Soft. Warm. Cozy.
The beep of the Watch is gentle, a considerately low sound when rousing newly arrived wildcards while a small vibration tickles the wrist. Satin sheets slide with the lazy stretch of legs. Bedding shuffles. The room is a comfortable temperature but … for some reason, it’s maybe a touch too warm? And cramped?
As characters rouse from their slumber (or otherwise blink into awareness) they will find that they are now in a shitty resort room. They have been temporarily allocated a rank 2 suite. These suites are small and the twin bed takes up the majority of the space inside. Walkable area is minuscule. There is no decor or window. All characters are naked, wearing only a white terrycloth robe knotted at the waist. No details are given other than the above message and a follow-up message explaining GAME 52.
But perhaps that’s not the most alarming part.
They’re not alone.
All characters will find themselves waking up in pairs. Not only have they woken up in an entirely unknown place, they are pressed up against and/or are cuddling what may potentially be a total stranger. Even if a pair is lucky enough to know one other ... pretty awkward waking up together like this, isn't it?
Due to holiday overbooking all characters are required to share a room while the backlog of reservations are processed. Some of these rank 2 suites may even have three temporary residents if you’re feeling spicy.
The resort is truly sorry that they overbooked during the holiday season. This is unprecedented. They have never before seen the house bring in so many new guests at once. Without even a heads up for the staff. It’s like being middle management isn’t worth it! For the sake of avoiding headaches and customer complaints, wildcards will find that each room has an included a gift basket as an apology for the inconvenience.
Wildcards that explore outside will find staff running around like frenzied hens. These employees will encourage wildcards to go wash up in the bathroom, a communal space with plenty of free supplies for newcomers. The communal bathroom is a clean area with multiple open showers, sinks, and water closets. Wildcards will find shelves stocked with basic toiletries and clean towels. They will also find other general bathroom amenities available for use like hair dryers, face masks, scrub brushes, combs, razors, toothbrushes, q-tips, and so on.
All facilities inside the communal bathroom aside from the toilets are open concept and there is no separation based on gender (or anything else). Everyone is expected to share.
Some of the staff will pity these poor new guests that have had their reservations pushed out. They will show characters the way to one of the small supply closets that are used by cleaning staff. The closet is small but fully stocked with linens, extra toiletries, pillows, robes, slippers, and yellow Golden Peacock tracksuits in a full range of sizes. They will encourage wildcards to take whatever they want before running off again.
But those that aren’t careful might find themselves in an interesting predicament.
Wildcards will find that the hallways of the basement are chilly and narrow. Heading to the end of the hallway will reveal a stairwell where they can ascend to check out the main resort. Welcome to the Golden Peacock!

ODDS
ODDS
A bird cries in the distance. Water beads trickle down chilled flesh. Itch itch itch—something pokes your bare ass.
The beep of the Watch is as gentle as it was for the new arrivals that didn’t wake up on the cold hard ground but the sound blends into the rustle of leaves and the gurgle of the river. Unlike their luckier colleagues, some wildcards have unexpectedly woken up in the middle of lush vegetation. Oops! That was a miscalculation. No details are given other than the above message and a follow-up message explaining GAME 52.
Wildcards that wake up in the Vale will be completely naked and without a resort robe to cover up. Lost amid thick bushes, mushroom clusters, and towering trees, it doesn't feel like they're in a resort at all. Isn't this a rainforest? By all accounts, this is a rainforest.
Those that wake in the Vale will have to make their way through the rainforest to find the exit. Really, so unexpected! This was not what we had in our system at all. It must be overloaded from high demand. Our apologies. Please don't complain.
Laughter rings throughout the forest. Footsteps echo. Branches snap. There are other people around aside from you naked newbies. If eavesdropped upon, wildcards may pick up on what these guests are cawing about. It sounds like they’re playing some kind of game.
Wildcards that wake up in the Vale may unwittingly stumble into one of the resort’s popular roleplaying games: Sexy Hunter 💕 and 💕 Sexier Prey.
There are numerous booby traps set around the forest. The goal of the game is to trap your prey and take them home for kinky fun and these guests weren't expecting newbies to suddenly drop in! The traps won’t hurt anyone but they will put them in some embarrassing positions.
