LORD OF THE WINGS
AN EPIC (AND SEXY) JOURNEY
【 Once upon a time, in a magical land far, far away...
The Lord of the Wings, a massive dragon with no equal, demanded a bride tribute from all of the kingdoms across the continent. Every month each province was required to send their most beautiful men and women to become the dragon's next bride(s). Ever greedy, the dragon was not satisfied with having one bride. Not with twelve brides, nor two hundred brides. The dragon always demanded more. The number of hot people around to bang dwindled. Things were looking grim.
Soon, a group of brave warriors gathered to travel the lands and slay this dragon. They enjoyed adventures of fucking their way through sirens, fucking their way though the faeries, and fucking their way through the mage school and beastmen tribes. They reached the dragon's crystal lair where the dragon, who took beautiful humanoid form, approached them.
The dragon promised that if any warrior could satisfy them sexually, they would return all of the brides to their homes. Each warrior took a turn trying to satisfy the dragon — but only with their efforts combined in one massive orgy was the dragon finally satisfied.
All of the brides were released and the warriors moved into the crystal lair to live a loving polyamorous relationship with the dragon. All was well. The end. 】
STAR WARBLERS
A THRILLING (AND SEXY) SPACE OPERA
【 Once upon a time, in a galaxy, far away...
The Palm Warblers and the Pine Warblers, two different legions of the massive Warbler fleet, began to battle. Whenever their ships would meet in space they would fight with the winner taking prisoners of war. After one such battle, a captured Captain of the Palm Warbler legion held in prison met a Lieutenant of the Pine Warbler tribe. After some rivalry, the two fell deeply in love.
They had a ton of kinky prison sex. However, the two were not satisfied with fucking between prison bars. They wanted to properly marry. But how could they with their two legions at war?
They each gathered friends and more sex was had between all. More matches between the Palms and the Pines happened, leading to even more kinky space sex. Bolstered by friendship and newfound fetishes, they gripped their laser guns and seized the science lab where some important keystone gemstone was being examined and researched by space scientists. This stone was very important for the future breeding of the Warbler race.
By holding the lab hostage, the ship's Commander put down their weapons and handed over the keys. The Palm Captain and the Pine Lieutenant held hands as they steered the ship off to find a new planet where they could live in peace together. The war between the two tribes ended because of good sex. All was well. The end. 】

▶ All TDMs are game canon. This TDM acts as the game's May event. Since April's event was a bit serious, we're leaning in the opposite direction and going full camp for this meme.
▶ Current characters may top level on the TDM. Any current characters posting to the TDM should note they are current in their subject header.

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!

[ the wink helps. dan heng's courage is bolstered by the fact that before anything else, they are friends - or, well, he thinks they are friends, or something like it. he doesn't have anything to worry about, reno has already seen all of him.
so dan heng hums, lowering his eyelids, quiet for a few moments as he regards the man before him.
then, he snags the chain that runs from reno's collar to his wrists, curling one clawed finger around it to tug him down, nearer, his luminous gaze sharp and icy cold. ]
I think you should show me, rather than talking back. Or perhaps you are an unworthy bride?
[ shifting back against the mattress, dan heng parts his thighs, the silky fabric of his top tugged up to reveal the gauzy panties beneath. his cocks have yet to emerge, but his slit is damp in preparation, wetting the flimsy fabric. ]
[ ah. okay. so the burning feet are normal. well.. he supposes he's seen stranger things than a guy with fire feet, though usually not on the average person. perhaps this man is anything but.
anyway, dan heng nods, then frowns thoughtfully. ]
Well, I could place a layer of cloudhymn beneath your feet for now, that should protect the things you walk on, but I don't know how long it might last if we separate.
[ Between the possessed outfit and the distraction created by seeing Haru, she'd almost forgotten about their current state of undress until it was called to her attention. Being reminded of that, and what they had been expected to do, left Makoto at a momentary loss for words, and while she was grateful that Haru hadn't been left similarly tongue-tied ... it did leave her wondering just what her friend had experienced here that she could shrug that off so casually. ]
I haven't met him. Or, at least, we haven't been introduced if I have.
[ Considering how many people she's passed by today, it's possible their paths have crossed. If not ... she'll have to make a point of meeting him. The more allies they have, the better their position is.
[ For now, though, she's going to begin heading towards the elevator with Haru - not waiting for any further confirmation from the visibly annoyed crew. ]
Hoshimi Miyabi | Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ) | New Character
[Miyabi doesn't really mind the hired help, really. The whole hotel thing and the strange watch and the odd game is very new, but being surrounded by adoring fans is actually very familiar to her.
