TDM 06

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

On behalf of the house and resort, we would like to advise all Game 52 players to exercise caution around the Golden Peacock for the next few weeks. The veil between 'what is' and 'what has been' grows thin and the threads of fate have tangled in unexpected ways. We are currently observing how these two phenomena behave when they occur simultaneously and act in concert.

We advise that all guests monitor their physical states until the veil thickens once again and the threads of fate return to running parallel. If you find yourself undergoing any strange transformations, please report to the Broken Wing clinic for observation. We will do our utmost to make sure you are comfortable during this time.

You may also notice other strange phenomena around the Golden Peacock while the veil is thin. Please continue to exercise caution. New wayward spirits have joined us during this time. While spirits are crossing, it is possible for guests to get swept along into the ghostly realm.

As always, please let us know if there is anything we can do to improve your stay. 】

HEADS

BASEMENT SUITES

SQUEEZING IN ► Thanks to a classic move called “overbooking,” new arrivals are being checked in to the rooms that have the most overall vacancies — the basement suites. Despite their small size and narrow twin beds, characters are stuffed up to three in a room. Don’t worry, that’s why the staff have thoughtfully removed the doors of every new arrival's room. It's easier to stuff inside that way, isn't it? More space for everyone!

► Characters still wake up naked save for a robe, as is standard for the Golden Peacock. This round’s robes are warm autumnal plaids made of thick flannel to help keep warm through the supernatural chill. Some of these robes are more elaborate than others, with seasonal patterns like apples or pumpkins.

► Existing characters currently living in a basement suite may find one or two new arrivals taking up residence in their room. The staff appreciate your understanding and willingness to share during this influx of new guests and spike of supernatural activity! There's safety in numbers. It's to everyone's benefit, really.

ICY HALLWAYS ► The normally dirty and forgotten hallways of the basement suites are in even worse shape than usual. Yellow stains ripple down the walls, the floor is coated in dust, and there are suspicious globs of something in the corners. Their standard chilly temperature has taken a sharp plunge to freezing. Guests without any resistance to cold will find it challenging to walk around the hallways without bundling up. For those that don't have the proper clothing, the staff suggest sharing some body heat and fucking to make do. They probably shouldn't have removed all those room doors, huh...

► Don't even talk about going out and about without shoes! Stepping in one of those gloopy puddles may unexpectedly trigger a fever or other similar illness. As time passes and the supernatural grows stronger, these goopy masses will crawl the walls and drip from the ceiling. As they grow stronger, so will the physical reaction to touching them. Guests may experience any of the CLUBS effects when the sludge is especially potent.

► When walking in any of the basement suite hallways, characters may hear the ghostly whispers from the maintenance levels. They are stronger than usual and can be heard on even the rank 3 and rank 4 floors. What's more, these whispers, if directed at a particular guest, can be heard by everyone in the vicinity. Whispers may provoke, accuse, and guilt characters by targeting their insecurities or regrets. These whispers will slowly turn to screams the closer the date creeps toward October 31st.

COMMUNAL BATHROOM GHOULS ► The ghouls in particular start becoming audacious as supernatural influence strengthens. A pesky group of water ghouls have marked the basement communal bathroom as their territory. Characters who seem particularly vulnerable or aren't paying attention to their surroundings may find themselves cornered by water ghouls in the showers. The ghouls are relentless, pushing and shoving and pulling hair for shits and giggles. 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 and 2s.

► Some especially raunchy water ghouls have taken to haunting the toilets, showers, and baths. The toilet ghouls have especially long tongues, which they stick out to get a lick of some unsuspecting ass. The bath ghouls, the most attractive of the lot, pretend to be guests and try to lure new arrivals and low ranks into a clandestine affair. The shower ghouls hide and outstretch their arms to shamelessly grab and squeeze whatever their grubby claws can touch.

► Despite the bravado, these water ghouls are not very strong and can be easily dealt with. They will run if someone overpowers them. They will flinch and hide if someone screams too loudly. And, most importantly, they're absolutely terrified of dry towels. They're supposed to be wet, damn it! Don't threaten them with being dry. Aiming a hair dryer at them is enough to get them curled on the ground in agony.

TAILS

BROKEN WING CLINIC

THE MORGUE ► Did we mention that we had some overbooking? Some unfortunate new arrivals won't be waking up in the basement suites with their peers. These guests, with a stroke of bad luck, will find themselves waking up in the morgue of the Broken Wing clinic. The morgue has never seen a real dead body before — so when waking up on morgue tray sliders, they thankfully won't be assaulted by any rancid smells.