After braving the elements and surviving booby traps, these wildcards may finally find civilization. The lounge pagoda where many of the long-standing guests are hanging out and enjoying drinks is comfortable and connected to a bathroom where characters can themselves clean up. In contrast to the naked muddy wildcards, the guests on the pagoda are dressed in trendy and elaborate clothing.
They stare at the newly arrived nude wildcards before breaking into shouts of glee and approval.
“Yes, brilliant idea, it’s a naked party! Whoohoo! Come on everyone. Take your clothes off. All of them! Naked party, naked party, naked party!”
These NPCs will shed their clothing and begin to skinnydip in the pools and river. They will chase each other—and wildcards! Wildcards will find themselves surrounded by an orgy. They will encourage wildcards to join in on the fun and offer them food and drink to get into the mood.
Wildcards will find the exit out to the central hub and elevator bank behind the pagoda. Welcome to the Golden Peacock!

MAIN LOBBY
MAIN LOBBY
The Peacock is buzzing with excitement! The massive main lobby is especially spectacular with golden streamers, dazzling lanterns, glittering ornaments, and cheerful music. There doesn’t seem to be one particular holiday being celebrated with the general theme being winter and holiday. An amalgamate like this resort simply couldn’t select one thing and had to go for everything (more is always better). The hallways and aisles are packed with streams of guests in ostentatious outfits. One can’t swing a cat without hitting someone*.
*No cats were harmed in the making of this TDM. We love cats.
There are sprigs of mistletoe above many of the hallways and doors. Surprisingly, the mistletoe have no supernatural abilities whatsoever, but guests that spy two people beneath the mistletoe together will point and demand they kiss. It’s tradition. Don’t be a downer during the festive season. Succumb to the peer pressure.
Hallways are also decorated with vases of poinsettia flowers. Nothing is amiss about these flowers during day hours, but during late night hours they will pick themselves up and trade vases with each other.
They are polite flowers and try to change when there are no guests around but don’t always manage to do it discreetly. Wildcards may notice something gold glinting in the roots of the scrambling poinsettias. Wildcards who manage to grab these flowers and comb through their roots can collect a simple gold ring (along with shivers of, iyaaaa, we just met, so bold).
Birdbucks is likewise getting into the winter spirit. Despite there being no weather in the resort they are offering seasonal hot drinks! Prices aren’t any cheaper than usual but the quality is better than their standard coffee. They are offering four new delicious new flavors: Buttered Honey Rum Coffee, Peppermint Mocha, Gingerbread Cinnamon Latte, and Rainbow Cookie Cappuccino.
These drinks won’t do anything other than make one wired from all the caffeine, but guests are encouraged to enjoy them around one of the fireplaces set up throughout the main hallways. Many people are snuggling up to the fire while nursing a Birdbucks drink and telling stories. A great way to get to know your fellow guests! Each fireplace is surrounded with festive cushions, beanbags, pillows, and blankets.
"Have you all heard about the Peacock’s annual wish tradition? No? I’m an old-timer around here, let me tell you … see those little jars hanging amongst the lights? You’re supposed to write down your heart’s desire on a piece of paper and stick it into the jar. Then, take a match and light it on fire. They say if you do that you’ll get your desire within the next 12 months. Me? I’m wishing for an older babe, a high rank babe, to become my sugar momma… what, doing it together with someone? Sure. They say that if you do it with someone you’ll have a fated connection forevermore. So don’t do it with someone you don’t like, hah!"
Wildcards will find that that loud guest isn’t lying. Many small glass jars hang alongside the fairy lights and there are multiple tables with paper, pens, and matches.
Guests are scribbling down their desires and stuffing them into the jars, watching with glee as the lit paper crumbles to ash. Couples who put their desires in the same jar are said to have a fated connection forever after so many couples can be found following the tradition. Nothing happens right away ... but who knows? It may prove to be true later.

RED CARDINAL
RED CARDINAL
Those looking to escape from the crowds will find respite in Red Cardinal. Despite being busier than usual, this particular bar remains serene with guests calmly enjoying food and drink. The decorations are minimal with a few red hanging paper lanterns. The proprietress, a handsome woman in her forties, works the bar while watching all guests with an eagle eye. Guests can be loud and out of control in the hallways; they aren’t going to behave that way in her bar.
