[goldmods]

【 Thank you for choosing the Golden Peacock, 5-star resort and casino. You are currently registered as a WILDCARD in our system.

We are pleased to announce that several films have begun production in the resort! All guests are encouraged to participate as actors and crew during this time. Two highly anticipated blockbusters are part of the filming block and will have an opening night premiere at the newly renovated Hatchbox Theater.

We would also like to extend a gentle warning to all actors. New tabloids and journalists have snuck into the Peacock alongside production, so please be cautious of aggressive reporters. We would hate to see our beloved guests embroiled in public scandal.

Please look forward to your debut on the silver screen and all of the new artistic content soon available for your viewing pleasure! 】

HONEYWAGONS

A STAR'S WELCOME

WELCOME TO THE LOT

► All of these new stars are being welcomed to the Peacock in style. The Nest, the resort's premier massive shopping complex, is now lined with dozens upon dozens of trailers, each with a glittering gold star on the door. While unassuming on the outside, the inside of these honeywagons are pockets of luxury in tiny square footage. The catch? Why, characters are stuffed up to 4 in a trailer, of course. We're sure you'll figure something out.

► Characters still wake up naked save for a robe, as is standard for the Golden Peacock. This round’s robes are a mixed bag of gaudy glitz and old money velvet, reflecting the dual faces of Hollywood. Whether you're sporting some classic luxury with a pipe or draped in cheetah faux fur, these robes are skimpy, potentially giving a raunchy photoshoot to those pesky paparazzi!

► Existing characters are welcome to take up residence in any empty slots in these honeywagons. Just because you're not the newest ingenue on the block doesn't mean you're forgotten. Besides, we need you experienced actors close to set for quick costume changes and touch-ups. No need to ask to be moved! It’s all taken care of already.

HIRED HENS

► Several security guards have been newly hired to protect the actors from paparazzi and potential threats. These burly cocos and hens all have three things in common: tight black suits, rippling muscles, and owl heads. These heads aren't just for show; this elite group of guards can swivel their heads 360 degrees to provide the utmost level of surveillance.

► Unfortunately for actors, these owls are both nocturnal and way too into their jobs. They particularly like doing rounds during night hours and staring into the windows of the honeywagons to watch the actors sleep. Some owls will creep into the trailers to watch over their charges by sitting at their bedsides. An owl may be there, staring, where you least expect it. However, their diligence may not necessarily be a bad thing!

► Alongside owl security, actors may find themselves bombarded by paparazzi. These photo-hungry tabloid journalists are all after shots that will fetch a high price, willing to do anything for a scoop. The majority of these new paparazzi, in contrast to owl security, have hummingbird heads. They're just as quick too, zooming in and out of both backstage and the sets in search of a scandal.

► Be careful, because hummingbirds aren't the only paparazzi. That's right — guests, new or existing, may find themselves scouted to play ball with the tabloids. They may not be as obvious as those aggressive hummingbird reporters; some may even be working undercover in search of a scandal to sell to the highest bidder. All actors are at risk of embarrassing or defamatory photos being published in resort magazines or posted to the bulletin boards.

ROLE REGISTER

► What better way to get to know your colleagues than to check out their resume? All guests will have access to the actor registry, which provides an overview of actors and basic information about them.

► The registry, with the help of the Golden Peacock's AI, can also flag complementary resumes. An actor that may have good chemistry, match the requirements for a particular scene, or has unique experience relevant to an upcoming job may reappear at the top of the search several times.

► Actors can communicate through the registry. There is a general messaging board where everyone can see what is posted and personal inboxes for private correspondence with an actor. Actors are encouraged to collaberate because many of the scenes in the available movie projects involve intimacy.

COSTUME DEPARTMENT

GET INTO CHARACTER

PICK OUT YOUR DUDS

► The trendy clothing boutiques of The Nest have been transformed. The walls between these small stores have vanished to create a vast costume warehouse divided by department, seemingly overnight. Actors may freely browse the racks to select suitable costumes for the roles they've been cast. The directors aren't picky about how their actors dress as long as it suits the part, allowing guests creative freedom as part of the process.

► Actors that choose costumes that are extremely unsuitable for their roles will be forced to change into something chosen by costuming staff. These mandated costumes will be on theme but will always be slutty, sexy, and enhance an actor's unique "assets". An actor blessed with a bountiful bosom may find themselves wearing a tight little lace bra while an actor with a thick ass may end up in assless chaps. It's all about giving the people what they want, you know?

► All articles in the warehouse run the risk of being possessed. There are no clear-cut signs as to which pieces are cursed and which are not before putting something on. Possessed costumes come in two flavors: Type A and Type B.

Type A possessions are straightforward. The actor wearing a Type A costume cannot remove it alone — they will find that no matter how many times they grab a button or tug on that zipper tab, nothing will unfasten. Someone else must remove the costume for them. Good thing there are a bunch of changing rooms just big enough to fit two people inside around, huh?