► New arrivals waking up in the morgue will be covered with a white sheet. They will also be dressed in a standard white hospital gown, each of their big toes tagged with a cause of death. These causes of death, however, all seem to be a bit unusual. They range from 【 DIED AFTER SIX CONSECUTIVE ORGASMS, ABSOLUTE KING 】 to 【 DIED OF LITERAL EMBARRASSMENT, WHAT A DORK 】... it's not like the doctor expected you to see them!

► Some especially unlucky guests will find that the door to their tray slider is locked. The keys to all of the tray sliders, as well as several mortuary tools, are available around the room for those that are kind enough to lend these poor souls a helping hand! It's just a matter of finding them. The desk and tool areas of the morgue are shockingly messy, as if the doctors and nurses left in a rush. Wonder why that is?

ABANDONED CLINIC ► Exploration of the clinic will yield some interesting results. Despite reception advising that those affected by the veil thinning should report to the clinic for observation, Broken Wing is completely void of any medical staff. The hallways are in ruin. Cabinets with medical files are empty. The beds have no patients. Even the air is musty. Broken Wing appears to have been abandoned for a long time.

► A small stroke of good luck — even if the doctors are gone, medical and general supplies can still be found scattered throughout the clinic. Guests can utilize staff clothing if they don't want to run around in those open-back hospital gowns. Over the counter medicines and bandages are available. Guests that may have had their eye on the harder prescription stuff can take this opportunity to scrounge through the clinic's pharmacy, now that there is no pharmacist to guard the goods.

► As exciting as a clinic free for all is, guests should be careful...

WALKING UNDEAD

Loud noises echo from the clinic's basement. Thud, thud, thud — heavy footsteps resound through the otherwise eerie silence. Muffled voices come in strange breaks, as if the speakers are having difficulty moving their mouths. Slowly, from around the corners and up the stairs, a group of long-standing guests drag their bodies awkwardly toward the sounds and warmth of any "living" guests in the clinic. Blue lips gape. Their skin is waxy and strange. They stare with red and yellow eyes. Then, slowly, they begin to drag their bodies forward...

► Zombified long-standing guests have been lurking in the clinic. These zombies are hungry for flesh in all meanings of the word. Some want one, some want the other, and some want both. Though they move slowly and have little control over their dead appendages, they are relentless, and will chase any non-zombie guests through the clinic.

► However, these zombies will not leave Broken Wing. Leaving the clinic is akin to a safe getaway. Those that want to fight will find that these zombies are fairly traditional: destroying their heads will kill them.

► A bite or scratch from a zombie is a potent aphrodisiac. The guest that is bitten or scratched will similarly begin to hunger for flesh... mostly in the horny way, but if you want to play it in the hungry way, we support you. Guests will not transform into zombies from a bite or scratch. The aphrodisiac will continue to burn through their system until sexual satisfaction is achieved. Going without "the cure" with result in fever, hallucinations, chills, muscle pain, and other extremely uncomfortable symptoms.

MAIN LOBBY

THE VEIL THINS

A STRANGE MOON & ENDLESS NIGHT ► Darkness pervades the main lobby despite clocks claiming that morning hours have come. The grand chandeliers and fixtures are not working, so staff hurry to light lanterns around the central hub and connecting hallways. A strange full moon floats in the center of the lobby. This moon hovers silently, always staying close to the high ceiling, and never changes its phase even when passing days begin accumulating.

► Those that bask in the pale light of the moon for too long may begin to feel an itch of strangeness... this itch will go away once farther from the moon. Once a guest basks in the moonlight, they might feel the overwhelming urge to continue doing so. It's inexplicable how this gentle moonlight feels like it can help them become their true self.

► An endless night will continue to accompany the moon. This night covers the entire main lobby, front reception, the elevator bank, and several hallways that deposit into the lobby. While the endless night is in play, all affected areas will feel the cool breeze and unique weight of a genuine deep night. Unlike the weather and time simulations offered in the garden and vale, this night is poignantly real despite happening indoors.

THE ROOKERY SETTLES DOWN

The Rookery, the elusive wandering night market, settles down beneath the moon in the main lobby. Construction of wooden stalls takes no time at all, offering a proper shopping experience compared to their usual tents and makeshift sheets. The sellers of the Rookery are more lively than usual, their ghostly faces illuminated by the light of the moon. They aggressively boast about their wares and try to hook customers over to their booths.

► Worthwhile treasures to be found in the Rookery. Truly useful items worth haggling for.

WOODEN MASKS: Charmed wooden masks that allow the wearer to blend in seamlessly with the supernatural. Come in fox, wolf, and tanuki styles.