Due to limited space, all wildcards that come alone looking for a meal will be seated at a two-top table with another wildcard. The menu for the holiday season is preset. All dishes are cooked by the proprietress's own hands, so the aroma has the comforting spice of homemade. She fully expects these wildcards to eat every single morsel. To leave any dish with scraps would offend her.
"Full? What do you mean, full? Look at you. You're so thin! Eat up, don't leave anything behind. Is my food not good enough? What's wrong with it?"
Guests that do not manage to finish the entire holiday spread will be bullied into washing dishes in the kitchen. The amount of dishes to be washed is massive. There is no dishwasher so it must all be done by hand. Wildcards sent to kitchen duty will not be allowed to leave until every dish is scrubbed clean. It's the least they can do after insulting her cooking by leaving food on the plate.
Guests that decide to skip the food and set up at the bar will find dozens of sealed wine jars. The proprietress will share that these wines are her personal make that she only offers once a year. She has not labeled the effects of these wines for her own personal amusement. Guests who wish to purchase a jug must select one based on the name written label, without knowing what may have been added into the mix.
Red Cardinal has all the other usual options as well. They carry basic spirits, beer, and other no-fuss drinks. Characters may also order small bar snacks like nuts and chips.
All jugs have a high APV. Drink too much and you may end up sleeping on the floor of the bar!

LOVE DOVE
LOVE DOVE
Love Dove, the resort's largest department store, is running a massive end of the year sale. All items are between 50% - 70% off, which is a massive bargain for those that are tight on chips!
Stepping inside will transport you away from the busy crowds of the main hallways and into several floors of retail magic. Not wanting to be outdone by competitors, Love Dove has pulled out all the stops to impress during the festive season with massive decorations and mannequin set-ups. Large bows and ribbons, boxes done up in shiny paper, trees and candelabras, sparkles sparkles sparkles. There are also several tables set up around the store offering complimentary glasses of wine and chocolate covered strawberries.
Characters will find a section for every kink imaginable in the store. Gaze in wonder upon the wall of strap-ons. Marvel at the wide shade range of the silicone penises. Bask the rainbow of silky lingerie—for both women and men. There are gadgets and gizmos a-plenty, including some design oddities of Love Dove’s own creation that wildcards may never have seen before. The store even has staged areas for guests to try out some of the more elaborate equipment before buying. While it is not encouraged to use anything insertable before buying for hygienic reasons, guests can turn display toys on to test vibration strength and suction power.
Despite being a sex department store, Love Dove also has several departments dedicated to regular clothing and undergarments. Characters will find decent basics like t-shirts, sweatpants, underwear, jackets, jeans, skirts, shoes, and dresses for slashed prices. Don't miss these deals! The sale ends when the winter festivities end.
At the front of the store there is a temporary section with an elaborate display. Wildcards will find Love Dove promoting masks and feathered costumes. They will hand out fliers inviting all guests the holiday masquerade. Drinks! Food! Dancing! A night that you surely won't forget! New guests simply cannot miss this party. Anyone who is anybody is going to be there.
All those who plan attend the masquerade are required to dress up. In the spirit of the season Love Dove is offering especially good sales on these elaborate costumes. For those with simpler tastes, there are also ballgowns and tuxedos in various prints and colors. The most important article is, of course, the mask.
Staff will encourage wildcards to pay particular attention in choosing a mask that resonates with them.
Masks with effects may be purchased and worn in any of the masquerade prompts.

LOVE DOVE (AT NIGHT)
LOVE DOVE ... AT NIGHT
For all the joy that comes with celebrating the holidays, the jubilant atmosphere can evoke loneliness in one's heart. There are many different kinds of loneliness. The melencholy of missing someone that's died. Sorrow from being parted from your family. The ache of watching the one you love celebrating with someone else. The mourning of being left behind by a friend. These feelings are fleeting in the resort—luxury and hedonism are great distractions—but where do they go after that?
Right now they're manifesting in the sex toys.
