed, the long white curly lashes fluttering only open as once she's drawn away. ]

There you go.

[theidlemaiden]

[ Hilda could easily get into a compliment-off. It's one of the few fights that she'd willingly get into if it was with someone that she liked or someone that she felt particularly inclined to try and tease. And really, who didn't love a little butt patting now and again?

Even when Weiss' leg bumps against hers Hilda stays remarkably still, her own lashes fluttering slightly as she waits for the feel of Weiss' lips against her cheek. When she feels the faint breath on her cheek, she cracks open an eye just a bit, a hint of a smile still plays on her face. Her Watch trills out, signaling another item has been successfully crossed off her list.

It's only then that she opens both of her eyes, a hand going to brush sweetly across Weiss' cheek. ]

Thank you, Weiss. Hopefully I'll be able to repay the favour at some point.

[schmisse]

I'm glad to help.

[ Sure, it was a little embarrassing and all, but still! People have to stick together here one way or another. And it's not like Weiss was being asked to do anything crazy, so! There. ]

If you really want to repay me, you can treat me to some frozen yoghurt when you have some extra chips.

wrap soon? 💕

[theidlemaiden]

[ Weiss’ request is met with a nod. Hlida’s uncertainty about whether or not she’ll be here tomorrow goes left unsaid and she’s glad that the other young woman doesn’t seem any wiser about the tight knot in her chest. ] 

I’ll do that. 

[ And with that settled she stands up’s, gathering everything in her arms. ] 

Shall we go turn things in? I’m sure I can find some sandals between here and wherever it is we have to go. That way you won’t have to walk too far barefoot for me. 

yes! ✨

[schmisse]

[ It is unfortunate, but Weiss believes that no one can get out of this place fully. As long as they find themselves here, then they're here whether as a player or a wildcard— ones who never actually check in. If Hilda ever disappears after today, Weiss would think she got sent to what levels are lower than the basement. Hell ]

Right. It's best to finish before time runs out.

[ No spanking for both of them!

Weiss looks down at her sandals then back at Hilda. Right - she should get these off first before getting up. One strap is unravelled after the other, and then she holds the sandals up by them as she stands up. Yup, she's... definitely a lot shorter now. Two inches shorter. Hilda is practically a tower. ]

Shall we?

[ With her sandals now with Hilda, Weiss has to do her best and not complain about the sand on her feet. It's not so bad! Just a lot warmer than she's used to. If her feet get dirty, she can just clean it up, it's not a big deal. She'll have to use lots of lotion later, though.

There is thankfully a reception booth that ISN'T manned by Gilbert and his friends. Who knows if they would be suspicious of these two girls for the missing items in their tower! Any sandals they find along the way are picked up (not stolen), and Weiss puts hers back on. Claiming any rewards is done smoothly as the chips are transferred right away.

All in all, it was a successful mission! Weiss has no qualms about how things went. . . And they didn't have to tackle anybody! ]