MAGIC TALISMANS: An assortment of talismans with elemental capabilities. A snap of fire, a dash of light, a flash of ice, and so on. Useful in a pinch.

WARDING INCENSE: A lovely scent of Jasmine that keeps the ghosts and annoying exes away. Calms even the ghosts in the basement and maintenance levels.

ZOMBIE PILLS: Another cure for the symptoms to the above Zombie bite, found under our TAILS prompt above. Will completely cure the bitten party. Unfortunately, these pills must be administered rectally.

GHOST BELL: Helps the living find a wayward ghost. Particularly useful for finding those that have been separated from their bodies when getting mixed in to the ghosts crossing.

HOLY WATER: Burns the flesh of demonic and monstrous entities. Also clears the skin of any blemishes.

► Cursed treasures to be found in the Rookery. Scam artists boldly lie about how these items are blessed despite knowing full well that they're not.

BLACK CANDLE: Burn this candle and make a wish, it will come true. In actuality, the wish will be fulfilled but in the worst way possible, a la the classic monkey's paw. It also smells bad, like cheeto feet.

BLESSED TUNIC: A tunic that will ward off any attacks from the living or the dead. In actuality, this tunic does keep people away ... but only because it makes the wearer smell pungently of body odor.

VIAL OF POWER: A draught guaranteed to improve your strength and make you more appealing, sexually. In actuality, all this liquid does is make the drinker gassy. Best guarantee is that you'll fart every three steps.

LUCKY PENNY: A significant increase in luck! Technically true... but in actuality, the luck is bad luck. Small things, like stubbing your toe or saying the wrong thing at the wrong time.

A REAL SOLID GOLD RING: An exquisite piece from the ancient ages, made of pure gold that holy virgin priestesses wore when bathing in celestial light. Fake ass ring made of tinfoil. Makes your finger green.

1000 YEAR OLD WINE: The most delicious wine to ever exist! Coveted by emperors and gods alike! Tastes okay, and the alcohol content is high, but changes the drinker's voice into an embarrassing high pitch that cracks often. Also, can potentially make your ass hair grow long. Like, really long.

► Plenty of junk, knickknacks, and used clothing can also be found for reasonable prices. The sellers in the Rookery prefer to trade but will take chips since they're in such a good mood thanks to the influx of yin energy.

BACK HALLWAYS & STAIRS

OUT OF SERVICE

A LONELY GHOST (EASY MODE) ► While the moon is full in the main lobby, the elevators are out of order. Staff will ask guests to kindly use the stairs and, due to the urgency of the situation, allow them to use the special back hallways usually exclusive to staff. Back hallways have the ability to traverse great distances in the stretch of an average hallway. The downside is that these back hallways and all the stairs around the main lobby are plunged into the darkness of the moon's endless night. While there are candles, their light doesn't travel very far.

Well. That isn't the only downside.

► Though there are numerous wayward spirits passing through, one stubborn ghost sticks around to haunt the hallways and stairs. The lonely ghost takes on the appearance of a charming young man or woman before approaching guests to ask, "Am I pretty? Will you kiss me?" A negative response will result in continued persistence and sobbing while a positive result will result in frenzied joy.

► No matter the form the lonely ghost is taking, when it steps forward to try and initiate a kiss, its mouth will trisect open and unfurl several slimy tubes. Even with this hideous transformation its eyes will glitter with adoration and hope as it leans in for a passionate smooch... it can't help that it was born this way! It just wants love too!

► The ghost will chase would-be lovers through the hallways, a la Scooby Doo. However, escaping the lonely ghost isn't difficult, and it will change targets when it spots someone else to pursue.

A LONELY MONSTER (INTENSE MODE)

...drip... drip... drip...
► In the deepest corridors and the darkest corners lurks another creature. It scuttles across the ceiling, dripping slime from its maw and curled tentacles, waiting for unsuspecting guests to pass by with delightful anticipation. This tentacled monster is more aggressive than the lonely ghost, looking to snatch up anyone it can find and steal them away to its sticky nest. This monster is greedy and willing to snatch up as many guests as it possibly can.

► This tentacle creature is extremely fast and aggressive. It will chase its prey through the hallways with incredible speed. Its flesh is difficult to pierce, though not impossible. Bloody it up enough and it'll scuttle away to tend to its wounds before heading back out again looking for prey.

► However, this monster isn't looking to eat its captured victims. No, no, no. Stop crying, beloved captured prey. It just so happens to be this monster's breeding season. The lonely monster will use its tentacles to pleasure its captured prey and, potentially, lay its eggs inside particularly suitable guests. Don't worry — if you like tentacles but not so much the eggs, this monster is particular about the mother(s) of its monster cubs. It won't take anyone. Only those that especially catch its eye.