Type B possessions are unique. The actor wearing the costume will begin to feel influenced by it. They may feel inspired or compelled to act out the role it embodies. This possession will not be satisfied until some level of resonance between actor and role is achieved. While the possession isn't satisfied the costume cannot be removed. But hey, you're an actor headed to set, so surely this is only gravy for your performance!

DOLLED UP

► Done getting into costume? Head over to hair and makeup! After all, clothes are only half the battle. Whether you need to get glammed up or slapped into some monster makeup, the makeup artists are here to help. Mostly. Actually, they're super understaffed, and there aren't enough makeup artists to meet demand. Though they hate to ask, could you guys potentially help each other get ready?

► Actors confident in their makeup and hair styling skills (or just confident) will be allowed to use any tools to help get their fellow actors ready. However, any actors kind enough to jump in and assist will be warned that many of these products are made at home in the Golden Peacock. If not used with discretion, they can potentially make the actor being worked on ... extremely horny! Like a game of Russian roulette, one in five of all beauty products are created with aphrodisiacs. Ironically, this isn't even for the sake of getting guests into the Game 52 spirit — their supplies are just like that.

► Fill-in artists shouldn't fret too much. The majority of those products only have aphrodisiacs in minuscule amounts. When applied carefully they typically cause minor arousal or sensitivity. Artists that spray and paint with reckless abandon, however, may find a new problem on their hands!

GRAB A GIG

FIND YOUR BIG BREAK

GETTING TO SET

► The Golden Peacock is buzzing with excitement for two big blockbusters that are currently in production: LORD OF THE WINGS and STAR WARBLERS. Both of these films come from movie franchises that are adored resort-wide for their iconic blend of story, romance, porn, and action.

► Directors will be filming dozens of scenes with different actors in lead and supporting roles. Actors are given creative freedom on how to approach their roles, with barebones scripts that offer a general idea of where the scene should go and some spicy lines here and there. One actor’s take on a role may be different than another’s.

For example, three different actors portraying the Dragon Lord in Lord of the Wings may take their portrayals three different ways. A lonely Dragon Lord, a villainous Dragon Lord, and a misunderstood Dragon Lord are all fair game. Supporting characters such as the elves and faeries the warriors meet during their travels are completely free game within the bounds of “elf” and “fairy” in classic movie tropes.

► Two new floors have appeared in the ever-changing Peacock, each dedicated to one of the films, due to their massive and comprehensive sets. Guests will discover two new buttons on every elevator’s operating panel. Actors and fans are invited to enjoy these sets even when the camera isn’t rolling — this blend of high-tech VR and real world elements comes at a very high budget, so guests are encouraged get their fill while they’re available!

INDIE HITS

► In addition to the two massive blockbusters, several spin-off series and porn shorts currently casting and underway. The directors of these major motion pictures have kindly permitted the filming of smaller projects using these unique movie sets when they aren’t already in use. Smalltime directors and film enthusiasts are eagerly pitching their porn scripts in hopes that they’ll get made!

► Several smaller sets can be found around the Peacock for these homegrown productions. While some scripts utilize locations that can already be found in the Peacock, other long-standing guests have pooled their money together to establish a handful of sets not already available in the resort. These sets are open for use at any time.

► Unlike the large production crews of Lord of the Wings and Star Warblers, these smaller porn projects do not have a big budget for staff. Some projects utilize AI and drones to film, so actors that are shy about getting down and dirty around a physical cameraman need not worry! Both the producers and the Golden Peacock staff want their stars to be as comfortable as possible to fully enjoy the experience.

SPIN THE WHEEL

► It wouldn’t be the Golden Peacock if there weren’t some kind of game-like twist! While actors are encouraged to go out for any roles or films they find interesting, those looking to win large and extra-large chip payments can spin the fetish wheel to up the ante. Actors that spin the fetish wheel must incorporate what the ticker lands on into their next role.

► Can’t manage to work it into your scene? Those that fail their fetish task will find a huge chip deduction from their bank account and a punishment waiting for them. Any actors that fail the game must dress up in sexy costumes and go around the Golden Peacock handing out fliers for the premiere of Lord of the Wings and Star Warblers, with strict instructions to dance sexily for anyone that accepts a flier. Hey, the directors have spent tons of money on these movies, they’ll take free advertising however they can get it.

► SPIN THE WHEEL HERE!

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. 】

A FANTASTICAL SET

► Guests taking the elevator to the new floor labeled 'LORD OF THE WINGS SET' will are greeted with a cool, damp breeze as soon as the doors open. Unlike any other area of the resort, this set evokes a very real sensation of stepping out onto the earth to embrace snowcapped mountains, lush forests, and wide-open sky. The size of this set is massive with different climates depending upon where filming is happening. Towns, villages, and tribes can also be found.

