WINDING MARKET

A ROOKERY COMES SPRAWLING

A CHARMING MARKET

► The Rookery floods the main lobby and begins construction on the eve of November 15th. This wandering group of merchants has decided to set up shop! From November 15th through January 1st, the Rookery will be operating a marketplace on the ground floor of the Golden Peacock. This marketplace operates at all hours and does not close.

► This once luxurious lobby has transformed into a rustic market. Wooden shops line the walls where eager merchants promote their wares. These little stores are stocked with handcrafted goods, specialty products, and artisanal treats. Unlike general Golden Peacock establishments, shops in the marketplace are willing to haggle and trade.

► Not all of these booths are occupied. Guests interested in selling their crafts or services are welcome to open up shop. The merchants of the Rookery will also hire resort guests looking for work.

CEDAR AND PINE

► This simple marketplace embraces small town charm. The scents of wood and pine meld with freshly baked bread and leather. The echo of a blacksmith striking metal resounds through chatter and laughter. Shopkeepers call and wave from their booths to lure in potential customers.

► Weather simulation has been introduced to the first floor. Snow falls from an artificial sky dotted with lights. This snow looks, feels, and tastes like the real thing. The temperature correspondingly drops to a brisk chill, so bundle up!

► Merchants decorate their shops with winding ribbons, baubles, and bells at the beginning of December. A massive pine tree graces the central square and patrons are invited to decorate it with sparkling ornaments.

Rumor of a gifting tradition spreads, with merchants jumping on board to offer gift wrap with every sale. If you don't give someone you care about a thoughtful present then you must not really like them at all!

SPECIALTY SHOPS

LIMITED TIME WARES

PREPARE FOR DUNGONEERING

► One of the biggest stores in the marketplace is the armorer's shop. It isn't safe to go adventuring in an unexplored dungeon without protection! Come one, come all. The best armor in town is here. The marketeers in the armorer's shop swear their supplies are the best in the business. Well-crafted! Quality materials! Enchanted to ward off the elements!

All available armor is extremely slutty. Every piece has been styled to emphasize the wearer's assets and barely covers anything. Tight, sexy, and functional. Isn't it a win/win for all? Let those tits battle and breathe!

► Guests that follow the sound of clanging metal will find the blacksmith. The front of the shop offers a basic selection of knives, swords, and shields for purchase. While the quality of these weapons is mediocre at best, guests may not want to pass up the opportunity to purchase a weapon while the house is allowing it.

Weapon aficionados may meet with the blacksmith to discuss enhancing the current selection. Special materials can be found in dungeon chests or collected from monsters to improve weapon quality. Guests willing to collect these materials and have the chips to spare can commission superior products.

► Several leather shops are competing for business. One specializes in enchanted leather pouches, another focuses on offering high quality boots. Leather journals make beautiful gifts. What lasts longer than leather clothing? Nothing! Or how about a leather hair accessory for that person with long, flowing locks?

Those browsing through these many leather shops best keep their wits about them. Not all of them are selling real leather! Some greedy merchants are trying to pass off plastic junk as the real thing. A few bold charlatans willing to lie about enchantments to customers that appear uneducated about magic. Do your best to not get swindled!

DRIED AND BAKED SUNDRIES

► The dried goods shop is the most popular amongst adventurers. Those preparing to head down into the dungeon can't leave without supplies, after all! One can find a broad selection of jellies, jams, preserves, cheese, jerky, nuts, and seeds. While they aren't the tastiest, they'll survive for several days in a backpack, which is exactly what every adventurer needs!

► The universe-renowned baking mogul, Mama Brot, has opened a shop selling her famous pretzels. These soft pretzels, nicknamed breastzels, come in both sweet and savory variations. They are deliciously plush and melt in the mouth. It's said that one bite of one of her pillowy breastzels will send you straight to heaven. Dessert and bread connoisseurs cannot miss out!

Guests eager to get their hands on some of Mama Brot's breastzels have their work cut out for them. The shops restocks with fresh breastzels every morning, but the line to purchase starts queuing two hours beforehand. Supply runs out quickly every time Mama Brot decides to whip up a new batch. Good luck!