► Not that there will be any monster cubs. Unfortunately, this tentacle monster really needs another tentacle monster to properly raise a family. Any guests imbued with eggs will be left to shit them out. Thankfully, they're on the small side.

THE ELEVATORS Wait... weren't the elevators out of order?

► Throughout the next few weeks there will be clear signs and posts around the elevator bank that the elevators are not currently in service and that guests should use the back hallways and stairs. However, at random times, the elevators will appear to be fully functional. Their doors will slide open in front of guests, emitting an inviting glow out into the darkness. The door will remain open until someone steps inside.

► Any guests brave enough to ignore all of the classic horror movie signs that these elevators are possessed as hell will be locked inside once the door closes. A childish giggle rings inside before the elevator plunges into darkness and everything jerks wildly. Elevators will play the classic tower of terror prank of plunging for several floors before spitting guests out in a random location. If the ghost is feeling particularly cheeky, it may spit its prisoners out somewhere they would really hate to be.

MONSTER MASH

ITCH BENEATH THE SKIN

OUT OF BODY EXPERIENCE ► Guests that spend too much time amongst the wandering spirits or who end up swept along with a group of them hurrying into a wall may find themselves knocked out of their bodies and forced into ghost form. Their bodies will collapse while their spirit is swept away into the resort.

► While in spirit form, guests can do everything a ghost can! They can walk through walls, possess or haunt their friends, and even infiltrate the dreams of other guests. Whatever ghostly tropes you would like to lean into, including the Patrick Swayze love experience, are at your disposal.

► The longer they're away from their body, however, the harder it will be to readjust to the flesh. There's also the small issue of staff picking up any "dead" bodies and shipping them over to the morgue. If they spend too long playing outside, wayward spirit guests may have to head over to the morgue to find their body (please see TDM prompt Arrival, Tails for details on why this sucks for them).

MOONFLUENCE ► The moon grows stronger after several days of gathering strength in the main lobby. Those that have basked in its light, even if it was only for a short while, may begin to feel that itch again... only this time it does not abate. The sensation becomes maddening, rippling beneath the flesh without restraint. Then — suddenly — it breaks free.

► Guests are transforming into monsters of all kinds under the influence of the moon. There is no limit on the type of monster that guests can transform into. Some guests may transform into vampires and weres while others may turn into dragonkin and tentacle monsters. The moon does not discriminate. Players are welcome to turn their characters into any kind of creature or monster they would like.

► Transformations do not need to be complete. Guests may have half or partial transformations. Transformations also vary in duration; a guest could potentially turn into several monsters over the course of the moon's rise in the main lobby. A guest could be a werewolf for an hour and shift into a vampire the next. Of course, a guest could also remain a werewolf for the entire duration of the moon's influence. This moon really loves some chaos.

► Any guests undergoing monster transformation may also utilize any of the DIAMONDS effects. In typical Golden Peacock fashion, transformations can also automatically come with intense arousal to get these guests into the freaky monster fuckin' spirit.

THE VALE

OVERGROWN WILDS

INFLUX ► In an effort to keep the monster situation under control, and to avoid mass destruction of the Golden Peacock, staff are attempting to corral any transformed guests into the vale. Of course, there's no way for them to get nearly half of the transformed guests in there, but some of the monsters seem to enjoy the more natural ambiance the vale provides.

► As more and more guests transform into monsters, the staff have little choice but to place advertisements for monster hunters. The job is easy enough: anyone who has not been transformed qualifies and the job description is to drag monsters into the vale for containment. Monster hunters will earn a medium payout for every transformed guest they toss into the vale. Monster hunters that fuck the monster before tossing them into the vale will receive an additional large payment.

► Transformed guests that turn back to their normal form will be allowed to leave the vale. Not that the staff can actually do much to stop them from leaving when they're monsterized, to begin with...

TERRAIN ► The vale has been shifted into night mode for the next few weeks to accommodate the newly turned monster guests. A full moon hangs overhead, though unlike the monster moon in the main lobby, this moon is digitized on the overhead panels for the sake of ambiance.

► A thick fog perpetually runs through the forest and weather simulations such as rain and snow rotate on a timer to provide a realistic experience. Every type of weather common during autumn/winter rotates through the vale.

► Caverns, caves, alcoves, and other earthy terrain stretches across the base of the vale. Tall trees with giant gnarled roots provide shelter. Bioluminescent mushrooms light the way in the darkness of simulated night. A long river runs through the vale. There are also several small ponds where these rivers lead to, as well as a couple of small waterfalls.

