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.
Hmph. [Cheeky. Luck or convenience, it doesn't matter. Bakugo accepted this game, something he would've blasted across the room in furious refusal several months ago. Fuck, has he changed that much over the weeks? Refusing to accept this place's control over him, stubbornly digging his heels in, playing by his own rules and participating when he wanted, and now he's sitting next to a guy preparing vampire his neck as if it's a game of checkers.
Fucking perverted peacock.
Red eyes linger on the man's fingertips, listening to the gentle husk of skin across lacquered wood. Tch, he's doing that on purpose, isn't he.] Don't make me rep-- OY!
[What the hell?! Wide-eyed, head twitched back, surprise splashed all over his face. Who the hell plunks their ass down on a lap like a damn horse rider?! A glare slides up towards the man's grinning face, strong shoulders flexing under his jacket and a bare snarl hinting at his upper lip. Instead of blasting him across the room, Bakugo changes his cupped hand from threatening posture to abruptly snagging the other guy around the waist, looped across his thighs.]
[ Kizuna realizes fast that he's playing with fire, with a nurtured, instinctual kind of violence. But he's never been able to help himself, even under unforgiving scrutiny — or, perhaps, because of it... maybe it's unfair of him to juxtapose this situation with one that he knows, but he is a creature of feeling, one who so soften gives in to the sway of his heart. Being in the Peacock isn't easy, no, but it's manageable. Especially like this. ]
Ehh... [ An incredulous noise flutes from his throat as he's all but bucked into Bakugo's grasp, leaning into the clutch of his arms as if that's what he'd wanted all along. ] It's not a threat.
[ He seems almost hurt at the accusation, but it's steeped in flirtation, a prelude to the way Kizuna leans in to nose across his jawline, breath pluming warm and low. His opposite hand rises to steady on his cheek, fingers loosely cupped. There is room to break free of him, but Kizuna is trusting him not to for the sake of the game. Craning in, Kizuna brushes his mouth up the strong column of his neck, a smile flicked into the texture of his skin, the band of muscle there. ]
It's a promise, you know?
[ Kizuna parts his lips, raking the flats of his teeth over Bakugo's pulse point. Just enough to feel skin raise as he seals his lips over it, soothing it back down with a soft suck of his tongue. ]
[This guy's smart. He sees it in his eyes. Picking up little pieces and trying to understand him even before they've done anything past sit a a table and have one roll of some stupid die between them. Dangerous? Could be, if he wanted to put his insight towards it. Bakugo's kept a wary air around him during his time here, not wanting to let people get too close, and having zero intention of making "friends" like this stupid bird wants them to. Doesn't mean he's been successful at that effort...]
Even worse. [What the hell's he gonna do with a "might" when he could be counting on obliterating this guy's expected allure? Bumping a knee up with one strong prop of his foot onto the ball, he makes sure to subtly lock Kizuna further into his lap. Then again, this guy's not ugly... Wouldn't mind a repeat if he's worth it.
Bakugo doesn't believe that "hurt" for a second, eyes lidding and head tilting to the side. His skin warms beneath Kizuna's nose wandering along his bone, nerves prickling under heated vapor ghosting at his throat. A hand captures his face, fingers close to his cheek, and he turns his head slightly, lips baring an attempt to capture Kizuna's thumb between his teeth. Six months ago, he'd have left this guy a smoking outline in the wall. Now, a heated mouth skims his throat and Bakugo growls around the man's captured thumb. His SCM tenses beneath Kizuna's smile.]
Hn, that's better. [Give him something to look forward t-] Fuck. [Right on his jugular, pulsing in a spike of interest within his mouth. Bakugo drops his eyelids to hood, fingers curl in the man's shirt. Good luck trying to calm his heart beat by making out with his neck, man.]
[ Maybe he wants that conflagration of his heartbeat beneath his tongue to heighten. He worries at his lips with the pad of his thumb as he sucks sweetly at his neck, undaunted by the threat of teeth closed over it. His breath plumes unrestrained as he pulls himself in with a shrug of his shoulders, taking that clutch of Bakugo's fingers as an invitation to continue. It doesn't matter all that much to him, that his game partner is wanting to puzzle him out in the same manner, dim flickers of awareness lighting up through his attentions.
It makes it a little better, actually. Rolling his tongue over the spot now reddened and wet, Kizuna pops off of his neck with a pleasant heave of his lungs. Admiring his handiwork, he brushes his nose over his jawbone in a sweep of butterfly kisses, there and then gone again. Looking up, he licks his lips. ]
You taste good. [ Heat and skin-salt. ] Also...
[ Kizuna loosens his arm over his shoulders to lean aside, depending on Bakugo's stronger grip to keep him balanced in his lap. Carefully smoothing his thumb from his mouth, he reaches over to helpfully grab the dice. ]
You don't mind if I stay here, do you? It seems so inconvenient to keep going back and forth.