Guests browsing Love Dove during night hours will find that some of the sex toys have been possessed by residual loneliness.
Loneliness is a powerful force and it has granted the toys the power to act on their own. Guests had better watch out—as brainless tools gifted a sense of autonomy, all they know to do is fulfill their function.
The sex toys are low level and easy to fight off but please note the you break it you buy it signs posted all over the store. Can you afford to go all out, even with the current deals?

CASINO FLOOR
CASINO FLOOR
The Phoenix Casino has been transformed into a winter wonderland. Trademark royal blue has been replaced by shades of gold and white with pops of bright red lanterns. Guests in elaborate masks and costumes mesh together and then part, reveling in pretending to be someone else for a little while.
All have dressed to impress, sparing no expense in dripping themselves in precious gems and metals. Some of the guests are treated like gods—these are the royal rank guests and the difference in treatment from the rest of the crowd is palpable. These dazzling celebrities take up much of the spotlight, laughing loudly at card tables and shooing away anyone too low of a rank to breathe their air. They don't bother to hide their identities. Why, when they have the best of everything?
There are several game tables set up where crowds are playing and betting. Wildcards are encouraged to join in on the fun and given some grace from social judgement because they have no official rank yet. Some wildcards may even find guests making eyes at them over the table. After all, who knows if the house has been watching and decided that they’re a favorite? Today’s wildcard can be tomorrow’s new 10 rank.
Wildcards may participate in dice games, card games, and roulette in the main casino. Most other typical casino games have been shelved in favor of the special events in private game rooms.
The buffet is massive and decadent. Dishes like lobster and caviar, cuts of filet mignon, kobe beef with white truffles, oysters chilling on real diamonds, bluefin tuna, matsutake mushrooms, pule cheese, and so on. The dessert table is likewise exorbitant with elvish honey cakes, black watermelon, macarons, petit fours, chocolates, eclairs, tarts, soufflé, and flan all sprinkled in edible gold flakes. Dishes may contain aphrodisiac at player discretion.
The bar isn’t lacking either. The resort has created three specialty cocktails for the masquerade. While regular cocktails and spirits are available, staff will encourage guests to give these limited time drinks a try.
Wildcards and long-standing guests aren’t the only ones in attendance. Phantom hands have crashed the party and are phasing through the casino. To be fair, they’re always in the casino. It isn’t crashing if it’s their stomping grounds, right?
The phantom hands are mischievous and in the mood to get into trouble. They will be pinching the waists and asses of guests, tugging on clothes, knocking over glasses, and generally be a nuisance. Their favorite trick is to pin the blame for their crimes on someone else. If they’re not careful, wildcards may be the target or the scapegoat for some of these pranks!

Wildcards may participate in dice games, card games, and roulette in the main casino. Most other typical casino games have been shelved in favor of the special events in private game rooms.
The buffet is massive and decadent. Dishes like lobster and caviar, cuts of filet mignon, kobe beef with white truffles, oysters chilling on real diamonds, bluefin tuna, matsutake mushrooms, pule cheese, and so on. The dessert table is likewise exorbitant with elvish honey cakes, black watermelon, macarons, petit fours, chocolates, eclairs, tarts, soufflé, and flan all sprinkled in edible gold flakes. Dishes may contain aphrodisiac at player discretion.
The bar isn’t lacking either. The resort has created three specialty cocktails for the masquerade. While regular cocktails and spirits are available, staff will encourage guests to give these limited time drinks a try.
Wildcards and long-standing guests aren’t the only ones in attendance. Phantom hands have crashed the party and are phasing through the casino. To be fair, they’re always in the casino. It isn’t crashing if it’s their stomping grounds, right?
The phantom hands are mischievous and in the mood to get into trouble. They will be pinching the waists and asses of guests, tugging on clothes, knocking over glasses, and generally be a nuisance. Their favorite trick is to pin the blame for their crimes on someone else. If they’re not careful, wildcards may be the target or the scapegoat for some of these pranks!
GAME ROOMS
GAME ROOMS
The resort has arranged for four special events during the masquerade. These events take place in private rooms away from the bustle of the main party. There is no advertising about what is in each room and many guests are swept into the momentum. Highly trained staff tending to the door will be quick in prepping wildcards who wander in, giving them little time to realize what exactly they’ve stumbled into before it begins.