► Small bakeries peppering throughout the marketplace kick off December with a flurry of decorated cookies. Guests will find cookies and biscuits cut into different shapes, painted with icing, smeared with jam, and drizzled with chocolate. Hot chocolate booths also pop up, their baristas encouraging guests to gather and enjoy the snow by the center market tree with a cozy drink.

JOBS & QUESTS

A MAKESHIFT TAVERN

CALLING ALL ADVENTURERS: A SLAYER QUEST AWAITS!
Are you looking to make big coin? Do you have the strength and endurance to take on the dungeon? Then we want YOU to join our guild's quest to sLay!

The dungeon is teeming with sexy monsters that need sLaying. All you need to do to sLay is to fuck them real good! Once satisfied, these sexy monsters may drop quality loot. Join in the hunt to sLay and consolidate drops with our guild! We're happy to make trades or buy.

Yaaassss sLay all day!

JOB POSTING ONE! BIG PAYOUT FOR EASY WORK!

I am a pharmacist looking for some brave adventurers willing to go down into the dungeon and collect dongle flower milk for me. I need at least 10 bottles! This is an important ingredient in one of my popular prescriptions. I am not athletic enough to go get it myself and my supplies are running low.

Please deliver all dongle flower milk to the medical shop in the northwest corner of the market. Please note, I need FULL bottles. Do not skimp or I won't pay!

JOB POSTING TWO! HELP A WOMAN'S GROWING BUSINESS!

I am a young lady looking to expand my make-up business. I heard rumors that there's water in the dungeon that could make an AMAZING base for make-up products. But it sounds like it's super scary in there and I don't want to go. Please, someone, help!

You can bring all bottles of dungeon water to the make-up booth in the southeast corner of the market. I'm willing to pay in chips or trade some of my current products. My face masks and nail polishes are really good!

JOB POSTING THREE! PLEASE DON'T ASK WHY!

Hello. I need many dungeon slime cores, so I am looking for everyone and anyone willing to go slime hunting and gather some for me. We can negotiate pay based upon the number of slime cores brought. Do not inquire what the slimes or their cores are needed for.

Please bring all slime and slime core deliveries to back door of the Dried and Baked Sundries shop. Thank you!

JOB POSTING FOUR! I WANT COLLECTABLES!

If you're going into the dungeon, I want collectables. If you find that fabled treasure room, bring me back something cool and shiny. I'm willing to pay good money! I don't care what it is as long as it's hard to get and I can brag to my friends about it.

You can find me drinking in the tavern. I'll be wearing expensive velvet and a tiny hat with a feather.

PULL UP A CHAIR

► As a watering hole for adventurers looking for a place to kick back and relax with a hot beer, the tavern is a hot spot at all hours. Crude and sticky, there's never a dull moment at this establishment! Fights break out every night, drinking competitions are the norm, and it's the best place to gather information.

The tavern doubles as an inn, offering a dozen rooms above the bar for adventurers to cool their heels. A night's stay is relatively cheap and costs only a handful of chips.

► Guests can pick up jobs and quests from the tavern's request board. Postings vary in difficulty and payout. Anyone is welcome to pick them up and they can be completed for as long as the dungeon is active.

► Jobs and quests can be completed through the dungeon prompts below. They may be done multiple times. These job posters need a lot of supply!

► Guests can also list their own jobs and quests to the tavern's request board. While the board is typically meant to attract adventurers for hire, guests can advertise their own services this way. The bartender really doesn't care what goes up. She's too busy breasting boobily behind the counter in a corset that hikes her cleavage against her throat.

A WHOLE NEW BASEMENT

GOOD LUCK, NEW ARRIVALS

A TRENDY RENOVATION

► Low rank guests will be delighted to find that the basement has been completely renovated! Basement and maintenance floors have been converted into a realistic dungeon complete with gray stone, torchlight, and the echo of crawling monsters. Low rank suites have been temporarily adjusted to match the aesthetic.

► The communal bathroom has also been styled into a medieval latrine. Low rank guests can now enjoy bonding together over a communal trench and chamber pots. A helpful sign has been posted on the door advising guests to be wary of slimes coming up through the piping.

► Low rank guests that aren't happy with their living arrangements can check out the rooms above the tavern. They need only chat with the bartender and pay a fee for each night they wish to stay. It's up to them whether or not they think a dungeon filled with monsters or a raucous tavern is better for their beauty sleep.