If anything, even her security guards are a little put off by her at times. Her security was not prepared for the night where she stared back unblinkingly for a solid two hours and couldn't be roused from her meditative state.
Miyabi merely walks down one of the hallways with her flock of guards, though her steps almost seem robotic. Like she's just going through the motions.
It's simple really. She's mental training. She's a good multitasker. This, of course, makes her susceptible to crazy, potential scandals. Like how an avid fan seems to come barreling through, managing to get passed her guards to get down on one knee and grabbing her hand.]
Miss Hoshimi!!! Please marry me!!!!
[Miyabi is about to open her mouth to respond and- Please, intervene before things go a little crazy because there's obviously no one seemingly working in that noggin of hers at the moment.]
II. Actor Resume
VOID HUNTER
Height: 170 cm (Ears Included)/ 5'7" Weight: She can be easily picked up. Age: 24 Eye color: Red Hair color: Black
• Killing Ethereals • Weapon Proficiency in everything
III. Star Warblers
[You ever see that fight scene in Everything, Everywhere All at Once where there's an entire fight scene that includes dildos?
Well...
There's quite a commotion happening on set right now. Some yelling and screaming and it sounds more genuine than acting.
And who's the culprit? Standing with her head raised, she points her weapon at one of the wardens. There's a broken robot at her feet as she starts to step forward. Her weapon though? It's a double-sided dildo brandished like a sword. It wobbles everytime she makes a step, but it doesn't seem to diminish her confident aura.] You'll have to try harder than that to keep me down. It was foolish of you to think I wouldn't be able to win against your robots.
[At least she says cool things.]
IV. Premiere
[Sorry to whoever gets stuck attending the premiere with Miyabi. Well, maybe she's not so bad of a viewing partner, though she actually cares little for the content being shown.
She is, however, happy about the swag bags.
Miyabi's ears bounce and twitch happily as she rummages through the bag. The sex toy is already abandoned because she is merely a food motivated creature in this instance.
Her eyes sparkle as she pulls the bag of gummy candies out and is elated when she finds they're even melon flavored. She can't help but look at whoever is seated with her and-] Can I trade you for your gummy candies?
[Please. The melon candies call to her. Miyabi looks at you expectantly.]
V. Wildcard
[Feel free to wildcard me options or you can send me a DM if you want a customized starter or to discuss things!]
Not necessarily. Just because that is my choice in this occurrence does not mean that it is always my choice.
[ and the path of the trailblaze certainly dictates that he should move forward in the face of conflict, and never back down when it is important. but even still.. dan heng chooses his battles carefully. and, well - ]
I suppose I also tend to worry more for the safety of others than that of myself.
[ where he may fight against constraint to his own detriment, he will not ask or expect the same of any other, even if it means asking them to make a choice that will submit them to bowing their head, for the moment. still, the bird has certainly stirred his thoughts, and for a moment dan heng lowers his gaze. has he been too compliant, here? his goal is to return home as soon as possible, which means playing along with this game, but.. perhaps he has been selfish. even isolated and alone as he is here, dan heng shouldn't abandon the path of the nameless. shouldn't capitulate easily. ]
[ whoa, so this is why he was cast as the dragon. pulling off those lines without making a face or cringing... he's definitely final boss level. he's even got the body language! yosuke could never pull that off.
especially since this poor guy has to do it with his Watch acting like that!
surely, kinich must be suffering inside. yosuke has to step up his game. it's the least he can do! ignoring the laughter is just one part of that... or maybe they can ad lib it? the production's clearly got money to burn and yosuke is willing to make them work. ]
You know what mercy is? It's what you just threw away by calling me puny.
[ as the cocky warrior should in response to any invitation, any dare, yosuke draws nearer. ]
I'm not scared of you or any of your minions— [ okay, not the best improvisation but it works, right? and, strangely enough, ajaw's laughter makes it easier to follow the script by giving him something to ignore other than embarrassment, ] —but I just got here and you're already making me do all the work.
[ he stops when they're just out of each other's reach. following his next cue, he swings his sword down to stick it into the cave's floor like a challenge, a little shocked when it actually lodges itself into the ground. if nothing else, it takes the edge off of the next line, ]
So, here, how about you come for me now?