Neuvillette | Genshin Impact
[His eyes open and focus as he quickly comes to the realization that this is not his bedroom. Or bed. And he's wearing nothing except a robe. He sits up, long hair tumbling over his shoulders as he looks around. He doesn't quite frown, but he certainly doesn't look overly impressed by his surroundings. Even if he could accept that he was now in some kind of hotel room, where are his clothes?
That's when he notices he's not the only occupant of the bed. Perhaps they have some answers.
He clears his throat, but that doesn't seem to rouse them in the least bit.]
Excuse me. [He waits. Still nothing. Well, he isn't about to shake a stranger awake, that just seems rude and unnecessary, so he simply gets out of the bed, padding across the room to take a closer look at the only thing there: a gift basket of sorts.]
II. Arrival - Closet
[He should have been suspicious when the door to the closet is opened and someone has already been shown inside. But he'd just like to grab another robe and a few other things. So, knowing he'll be quick, he steps inside.
The click of the door closing doesn't immediately cause panic as he says a quiet 'excuse me' to the other occupant so he can grab some towels and robes and turn to leave. The doorknob rattles but doesn't give. The giggling followed by the demand to: “Kiss, kiss, kiss for seven minutes!” quickly follows.]
You cannot mean to keep us locked in here for seven minutes, surely. [His tone is stern and commanding but gets no reply.]
III. Close-Out - Shopping (cw: sex toys)
[Neuvillette had been looking for additional clothing to wear, however, to get to it, he's had to walk through the toy section. He can't help but pause at the row of variously shaped and colored dildoes and strap-ons, narrowing his eyes as he inspects them.]
Are these really supposed to be an approximation of human anatomy?
[He taps the head of one, which is suction-cupped to a surface, making it pop, looking overall unimpressed. He is curious what some of the other things are, strangely shaped objects that humans must also use to stimulate themselves, but he can't quite figure out how one might use them.]
IV. Love Dove at Night (cw: shibari, potential dub/non-con by being tied together)
[He'd say he'd lost track of time looking at the clothing but, really, he hadn't had a set schedule at all. When he goes to leave, however, it is night. Nothing he would usually be concerned about.
He goes to pass a fellow shopper when something catches his ankle. He glances down to see a bit of red rope but while he's still trying to process what he's seeing, the rope tightens, pulling himself and the other person closer before starting to wind around both of them.]
V. Wildcard?
[hit me up on plurk
II. Closet
[Well, this is certainly a way to start the morning.
Wriothesley is still rather wet from his shower and his intention had been to get another towel and maybe just taking one of the gaudy tracksuits until he could find better clothes.
Hearing a familiar voice catches him off guard and he can only adjust the measly robe to try and be a little less indecent.
Instead, he offers the other a smile as he lets the comical situation settle in.] I'm pretty sure they mean to keep us locked here intermittently until we give into their demands, actually. The seven minutes is being generous comparably.
no subject
[Neuvillette hadn't made it to the showers yet, still in the same terry cloth robe they'd all arrived in. For a man who is usually wearing at least three layers even in the warmest months, it is a distressing lack of clothing. The last thing he'd expected was to run into anyone he recognized here. It's both a relief and mortifying, though no one would ever know by his unchanged expression.]
Are you suggesting we should do as they say and give in to their juvenile demands?
[Surely, between the two of them, they could break this door down... but should they? Wherever they are, Neuvillette would prefer they not break any laws the moment after arriving.
He huffs softly, the only hint that this situation is bothering him.]
I agree... Your approach may be our best option. Or we can wait. [He'd seen plenty of humans kiss before. It seemed far from complicated, so he's confident he can manage such a thing.]
If you agree with that course of action, we may commence.
no subject
And he's trying to be...very mindful of his gaze. Look, Neuvillette is an attractive man and Wriothesley is no saint. He has only seen the other modestly dressed, so it's a rare treat to see them so dressed down.]