NEW ARRIVALS

► New arrivals find themselves waking in various locations throughout the dungeon. Unlike low rank guests who have dungeon suites, new arrivals wake randomly in the upper and lower levels of the dungeon. Anywhere is fair game.

► New arrivals are considered dungeon monsters. In fact, wildcards are the number one hunted monster for the extremely popular sLaying quest! They'll have to keep on their toes if they don't want to be sexily sLayed.

► Stepping away from resort standard, wildcards wake dressed to embody their role as an erotic dungeon monster. The house knows that its guests have eclectic tastes, so monster costumes range from skimpy strategically placed furs to full body suits.

► What are dungeon monsters without drops? Wildcards will also wake with a pouch of valuables for adventurers to collect. These items can vary from useful ores, gemstones, and chip vouchers to random items like condoms, vegetables, and shiny rocks.

UPPER DUNGEON

START THE DESCENT

FLOOR 1

Heading down the stairs from the marketplace leads to the first floor of the dungeon. This is where all low rank suites have been condensed. Corridors are generally dry and well lit, with twisting ivy and torches lining the walls. Some guests say that it’s an improvement over the previously dreary, dirty basement.

Only a handful of monsters are brave enough to come close to the surface. The ones that do have low IQs and are easily defeated.

---

► Barrels, crates, and chests can be found in corners and intersections. Low value materials, like perishables and basic clothing, can be found inside. This may or may not include the personal items of low rank guests misplaced during renovations. Whoops!

Watch out! Mimic chests love to hide amongst these crates. Opened mimic chests chase nearby guests, desperate to thrust their slimy tongues into any reachable orifice. They’re also quite dumb, happily repopulating areas where other mimics have been beaten. It isn’t uncommon to find a new one where an old one had been just yesterday!

► Sprigs of mistletoe grow over doors and dangle from the ceiling. Nothing happens when someone passes alone. The enchantment is only triggered when two or more people intersect. Those who cross under the mistletoe may find themselves unable to leave its proximity. As if an invisible bubble has appeared, attempts to leave will be rebuffed.

The mistletoe enchantment can only be broken by kissing. Some mistletoe may be satisfied with a brief kiss while others may require its victims to use tongue. Get ready for some smooching!

FLOOR 2

Multiple stairways across the first floor lead down to the second. As guests head down, they will find the temperature dropping and light dimming. The stairwell opens up to a reveal crumbling archways, staggered levels of ruins, and rich moss blanketing over stone.

This dungeon floor has several gaps between ruins and multiple pockets of open space. Old wooden bridges creak in the wind. Leaves flick across, carried on steady breeze. Treasure chests and harpy-like monsters can be found throughout the ruins.

---

► Adventurers need to cross multiple bridges to make it to the next portion of the dungeon. However, they will find that they cannot cross these bridges alone. All bridges in this area vanish the moment someone steps out solo. Luckily, falls to the ground are cushioned by a thick blanket of moss.

Adventurers must step forward together, hand-in-hand, in order to cross. Guests that stop holding hands while crossing, hesitate, or mistrust one another will find the bridge vanishing from beneath their feet.

► Wind speeds spike dangerously at random intervals and send the floor into sub-freezing temperatures. During these times, it is advised that adventurers take cover, because they might end up blown away. There are sporadic abandoned campsites in caves and alcoves where guests can wait out the wind.

These campsites serendipitously offer a cozy bedroll. One cozy bedroll. With howling winds knocking out torchlight, the only way to keep warm is to cuddle up and share body heat. Oddly enough, the furious winds only calm down after adventurers snuggle. Weird!

FLOOR 3

Lush vegetation dominates the third floor. Pathways are challenging to follow beneath overgrown flora. Ancient trees twist between crumbling pillars. This dungeon forest is teeming with sexy floral monsters that blend with the brush and provoke adventurers with sensual whispers. Isn’t it amazing how accurate they are in pinpointing your kinks?

Monsters on this floor love to tease and fondle guests passing through. Adventurers cutting through the forest may end up groped by branches, leaves, and flowers. Or more! These floral monsters can get very handsy.

---

► Treasure chests can be found throughout the dungeon forest. The floral monsters will try to protect them, but none of the monsters in this area are particularly strong. Wood nymphs seduce guests away from chests and vines will lash out to slap their hands. Chests on this floor are valuable, offering high-quality potions like elixirs and panaceas.

