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. 】

OOC NOTES
▶ All characters on the TDM are WILDCARDS, which means they have not yet been assigned a card value. Suits will not manifest until characters are accepted into the game.
▶ All TDMs are game canon. This TDM acts as the game's October event. Changes to the above locations will ICly be present from October 15th - November 3rd. All supernatural phenomenon will increase in strength over time, culminating in peak activity on All Hallows' Eve. The days following Halloween will relax, leading into eventual normalcy. Some locations are spared the supernatural frenzy, so players can play as normal if they wish to avoid these tropes/prompts. Players may assume that the supernatural come and go in the above specifically incorporated locations.
▶ Current characters may top level on the TDM. Any current characters posting to the TDM should note they are current in their subject header.
▶ The top level directory is for new characters only. We want to make sure new characters are prioritized and receive attention! If you would be interested in a game invitation, you can note that in your comment header.
▶ If you aren't satisfied with these prompts, please feel free to check out our LOCATIONS to explore more of the resort!
▶ Smut threads that take place on this TDM can be used for rewards. If both parties in the smut thread join the game, you may retroactively apply the character's initial card values to your 52 bank. If one character does not join the game the thread will not be applicable toward rewards (as that character would not have a card value). The character that does join would still receive a small payout for the encounter. Hopefully it was a fun thread regardless!
▶ We ask you to kindly add content warnings to your threads as appropriate. This TDM in particular has the potential to get real wild, so we want to emphasize this request!
▶ If you do not currently have permissions and kinks listed in your character’s journal we suggest leaving a note in your top level of any limits or boundaries for other players to reference.
▶ Go forth and let your freak flag fly!

and then rufus speaks, and tseng finds himself laughing weakly, an unexpected and rough sound that illuminates exactly how dry his own throat is as well. ]
It seems my— [ he pauses, swallows. they'll need water. there should be some, somewhere in the room—tseng swallows again and turns his brain off for a second. ] My demonstration was as effective as I'd hoped.
[ slowly, he pushes himself up enough that he can look down into rufus' face. he looks destroyed, every bit as wrecked as tseng himself feels—his face flushed and glistening with sweat, slick at his temples, his hair sticking to it in its wild dishevelment. he's beautiful. tseng leans down to press their mouths together in a slow kiss, this one less needy but no less full of desire. ]
I'm going to get water. [ they can't just keep drinking each other's blood. tseng pulls back, pulls out slowly, letting his cock slip from rufus' body with a sound of disappointment that he can't quite stifle. ] I'll be right back. Leave room for me.
[ he doesn't say it aloud, but it's there in his expression: tseng doesn't want to leave this bed any more than rufus wants him to leave it. but they do need to at least wet their throats, and having it at the bedside will make it easier for them to—what? curl up together and bask in the afterglow?
if that's what rufus wants then tseng will do it. it is, beyond the shadow of a doubt, exactly what tseng would like to do. ]
no subject
He doesn't mean to let it bleed through their connection the way it does, but it does: the world's softest, tenderest reproach at the unthinkable suggestion of being separated from him for even an instant, much less leaving him there by his lonesome.
It's childish. He makes himself focus on the promise to return, rather than the tragedy of the departure, and rolls over onto his side in search of a stretch of pillow that isn't obliterated and the soft oblivion of the still-warm mattress underneath him.]
Hurry back.
[There's still cum inside him. Turned over, he can feel it start to drip, and it ought to leave him feeling a little filthy but there's an odd preternatural solace in it, too. Like having Tseng's bites in his skin, his blood in his mouth; he'll take all the echoes of his presence that he can get.]
no subject
tseng can't help it. he smiles, leans down to press his lips briefly to rufus' shoulder, right at the outermost curve of it. ]
I will.
[ and he does. the bathroom juts off the bedroom only a few paces away, making it easy for tseng to retrieve a damp cloth and two cups of water; less than forty-five seconds and he's back, setting both glasses on the nightstand and climbing back into bed to rejoin rufus in bed. the mattress is still warm. tseng kicks the damp comforter down the bed and tugs the unspoiled topsheet up to cover them both to the hip, then slides an arm over rufus' waist, a reassuring presence. ]
no subject
I do, [he says, quietly,] Need you.
[The powerful vampire king that had preened in the club would never admit to being anything less than strong, anything less than perfect. The new president of Shinra would never have, either, walking as he did in the shadow of the old.
Tseng deserves better than that. Deserves to know that he's special, he's different, that he's wanted right where he is and not a perfect three inches of space held separate.]
And even if I didn't I would still want you. You know that, don't you?
no subject
across the bond between them tseng can feel that rufus means it. to admit to feelings when they're like this, unable to hide much of anything from each other, is an act of absolute vulnerability; tseng knows how much it means for rufus to offer so willingly. ]
I'm beginning to believe it.
[ if tseng were to tilt his head just a little bit forward, he would be able to press his lips to the uppermost knob of rufus' spine, right at the nape of his neck. along with all the other complicated emotion he's sending right back across their sympathetic link, perhaps rufus will also be able to sense how badly he wants to do exactly that. ]
no subject
Behind closed eyes and slow breaths, for once, he lets his desires do the talking — a language not dissimilar to the way they can converse with gestures and microexpressions, only this time it takes no movement at all, from how some phantasmal part of each of them has kissed up against the other, has braided together and refuses to let go.
All of me, it croons, a faint and tantalizing echo of the words he'd spoken before. Only you can have all of me.]