[ this pause is less yosuke following the scripted beats and more him trying to find the strength to move past having said that in his lifetime. as if what follows is any easier to say. at least his turmoil about it comes off as his role's irritation. ]
[ maybe it's a stroke of luck because megaera's seatmate is just as keen on bolting from the event.
the red carpet is too ostentatious, the paparazzi are too unnerving, and while the slim-fit suit they put him in is by far the most modest outfit he's been ken-dolled into, it is no less uncomfortable to be in.
despite that, yosuke doesn't look nearly as miserable as he feels. with his legs stretched across his side of the bed-seat and folded at the ankles, arm hugged around the complimentary bag of popcorn he's been working his way through, he almost seems at peace when he raises his hand in answer, gesturing that no apology was needed.
at least until he responds, somewhat desperately, ]
No, please, take me with you when you go. There's no way I'll survive this.
( getian had met a young woman in the Timekeeper’s suitcase, an arcanist who tended to wear extravagant outfits and even more grandiose hats. her specialty, he had found out, was alchemy. this was an arcane art he had been aware of even in his own time, but the potions and poisons she was able to concoct on the fly engineered a broader array of wild results than he would have previously thought possible. it was fascinating to watch her work, and even more fascinating to watch the effects that her experiments had on those she asked to try them. getian himself had never been brave enough to approach and help; he had typically watched from afar, curiosity brimming but his timid nature holding him back.
in general, however, sotheby’s alchemic experiments had tended to have a more… whimsical, kinder-hearted intention—nothing like what aak flashbangs onto the floor to begin to clear away the pestering crowd of paparazzi. with the immediate effect that it has, he might as well have been an inspector clearing out a nest of marauding insects. they quickly begin to disband and scatter one the foul miasma begins to fill their sinuses and choke up in their throats; the only trouble is, the same thing begins to happen to getian. the huddled mound of feathers begins to quake more violently, though this time with coughing rather than shuddering.
he hears the sound of hurried footsteps, hacking, coughing, wheezing, gagging, and sneezing all around. and then, after a short time of this, all is quiet. getian occasionally coughs himself, eyes watering, though he also slowly lowers the barrier of his wings to look to see just who had unleashed this “attack.”
truthfully, he has never seen someone like the young man. getian was of course personally familiar with his people, and he had met many humans and arcanists since leaving his mountain. many appeared human but were more than what they appeared—like jiu niangzi, whose blood was mixed with that of a lushu, a xiangrui—and more still had unique appearances that could not be accounted for by human logic. getian himself would be considered one such creature. so he is not necessarily shocked to see a Feline such as aak, but it is certainly a novel experience.
his eyes, mismatched dark and pale, move from the young man’s cat-like face to the motion of his hand. getian doesn’t even move his wings from where he holds them at his side; instead, his brow furrows, and the cloth freezes in mid-air. it is not impossible to cast arcane skills without his wand, but it is harder. he is deep in concentration as he maneuvers the cloth to his face, molding it there just as aak had done his own. )
…Thank you. ( his tone and the mingling tension and wariness in his eyes shows that his gratitude is not so pure or simple, though. ) Though, this alchemy of yours is foul.
( he stands up a little straighter and stretches out his wings, beginning to flap them up and down—just to generate enough movement in the air to push the gas away from where they stand. )
premiere b! (it seems too juicy to pass up i'm so sorry)
[ save for recent years where he finally made a place, and picked out a meaning, for himself back home, yosuke's adept at cutting reluctant space into his surroundings to grin and bear whatever happens. it's given him a lot of practice observing, waiting, accepting that he should never get comfortable because there's always someone to discommode himself for. it's the expected and acceptable course of action, after all.
which means he should know to mind his business. unfortunately, his observation skills didn't come solely from adapting. he's just always been nosy.
while he doesn't finish the gummy candies in his mouth fast enough to say ‘don't apologise’, he is too curious to give the other an out. ]
Oh yeah? Who?
[ yosuke glances over his shoulder. there are... a lot of people. most of them paired up. yosuke can't make heads or tails of who that ‘somebody’ might be so he quickly gives up, turning to fix the other with a casual smile. ]
Let's wave 'em down. I don't mind giving you two this bed... seat... thing, if you want. No point in me hogging it if you can use it!
[Zoro is one of the few people that Reno would truly call a friend. Sure, they fuck from time to time, but mostly Reno values the times when they just sit together and talk. Or even don't talk and just nurse their respective drinks. He's told Zoro some of his thoughts and problems and so did Zoro, so .. yeah, Zoro is the closest thing to a friend Reno has, since Rude basically ranked up to lover.
He walks besides them, hands in his pockets and still grinning all over his face, until Rude suggest he should be the camera man.]
