[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!

[intertwinedfates]

Missing your weapons, huh?

[Since he's lacking his own, it stands to reason the kid would be, too. Except that he seemed perfectly capable of creating explosions back in the trailer. Hmm... Maybe he shouldn't goad him so much in that case. Still, maybe he had firecrackers or something? Stranger things have already happened, that's for sure.

Hopping right through a rack of clothes rather than go around it, Yato can't help ogling said dancers a little bit, with their sparkly attire and feathered headdresses. It really is like a maze in here, with shit everywhere and hardly any open space that isn't being used in some manner or form. Thankfully Yato is nimble and flexible, dodging people and props alike.]

Oh, well that's not so bad, then. Provided it doesn't suck us dry. You sure don't seem like a husk, though~ [Given that ayakashi feed on negativity, it's not too bonkers of a notion to him. What's weirder is the watch, honestly. He gives it a final shake before giving up.] Seriously? Is it like... one of those GPS thingies?

[blastedass]

Killing someone's pointless here. The hotel brings them back.

[Bakugo's not gonna waste his time and energy on a futile endeavor. This bastard can assume what he wants. His boots go from grinding on concrete and stepping atop wooden frames to a soft husk as he reaches plush carpeted halls and the resort more proper. This entire floor's completely consumed by movie sets and other theatrics, but the ground floor and lobby should be free of transformation. Minus the theming on restaurants and workers.

Of course this guy's still behind him. Didn't lose him in the hustle and bustle, unfortunately. Athletic, resilient, quick, reactive, there's more to this guy. He's not some fool getting blown up normally. Tch, great. Bakugo wasn't stopping to let him catch up though. No he was making sure the elevator wasn't getting ready to open and let out a rush into the damn hall. Right.]

It's a smart watch. [Do they have those in this guy's world? Assume not.] Think of it as a small computer strapped to your wrist. [Bakugo heads for the stairwell near the elevator.]

[intertwinedfates]

Seriously?

[Infinite respawns, huh...? Like gods being able to reincarnate. It's enough to get him frowning seriously in thought; for an ayakashi or entity to have that kind of power... It's either incredible or some kind of trick. Could it be that it's all just a dream...? It's one hell of a vivid dream, if that's the case.

Oh well. Either way, what matters is the here and now, and this place is getting more and more interesting as the movie set gives way to a more proper hotel experience, complete with carpets and golden halls. Like your average tourist, Yato can't help gawking as they walk, his eyes seeing yen signs in everything. Maybe he could sneak away with a chunk of gold pillar or something once he finds the exit...]

Aah... [He makes a noise of acknowledgement, but it's uncertain - clearly he's not sure what that entails, until Bakugo explains further, causing his eyebrows to raise.] They've really come a long way with computers, damn. I remember when they were big honking things that took up rooms. [Showing your age there, Yato. At least physically he's as nimble and spry as a kid, keeping up with Bakugo easily.]

[blastedass]

Aa. But if it revives you, you lose all your chips, your rank falls to last, and whatever possessions you had are gone.

[Dying and coming back basically ruins a guest and removes all their "progress" in the resort. Thankfully their progress in Game 52 doesn't get reset, but like hell is Bakugo gonna tell this guy about all of that perverted crap. Someone else can inform him! He expects him to do the work in his head about killing based on what he just learned. Ironically, the victim who got killed is the one who pays the heavier price for the "inconvenience" of the resort reviving their dead ass.]

Haa? [Bakugo's expression wrinkles in a line from brow to nose to lips, a confused sneer thrown over his shoulder at Yato with a once over following.] What the hell are you, some geezer stuck in a teenage body?

[Yeah, don't think he missed the implication.]

[intertwinedfates]

Game over, hmm? That'd suck majorly. Talk about a waste of time and effort!

[So even if he can't strictly die permanently here, it's no good to go getting yourself killed for stupid reasons, it seems. Makes sense, but is a bummer all the same. He was kind of hoping that if they couldn't die they could just fight their way out of here. Makes sense they can't, though. It'd be too damn easy, and if this place thrives off them being captives, it wouldn't give them an easy out.]

Not a geezer! An ancient and noble god, I'll have you know! [It's said proudly, with a hand splayed on his chest and his nose slightly upturned. Rude punk...] So respect your elders a bit, why don't you! Otherwise I may be tempted to smite you for your insolence.

[Not really, but sometimes it's fun to play the part of a vengeful god.]

[blastedass]

If you plan on making anything of yourself here, don't die.

[Those who have people they can rely on to take care of them and don't give a shit about money and possession, yeah, feel free to go Happy Death Day cause fuck the results. That is not most people.

The problem with fighting their way out is there's... no "way out" to go against. Things like the front door and windows to the outside are nonexistent as far as Bakugo's aware. There was a rumor/story about someone managing to break through the "outermost wall" and all he saw was endless void before getting sucked back in or sent back home as punishment. Bakugo's not sure if the tale's true or not. If Yato finds out more, feel free to talk plot with him.]

What the hell's "noble" about you? You got blown up and were ogling girls like a creepy old man! [What, you think he missed Yato giving the eye to those showgirls a moment back? AS if.]