► The set is teeming with background actors that have been instructed to stay in character at all times. Actors may encounter both friend and foe while exploring the set, regardless of whether or not the cameras are rolling. Lord of the Wings features a wide range of character types ranging from humans and elves to monsters and beasts.

► Key locations in The Lord of the Wings are: human villages; siren's cove; fairy's forest; Beastmen wilds; Elven mountains; and the dragon's crystal lair. But these are not the only locations in the set! Actors will find a fantastical range of areas to explore and enjoy.

MAGICAL DANGERS

When it comes to movie magic, the Golden Peacock is more magic than movie! While sets are generally safe and violence is simulated, there are elements of the film that can affect actors for real. If guests aren't careful, they may really find themselves in a sticky situation and need a clever Hollywood way to get out of it. Or maybe they'll need to live out a classic trope for real.

► LIEBERRIES: Found in the Elven mountains. Delicious but cursed: you can only lie for 20 minutes after consumption. Beware misunderstandings!

► SNUGGLEBLOSSOMS: Found in the Fairy forest. These charming blossoms produce an immense amount of pollen. Breathing in snuggleblossom pollen is lethal. The only cure is to fuck within two hours of inhaling.

► THERAPANGO: Found in the Siren's cove. Anyone eating it will spill their emotional baggage to the nearest object (tree, statue, enemy soldier). It's cathartic, if not dignified.

► RAINBOW CRYSTALS: Found in the dragon's crystal lair. Contact with a rainbow crystal will increase endurance but delay/deny orgasms. No wonder the dragon was so hard up!

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. 】

A TASTE OF OUTER SPACE

► Guests taking the elevator to the new floor labeled 'STAR WARBLERS' will greeted with the ethereal hue of stars and planets outside of crystal-clear windows. While the set of Star Warblers is smaller than Lord of the Wings, it's far more detailed, completely imitating a starship traveling through the vastness of space. All of the elements of the spaceship are dripping in high-tech science fiction.

► The set includes background actors that have been instructed to stay in character at all times. Actors may encounter both friend and foe while exploring the set, regardless of whether or not the cameras are rolling. The background actors of Star Warblers are primarily Warbler Troops wearing helmets, highly ranked Warblers in sharp military uniforms, and white-coat clad scientists.

► Key locations in Star Warblers are: the prison hold, the ship's bridge, the command deck, and the ship's research laboratory. But these are not the only locations in the set! Actors will find a range of futuristic areas to explore on the ship.

ALIEN THREATS

Why keep the science fiction fictional when the Peacock can provide the real thing? While sets are generally safe and violence is simulated, there are elements of the film that can affect actors for real. If guests aren't careful, they may really find themselves in a sticky situation and need a clever Hollywood way to get out of it. Or maybe they'll need to live out a classic trope for real.

► 'TORTURE' BOTS: Found in the prison hold. Robots programmed to 'torture' prisoners into revealing information. These bots are equipped with dildos, vibrators, pussy pocket hands, lube jets, feather ticklers, etc. These bots can be controlled by the wardens for more intimate 'torture' sessions.

► SPACE RATS: Found in various locations. Small, neon rats that run around the hallways and in cargo areas of the ship. If bitten by a space rat, their bite will continue to swell until the bitten person has sex.

► GREEN GOOP: Found in the research labs. In syringes and in massive bubbling pods. When not watched, the goop will move on its own and try to absorb anyone around into it.

► GEMSTONE EGG: Found in the research lab. The gemstone egg that the scientists are evaluating, important for the future of the Warbler race. Any physical contact with the gemstone egg will inspire the sudden urge to mate and breed.

BOX OFFICE BOOM

► "And many, many, many more!" is no exaggeration. Smalltime directors and long-standing guests are producing dozens of pornos and these pornos are in need of actors. The above is not the extent of possibility. Players are encouraged to make up any kind of porno scene they want! Characters may take advantage of open sets to make videos or take photoshoots for their personal use, general public release not required.

► These pornos typically lack story and focus more on fetish and kink. The plots are loose, the lines are ad-libbed, and if there are any crew around it's one guy in a hoodie eating a donut. However, the cameras available for rent are just as high quality as the ones used on Lord of the Wings and Star Warblers. If that's not your style, all Watches have the capability to connect via bluetooth to film through standing cameras.

► Actors that participate in filming will receive a large payout per role. The more jobs you take, the more money you'll make! Alternatively, actors that don't fill any roles may find their bank accounts suddenly plunged deep into the red, no matter how rich they may have been before.

EXTRA SETS

Current Peacock locations and all of the Lord of the Wings and Star Warblers sets may be used for pornos. However, the world of kink is vast and variety is the spice of life. Several smaller open sets not usually available have appeared around the resort for actor use.

► CASTLE(S): Sets featuring the aesthetics of historical castles. Numerous versions are available, each influenced by a different culture (eg, English; French; Italian, Spanish; Russian; Chinese; Japanese; Korean; etc).

