【 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.
In a technical sense Hank is completely right, and given the way they've both started snipping at each other in this conversation, Gen really didn't expect any other response. The blasé comment about functioning human anatomy, the biting retort about Gen's scope of winning being small and petty--
The comment about actually enjoying it though wasn't on his list of expected replies though, and his fingers do actually still for a moment in surprise at that.
Just for a moment, because if Hank's going to try to out smug him here, then two can still play at that game, with 'at that game' here apparently meaning 'with Hank's nipples'.
"I'm just trying to help a guy out here. You have to settle in and get used to this kind of weird shit eventually, right?"
Magnanimous of him, truly, and not at all looking like he's preening just a little at the admission.
Hank still has his hands on Gen’s hips, but he moves one up along his back. Not at all trying to be helpful. Trying to be unhelpful, perhaps.
“This your good deed for the day, then? Helping an old man get all settled in?”
It is arguably a pretty good fucking day if Hank can have someone’s hands on his chest like this. Someone in his lap. Strange, absolutely, that this could become Hank’s new normal.
It’s been a long time since anyone has really touched him. A long time. Is Hank a little unnerved? Absolutely. Does he let it show? Trying not to. His heartrate is rising to a steady thump-thump, but it isn’t running a mile per minute just yet.
The game sure is taking an interesting turn here, and Gen is no longer sure if they're playing dirty dice, an elaborate game of chicken, or something else entirely.
With his hands resting on Hank's chest though, he can feel the slow but steady increase of those beats; just a little something to indicate that the hand now inching up back might not be entirely done just to keep up this weird little stand off they've started.
If Hank's going to keep cracking jokes about his age though, Gen will play right along with it.
"You look like you're still capable of helping yourself across the street, so I had to find some other way of helping out, Old Man."
How much older than Isao is this guy? Probably not much. Maybe not any older at all. Barely older than Hasegawa, who is still out on the field fighting alongside Gen on the regular.
