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.

▶ All characters on the TDM are WILDCARDS, which means they have not yet been assigned a card value. The house is still observing and deciding. As rank and suits are assigned upon acceptance your character's suit will not manifest until they are accepted into the game.
▶ All TDMs are game canon.
▶ If you aren't satisfied with these prompts, please feel free to check out our LOCATIONS to explore more of the resort!
▶ Smut threads that take place on this TDM can be used for rewards. If both parties in the smut thread join the game, you may retroactively apply the character's initial card values to your 52 bank. If one character does not join the game the thread will not be applicable toward rewards (as that character would not have a card value). The character that does join would still receive a small payout for the encounter. Hopefully it was a fun thread regardless!

[Well, she kinda had. A little bit, maybe.
At least it was just a couple pinpricks where the skin broke, and not the complete arc of her teeth. Enough for there to be a bit of blood but not a full drip. Well, if that was going to be the way he wanted it, she simply gave a little shrug.]
Well, as long as you're happy!
[Doesn't stop her from giving his thigh a parting smack as she slides back into her seat, smirking again as she licks her own thumb clean.]
Yeah, yeah, tough guy. You boys and your wanting to get roughed up all the time. Isn't there a word for that kinda thing?
no subject
[ he may be into it, but that doesn't mean it doesn't smart. which of course means he keeps prodding it over and over, like a kid worrying a loose tooth. Turks are smart cookies, and Reno is undeniably bright, no matter what a jackass he acts like, but you really gotta wonder sometimes when he's sitting here effectively going does it hurt when i do... this? ow. how about... this? ow.
that smack gets him to stop, though, finally, barking out a laugh and kicking at her ankle under the table. someone on Aerith's other side makes a grab for the dice to keep the game rolling, and Reno lets them go, even if it'd be nice to skip literally everyone else's turn in favor of some more payback of his own. they can take a breather. just for a minute (or however long it takes for the NPCs to sniff each others knees). ]
You're thinking of "masochist," pretty sure, and yeah, that's me all over. Is this you trying to hint subliminally that Cloud likes it rough, too? Maaaan, I don't need you two in my head like that. You deserve better than that guy.
[ why does he say that affectionately? (because he meant it affectionately. maybe. their rivalry transcends emotion...according to Reno.) ]
no subject
What? No! [there's a brief pause before the rushed follow-up] I don't know!
[Actually she didn't. It wasn't as if she'd ever gotten a chance to ask. Much less test what kind of things Cloud was into. Somehow she doubted pain was on his greenlight list.]
Things I'm not sure I wanted to know about you, but that makes sense. Also he's not my guy. My guy never came home from Nibelheim, remember?
[She gives Reno another play-shove, watching the other patrons and their drunken antics as if she wasn't actually watching them. After a moment, she cocks her head, watching him as she lists towards him.]
So if I did deserve somebody, who would it be? In your professional opinion that isn't actually professional at all, I mean. Or are you planning on chasing off everybody with your shock rod?
1/2
it's for the best. i mean, consider what she just did to his neck for fun. if he told her what he really knows about Zack, what he remembers about how he never came back, she'd do a whole lot worse than that. (or she'd, like... see him differently, since he tried to help, after all, and we simply cannot have that. gross.) ]
Yeah, yeah, I just thought, y'know, you 'n Tifa are the only ones holding that leash, sooooo...
[ hot.
Reno leans back in his seat, finally giving up the incessant urge to prod at the sore spot on his neck, with one shoulder turned to stop Aerith from falling straight into him. go ahead and lean, he's sturdier than he looks. ]
That was my job, wasn't it? Actually, I'd maintain it still is. I don't remember ever gettin' the call to stop, after all. But, eh... wouldn't exactly be fair if I ran everybody off; how're you ever supposed to get any? Especially here. Maybe just the ones that can beat me in a fight, huh?
no subject
Never mind. Not that. I'll come up with somethin' better.
awww reno, she didn't know you cared!
Well just because Tifa and I both like him and I like Tifa doesn't mean it went anywhere. We were kinda busy!
[Did she just say she'd have smooched them both (or more?) if they hadn't been trying to save the world and everything hadn't gotten in the way? Yes, and she'd say it louder too. In front of both of them.]
So I get to tell everyone I meet that they need to beat you up just to kiss me? Gotcha.