► CHURCH: A church stylized after Catholic/Christian aesthetics. Includes a confessional, pews, altar, and worship room.

► MANSION: A luxurious mansion designed to evoke high-class old money. Includes a servants' quarters for clandestine cross-class affairs.

► BEACH: An enclosed set with powdery sand and an artificial ocean. Includes grottos, a lifeguard station, and a large rubber shark.

► OFFICE: A plain work office lacking any particular unique qualities. Includes cubicles, copy machine, manager's office, and conference rooms. Smells like soul-sucking capitalism.

PREMIERE

YOUR BIG DEBUT

WALK THE RED CARPET

► We’re rolling out the red carpet! Lord of the Wings and Star Warblers open the same night. All actors that participated in any film, be it one of the blockbusters or a smaller project, are invited to dress to the nines and blow kisses to their adoring fans while strutting their stuff. Actors will have the chance to take fabulous glam photoshoots and share their thoughts about filming with reporters. Be careful, anything that happens on the red carpet can become tomorrow’s hot new gossip. Some of those pesky hummingbird journalists are so eager for a scandal that they’ll make something happen, sneakily!

► The Golden Peacock has upgraded its formerly dinky little theater into a grand multiplex for the occasion, so actors and audience can enjoy these films in delicious IMAX. The multiplex is lush in red velvet and fabulous “bed” seats — each seat is designed to couple two guests together. You won’t be lonely during the screening since cuddling up with someone else is mandatory to enjoy the movie(s).

► All premiere attendees will be gifted expensive swag bags upon entrance to the theater. Inside each bag guests will find a bottle of champagne, chocolate truffles, gourmet popcorn, trendy sodas, gummy candies … and one random sex toy. No harm in spicing up a special premiere, right?

The note included with the sex toy explains: 【 Get your seat partner off with this toy before the film ends for a special prize! 】 What’s the prize? Those that get their seat-partner off during the film will be given a Golden Globe. This exclusive gold statue comes in two styles: penis with balls or vagina with breasts. Congratulations!

[redhairedturk]

[Reno chuckles, taking in the form of the "hunter" he is presented with by his servants.
He lifts a hand and waves them to disappear, so the extras quickly hush off set to leave the two of them "alone".

Reno slides from his place on the bed to step closer and inspect the other closer, a hand trailing over Troy's chest, arms and back as he slowly rounds him to look at him from all angles.]

What interesting pray my servants have brought to me.
Tell me, did you really think you could slay me so easily?

[He slowly starts to pick one weapon after the other from Troy's belt, and he's almost sure that the resort made sure that some of them double as sex toys, he just needs to find them.]

welcome to the lot (because i want him to suffer)

[astraisborn]

[He's completely right that the other person is in the same predicament as him. Of course, she had the slight advantage of having been around for two months longer-- not much, but it is an advantage-- and slightly more experience to the insanity of this place to know that when she opened her eyes, the breeziness down below was definitely the hotel's fault.

Her nightgown back home wasn't exactly long, but normally, she still had underwear on.

It takes her a while before she finally climbs down from the top bunk of their shared wagon (it's always the top bunk, why?), hopefully far before he could look at her because uh-- yeah, he'd get an eyeful of her barenaked ass and cooch otherwise, and straightens herself out as she yawns. Her robe was in no better condition, but at least it was tight in the right places. No tits to ogle, just cleavage.]

Mmm~ Good morning to you too! I guess you're new around here?

[rhapsodical]

[ Costume bullshit....?

She blinks once, then twice, and then lets out a peal of laughter still muffled by the endless drape of fabric in front of them. ]

Seriously? That's it?

[ Sorry to laugh at him but it really seems so silly. Here she'd been thinking that he'd gone and done something dangerous and was hiding from someone as a result, but all this time it'd been over something as small as not wanting to show off? She shifts a little, pulling an arm in so she can prop her chin in the palm of her hand as she eyeballs him. ]

I get not wanting to be forced into something other people want you to do, but there's nothing wrong with showing off a little.

[ Says area girl who custom ordered a skimpy bikini to show off her assets.

This close it's hard to see much of anything, especially with how tucked in they both are, but a cursory examination doesn't show anything too out of the ordinary. Maybe he's got a bunch of scars underneath that shirt of his? Or he doesn't think he's muscular enough? He does look a little...what's the word.... (Rin voice) twinky but there's no way to tell for sure. Whatever the case is though, she's sure that there's something out there that would both look good on him and satisfy the wants of the prowling film staff out there.

An idea hits her and she straightens, excitement creeping into her voice. ]

Hey, why don't I help you? I've got a lot of experience in picking out clothes that look good on someone, and I promise I'll find something that both fits you and makes you feel great. Plus we can't hide here forever...you don't want to be stuck here all day, right?