Not all potions are good. Some bottles are decoys that cause unwanted effects. The three most common decoys are love potions, hatemance potions, and flora potions.

LOVE POTION: A magical liquid designed to make the person who drinks it fall in love with the first person they see.

HATEMANCE POTION: A magical liquid designed to make the first person who drinks it fall into hate, coupled with passionate sexual desire, for the first person they see.

FLORA POTION: Liquefied chlorophyll designed to temporarily transform anyone who drinks it into a sexy monster. Monster need not be plant-based.

► An invasive species, the dongle flower, can be found in large number in the center of the forest. This flower’s fleshy petals phallically cone into one another and stand erect from a small cluster of leaves at its base. This flower is mostly known for its milk, which can be collected by pumping its petals. Those unfamiliar with this breed of flora may mistake it for a human penis, but closer investigation will confirm that it is indeed a plant.

Getting to close to the dongle flower comes with risks. This flower is notorious for ejaculating its milk when stimulated. Dongle flowers in close proximity may trigger one another and cause a chain of milk ejaculations. Dongle flower milk has analeptic properties that heighten virility, sensitivity, and sex drive. The more milk, the more potent.

LOWER DUNGEON

HALFWAY DOWN

FLOOR 4

A slope leads the way down to the fourth floor. Adventurers must be careful with their footing to avoid taking a spill because the path is steep and uneven. Why are these stones sticking up so much, anyway?!

Guests not watching their step may end up triggering a trap. After a trick stone sinks beneath their weight, a rumble echoes throughout the dungeon. This echo the ominous prelude to a giant boulder crashing down and rolling after them! (There is a nipple painted on the boulder.)

Those that don’t want to get squashed by the boulder may have to throw themselves off the ledge. Depending on where they decide to jump ship, they will end up in a different chamber designed to test their mettle.

---

► CHAMBER ONE: An unfurnished room with no windows or doors. This chamber is deep, making it difficult to try and scale the walls back up to the path. Lone adventurers will end up stuck until someone else joins them, because the trap will not trigger until two or more guests are inside.

Once at least two guests are trapped, spikes spring from two opposing walls. They slowly begin to close in and a booming voice declares: BE EMOTIONALLY VULNERABLE OR DIE!

The floor will give way for guests that comply. Those that do not and cannot get out of the room on their own will be spiked. They may escape with injuries or die. If the latter, they will revive in the Broken Wing clinic.

► CHAMBER TWO: This chamber is divided into multiple parallel rooms. These rooms are designed to facilitate a specific kink between the guests trapped inside. They might be furnished with toys or vacant with only a gloryhole in a partition. Regardless, every room has a door locked shut with a bulky padlock.

After two guests have entered a booming voice declares: EXPLORE KINK OR REMAIN TRAPPED FOREVER!

Padlocks will drop and doors will open for guests that comply. Those that do not are doomed to be trapped forever… or figure a way out through demolition. That disembodied voice is going to be really salty when adventurers realize that last option exists.

FLOOR 5

Water commands the fifth floor. Adventurers must tread through dark and damp tunnels that lead into flooded chambers. Pools and rivers run throughout, with some areas reaching depths of 50 feet. Treasure chests are submerged but are worth the effort, offering ores, metals, and rare stones that can be used to enhance weapons with the blacksmith.

Reverse mermaids live in these waters. They enjoy swimming alongside adventurers and spreading their legs to show off how good they are for fucking.

---

► Slimes ooze along the ceiling and plop into the water. They float along like jellyfish, but will direct themselves toward adventurers they sense nearby. Slimes vary in size and color, though the majority are small enough to cup between two hands. The mother slime, a giant slime hidden deep in the depths, occasionally appears to absorb adventurers into her gelatinous body.

Small and deceptively cute, these little monsters are attracted to adventurers and eager to ooze all over them. Different colored slimes and their secretions cause various physical reactions. Slimes can be mixed to create combination effects.

CLEAR SLIME: Clear slime is an aphrodisiac that can also be used as a lubricant.

PINK SLIME: Pink slime amplifies shyness and embarrassment.

PURPLE SLIME: Purple slime triggers sexual aggression and sadistic tendencies.