Do you intend to break down the door? [He offers a lopsided smile.] I suppose we can, but the people who will suffer this are the staff. If you haven't noticed, but it seems like they're already stretched thin. I see this game harmless enough that there's no reason to stress out the staff even more. After all, it is not their fault we are here.
[At least, based on the information at hand, the random staff trying to keep the resort afloat are not the same people who whisked them to said resort in the first place.
Also, he won't deny that the idea of getting to lip lock with Fontaine's Chief Justice is appealing as hell. Sue him. If this is what he ends up being guilty for, so be it.]
You wound me, Neuvillette. [He absentmindedly runs a hand on the collar of Neuvillette's robe.] You make it sound like it isn't even going to be an enjoyable experience.
[Look, he has some pride.]
no subject
[They're both dressed very inappropriately but with it being beyond their control, what could they do?
He is, for the moment, oblivious to the stolen glances, still facing the door, contemplating whether or not to force their way out. He turns to face Wriothesley as he ultimately decides against it and Wriothesley only cements that decision.]
Agreed. And, surely, a kiss is not too high a price to pay. [Spoken suspiciously like someone who has never kissed anyone before.
The strangest thought crosses his mind as his gaze flickers down to Wriothesley's lips, wondering if he hadn't somehow orchestrated this. But as soon as the thought comes forward, he has to wonder why he would ever suspect such a thing. How very strange.]
Will it be? [He's well aware it's an expression of affection but he questions how enjoyable pressing one's mouth against another's can be. His curiosity is piqued and he closes the distance between them, instinctively tilting his head slightly so their noses don't bump as his lips brush Wriothesley's, the kiss light and experimental. Positive that he's in the right spot, he presses their lips more firmly together, letting his instincts guide him. Like most human endeavors, this body does seem to know what to do, even if he might not. His lips part as he tilts his head, licking forward just enough to taste Wriothesley, his head thudding faster in his chest as he does.]
no subject
It's endearing at least.]
It can if you want it to be. Don't think too much about it.
[Wriothesley is surprised when Neuvillette takes the initiative. He thought he would have to take the reigns given Neuvillette's struggles with human emotions, which would mean the man struggled with human intimacy. The boxer lets out a pleased hum as he wraps his arms around the man's neck as he returns the kiss. Honestly? Seven minutes of kissing is a really long time and kind of ridiculous, but they'll make it work.
It's obvious that he has had plenty experience with the way he slides his mouth with Neuvillette's, lips parting with no hesitation when he feels the white-haired man's tongue on them and lapping at the other in return.]
no subject
His hands find their way to Wriothesley's chest, without his usual gloves and in their minimal 'clothing', skin easily finds skin.
His body suddenly reminds him that he's forgotten to breathe and he pulls away somewhat abruptly, the need to take a breath one sensation too many, making him feel strange and overwhelmed. He just needs a moment to catch his breath though he certainly has no desire to fully pull away from him, their lips still practically touching.
He tilts his head, breath shaky and quiet but in the closet, so close to Wriothesley, it's perfectly audible, perhaps he even feels it ghosting across his skin.]
You... were correct. That is... very pleasurable. Are you finding it enjoyable? [The very real possibility that he's not doing this right, that he may not be allowing Wriothesley to enjoy it properly, suddenly plagues his thoughts.]
no subject
He'd be more embarrassed about how needy he suddenly was, but it's hard to feel that way when Neuvillette has barely pulled away and they were practically sharing the same breath as though they needed each other to live. The hands on him burn pleasantly and he finds himself craving the touch.
Was he this wanting for intimacy? He hadn't realized.
Wriothesley lets out a breathless laugh.] You really have to ask? [He playfully nips at Neuvillette's bottom lip. Laps at it with his tongue after.]
Of course I am. [A tilt of his head. A coy smile.] Remember to breath through your nose when kissing. We don't have to stop. [The latter comment is said almost tentatively. He doesn't actually know if Neuvillette cares to do this more than just fulfill the demand to get out.]
no subject
Parting his lips to start to reply to Wriothesley's questions, he's caught completely off-guard and goes still. The light bite surprises him. That it feels good surprises him more. He tilts his head to blink almost comedically at Wriothesley. He's tilted his head back enough to slip one of his hands from Wriothesley's chest to trace a finger over his own lips as a hint of a smile makes his eyes glint.] I see... I'll try that.