Smite yourself and die. [He doesn't believe his ability to do any smiting, though notably doesn't seem to distrust his claims at being a god. Wouldn't be the first one here. Bakugo heads down the stairs, deliberately avoiding the elevator.]

[intertwinedfates]

I'm gonna rise up through the ranks and come out on top, so hah!

[He's nothing if not ambitious, if perhaps a touch overzealous and maybe a little delusional if he thinks things are going to be as simple as that.

If there being nothing but a void outside the resort proves true, that'll certainly put a damper on Yato's plans to force his way out of this place. But one never knows for sure unless they try, so! Nosy McNoserson is gonna snoop until he gets some kind of answers. It seems easier than simply playing the game for months on end all the time, anyway.]

I'll have you know there's plenty noble about me. I rescue souls and train them so they don't get eaten or corrupted! And hey, there's no shame in admiring the beauty life has to offer! [At least he keeps his hands to himself and isn't a total perv? Small wins...]

You just told me not to, you tsundere. [Not quite what Bakugo said, but hey, he's free to tease him about it. Once they're in the stairwell, he hops up on the handrail and starts sliding down on it, glancing at the kid as he passes him by.] How come you didn't take that elevator back there? That's what it was, wasn't it?

[blastedass]

Good luck. You're gonna have to fuck a lot of people to do that.

[Is this his first time hearing about the real reason he's in this place? Whoops. Enjoy having a bucket of cold water thrown over your rising hot dreams. Bakugo berates himself internally for even grumbling the comment out, since now he's stuck with giving Yato the rundown of this thing's perverted tendencies.

Bakugo tried busting through the roof when he first got here, but no avail. Didn't even put a damn scratch on what's supposed to be GLASS, and that was at full strength. It'll take more than one person to get everyone out of this shithole; everyone's going to have to work together to overthrow the House.]

You're some kind of shinigami? [First thing that came to mind. Not gonna comment on admiring beauty. Yato's gonna fit in well if his eyes' already perverted.]

SHUT UP!! ANNOYING!! [Don't call him a "tsun" dammit! If Yato's going to slide down the banister, Bakugo hops the entire railing and drops down the central shaft. Flashes right past Yato all the way down. A single "Boom!" from both hands right before he hits floor pops him back up and breaks his fall, so he can land easily. Waiting for Yato to reach him to answer.]

Something perverted's always in the elevator.

[intertwinedfates]

Huh??

[Apparently the answer to that is, yes, this is the first he's heard of sex being involved. While it would explain why he woke up in close quarters with the kid, it still manages to take him by surprise, sending him to a screeching halt as his grip on the railing tightens momentarily.

Once Yato finds out how damn durable (resilient?) this place/thing is, his bubble's gonna burst like a balloon. Since without his shinki, that leaves only improvised weapons which aren't anywhere near as effective. Though it does make one wonder what they could accomplish with a single, massive attack...]

You might say that. More a God of Fortune, though. Happiness and all that. [Truthfully he could be considered one due to his past, but he's not going into that can of worms. Not with a kid whose name he doesn't even know.]

Bleeeeh~ [Resuming his slide, he sticks his tongue out at Bakugo before the blond jumps the railing, beating him to the bottom by a wide margin. Little punk... Not that it was a competition or anything, but still. He hops off the railing as Bakugo answers, giving him a bewildered look.]

Just what kind of place is this if there's kinky shit in elevators and what's that about sex? [He can't seem to believe his ears. He thought the resort was after their energy! Not... not that!]

[blastedass]

[Enjoy the information. If Yato hadn't figured it out already from the risque elements in surrounding decor, the perverted clothes in the closet, and anything sexual slathered over the sets as they swept out of Golden Hollywood, he's been fairly blind eyed to the entire thing. To say nothing of waking up in bed with someone else wearing scantly nigh-nothing.]

Huh? So you're the one people ring temple bells at and tie papers on trees every New Year? [Complete lack of reverence in his tone. Bakugo's world isn't very focused on religion outside of traditional things, ceremonies, holidays, and the like. Some people have it, but most are far too caught up in superheroes, villains, Quirks, technology, and science to really look further.

Bakugo shoves his hands into his pockets once more and heads for the door in front of them, pulling it open with a foot on the golden petal step at the bottom. The stairs likely assume people's hands are busy with other things, so have alternative options. Pervert.]

It's a fucking sentient monster that kidnaps people and keeps them in this bullshit place to have sex and stress out!! [Okay that's being A LITTLE BIASED, but it's also one version of the truth.]

[intertwinedfates]

[Well, Yato can be painfully oblivious to the truth at times, like his belief in theme park mascots being real... Him not picking up on all the sexual innuendo would not be anything new, although he chalked it up to movie set style everything was in down by the trailers. Naughty movies would make sense?]

Exactly! I bring happiness to people and help solve their problems! [It's a little disappointing he's getting like zero awe and respect, but given Bakugo's snarly attitude, that doesn't come as much of a surprise. Still leaves him pouting and trying to puff up his own importance, though.