PACK MENTALITY ► Monsters of the same type may experience a resonance, or pack mentality, triggering any of the HEARTS effects between them. For example, canine-based monsters may feel unexpected fondness toward each other and be inclined to create a pack or share a den. Feline-based monsters may feel affectionate and groom one another. Aquatic-based creatures may feel that lightning shock of love at first sight. You get the idea!

► Resonance that triggers a Hearts effect can occur between monsters of different types but it's less common. Like calls to like, and monsters of the same or similar types will be naturally drawn toward one another.

SMOKED EGG

DEN OF THE BLOODTHIRSTY

THE COVEN ► Some of the civilized monsters refuse to be caught in the vale. Particularly, a coven a vampires has flooded into the Smoked Egg and transformed it into a den of debauchery. Gone are the gauzy curtains and pillows, replaced with stark red and black upholstery that lends itself to the vampiric aesthetic. The smoke, however, remains a haze over the lounge. This smoke is imbued with a relaxant to help loosen up any "prey" that wanders into their den.

► As far as prey goes — any creature that isn't a vampire applies. Prey will be doted upon and coaxed with the hopes of being fed upon. All those who come to the Smoked Egg will be encouraged to dip into hedonism with the coven and join in the sensual vampire orgy. Clothing in the lounge is optional, with many couples making love right in the open where other guests can watch.

► Guests that have turned into vampires, or were vampires to begin with, will be warmly welcomed by the coven. All vampires are capable of turning other guests into vampires through siring — this ritual involves exchanging blood between the master and sire, and will create an empathic bond between them. Vampires of the coven are happy to teach newly turned vampires how to do this trick if they don't already know. While guests can still shift from a vampire into another monster under the moon's influence, or return to a normal human, this empathic bond with their "creator" could potentially remain indefinitely.

VAMPIRIC LUXURIES ► The bar is stocked with numerous blood-based cocktails. Some blood has been collected in bottles, while other drinks are made from the blood of live and willing donors. The cocktails run the gambit of accompanying effects — players may select any SPADES effects for drinks at the vampiric bar.

► Though the core coven that have taken up residence in the Smoked Egg seem to be exhibitionists, there are numerous back rooms for those that prefer some privacy. Rather than traditional beds, however, guests will find luxurious coffins. There's nothing quite like fucking in a coffin, is there? Especially an upright one!

► We can't forget the vampire's pride and joy: the blood pool. This pool is filled with 100% bona fide blood, perfect for a round of fucking or just some relaxation. This pool is kept at a warm temperature because cold blood just isn't as good. Non-vampire guests will be encouraged to add some blood to the pool. It's the least you can do after being waited on hand and foot, after all.

BALANCE RETURNS

TIME TO TAKE THAT PTO

THE HOUSE TAKES A VACATION ► Between getting pummeled by guest shenanigans earlier in the month and then managing an invasive monster moon, the house is exhausted. Even near-omnipotent manifestations have a bottom line. Since the house isn't really going anywhere it's more accurate to call this a staycation, but either way, it's not taking any calls for a while.

► A general notice will flash on the electronic bulletin boards that due to overwork, the usual staff have also been granted paid time off by the house. Given how haggard the receptionists, bellhops, and cleaners all look after cleaning the Peacock from head to toe after overwhelming monster mischief, it's a much needed break. The Golden Peacock, after great efforts, is restored to semi-normal from most monster-caused damage. Some reminders remain, like those scuff marks that won't come out no matter how hard the cleaners scrub.

► During this time, the house will not be causing any mischief and harassing guests. It's a time of decompression for everyone. Right about now it's sitting back with a glass of whiskey and wondering why these recent guests have been such a handful compared to years past. It's almost like they don't want to lose themselves in hedonism and debauchery!

THE B-TEAM ► Of course, the house won't leave the Golden Peacock totally unmanned. The guests still need tending to! During this rest period, temps and back of house staff that don't typically work front of house are filling customer service roles. You know what that means: minor inconveniences abound.

► The B-team is nowhere near as good as the usual staff. Simple mistakes are more common during this time. Deliveries are sent to the wrong suites, the wrong dining service arrives, the towels aren't washed, and the front desk knows literally nothing outside of the basic function of checking guests in. It's not even worth asking when the house will be back, let alone asking for some other manager. But after the chaos of the past month, maybe these small annoyances aren't all that bad?

► The house will be back! ... Later. For now, the Golden Peacock is quiet, even the most party-hard guests fatigued from the past year of fun. What's to come? You'll just have to wait and see.