[ It's a win-win situation! ]

[blindforlove]

[Despite the staff not having given either of them an explanation for any of this, Xiao Xingchen can't help but feel embarrassed by his first performance in one of these movies so far. When his friend starts to get aggressive, however, he makes sure to step forward and place a hand on the man's mostly bare shoulder. He understands the frustration, but it won't help at all.

The explanation helps give a better idea of what's going on. But... does that mean they'll be doing that in front of this crew for a while? How long should his cock be warmed for this movie?

Such questions never get to be asked before they're urged to start again.

"Action!"

Well, if they have to figure this out themselves, Xiao Xingchen will play his part. Having more credits for his friend to spend always feels nice.

He straightens his posture, perfectly poised as he calls on his night-hunting senses. With Bible in one hand and cross in another, he looks the very picture of the role, especially with how the stained-glass window frames his figure. Without even having much chance to study, words somehow come to mind as he faces his costar.]

You have nowhere left to escape, incubus. Submit willingly, and I will give rest to your weary soul.

[He could have asked more about what an incubus actually is, but he can hazard a guess.]

[redhairedturk]

[Well, Reno isn't someone who easily gives in in real life, and he is supposed to play the stubborn bride, so that easily fits together.
Also he doesn't mind being restricted and "helpless" during sex, though under normal circumstances of course, regular locks aren't a problem for the Turk and he can easily escape most of them within mere seconds, but of course doesn't for the play.
Here however, the cuffs do actually seem to have a very specific mechanic that they'll only open once Reno cums, which of course makes sense in this house.

He inhales sharply as Bakugo traces his tongue along his marks, the scars being a part of his past that's rather unpleasant, but he did reclaim that part of his face by making it one of his most recognizable features. Who knows, maybe he'll tell bakugo at some point, but right now is clearly not the time.
His ear is next, and Reno holds his breath again, the whole thing turning him on more than he should be as the "stubborn" bride.]

And how would I have run, my Lord,

[oh, the spite and disgust he puts into that title, Reno almost deserves an Oscar, or whatever the equivalent of that is in Midgar, or the Golden Peacock.
For just the briefest of seconds, when Bakugo kicks him, Reno's Turk training kicks in, and he wants to roll himself to the side and off to quickly jump back into a standing and fighting position, but he quickly enough remembers that it's a movie, so after the briefest moment of muscle memory, he drops into Bakugo's arm, though a lot more controlled than it actually should be.
He glares up at him, raising his chin.]

Just because you did this, doesn't mean you'll sweep me off my feet in any other way!

[shanksyourfeels]

[ Oh, she's going to play it that way? He can play the word game, too. Though, if he knew the meaning of it, well, he wouldn't deny he's a bit of a skank. ]

Yes, or spanks.

[ He's barely managing to hold this conversation. Some things, like spoilers, he's able to interpret from context, tbf and idc he might not have perfectly, but he gets the impression BB's trying to give off an air of indifference, but failing. After all, she keeps mentioning certain things, so she might like the fact she's one of the only people he can ask these questions to. But also, Shanks finds BB fascinating, and the things she's telling him are truly intriguing to him. Tell him more, cute new girl. Or sea devil. ]

Our World Government keeps a tight grip on people back home. Part of why I'm pirate, but hardly the whole of it. Sounds like this magus society might be similar. What's a holy grail war, though? Obviously, a war, over holy grails? But why is it fought? When did it take place?

Sea beasts are a specialty of mine. [ Ever since one took his arm. ]

[redhairedturk]

[Reno has stopped asking how exactly these costumes or special effects work after the first couple of minutes into his first movie.
It's one of these great mysteries of the resort, and really, the only reason all of this is happening is to get people to fuck, so why would anyone bother to ask questions anyway?

He frowns a little at the guy that shows up at the entrance of his cave, and steps closer, looking him up and down.
Even smaller than him and not looking like much, but Reno knows how appearances can be deceiving.
Yet, he stays in his role.]

And what are you supposed to be? My newest bride, or some adventurer who got lost or is even out for some reward for bringing in my head?

[dudevorce]

[ All of a sudden, it doesn't seem all that bad to be locked in a trailer with a complete stranger. Haru scrambles to sit upright in one not so smooth motion, the complete opposite of a pinnacle of subtlety. He could not possibly be any less interested in anything else going on right now. ]

Yes?! You're stupid handsome.

[ He holds a hand out in greeting. Touch his skin, handsome stranger, or he might wither away and die. ]

Haru. Can I touch your ears? Are they for real?

Space Opera Take Two

[astraisborn]

[Hmmm, she was supposed to be one of the 'villains' in this movie, but the script was very barebones, and also, the cute idol she met a while back is being devoured. Yikes.

She still has to play her part for the cameras though, so she'll have to get creative.]

What's this? So one of the opposition is still here?

[Actually, what can she use to contain the slime? This is worrying.]