[She grins, chuckling a little at the idea, especially remembering the day Cloud fell out of the sky and into her flowerbed, and how that had gone for Reno.]
Well, if you insist.
[She clearly thinks it would be funny either way]
he used to care and then most of the good eggs started dying u_u
You wanna sign an endless line of suitors up for a world of pain, sure, send them my way. I'll set 'em straight. Tell you what, though...
[ yeah let's not remember the day that big stupid dingus fell through the roof. either of them. particularly with regards to how it went for Reno. at least in this continuity, he only got his ass handed to him by Cloud, uh... you know... a handful of times. not at the church. if he ever finds out there's a reality where Cloud tried to take his head off with a sword, he'll—laugh, because that's hilarious actually. ]
The three of you ever do stop being "busy," let me know in advance so I can get a front row seat and I'll consider letting all the has-beens through without a test.
[ what, did you think he wasn't gonna be nasty about it? ]
makes perfect sense
[Fun for her, maybe.
Her nose scrunches up and she shoves his shoulder harder.
Reno! Ew, I can't have you watching me, you'd make it weird! And Tifa would probably knock your head off first, anyway. You'd be making dumb comments the whole time or picking a fight with Cloud and we'd never get anywhere.
[Honestly, she has to laugh about it, because she can't even imagine Reno sitting in the same room with her, Cloud, and Tifa, without something going horribly wrong. Besides, she wasn't sure she wanted to think too hard about the idea of being watched. She's already had enough revelations about herself for one day, she didn't think she could handle another.
Especially if it involved Reno watching! No, absolutely not.]
no subject
Don't say "ew"! The only "dumb comments" I'd be making would be pointers since obviously none of you stooges knows what the hell you're doing. Having me there would be a fucking asset.
[ she's right though and they all know it. any combination of those things would be guaranteed to happen, particularly the part where he and Cloud would be at each other's throats (and probably not in a sexy way).
before they can go full-on slap fight, though, it seems the dice have made their way around the table without much fanfare (the most interesting result was a "caress ass" that ended with an entirely unscripted spank). the person on his other side offers the dice out, and as he takes them, the crimes glint in Reno's eyes is unmissable. ]
I don't think I want you blowing on 'em this time. You're doing witchy shit in secret and messing up the vibes.
no subject
[Oh it would devolve in seconds, Cloud would get mad, Tifa would get suspicious, somebody would end up needing a healing and they didn't have any materia. It'd be a disaster. Maybe something they'd laugh about later, but it would be a mess.
And there's the dice again, Aerith arching an eyebrow as she gave Reno the most unimpressed glare.]
I am not doing any 'witchy shit' you're just being a baby about it.
no subject
[ if only he knew. and if only that were true. it might be sometimes, but then other times he calls Cloud to come over and jumps him like a thug the second he gets in the door, but that's also just how he says hi??? to Cloud specifically, at least.
at any rate, Reno blows on the dice himself, right after he gives Aerith a very mature scrunched nose, tongue stuck out nyeh face, and gives them a careless toss onto the tabletop. whatever "vibes" he's referring to here are absolutely already all over the place, and frankly he wouldn't have it any other way. they get too far down the rabbithole in any regard and that's a whole lot of baggage they're going to need to unpack, and Reno isn't the type of guy to take everything out of his suitcase the moment he gets somewhere. best to just shove all of that aside and use only what he needs in the moment. ]
>Grab
>Knee
[ the crowd is dismayed. someone actually says "boo". Reno glances askance at his roll, then at Aerith, and then into the middle distance. this is one of those times he really wishes he had a cigarette. it feels like the perfect, opportune to light up, take a long drag, and then let it all out in one big huge sigh. ]
...I need another drink.
no subject
[Press [x] to Doubt, Aerith looks so skeptical she could start a wildfire with how dry the look she gives him is. At least before she sticks her tongue back out at him with a soft bleeeeh!
It does not, however, spare him from the smug look she gives him when the dice come to a stop. Not after all the grief he gave her.]
All that fuss and you complain every time you get a roll that you don't like. Whatever happened to getting into the spirit of the game, Reno?
[Her dress gets hiked up to expose her knees, tapping her toes on the floor as she grins at him.]