[was it a particular attraction that brought him to this man or something else entirely? likely the former, though in this state, he's left wondering what it was that attracted him. bakugou tightens his arm around the lion's chest, hauling him closer as his wings beat the air below him and carried them further up in the resort. the scent of fresh water and clean soap carries from leona's body, clashing slightly with the air around them as the blonde finally alights on some of the rafters above the spooky-lined areas of the resort.

here amid the shadows and gloom, he drops leona off on the beams, crouches on taloned feet nearby. wings tuck behind him, red eyes blazing in a watchful interest at the man across from him. he remembers leona's power display from before, even a small one, so doesn't bother trying to attack him or push things just yet. bakugou eyes the lion as his tail swings behind him once or twice before wrapping around the beam below as he stalks forward, aiming to pin leona to one of the supporting pillars of wood.]

[ most of his surprise is focused on the fact that the area above with the rafters is oddly spacious. did the resort recognize that there might be some guests who'd make their way up here? obviously it's not like there are pillows or blankets or anything but still. for a were-dragon and a beastman to occupy the beams and not be cramped is... interesting.

but it looks like bakugou is trying to use his presence to keep leona trapped against one of the wooden supports and leona, for the most part, isn't against seeing what his scaled companion has in mind. for starters--- he's not intimidated. call it a natural curiosity that has been warped by the objective of the card game they all have to play. ]

Come on, you big lizard. Show me what you got.

[ if he gets too aggressive? he'll show him a Time. anything else though... ]

[what's not spooky about a haunted barn ceiling or bats and cobwebs creeping through rafters. don't @ me how this place works. i went for the atmosphere. besides, he can fly (more) now and leona's hauled up to the privacy of the darkness rather than dragged through a trench on the ground. maybe it's not pillow and blankets, but it's something exotic and if the resort put a damn picnic basket up here for them, bakugo's going to explode in the not pleasant way.

they're gonna end up cramped soon enough though. bakugo steps onto the beam in front of leona, scaled tail curling around to his front and wrapping about the beastman's waist, as well as the log of wood behind him. the tip dips towards his waist as the rest tightens, dragging his ass flush to the beam when the scaled blonde ends his pace a few inches to flush against leona's chest.

doesn't feel, sound, or look like the lion's intimidated at all. good, he'd've been pissed if this was enough to cow the man.] You're fucking eager. [it comes out with a drawn hiss between his fangs, a brief wisp of smoke drifting the corners of his mouth.]

You want me to scream in fear instead?

[ unfortunately there are no delicious sandwiches in the future up near the ceiling but it would've been hella funny if there were! honestly it's spooky enough without any of the strangely cliched seasonal things somehow making an appearance above the real festivities, but...

well. they can make their own. ]

Or did you steal me just so you could hide me from everyone else. [ a snort despite how close they suddenly are. ] Can't blame you.

[ he's amused. he reaches out, taps bakugou's jaw, and hums. ]

And you're not interested?

You're too lazy to scream. [he would have been unnerved if food randomly waited for them up here. though with the way he's eyeing leona right now, there might be a meal in front of him anyways. red eyes linger on the lion's face for a full minute before trailing down to his neck and lower. a clawed hand moves up towards his stomach, sharp talons pricking at the surface of his shirt.]

No one's going to be looking up here. [yet. bakugo's still rational enough to think as himself, keeping a preference for privacy. he slips a finger under leona's shirt, obviously more bold than their first meeting.] Why the hell would I do something I'm not interested in?

That or I don't feel particularly threatened. Depends on what'll make you feel good or not.

[ if he's a meal, then he's a meal. it's funny to him when he's treated in a way that he's not used to. when he's the one at the top of the food chain, it's hard to understand what it's like to be anywhere else.

he watches that hand, those wicked looking talons, and doesn't flinch. there's nothing in his mind that tells him to worry. if anything? he might feel a little more secure. ]

Dunno. People have done dumber things for dumber reasons.

[ but bakugo isn't that. there must be something else at play. ]

Who said I was fucking threatening you?

[bakugou leans into leona's space, one hand coming up to drag clawed fingers across the lion's side. not yet shredding his shirt, but there's a temptation to do so. if leona's not used to be the one pinned under a predator, too bad. something new for him to experience.

but his patience isn't completely settled either and the way leona lacks any tension to flee or resist makes it a lot easier to mess with the hem of his pants and whatever fastener he's got holding his fly together. buckle, button, belt, band, it's getting undone with easy motions.]

You were so eager when we were in the woods.

[ but he can still feel the sharp point and it sends a shiver up his spine. his pants are quickly undone; a side effect of being in the golden peacock for so long that everything is just loose enough so that nothing needs to get torn into pieces. he can afford clothes. he just doesn't feel like going through the song and dance of shopping as simple and easy as it may be. ]

Still am.

