【 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 in our parking garage for all new arrivals. We aim to have all guests moved into their reserved rooms as soon as possible. We deeply apologize for any inconvenience!
All are invited to There Is No Tomorrow, a Phoenix Casino soiree to celebrate our beloved guests. The festivities will begin at 1800 hours on January 20th and end at 1800 hours on January 27th. Please look forward to 168 hours of delight.
In an effort to raise happiness and encourage better guest relationships, attendance is required. The house will assist guests that are too shy to appear of their own accord. Please note that black tie attire is mandatory. As always, we hope you enjoy your stay! 】
PARKING GARAGE
ANY CAR IN A STORM
PHOENIX CASINO HALL
WELCOME TO THE NEXT 168 HOURS
Phoenix Casino is a-flutter with activity and packed to the beak with guests. As a famously ever-changing space, the staff would be remiss if they didn't deck the crown jewel of the Golden Peacock out. The casino glitters from top to bottom, shining brighter than diamonds, rubies, sapphires, opals! Party-goers are shiny and glamorous with picture perfect makeup, fluttering gowns, and sharp suits. Card tables are packed and the slot machines are a-ringing as guests play, play, play! Prizes, luxury, booze, attractive people, it's the place that everyone wants to be at.
Those people being dragged inside by some invisible force...? Silly, they were so excited to come that their bodies moved before they realized what was happening. Those are struggles of joy and definitely not the casino's infamous ghost hands dragging unwilling guests to the party at the behest of the house. Look, they're literally hurling their bodies at the card tables with unrestrained glee!
All clocks indicating day hours and night hours have been removed from the casino. Once a guest has entered, their Watch will jam, making it impossible to keep track of the time. You don't need to worry about that tonight.
▶ 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 January event.
▶ 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. This month we also have an ongoing ATP / EMP where players can connect. Please feel free to utilize this for all of your peafowl needs!
▶ 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.
▶ 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.
[ Fig is laughing at the whole scenario, but be honest to goddesses has no idea what he’s done that is so funny. Beowulf slowly grinds the cucumber bite with his teeth, eyes looking bright from Fig’s response. He loves it— entertaining others and making them laugh.. but he was being serious here.
The cucumber is getting clobbered, here. He was pretty hungry. ]
If you say so! I can’t believe they’re handing this thing out for a snack. I mean, typically it’s pretzels and crap, right? Eating vegetables is really important!
[ He allows his arm to be linked because, well, it’s been awhile since he’s been out socializing like this and he has missed it! ]
My name is Beowulf! I’m realizing here that not a lot of people know who I am, and I gotta be honest, I kind of hate that! Usually I need no introduction!
[ beowulf's arm gets an idle pat where fig's hand has secured it into the crook of an elbow. he has given up on trying to actually link their arms... it's like trying go string a piece of thread and a chainlink together. ]
Is that right? You're a big somebody where you're from?
[ fig's tone is mild, but had he his normal ears right now they'd be perking up. back home, he made a habit of laying low, so associating with someone who has a reputation feels wholly against his nature, but fig doesn't know if he'll be able to find an easy chump like this again. who else would he throw into any more oncoming obstacles?
speaking of... his watch beeps once, making him frown. he has learned nothing good can come from the thing, and so he ignores it. ]
"A big somebody?" Am I a big somebody? Oh, hah.. HAH.. that is, so cute. I'm not ever gonna get tired of hearing that from people around here. Of course I am a big somebody! I'm the best of the best! I'm an undefeated wrestling champion!
[ Electronic watches like this are a new thing for him. The last he remembers, it was the 1940's.. it's all pocketwatches for him. The beep is a foreign noise, so it isn't gonna catch his attention just yet. He's too busy stretching his ego. ]