YELLOW SLIME: Yellow slime may enhance dominate or submissive inclinations.

MOTHER SLIME: Secretions from the mother slime trigger a breeding rut/heat. The more contact one has with the mother slime, the more intense the rut/heat.

► The water in this dungeon has unique properties. Adventurers that soak for long periods of time may find their skin clearing up, their hair becoming shinier, and their features becoming dewy and radiant. This water is imbued with beauty magic that intensifies the sexiness of those who drink or bathe in it. Everything they do, even sneezing or scratching an itch, will be tinted in a pink glow of attractive glamor.

Guests that soak for too long run the risk of becoming powerfully distracting. Beauty can be bewitching, so take care to not charm other adventurers into becoming obsessed admirers, lest you become an unwitting Helen of Troy!

Drinking the water comes with an additional potential side effect. The drinker's voice has a 25% chance of becoming hypnotic. They may be able to entrance others or cause them to orgasm through dirty talk alone.

FLOOR 6

Drying off won't be a problem after getting down to the sixth floor! The temperature jumps to a sweltering degree and light glints off silvery glass. Orange and red flicker and dance. Stepping into the yawning mouth of this massive floor reveals a giant pit of blazing fire beneath a twisting mirror maze.

Muscular minotaurs prowl, prepared to kidnap adventurers and whisk them away to their dens. This maze is also equipped with traps and enchantments designed to redirect guests back to the beginning entrance. Adventurers will need to use creativity and ingenuity to navigate this labyrinth while battling intense heat.

---

► Guests can take cover in small chambers at maze corridor intersections. These rooms are also sweltering but, happily enough, there are magical air conditioners available! Two plates on opposite sides of the room must simultaneously be stepped on in order to activate the ice enchantment.

Comfort comes with a price. Something strange happens when magic sparks: the adventurers standing on the activation plates have swapped bodies! They won't be able to switch back immediately, either, because the ice enchantment has a cool down period. Their options are to either wait it out or go find another room with an unused ice enchantment!

► Adventurers that successfully navigate their way through the maze will find a long corridor leading to a massive shining door. They've found the exit down to the treasure room where riches upon riches are waiting. Money, money, money!!

Guests that let their guard down while walking to the door may end up shot with an arrow! In classic dungeon fashion, holes in the wall open and launch arrows all the way down to the entrance of the treasure room.

Getting shot by an arrow will trigger lust at first sight! Forget about everything else and look at your fellow dungeon crawler. Aren't they so erotic? Don't you really want to fuck them right now and forget about all that treasure? Or perhaps they're still rocking around in your swapped body. Isn't it suddenly tempting to fuck yourself?

TREASURE ROOM

IT DEFINITELY ISN'T CURSED

FLOOR 7: THE BOTTOM FLOOR

The final floor of the dungeon is a massive chamber glittering with precious gems, metals, and enchanted valuables. Piles and piles of gold coins are stacked as far as the eye can see. Treasure chests line the walls, overflowing with sparkling jewelry. Anyone that’s ever wanted to swim in piles of gold can finally make their dream come true.

Guests can take whatever they can carry. They have to make their way back up through the dungeon with it, so hopefully they came prepared!

---

► Brave adventurers that managed to come this far deserve worthwhile gains. Those who enter the treasure room are welcome to pick up special treasures from the following selection. None of these items are game breaking, so players can pick up multiple or mix and match.

ECHO STONE: A small stone that fits in the palm of a hand. When tapped, it sends out a soft pulse that outlines nearby exits, hidden passages, or alternate routes in shimmering light.

EARRINGS OF FATE: A matching pair of diamond studs. If shared between two people, the wearers can sense each others’ location all times.

CLOAK OF INVISIBILITY: Shimmering silver fabric as smooth as water. Wearing this cloak grants invisibility.

THONG OF BRONZE: A bronze thong. Wearing this thong increases power, endurance, and speed, but only when worn alone.

RING OF PROTECTION: A simple gold ring enchanted to protect the wearer. While this is useful during battle, it also can act as birth control and prevent sharing diseases.

CLICK LOCK LOCKET: A simple golden heart-shaped locket. The wearer can open the locket and give themselves temporary body modifications for up to two hours at a time.

MECHANICAL MOUSE: A mechanical mouse that registers its master with a drop of blood. A little friend that can scout, transport small items, and fit into tiny spaces.