[ bakugou will find out sooner than he thinks. he's already halfway there. ]

And maybe it'd be more fun thinkin' you could do somethin' to shock and surprise me.

[it's tempting to shred them, but he resists the urge when those clothes sag around leona's hips. no need. the tip of his tail slides into the back of them and drags down, more of its length feeding around the lion's waist to keep him tethered against the beam in the meantime. bakugo leans in, teeth nipping at the man's neck, threatening to break the skin but holding back for now. fabric falls in a cluster around the beastman's ankles.]

Yeah? [the reptilian part of his brain's operating in high gear right now. thanks, fucking transformation.] How about I rip it out of your head and do it instead of you thinking it.

[ who doesn't have a little reptilian brain thing going on in their day to day at the resort... maybe not as literal as what bakugou's got but still. the graze of teeth and the slight pressure of them digging in making him groan with a mixture of surprise and arousal. ]

Then why don't ya?

[ he wants it. hard to repress those words when they're just as instinctive as him visibly tenting in his briefs. the pants are easy. the rest, not so much. ]

[bakugo will never admit to having some damn "lizard brain" when he's not sprouting fucking horns and scales and claws with dragon wings. but since the guy's going to challenge him, that flares right up into the hot-blooded rush as he steps on leona's pants to pin it to the rafter below.]

Bastard. You're so damn cocky. [he doesn't sound like he has a problem with it as bakugo drops one clawed hand and wraps it around leona's tent pole. pins the material right against his head, smearing precum as he starts moving his hand. deliberately avoids pulling the annoying piece of clothing off. for now.]

[ he won't disagree! he's very cocky. bakugou's pretty comfortable with handling him that way, isn't he? so being cocky is definitely working in his favor here, as he spreads his legs and huffs. that his jaw clenches while he considers his situation and he finds that he wouldn't want to be anywhere else right now...

his draconic junior taking care of him. how cute. ]

Been waitin' for you to try to put me in my place. This gonna be the time?

[he's cocky in a somewhat different way than bakugou is, more suave and royal than the blonde's brash angry superiority. but yeah, leona didn't think he'd hole up and not learn anything while here. bakugou twists his hand a few times, playing the material over leona's length as he jerks him off. not intending to finish him like this, but make him squirm a bit? yeah.]

I've already got you pinned exactly where I want you, Lazy Lion. [that's pretty damn put in his place. bakugou hooks his fingers under the man's waistband and drags down, exposing his dick to the air.]

But you gotta... do somethin' about it. Can't rest on your laurels this time.

[ he's not saying that he'd be disappointed if all bakugou did was get him off with his hand, but leona would certainly lose some respect. that it should be about showing leona something new and different. it'd be a waste with that form of his.

the beastman huffs, throbbing in that hand, continuing to leak. he's trying to jerk his hips in time with bakugou's jerking. ]

What the hell do you think I'm doing? [Bakugo scrapes his teeth across Leona's neck as he twists his hand around the man's dick again. With his pants lowered and loosened, the blonde curls his tail further around and down, coiling the scaled length into Leona's clothes, and promptly yanks the lowers to his ankles. He cups his hand around the head of Leona's cock, squeezing and squishing his oozing tip as he bites at his the lion's neck.] Step out.

[ he's doing plenty, but leona's not going to give bakugo the satisfaction of knowing that leona's enjoying this... with his words. his body's a whole other thing in this matter: that tail is incredibly useful, isn't it? meanwhile all leona's can do is sway back and forth as he does what the blonde asks. ]

Watch the teeth.

[ not dissuading him from using them. ]

[yeah, bakugo's paying a lot more attention to leona's body than his words. he may or may not give a shit what becomes of leona's pants once the lion steps out of them. (news flash: he does not.) taloned hands slide down the beastman's sides, tracing bronze skin before bakugo finally has enough and "fuck it" takes the proverbial wheel. his wings spread to balance himself as he breaks from leona's neck and starts working his mouth down the lion's chest and stomach, knees bending as he moves on the beam.]