[He still sounds breathless, different, voice soft.
The way that bite had felt emboldens him to try it in return, first flicking his tongue out to taste Wriothesley again before returning the light bite. He gives in further, sucking at his lower lip, but he quickly wants more and presses into a full kiss, quickly turning hungry and heated.]
no subject
Wriothesley can't help the groan as the other sucks on his bottom lip, letting his lips part for the Iudex. It's silent permission to let the other experiment more. To deepen the kiss, which he desperately hopes they will do. Suddenly, he feels parched and the only thing that can quench it is to kiss the man pressed against him.
His hands find the back of Neuvillette's head as he tangles his fingers into the long locks of hair.]
no subject
Like the bite, he'd never expect the feeling of someone else's fingers carding into his hair would feel so good. This time the noise he makes is nothing like a growl, it's a moan, needy and lewd sounding to his own ears. It's almost enough to make him stop but this time the desire not to part from Wriothesley wins out.
His careful self-control slips further as he gives himself over to instinct, trailing his hands down Wriothesley's chest.]
no subject
The hand tangled in Neuvillette's hair grips it and he tugs at it as he entwines his tongue with Neuvillette's; a moan of his own escaping and swallowed by the other.
In this close quarters, Neuvillette can smell the way the shampoo he used seems to enhance a certain mix of tea, metal, and ice from the boxer.]
no subject
He pushes back, pressing their bodies flush together, both of their robes barely still tied shut at this point.
When Wriothesley's back thuds against the shelves this time, Neuvillette pushes a hand into his hair, senses suddenly overwhelmed with Wriothesley scent. He breaks the kiss, the fist in Wriothesley's hair guiding his mouth to his neck as he practically nuzzles into his hair, inhaling deeply and breathing him in as he flicks his tongue out to trace the shell of Wriothesley's ear, panting softly.]
no subject
He means to push back again, but the hand in his hair has him going still with a sharp intake of breath. Oh. Oh. His mind goes wonderfully blank for a moment and he can't help but let out a moan as he feels Neuvillette's wet tongue on his skin. The man panting in his ear was going to plague his dreams and he knows it.]
N-Neuvillette. [Wriothesley can hear desperation in his voice and its embarrassing. His hands press to rest on Neuvillette's chest. He can't decide if he wants them there or if he should push them away. He should push them away. If the other keeps this up, there's no way he won't pop a boner.]
no subject
He feels Wriothesley's hesitation, his hands against his chest, but he just smells so unbelievably good. He doesn't want to pull away.]
Tell me what you want. [The demand comes out differently than intended. 'Do you want this' is what he'd meant to say. No. This is better. He wants Wriothesley to tell him what he wants. He nuzzles into his hair, inhaling as he slips a hand into Wriothesley's open robe, fingers brushing over his skin, hungry to explore more of him.]

iii.
[He points to one of the very... sizeable ones. The ones that are clearly meant to be nonhuman and even fantastical.]
Those are for when someone wants to imagine they're fucking a dragon, or something. For fun.
no subject
He looks to the stranger before trying to follow his gaze. Ah, yes, some of these were vaguely phallic shaped but very, well, different.]
If these are meant to be a representation of dragons, they're quite far off as well.
IV
At that point all she could do was sigh, her shoulders slumping. It was probably best to wait until the rope had finished knotting itself before trying to undo it, unless she wanted her hands bound up in it again.]
Well, that's not exactly how I'd like to introduce myself to handsome strangers.
[When she looked up to meet his gaze, her expression was deeply apologetic and her smile lopsided.]
Sorry for grabbing you like that, are you okay?
no subject
You're too kind. I feel as though I should apologize for the situation we've found ourselves in. [He looks down at her, expression unintentionally fierce despite sounding polite. His annoyance is at these magical little tricks and not her.]
I'm unharmed, but whatever is happening does not appear to be done. Are you alright?
no subject
[He is almost unfairly pretty up close, finding herself momentarily stunned as she takes in the waterlike shimmer to his hair and the ferocity of his gaze. At least she knew the glare wasn't aimed at her, though she still felt her cheeks flush and she murmurs a soft apology before placing her free hand on his shoulder to keep them both more stable as she tried to sort out the ties by twisting. If she had her head ducked, he couldn't see her blush.