It looks like your unwillingness has made you a target of my pet.

[redhairedturk]

[Reno looks up at the voice, recognizing them immediately, even before he looks up to confirm that it's Tseng.
Part of him is glad to see him as a "guard", but then it sinks in that they are all kind of getting lost in their roles, and he knows how ruthless Tseng can get when it comes to torture.
Well, this will either be the best time he's ever had, or the worst day of his life, that's the question.]

Tsk. You can try and bring it on,

[Thing is, Tseng probably knows exactly what training Reno has gotten to withstand torture, though the real kind, not movie magic sexual play, so there is a bit of nervousness seeping into Reno's body as he suddenly gets grabbed and pushed into a chair by robot arms, while his clothes (few as they already were with a torn shirt and some sad excuse of "sci fi adventurer" tight pants) get ripped to shreds and scattered over the floor, leaving him naked and breathing heavily, glaring at his "guard".]

You can do whatever you want to me, I won't give in!

YOU KNOW WHAT YOSUKE AND I ARE HERE FOR

[susano_oh]

[ unfortunately, this particular teacher is not a dorky-glasses stereotype. in fact, his outfit hardly looks different from his summer uniform, the dress shirt buttoned up to the chest and its sleeves rolled up to his elbows, save for the fact he has no mercy of an undershirt. all attempts to sluttify him have only left him looking harried. it's as if he'd been fighting off the costume coordinator. which he was.

not that it matters. he's dedicated to making bank!

except. you know. he didn't expect to find. uh.

yosuke repeatedly pinches along his hand. okay, so this isn't a dream that happened a week after the culture festival. this is real. and yosuke is supposed to act normal.

SERIOUSLY!? last time yu was in that uniform, his skirt was WAY longer. THIS SKIRT IS WAY TOO SHORT! which is probably the point. but.

while yosuke goes through his 25-stage internal meltdown, which thankfully takes all the energy he would have used to run back outside and breakdown, he goes to the front of the teacher's desk and leans against it. ]

Not up there, you're not.

[ he doesn't (cannot) match yu's unflinching deadpan, but his fluster does manage to come off as berating. (which he has unfortunate experience with.)

yosuke is DYING. he's literally DEAD on his feet. it is taking EVERYTHING in him to keep his eyes on yu's face. that might be why he can say, without exposing the entire range of human emotion in his voice, ]

Get off the desk first.

[shanksyourfeels]

She could, though, still be an idol here. She could grow her popularity much the same way she did back home, with the devices and network. Shanks would give the suggestion if he knew her thought process, but that might give away the fact he does - when he is able to - catch her transponder snail shows, and he has no idea what she's thinking or worrying about, yet.

Whatever wrongs he committed, he wouldn't lie to her or betray her - it's not his way, to start with. And Shanks never stopped loving Uta, seeing her as his daughter, missing her.

He almost says it when she asks if there's anything else she should know, his mouth moves, then the words just never form.

Instead, he settles for, "Luffy's crew is here. Well, not all of it, but most of it. And Buggy, a friend from my youth. Luffy was here at one point, as well." Shanks waves his hand and tries to smile about it. He misses Luffy, ever time he's gone.

"He shows up then vanishes for a time, every so often. Either way, there are people from home, here. People you can count on, and trust. Roronoa Zoro, Sanji and Nami. Very good people." He wants her to know she doesn't have to rely on him, alone, in case she doesn't want to. In fact, Nami could be very good for her. Another female presence who understands their world, and could show her around? That sounds beneficial, and he wants that for her.

[2birds1stoner]

Oof!

[ Down she goes, onto her ass on the forest floor. In her mind, she's fully about to be torn apart within seconds, and so she really has no other option, does she? Practiced as moving a muscle, she brings a familiar to the surface, coalescing its form out of magic until a bird the size and look of a raven sits on her arm. She'll have to put her mind into it to control it further, which is a suboptimal choice at the moment if something else targets her body, but surely it's better than immediately rolling over and becoming monster chow?

Despite her expectations, however, the chimera doesn't attack. It lands on a downed tree nearby and eyes her, head tilted, which is honestly also kind of unnerving! Is it sizing her up?! Is it trying to determine how many monsters she'll feed?!

Apparently it's curious too, but she really doesn't know if it's better when it asks her things like that. Are human-based chimera self-aware? The last one she met didn't seem to be able to talk, but maybe that was just an exception? Augh—she totally missed it if the Captain ever covered it, but since she's usually surrounded by people well-read on all the magic aspects, she just let them decide how to deal with the complicated situations!

She'll talk, if only because it seems she isn't dying immediately. ]

They're... monsters, made by a Dungeon Lord using magic to fuse together multiple beings.

[ Usually animals or other monsters, and differentiated from beastmen by their unusual anatomy and inability to transform, and, of course, their loyalty to the Lord of the Dungeon. But those are technicalities Fleki has no mind to explain right now, being much more concerned about her immediate survival. ]

L-look, I'm not gonna try and mess with your Master or anything, so maybe you can just... let me go?