Hurrying to catch up, Yato gawks at the explanation, suddenly seeming to put all the pieces together. That explains the lack of clothes, the pervy elevator, the scantily clad ladies, and any other number of things. Still a shocker, however!]

Seriously?? [His voice might have jumped a few octaves there...] Wait, just how old are you, anyway? You can't be more than seventeen, right?

[Worried about him? It's more likely than you might think.]

[blastedass]

[Someday he's gonna have to bust that belief wide open in another place. Not here, because any mascot running around is a fucking pervert Yato's not gonna want to believe is real. Guess he has an excuse for thinking they were somehow on the set of a porno, but now he gets to realize their entire fucking lives here are set in a porno!]

You're gonna be popular here. [Droned in a tone suggesting anything but. Popular? Yes, especially if he continues with the servile mindset of making everyone happy. Problem solving is likely gonna be twisted into something perverted as well. If yato was a god in his own world, he's gonna be dragged down to the mortal realm with a hard impact here.

Bakugo heads out of the stairwell, revealing they're on the ground floor. The lobby, where a lot of hustle and bustle is almost always happening. Where exactly are they going? No real clue. Anywhere to get away from the perverted movie magic going on above them. Maybe he'll go to the Red Cardinal. That place is one of the few in the resort that doesn't tolerate any of the resort's shenanigans. Yato could use a neutral place to get his head around all this.]

I'M EIGHTEEN, YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE!! [Not another bastard freaking out about age and sex!!] YOU LOOK EVEN YOUNGER THAN ME, SO SHUT THE HELL UP!!

[... touchy ...]

[intertwinedfates]

[What a dream crusher he can be...! So rude! So cruel! Though perhaps Yato deserves it for being a bit of an ass to him. It'd be fair payback, honestly. Not that informing him of what their lives are now isn't payback in a way already.]

Oh~? You think so? [Either he's oblivious to the sarcasm or he's choosing to ignore it. Probably the latter. It doesn't do any good to meet trouble halfway, so he might as well look on the bright side of things, right? Even if he's gotta bang fifty-two people to get home, that could be fifty-two more friends! Never let it be said he lacks optimism.

Like a lost puppy, which he kind of is, Yato follows along at Bakugo's heels, taking in all the sights and going-ons around them. It's a lot to adjust to, that's for sure, so he'll definitely appreciate somewhere calm and somewhat sane for him to come to terms with their situation. Somebody less testy would've been nice, but at least the kid isn't withholding all the information from him. He appreciates that, if nothing else.]

I was close...! [Though he can't help preening a bit at being called younger. Hehehe~] It's my youthful good looks!

[Touchy grump, though. Sheesh...]

So... does that mean you've already...? [He makes a gesture with both hands, clearly implying the dreaded word: "sex." Nosy god.]

[blastedass]

Shut up! You're gonna hate it! [And whiplash. Does this guy not get sarcasm or is he deliberately ignoring it?! Bakugo assumes the latter, which only irritates him more. Great, some happy bastard who won't even register an insult levied at him. Why the hell did he have to wake up to this bastard in his bed?! ... If Yato thinks banging fifty-two people is gonna be easy, he's in for a rude surprise. Bakugo doesn't even know if they have enough assigned ranks to make a full deck!

He keeps to the side of the halls, avoiding the middle simply because he doesn't want to deal with any annoyances wandering around in the center. As the hall spills into the house's main lobby, Yato will be able to see the front desk in all its glory, halls to other areas, the sounds of casino machines and restaurants, glittering shops, and a whole bunch of people milling around, from other guests, to the long-standing staff, to receptionists and guards likely magicked up for the event.

He's not lingering in this area...]

Don't judge people based on their looks, dammit! [Says the guy who regularly nicknames people based on their looks. Though no, he doesn't judge them entirely on looks. Yeah he'll call someone ugly or ask what the fuck happened, but Bakugo knows not to base his full opinion on the cover alone.]

PISS OFF!! WHY WOULD I TELL YOU ANYTHING?! [About that at least. Move along! He's swinging towards another hall which heads for the food court.]

[intertwinedfates]

You just want me to suffer, don't you?? [What a total meanie he is...! Not that it seems to bother Yato much, only eliciting a short pout as they walk. He's trying to get a bead on the kid, but he keeps going from helpful to aggressive in no time flat and it's kind of throwing him for a loop. He's even more testy than Yukine is, and that's saying something!

At least the resort itself is plenty to distract Yato for the time being, leaving his mouth gaping at all the glamor and splendor of the place. It's tempting to rush into the casinos and shops, but as far as he knows he has no money on himself, so there's little point in abandoning his surly guide to poke around just yet.]

I'm not! I'm not saying you're too young for this place or anything. Though you kinda are... [He mutters half to himself , eyeing Bakugo in a worried way. Clearly he's thinking this is not the sort of place for someone of his age (and disposition, if he's being honest.) Though frankly it's not exactly somewhere suited for Yato, either, big dork that he is. Or maybe that makes him the perfect candidate. Hard to tell.]

Aw, c'mon! We shared a bed! You can tell me things! [Clearly in his mind that means they're Friends from the get-go. Stop taking liberties, Yato...]