BRASS COMPASS: A small brass compass with delicate gears. It doesn’t point north. Instead, it points to the carrier's deepest desire or the object they seek the most.

FEATHER OF FLIGHT: A delicate feather that feels lighter than air itself. Grants the ability to fly for a short period but the user must have it in their possession and activate it. Works in bursts, such as allowing them to jump across wide gaps or avoid a deadly fall.

HAND OF LUCK: A small, silver broach shaped like a human hand, fingers outstretched in a gesture of good fortune. The hand grants increased luck to the user, influencing dice rolls, odds, or even the outcome of risky decisions. However, it only works once per day. When it activates it may make other things worse.

► An iridescent door glitters at the back of the treasure room. Written on an aged scroll pinned to the wall is an explanation that this door can send adventurers home. They will have abandon their companions for this opportunity, because one who uses the door must pass through alone. The scroll explains that the door will only work once within a span of several hours, making it impossible for anyone else to immediately use it. There is also the risk that it will never work again.

Of course, the door isn't really sending anyone back to their world. Guests that decide to take the leap will find themselves walking straight into their suite upstairs. The scroll didn't specify which home!

Scarlet El Vandimion 🌹 May I Ask For One Final Thing? 🌹 New Character

[ice_rose]

🌹 Lower Dungeon | Fifth Floor

Unsurprisingly, she wakes up in the lower dungeon, dressed in bright red skin tight leather scale and a fake dragon 'tail' that hugs every inch of her curves. She'd say it wasn't ladylike except for how very apparent the fact that she is a lady is in this outfit.

...more importantly, she can move in it and her skin can breathe. She's less of a fan of the fact that her half gloves appear to be missing but... nothing for it. She will have to make do. More blood on her knuckles; so be it.

She ends up splashing herself more than a little in some of the puddles, unaware of the effect. She might not even notice that her voice has power when or if she talks to someone; she drinks purely because she's thirsty, having just woken up. Not that she has any clearing up for her skin, or her hair to become shinier, and her features are already rather radiant; one does not get called the Ice Rose for nothing, after all. But that might be why she's beset by slimes after a certain amount of time.

She dodges the first few: clear, pink, purple, yellow- they're small enough and easy enough to simply dodge. But even her formidable abilities don't catch onto the mother slime before it manages to dive in the way of one of her jumps and she's got her fist halfway into the goo before she feels the effects. It sucks in half of her arm and most of her leg before she manages to push herself off and away, the slime releasing with a wet pop that makes something between her legs squirm and slick.

What- whatever is this burning drive? She's never felt anything like this before, at least about something other than beating the hell out of people! ...she has to find someone to scratch this itch now.

Run.

🌹 Upper Dungeon | First Floor

It's no wonder that she makes her way up and out of the dungeon, though how much of her clothing has survived given the journey up (and her adventures during them, is anyone's guess. Very little stops Scarlet when she's moving, though unfortunately the mistletoe is one of those things. She tries everything: acceleration, reversing time- none of it will let her out of the mistletoe's range. Not that she's aware of what the hanging plant is.

Which is why she's turning to her new companion, ice-blue eyes flat and determined.

"Tell me: do you know how to escape this strange invisible cage?"

🌹 Wildcard

[ ooc: feel free to put her anywhere and ping me on yarnzipan if you care to plot. Thanks!]

First Floor

[noneforyou]

Xue Yang had just been trying to make sure all the supplies that he had stashed in his room are still there; it wasn't supposed to be an eventful trip whatsoever. Well, not like things tend to go how they're "supposed to" around here.

He'd walked down this corridor on the way to (what remains of) his room, so he had no reason to be wary of the same space on the way back. But he and this woman pass each other at just the right, or rather wrong, spot, and suddenly Xue Yang finds himself being pushed a step backwards by an invisible force.

He gives a quick glance over his shoulder to verify that she also seems to be taken by surprise at this development before focusing back in front of himself with a roll of his eyes. He doesn't put too much effort into any escape, though that's not to say there's none either: he presses forward experimentally to see just where the boundary is and if he can push his way through it, and when that fails, he forms his hand into a seal and his fingertips glow a slight green. But whatever was supposed to happen clearly doesn't.