Fuck... [Why the hell does this feel so good? Some guy's sitting in his lap sucking a goddamn hickey on his neck and all Bakugo wants to do is grab him even closer. Fingers crush the back of Kizuna's shirt into his fist, at least beneath the jacket, and presses harder into his spine. Heat blooms across his neck, radiating from where his wet lips latch onto him. Gonna have a mark there without a question. It actually feels frozen when he pops off, pain stinging cold air until Kizuna soothes it with a few laving tongue swipes across it. Bastard better take care of the mess he just made...]
Oy, who said you could get sappy? [Growled around the thumb still caught between his teeth. Not doing a damn thing to stop those stupid nuzzles digging under his jaw. It encourages his head to the side, tilted and baring his neck until Kizuna leaves the spot alone. Hmph. He straightens his head with a scowling grump.]
Vampire. [Not really. He wraps his arm more fully around the man's back and holds him in place as he leans back over the table. Apparently not willing to let him leave his lap either. A single nip to that thumb is a farewell when it leaves.] I'll dump you on the floor the second I'm done. [Otherwise, guess Kizuna can stay. He takes the dice when dropped in his hand and palms them a few times.] Hold your hand out.
[Cause he's not gonna throw them on the table when he's got this dumbass in his lap. Having to reach around him each time. A few more rolls in his hand and he abruptly inverts it and drops the die into Kizuna's grip.
[ Words like that might grate against someone else's patience, but for Kizuna, wise to the feelings that flourish behind Bakugo's threats, they serve as encouragement. He doesn't know when to quit, always hoping for the high of someone's emotions to capitulate to him. Caught between caustic words and flaring physical reactions to him... he wonders. Which will prevail?
Kizuna is otherwise pliant in his grasp, helpfully providing the palm of his hand when asked and depositing the dice back on the table when the roll determines their next move. ]
Support me while I make it easier for you, okay?
[ Slipping his arm from around Bakugo's shoulders, Kizuna reaches down to unbutton his shirt — really, it's just one button at his middle, his top being more of a lightweight blazer. Across his chest, the body chains attached to his gaudy pearl collar twinkle and shift as he pulls them aside, exposing a wide swath of pale, unbroken skin. He leaves a little to the imagination, keeping the hems of the blazer pulled just modestly enough to cover nipples perked from the sudden exposure to the air. ]
Uh-huh. [So he can swiftly deny that crap and cut it off! It's awkward as fuck when someone he barely knows starts acting sappy around him, saying things that make his hairline bristle and-- even worse --his skin flush across his face. Doesn't need people thinking he's some kind of softie who gets flustered over a few stupid flirts. Who the hell's gonna see that and associate him with a strong hero who never lets something ruffle him?! ... Maybe one day he'll figure out sex doesn't need "heroes" in it.
A small growl rumbles in his throat when Kizuna dares to order him around.] Don't tell me what to do. [While simultaneously tightening his grip around the man's lower back and leaning against the chair behind him to give him some freedom to move. He arches onto the ball of his foot, deliberately tending a knee to prop it towards Kizuna's spine, something to brace against while he works at his shirt. All the while watching with more-rapt-than-he-should attention as the man unbuttons his shirt in front of him. Even if it's just a single one.
Those body chains he saw hinted at the start lie fully bared now, accenting the man's chest and stomach beneath their metal drizzle. Hmph, not a shy bone in this guy's body, even if the blazer's curtaining the farther sides of his chest.] You're gonna taste like a fork.
[Oh yeah, totally ragging on his fancy decorations as he leans in and brushes some of those danging metal works to the side with his nose so Bakugo can get his mouth onto the man's chest. Not even a kiss to start, but rather a graze of teeth and hot breath scraping down the front of his sternum.]
[ Genuine laughter bubbles in his throat in light of his commentary, the sound only seizing when Bakugo's teeth go skirting over the delicate skin of his chest. Compared to the air of the casino, his mouth burns hot against him and Kizuna's throat flutters with a gasp at the sensation of it, his arm clamping back around his shoulders to keep steady. Skin ripples at his touch, goosebumps and a flush sweeping him in unison. ]
That felt good, [ He murmurs, his opposite arm rising to sweep elegant fingers up through blonde locks in encouragement. ] so I hope the fork-taste won't slow you down too much.
[ A quiet challenge veiled by a desire for him to continue, to really use his teeth on pale, unmarked skin. ]
[Tiny bumps raise on his skin against his lips and Bakugo counters them immediately with a deliberate lick. Flat and firm, pressing the width of his tongue on his chest and dragging it up over his prickled flesh. Heat and wet wipe those ripples off without an issue, leaving a glistening path behind as he reaches from the base of Kizuna's sternum to the small 'u' between his clavicles. Breaking off with a molten exhale before returning to the inner part of his right pectoral.
Teeth again, grazing a few times before his lips settle his delicate skin with a few brushes. Outright refusing to "kiss" just to be a dick due to the dice's demands. Faint metallic flavor lingers on Kizuna's skin, but it's not bad. Hasn't yet worked up a salty tang of sweat at the moment. Bakugo rounds his shoulders slightly as fingers card through his hair. Damn...]
Don't make me take a chunk out. [As if he would. Though he does press in hard enough to really get a bite on Kizuna's chest, teeth clenching around his skin and pinching it between his jaws. Leave a mark, but not bloody pain.]