Sadly she didn't have much luck figuring out the ropes from their current position. She couldn't turn far enough to look at the ropework without threatening to drag both of them down, and instead simply lets out a sigh.]
Do you want the good news or the bad news?
no subject
[Surely, she would've mentioned it by now.
She feels so warm pressed against him, a wholly unfamiliar sensation, but far from unpleasant. The ropes, however, were less comfortable.
With a soft grunt, he tries to resist as a rope tightens, forcing his leg to bend. In order for them not to topple over, it's just easier to let the ropes slowly cause them to sink to the ground. Their legs are entwined at first, Neuvillete ending up on the ground with Aerith lying on top of him.]
You were saying? [He manages to shift enough to help brush some of her hair out of her face.
The ropes seem to have some master plan, because they wind and shift again, binding his poor partner's legs in a bent position, forcing her to straddle him. He attempts to help her, trying to pull some of the rope away from her arms, but it ends up winding around his wrist, pulling his hand down between them. He sighs in frustration, looking up at her apologetically.] I'm so sorry. That was not my intention.
no subject
[He bent and the ropes went slowly taut, and she wasn't sure if that was better or worse than the sudden tugging that had happened when she'd first been snared. Either way it meant the ropes went tight for a second, her hand gripping his shoulder as a shiver went through her and she bit her lip as he took her down with him.
Being sprawled across him did not help at all.
Or rather it did, sort of, but Aerith had to bow her head and mutter a quiet prayer to get her breathing back under control. There was no helping the flush on her face and ears. It was still darkening across her freckled cheeks when he brushed her hair out of her face, and she managed to meet his gaze even if what she really wanted to do was bury her face in his chest to hide until she recovered her composure.]
I was going to say at least I still have a hand free and—ah?
[Her ankles suddenly bound themselves to her thighs and on any other day she might have been smug about this. Would have been delighted. But instead she's straddling a very devastatingly handsome man and trying not to think about the moan that had just torn out of her throat when her legs had been tugged apart and she'd landed heavily in his lap.
So she holds up a hand in a silent request for a moment to gather herself, not at all trusting her voice and hating the way the limb trembled.]
I-it's fine.
[She has to clear her throat when her voice came out ragged and breathless.]
It's fine. Not your fault.
[If anything else moves she's not sure if she'll be able to bite her lip hard enough to keep herself quiet.]
no subject
She raises her hand and for a moment it's quiet save for their shaky breaths. He can't help but focus on her lips, the flush across her face, finding it all extremely alluring. Surely, the ropes are doing something; he doesn't understand these sudden desires that have come over him.
The ropes shift ever so slightly but it's enough to shift her weight on him and he only manages to half bite back a groan of his own, having to shut his eyes for a moment to force his body to remain still, a task that's starting to become exceedingly difficult.]
You sound... distressed. [He knows that isn't a noise one makes when they're distressed, but he's unsure what other word would be appropriate to use. He opens his eyes to look at her again, pupils wide. He makes the mistake of trying to adjust just a little to a more comfortable position but their hips move and he makes another soft noise in the back of his throat as the tiny movement hints at pleasure.] Perhaps we could... help... one another in some way.
no subject
That's ah...that sure is one way to put it. I mean, I'd be happier about it if we'd both been asked if we wanted to get tied together first. It's a bit much for a first meeting, right? You seem really handsome and nice but I normally have at least one date before coming on to somebody, you know?
[Her laughter is breathless and she rambles like she's nervous, but she's trying not to squeeze his hips with her knees as the desire to clap her legs closed grows. It was a little mortifying being sprawled on top of him like this, trying to figure where his hand had ended up and if he noticed she was struggling not to squirm.
At least she could keep herself boosted off of him with her free hand, to give him a little more space. Even then they were close enough that she had an excellent view of when his pupils blew wide. He really was unfairly pretty.]
I suppose this might be a weird time for introductions, huh? So, uh, what do you have in mind for helping each other, big guy?
no subject