[ leona exhales sharply--- the combination of tongue and teeth grazing against toned, bronzed skin with the growing arousal stemming from an anticipatory excitement causing him to flex and twitch against bakugo's mouth. that he shouldn't feel this sensitive, but he also remembers that the suit that curses him does make him more antsy to these kinds of things. despite being pretty active, it likes to flare up way too often.

he carefully places his hands on top of bakugo's head, digging his nails into the blonde's scalp, putting some of his weight there as well. ]

[bakugo's been keeping ahead of his suit activation, but barely. he had a brief panic when someone told him the suits would start working up after a week, but someone else he (reluctantly) trusted more pointed out the time limit was more akin to a month, which eased some of the pressure.

it let him have more time to get to know his little pool of partners. resulting in him sliding lower down leona's body, sharp teeth scraping over the curve of his pectoral, skimming across the grooves of his abdominal muscles, and finally ending up on his knees in front of the lion thanks to leona pushing on his head. that earns a growl, lupine tail flicking behind his waist, but not doing anything untoward yet.

he does bite leona on the hip for a hot second.]

[ there's something to be said having anything with draconic features tending to him like this, some kind of fantasy in his head about another horned thorn in his side actually bending to his will. or at least giving him the kind of attention he could lord over him at some point...

either way, they're not the same. bakugo is more of the fire breathing, hot headed type. not a very good comparison to the fae he knows back home. ]

'ey. You can use your mouth in better ways than that.

[ another gentle tap of the head as leona grins, rolling his hips in preparation. ]

[how about you not lord this over him once he's back to his normal head? unless leona wants to throw hands with explosions. though knowing him, maybe that'd just give the lion a fun kick. luckily he doesn't know what's going on in the beastman's head. far more focused on what's going on in his pants. or what's now bared outside of said pants. that are... who knows where they are. draped over the beam or fallen down to the ground far below. bakugo stopped caring the moment they stripped off.]

Already that impatient, huh? [the dragon cracks a grin, a little wisp of smoke creeping out the corner of his mouth. fire-breathing type, remember? he leans in and runs his tongue right up the underside of leona's dick, tracing from base to tip in one languid go. tongue's definitely longer and more flexible than a normal human's thanks to those draconic changes.]

[ oh, the pants are going to definitely fall and make some unsuspecting passerby wonder what's going on above them? if they wait any longer it might start raining thick droplets of something... which probably is par for the course at the golden peacock but still. unsuspecting dangers lurking above in the rafters. ]

Of course I am. [ he fights the urge to buck into that tongue, as slender and flexible as it is. how it tickles in a way that isn't quite humorous, instead making leona's nerves tingle while his cock continues to throb in obvious need. ]

And you aren't?

[what the fuck else could be going on up in the rafters that would beget someone's fucking pants falling down to the floor below?! not that they're going to see much, given the way bakugo's wings are curled and tucked beneath them. might end up getting some eagle-eyed guest calling the guards over panic about some monster being in the rafters, but anyone trying to interrupt the dragon from his snack right now would be viciously combusted.]

You should've been stripping those things the second I grabbed you. [right, because that's logical. bakugo curls his tongue around the lion's shaft, almost able to reach the entire circumference as the blonde starts pulling the head into his mouth and giving a few experimental sucks. first time... it feels weird. throbbing against his teeth and tongue... he'd have more reaction if he wasn't so influenced by this damn lizard brain right now.]

[ anything can happen at the golden peacock. raining stained pants? sure. raining other stuff? very possible. except even those who might go looking for someone to take a look will probably get no assistance whatsoever. it's not the resort's staff's responsibility to keep people from getting off wherever they may find a place to do it, so... ]

Why? 'cause I belong to ya or somethin'?

[ cute idea but leona kingscholar doesn't bend a knee to anyone. having bakugo be the one to do it is the thrilling yet expected route to him. even if that reptilian brain is having him do things he might've second guessed.

but the sudden closing of that mouth, even against the sharp teeth and tapered tongue of a dragon, can't keep leona from wanting to try to claim it. he stops himself before he goes all the way but he does succeed in trying to push a third of his length further. no apologies though. what is a mouth for but to enjoy some high quality meat? ]

[if the people below aren't complete perverts, maybe they'll want to get out of the way before something else starts raining down on them. no one wants to get a glob in the eye. that shit burns, to say nothing of how difficult it is to get out of hair without a good shampooing. whatever, not his problem, he can be embarrassed about his lizard brain later.]

Cause you're not stupid. [bakugo doesn't tolerate anyone thinking they "own" him and certainly has no intention of shoving that kind of yoke onto someone else. and yet, there's a telling, nigh-possessive way the blonde tightens his tail around leona's stomach and the beam behind him, further ensuring the lion stays locked there in his grip.

at least leona's someone he's done stuff with before, so he won't feel like a cheat or violation happened. more grumpy he wasn't 100% the one gunning for it. bakugo growls around the man's shaft as he nudges his hips forward, teeth gently raking over hard flesh pushing further into his mouth. his tongue stays coiled, but opts to squeeze around leona's dick as bakugo sucks once, twice in experimentation.]