[ That would probably be treasonous if any Canaries were around to hear her say it, but she's only saying it because she's completely alone in the first place! No backup, no one to even revive her if she dies! If she gets out of here in one piece she swears she'll make a proper report, so please just let her make it out, okay? ]

[redhairedturk]

[To be fair, Reno has not yet seen Dan Heng in his dragon form all naked, so he is up for a surprise soon enough.

He gets yanked forward, and Reno can't help but grin, too into something like this to hide it, even for the camera.]

I'm worthy enough. Are you a worthy lord for me though?

[He raises his eyebrow in fake defiance, raising his chin against the dragon he is supposed to fear according to the script.
But then Dan Heng parts his legs and for a moment, Reno falters, because this isn't what he remembers from their time together, and his eyes flicker up to Dan Heng's in question for a second, but then something dark and lusting fills them and he follows the tug of the chain onto the bed.

His curiosity gets the better of him, forgetting about the role as he slides a hand between Dan Heng's legs and hooks his thumb into the already soaked lace to pull it away and reveal his slit, all wet and waiting.
Reno grins, and without hesitation, he leans down, running his tongue along it to get a taste.]

[memori3s]

[ Now that he's hearing her out... Minato gives the rationale some serious thought. He supposes he can see her point. On the other hand, he's definitely looking over his shoulder to catch a glimpse of the other attendees.

The gratuitous moaning and sloppy sounds aren't just coming from the screen. In fact, hey -- there's someone else asleep in one of the bed-seats too? They're engaging in the exact same activity as Minato was earlier, if you ignore how one of them had a hand down their partner's pants.

Minato nods in the direction of a different couple who've discovered their little surprise nestled in a gift bags. ]

They're not paying attention either.

[ Is she going to go and tell them to watch something others worked hard on? ]

[goons]

[Rude doesn't take any of their time together for granted here. He doesn't know how long they'll get to stay here and enjoy each other before getting sent home, so he still likes to make the most of it. Catching up for all the time they've spent working and pretending to be indifferent about each other for professional reasons. This place could be a blessing for them.

On the other hand, having to sleep with other people and allowing Reno to do the same hasn't been ideal. The only thing that's kept him from truly getting upset and doing something stupid over it is the fact that he would be such a hypocrite.

So he just focuses on Reno whenever he can. Tonight is no different. Reno comes when he's asked and Rude rewards him with a kiss, both hands running up the exposed skin of his thighs.]

Am I supposed to care what happens to that dress?

[To show that he doesn't have any regard for fabric, he slides his hand under the dress to rip the lace fabric of Reno's underwear for better access. It takes a little bit of maneuvering but he traps Reno's cock behind the untorn waistband of his underwear so he's free to run the vibrator right along the underside of his length, tastefully hidden beneath a flap of fabric from the dress.]

[memori3s]

[ It helps that she's far more polite about the entire affair. And given that this particular photographer is an actual guest, at least she'll probably get some chips if she chooses to sell the picture to one of the tabloids. Or maybe she'll hang onto it? Whatever, not his business...

Minato turns towards the girl, lowering his head ever so slightly in deference. He holds his skirt carefully with two hands and dips partway into a curtsy, holding the position for the photo.

Maybe he'd go for a far more low effort pose if it weren't another guest of the resort asking for the picture. But he's not about to be the reason for someone landing in trouble. ]

[goons]

[Rude is in between films at the moment, just roaming around to see the different sets and people in costume when he hears his name. The owner of that particular voice is very familiar, but he doesn't see her right away.

Part of the reason why is that dress she has on. It seems like no one is free from participating in at least one of these films, but he doesn't ask too many questions when it seems like she might need help. The closer he gets the more of the dress he sees, and the more of her chest he has to try not to stare at. He does well enough to start, but then he catches sight of that scar on her chest and looks away. Sephiroth haunts them even here. He's read her files.]

Is everything okay? What's wrong?

[Based on the awkward look on her face, he knows it's nothing terribly serious, but enough that she would be willing to ask him for assistance. Rude doesn't make any move to step inside with her, not without being invited first.]

[apothecrazy]

[ Maomao isn't the biggest fan of having other people do her makeup. Mostly because they wipe away her freckles and cover up the ones she tattooed on herself, something about other people discovering her little trick to appear less appealing is a little embarrassing.

Still, she doesn't fight being guided to the chair or make a fuss about Topaz doing her makeup. ]

Three years is impressive if nothing could grow before. [ She would imagine that kind of recovery would take decades. ]

[aflowers]

[ The director, Aerith thinks vaguely, seems much happier this time. First, there's the way Zack sweeps through the room, the kind of hero they want instead of a real one, slicing down his enemies before setting his sights on her. They even seem to approve of his "line" as he does reach her, his hand reaching out to her cheek.