Oi! No, I will not? I'm playing the student who gets his hot teacher, remember? Also you couldn't expect me to stay out of it, if the two of you were getting any closer than right now, that's for sure.
[Heckin' CACKLES. That never gets old. He doesn't approach, letting Tsukasa get his flailing out, but the vine does extend. It ends on a sharp, deadly point, and it taps at the cat maid on the forehead.]
Gahahah! Now that's rude, Mr. Gentleman. Everything you're witnessing is 100% real. And here I thought you wanted to get out of it as soon as possible! Whaaat, you don't trust me?
[ They do make for a very odd looking couple, but an odd looking couple makes for good pictures, especially with all the covert whispering and touching. The camera flashes seem to speed up a little. ]
You don't think any of them are gonna go straight home after this to get off to your pics?
[ Maybe not, when it's probably so much easier to do a quick interweb search for screenshots of Aak's ass, but Haru doesn't know what these people are capable of; he'd certainly jack off to exclusive pics of his favourite pornstar, whether he could image search for their ass or not. ]
You wanna start a rumour? You might convert 'em all to bein' your next biggest fans. Y'know, the kind who break into your house and take all your dirty underwear.
[ Not that Haru speaks from experience... Though someone did steal his left shoe once. ]
[ it's funny he should promise to be gentle, as manuela recalls the last few directions in their script encouraging the pair to "go as wild as they'd like." such things should probably be discussed prior to the shooting, just to make sure preferences align and no one will be caught unawares — but she figures there's time enough for that, especially as they still have make up and such to get through after their fitting. ]
Is that right?
[ his playfulness is infectious, or perhaps manuela is just more than happy to lean on something light, something flirty. he doesn't seem to be disappointed that she is his intended scene partner, which allows manuela to nurture enough confidence to tease him right along back. ]
Are you quite sure it's not the other way around? This poor, neglected housewife caught under the charms of her doctor, whose touch begins to feel more and more deliberate?
[ she hums in consideration, before holding out the hand that the ring is meant for, fingers splayed. well, turns out they may just be discussing preferences after all. ]
But certainly, if you think your character could be so easily ensnared... [ she steps closer, slipping her finger through the ring that he holds out for her. ] I wouldn't hesitate to try.
[ Funnily enough, Haru does not seem to care at all that he's being chastised, humming thoughtfully as he opens a tube of some kind of cream. He doesn't know what it is, but it feels like it goes on the face, soooo... ]
How am I supposed to know what I have unless I open everything? Do you think the Pope waltzed into the Sistine Chapel to tell Michelangelo to stop opening all the paint? Let the artist art.
[ Words to live by, from the same man who once braided his friend's hair so badly she had to cut it all off up to her jaw.
He squeezes out a big dollop of the mysterious tube cream, drawing a heart with it on the side of Fuuta's face. It's more green than he was expecting. ]
You're way too cute to be a dragon. They shoulda made you somethin' else.
[ If Haru truly wanted to seduce Broca he probably wouldn't do it like this, with most of his ass out. Contracted sex isn't his favourite way to begin a relationship (not that he's ever attempted it - he's a gooey boy at heart); this is just business. For now.
He grins at the ease to which Broca agrees to his demands, lifting his head to get a better, less upside-down look at him. ]
That was easy. Are you the kinda big beefcake who just does as he's told?
[ A little bit hot... Haru doesn't wait for an answer though, poking Broca in the chest with one of his toes. ]
[There are machinations in his own world, but mostly running off of steam or magic leeched from specific materials with special properties. He'd only learned what a computer was after coming here, and the concept of an AI also was beyond his comprehension.]
I'm...human. Yes. Are you only trustworthy and friendly toward humans?
( that sounds like quitter talk, girl. it's always easier!!! then no one else can find out about anything and you remain cool as a cucumber all the time. or something like that. sylus will get back to everyone on it sooner or later. but, he's found at least, in most cases that it's just easier to keep things to himself than try to explain anything as most of it just seems completely unbelievable.
anyway.
the smile that tugs up on side of his lips is genuine amusement, as is the small huff of laughter exhaled from his nose. high praise from this guy. )
Unfortunate. That doesn't seem to bode well for my stay, in that case.
[She's certainly had had much more elegant outfits than these, most with extra necessary fabric to actually avoid a scandal. Still, she's not a stranger to the more risque costumes, perhaps not to this extent, but they did exist.
Even the metal bikini she was wearing, part of a 'hero' outfit she was trying on, had a little more to it than the strings that Topaz was holding. She's in her heels, so she's probably towering over her even more than usual, but Astra struts her way to Topaz anyway, half-sitting on a nearby dressing table so she can take a closer look.]