"We fuck, probably." Xue Yang doesn't sound too bothered as he says the reply, sparing only another slight glance towards his fellow captive before turning back to the space he was focusing on. "You new here?"

Re: First Floor

[ice_rose]

She looks at him as if she'd just noticed him being there, icy blue eyes neither upset by the profanity nor by the insinuation that a lady like herself might engage in such unladylike actions. For one, she's always been of a mind that she, as a lady, defines what is a ladylike action, such as 'beating the shit out of people who annoy her' and for another, after one has spent several hours riding minotaurs into submission to sate the desires brought on by a mother slime secretion... really, she's well and truly broken through that barrier of concern.

All the same-

"I am, yes. I arrived earlier today," she explains thoughtfully, looking at the space of the hallway around them. She's not considering escape; she's considering where, exactly, they could have sex that wouldn't be irritating in some fashion. The floor might scuff her knees and she's unsure if their little bubble reaches a wall. She sighs.

"You've freed yourself from such an apparatus before that way?"

[noneforyou]

"Kind of. The answer in this place is usually to fuck."

Xue Yang isn't the sort to carry around any sex toys that would help prove his point here, the closest being the latex gloves on his hands (useful for handling those pesky slimes and anything else that likes to activate through skin contact) which were certainly intended to be kinky when he was sold them.

"Dunno if you've made it out of here yet but this isn't how most of it looks. You're now stuck in an inn the size of a city and whatever gods are running it are obsessed with sex. If anything weird happens and there's no instructions, you usually solve it by fucking." He sounds rather blase as he says it, and after a pause adds in, "they change the atmosphere on a whim too, so that's why it looks like this right now."

[ice_rose]

"I have not," she says plainly enough, without any hint of concern or shame. She is new here, had originally gone down before realizing that the way out was up, and now she is attempting to get to what is apparently a tavern. She listens to what he says about where she is, wonders if Chronoa can possibly reach her here, but does not count on his intervention given it hasn't happened yet. Instead, she eyes the wall, then the plant, and then him.

"So will you be fucking me or will I be fucking you?"

Clipped and businesslike.

[noneforyou]

That gets Xue Yang to turn back to her, raising an eyebrow. A slight grin crosses his face as he looks her up and down.

"Hm? You can fuck me? You don't look like you'd have something to stick in my ass."

As someone who has primarily had sex with men, the distinction of who is the one doing the fucking is a question of who is penetrating, and he wouldn't expect it to be uncertain if they didn't both have the ability in question. But mostly it's a limitation of his own terminology: words restricted to narrow definitions to suit his worldview, reinforcing his mentality even as his experiences have vastly expanded since coming here. Xue Yang sees the world how he wants to see it... and in this instance, that's the idea that the one getting the other's cock put into them must be the one getting fucked.

[ice_rose]

A single arched eyebrow is her answer to that.

"Forgive me: does your ass have something special about it that would stop something like a hand from being stuck in it?"

She continues, her expression cool enough.

"If not, I'll repeat the question."

For his part, they've dressed Takumi up as some kind of demon - fake horns, thematic chains, and not much else coverage otherwise. He's not exactly happy with it, but he hasn't had time to find any better clothing. Not with everything going on.

He wasn't quite lucky enough to dodge the slimes, but he's only been hit by the smaller ones so far. He's trying to ignore their effects, or at least find somewhere private to deal with that...

When he sees someone almost eaten by one of the big slimes, he runs closer, only for her to free herself.

"Are you okay?" He asks, oblivious to whatever effects it might've had on her. But he does notice the intensity of her gaze, and tries not to let his mind go to the gutter. "Are-- hey, haha, why are you looking at me like that."

Why is she looking at him like... what? Not, for once, like a piece of meat. No, no indeed. Meat is for pounding with her fists. Meat is for pulverizing. She doesn't know him, has no idea of who he is, but what she wants from him is... not... that.

Which is odd in and of itself. Not, exactly that she doesn't want to beat the ever loving hell out of him; there's plenty of people that's true for. She only enjoys beating up terrible people. But she feels an urge, intense, like a fire inside of her... but unlike every other time in her life, it's not for that.

She clears her throat.

"I am... unsure," she says, and there's a flatness to her tone that indicates she's not thrilled about that fact, "as the slime... I feel... strange. A sort of... hunger." She winces as the pulse between her legs makes her knees feel oddly weak. Her focus on him is renewed as she steps forward.