What, are my knees not good enough for you?
no subject
[ that's the first time he's probably ever said that in his life, and if not for Aerith picking that dress up to show off the gams, he'd probably be having a crisis over it. Aerith's legs are the sole deciding factor between whether he wants to go get absolutely trashed at the bar or sit here and put up with this nonsense, and it's pretty clear which option is winning just based on the way his gaze settles on her legs and stay there, traveling all the way up and back down again.
Reno sighs. sadly sans cigarette smoke, so it isn't as satisfying, but it's still a Sigh, capital S, and that'll have to do for now. then, without absolutely any preamble, he sticks his hand out and drops it right on her knee and squeezes. ]
Your knees are fine. I saw you jab one in some slum-punk's groin once and it's still probably the funniest thing I've ever seen in my life.
no subject
[Honestly the silly results were part of why she'd sat out for so long just to watch! She hadn't wanted to bother playing with anyone before Reno had squeezed in just because there were some combinations she wasn't sure she wanted to try with a stranger.
She'd even begun to waggle a foot enticingly at him to coax him into playing along, and grinned when he followed through.]
It's not my fault if he deserved it! Now gimme.
[Why it had taken Reno to get her into the spirit of things, she couldn't quite pin down, but it was fun getting the really dumb combinations when it was with him.
At least she got Caress Breast, laughing a little. Reno was so lean there was hardly any definition to his pectorals at all, and the t-shirt he wore was even less flattering. This won't stop her, but it does mean she's going to tease him for it.]
You don't even have any!
no subject
[ he'd had every intention of keeping his hand on her knee just to be a pain in the ass (and also because she never said he had to move it), but there's no way he's taking the flat-chested comment laying down. it's true he is not endowed with the pillowy pecs of a guy built much bigger like his partner, who can and probably has torn particularly tight shirts by flexing too hard, but he takes great pride in his perky little puppies. i mean, he must, considering every single thing he wears is designed to flash his so-called cleavage. this t-shirt doesn't, though, and that's a problem.
but not for long, because Reno pulls the collar of the shirt up to his mouth, bites down, and then starts tearing. just to get it started, this shitty cotton neckline is thick, okay—but once he gets it to tear, he pulls it apart with both hands until, rrrrriiippp...
boom. cleavage. ]
There. Best learn some appreciation, you little shit.
[ YOU CAN'T CALL A DEAD GIRL A LITTLE SH—he just did catch him outside how bout that ]
no subject
[Aerith's already chuckling again, and it's not like she can go around giving Reno proper compliments. Everything would get weird between them. Or at least, he'd make it weird, but he somehow manages that with most of their conversations.
Which is why she's not entirely surprised when he gets mad enough to tear his shirt, much to the delight of some of the onlookers while Aerith just looks on with a smile on her face.]
I can appreciate things just fine when there's something to appreciate! Here, let me see.
[If he's going to call her a little shit, then she's going to be one, and the flower girl's vengeance is swift. Reaching over with a hand that was surprisingly cold (unless he'd paid attention to which hand she'd been holding her now-empty drinks with) and slipped it into the brand new plunging neckline he'd given his shirt.
Calloused fingers splayed across his pectoral, smoothing over his exposed skin to palm it properly...until she found his nipple. He had a moment's notice to register her coeurl's smirk before she gave it a swift, playful pinch.]
Well, I suppose you have a pair after all! Not bad, not bad.
no subject
either way, he leans right back and lets Aerith cop her feel, looking as pleased as a pig in shit the entire time. he is damn proud of that chest (he must be, since he's always showing it off) and also, honestly, pretty proud of this fashion choice he's just made, too. wearing t-shirts suck. plunging necklines are the only way to go. (he's probably spent way, way too long in uniform to be comfortable with anything else, especially since Midgar took a dive, but that's a whole different issue.) that pinch actually finally gets a genuine jump out of him, along with a brief but audible sharp inhale through his nose. ain't enough to fluster him, but look, he's sensitive there, alright? ]
You—
[ with one finger, he prods Aerith right in the middle of her forehead to push her head back. ultimately pointless, since it's those damn icy fingers that are the offenders here, but he isn't necessarily out to make her stop. ]
—are a fuckin' menace, even worse than the last time I remember seeing you. I know everybody in this room thinks you're cute, but I know better. You're gettin' away with it now, but I'm not gonna forget this.