Aerith knows, though, that it's not just a line. This isn't a "sorry it took me a while to get here, maiden fair". It's not even a "sorry I arrived at the resort after you".

No, Zack's apology is one spoken for years of pain, for promises unfulfilled. For each and every letter sent his way.

Her eyes brim with a gentle wash of tears, and she leans into the hand that caresses her cheek, and Aerith shakes her head as well as she can when she's bound to the altar. ]

There's no need to apologize, [ she whispers back. Despite her earlier, conflicted feelings, she means it. ] You're here now.

[ Another one for them to be happy with, it seems, if the director and producers' nods to one another are anything to go by. Another one, too, borne only of honesty, despite working perfectly well in this moment. Truthfully, her attention isn't really on the men filming the scene. Aerith's smile is patient and understanding as she looks up at him. Now... now they're close, and it shouldn't matter too much what they say, so long as they do what the script says, which...

...is to have deeply passionate sex. ]

I'm sorry it has to be like this. But I...

[ How can she express that there's a part of her that doesn't mind, even though they're in front of a camera? That it's okay, because it's with him? ]

If you know what kind of place this is, then you know there's only one way these are coming undone, right..? What I mean is, you know... [ A sigh, as she shakes her head just that little bit. ] I'm sorry, Zack.

[goons]

[Rude knew Tseng was around, but hadn't seen him since they parted ways earlier. He recognizes his voice first, because that look on Tseng took some new neural connections forming to wrap his head around. Though the temptation to comment on it is there, a man in a glass house shouldn't be the first to throw stones. Or however that saying goes.]

Hm. [Rude thinks about Aventurine for a few seconds then turns to Tseng again, nodding.] Just giving. Are you volunteering?

[He looks over Tseng's costume, the beginnings of a smile on his lips, but never quite getting there. Rude got the short end of the costume stick. He's meant to be a college professor of some sort. His shades replaced with thick rimmed glasses, and his usual attire gone in favor of a crimson knit turtle neck that feels WRONG in so many ways, but his khaki slacks and black loafers are tolerable.]

[redhairedturk]

[Reno has never truly been indifferent towards Rude, but at some point simply gave up trying to seduce him after it didn't work for years. From time to time he would try again, but only be rewarded with ignorance or a dry remark, so he settled for those evenings together, with drinking, watching movies, invading Rude's private space by sleeping on his shoulder and overall just bros being bros.
He wonders what would happen if they were to return home. If they would remember anything, or if not, if they would finally find together after all?
He hopes it.
But also for some strange reason, he hopes that they can simply stay here and enjoy their lives together.
And even though Reno meant what he told Rude, that he would go monogamous for him, he appreciates that Rude dismissed it. Though, Reno also stands by it, that the sex, and the time overall he's spending with Rude, is the best he's having in here, or ever, really.

There is a sound of complaint when the lace rips, and Reno nudges Rude with his elbow.]

hey, those were expensive, and you haven't even taken a look at them!
[he hisses, but there's a grin in his voice, because damn, he likes Rude like that, all aggressive and strong, and Reno turns his face to mouth along Rude's jawline, letting his beard tickle Reno's sensitive lips.]

The dress depends .. do you want me to wear it again, or should I get another one for the next time -? aahh ...

[Reno's whole body twitches slightly as the vibrator is pushed against the length of his cock, sending waves of pleasure through him that seem to go straight up his spine, causing him to roll his head onto Rude's shoulder to gasp.]

[apothecrazy]

[ No way, humans aren't meant to keep things bottled up for too long. Though Maomao can't say she's ever had a breakdown from keeping things bottled up. So far, things have worked out with her convincing herself she doesn't have emotions. ]

I suppose it doesn't unless you can adapt.

[ Maomao shifts the basket she's holding to cover herself a little better. Pointless, she knows when little is left to the imagination with her costume. Still, it's a small comfort for someone who is accustomed to wearing baggy clothing that covers everything. ]

However, if you like gambling, there is at least that. And they don't require you to get naked to play. [ Surprisingly. ]

[memori3s]

[ Minato nods. Yep, looks like this really is the same old Red, ever prepared to lend a hand. ]

I will.

[ But while he has the chance, and before it potentially fades from Red's memory: ]

You... said you went to sleep, and then you woke up here again? You don't remember anything in between?

[ Had she been kidnapped? Or, maybe she'd briefly returned home, only to be pulled back to the Golden Peacock again? ]

[softstoneheart]

[ More than actual makeup, she's sort of going through the motions to keep people from bothering them, occasionally dabbing lightly at her with bare brushes.
]

Yeah, based on my analysis, it'd prolly take at least seventy years to recover on its own, and that's a very optimistic estimate. The chemicals emitted into the air were raining back onto the ground, the air was unbreathable... the tech was like a miracle.