Oh, that's small. I wonder if it's enough to cover you.
( so, here's the thing. there is precious little that catches sylus off-guard; he believes himself to remain cool and even-keeled in all situations. yet, this woman actually causes him to almost comically doubletake. just for a moment he'd thought that—
well, it doesn't matter. he can hardly be blamed with that combination of hair color and the red dress... however, once he properly looks over to her there are some very glaring differences. besides, it would be absurd for her to be here.
and just like that, after only just a split second of surprise, his mask is firmly adjusted back into place. his smile is friendly, easy, but slightly tight at the corners. of course things can't be simple here. )
If they were going to trap me in clothes, at least it could have been something better than— ( his lips twist slightly and he just gestures down toward himself. it could've been better than this cheap ass shit is what his body language seems to scream.
he lifts his gaze to her once again with just a small tilt of his head. he may or may not be seriously asking when he says, )
I don't suppose I could have your assistance, then?
[Speaking of hero-esque costumes, at least hers isn't as revealing as it seems to be normally. Sure, the full body spandex suit hides none of her curves, the zipper refusing to close around her cleavage properly, but at least there's no panty shots this time.
A cat burglar doesn't sound like much of a superhero, but who was she to judge? At least she had a cute mask to cover her eyes, cat-themed of course, and matching black ears and a hanging tail. Oh well. She doesn't make a convincing thiren, she supposed.
She hadn't been paying attention to who she was in the dressing room with-- they just push them in and let them figure it out sometimes-- but the voice does have her peeking away from the dressing room table to look at him.]
Oh! Scott, so you're here too. Looks like we might have the same gig, huh?
[She'll let him save face by not mentioning that yes, she heard his crotch talk.]
[ooc: I... totally lost our other TDM thread I am so sorry. Do you still want to continue that? Otherwise I hope it's fine for me to start a new one too.]
[reno already hums very satisfied as Olivine's hand caresses his balls and teases his length, his body stretching a little more to show how pleased he is exactly.]
I think you put yourself into a position on your knees by choosing to become a servant of God, didn't you? Except .. now you're not serving your god, but me,
[he runs his hand through Olivine's hair and grabs it a bit tighter when he feels the other's hot length against his erection, his lips brushing against it and teasing him even more.]
Which I promise you, is way more fun ~
[he grins, but then rolls his head back as Olivine's pierced tongue runs along his length, and fuck, for a moment Reno drops out of his role to think that he definitely needs to get one of those! However, he doesn't give Olivine much time to breathe as he waits for him to have just the right angle before pulling on his hair and pushing him right onto his cock, just careful enough not to choke him.]
[While it is a good point, Reno can't say that he has ever seen a dirty corner in the resort, ever, unless it was intentional. He doesn't know how it works, only that it does, and he'd maybe be endeared by how she's trying to play for time if it was ... well, anyone else, and he wasn't trying to get it over with.
He glances at the dildo at her question and shrugs.]
Yeah. Could be bigger, but it'll do. I'm used to Rude's cock after all,
[he is a damn size queen. Eventually, he pushes shoes and socks aside and takes off his slacks and boxer briefs, standing there in all his - not erect - glory, body lean but well defined, a few scattered scars of old wounds on his arms and back, and pierced nipples, all on display for Tifa, is does dare to look.
He crawls onto the bed, face towards the headboard and looks over his shoulder.]
You ready? Should I prep myself? Cause I somehow feel like you don't wanna do that either, [There's some sharp tone in his voice, but once again, he also doesn't want to force her, nor does he know whether she knows what she needs to do or not in the first place.]
2 ( hope u don't mind me taggin both ur characters 🫣 )
( even though he's just arrived to this place, sylus has decided that he doesn't like it or the games that they play. while it might be true that he isn't bored, he finds himself being more annoyed at everything instead. he doesn't appreciate the coercion that seems to be threaded through everything so that while the freedom of choice appears to be there, it simply just is not.
after being trapped in costumes ( and he does use that very lightly ) himself, he's careful about what he decides to put on himself now if it's provided by the resort ( another term he's using very lightly ) because he's not falling for that again. and it's when he's in the process of feeling the fabrics for something nice that isn't just blended with polyester, he hears a question that seems to be going around lately. he does quickly scan the area to be sure it was intended for him, and in seeing no one else near enough, he straightens and steps over toward her changing room. )
I don't know what it says about this place that a question like that no longer seems strange.