"I... believe I would-" this can't be, and yet- "I believe I would like for you to touch me. Though I'm unsure to why. Perhaps some aftereffect of the slime's poison?"

She puts her hand to her fist, but her focus is shot. She can't even focus enough to do a reversal, to remove the contaminant. She swallows, hard, and finds her hand pulling down the fabric of the costume because she's just so... hot. So warm. Chronoa's wits, she's never been so warm.

[roundnround]

Honestly, he might understand being beat to a pulp more. Or at least, he'd put up a better fight about it. Violence is the language he was born and raised for, and it's all he knows. This, on the other hand, is something almost alien to him.

"Touch," His voice pitches up, an embarrassing crack in his tone. "Touch you."

The smart part of his brain says it's just the effects of the slime, they're both wildly aroused because that's what this place wants. However, that's completely shut down by the fact there is a beautiful women right in front of him who wants her to touch him.

So. Takumi reaches out, hesitantly, like he's afraid she'll bite him. She reminds him a little bit of Hiruko, if she had white hair and looked more like-- okay, now is not the time to think about THAT. And lucky his mind goes blank when his hands reach her shoulder, gently caressing her in what can still technically be platonic.

"Like-- this?"

[ice_rose]

Hmmm. Is that what she wants?

Yes and no. The touch is definitely a balm to the heat coiling inside of her, but it is also just as clearly insufficient. She bites her lip as she considers what she's feeling, seeks inside her body to understand what it wants. Breath shuddering, she gently takes his hand with her own, her fingers like steel but not hurting him, to shift his hand from her arm... to her breast.

And when it lands, she makes a sound she's never made before. Oh. Oh, what is this?

Her eyes open and she meets his as she swallows, audibly.

"Please... continue."

He has been nothing but polite and gentlemanly and she is no rabid beast who cannot control her impulses. Just as she'd never go beating people up willy nilly without due cause, neither will she do what she wants to right now, namely jump him and start-

Goodness, she doesn't know what it is, exactly, but she knows it involves her hips and his crotch.

Another swallow.

"P-perhaps with your other hand, if you please. On the other."

[roundnround]

Oh. Oh yeah that's her breast. He makes an embarrassing little squeak when she moves his hand, but very quickly gets the idea. He squeezes, gently, and cups her a bit, just feeling. He's never actually felt this sort of thing, and it's fascinating. It's also causing the heat pooling in his lower belly to get hotter and more insistent.

He eagerly brings his hand up to her other breast, repeating the motions and pressing the two of them together. In so many ways, he's just a teenage boy getting his first chance to fondle some boobs. Okay, maybe he gets why Gaku's always on about this kind of stuff.

Still. There is a small part of his brain that's trying to be a slight gentleman, even if his bulge is becoming more and more obvious.

"Um, so," His voice still cracks as he speak, "I'm pretty sure they want us to. You know. Have s-- sex. And they drugged us to make us even hornier. You know that, right?"

[ice_rose]

She is, in that moment, both listening and enjoying the sensation of him playing with her breasts. Thus, when he asks his question, she breathes in just a little deeper, a little quicker, than she might normally before she answers.

"Yes, I am aware that I've been compromised by the slime," and she looks up at his face, then down at said bulge, "and I would guess that you, too, have been effected as well."

She swallows, maintaining her dignity by a very thin thread.

"I am seldom in the habit of doing what kidnappers might wish of me," she says, seemingly thoughtful, "but in this case, it has most certainly become something that I, too, would like to do. And I have never been one to deny myself the pleasures I desire without ample cause."

Her nipples have gone hard against his fingers and she sucks in a breath.

"My name is Scarlet El Vandimion. I would know your name, and whether or not you would care to have sex with me. Your own desire to do so is... greatly important to me, of course. Thus if you..." her teeth dent her lips as the breasts in his hands heave just a little, "if you should like to have sex with me, I see no reason to hesitate."

There is something juuuust a little wild in her ice-blue eyes. Rest assured that if he says yes, she's fully intends to jump him and ride him until her needs are met or he is no longer interested in servicing them, whichever, ahem, comes first.

First Floor

[workingslacker]

[ On his side of things, Cale is more content to watch the young lady do... Whatever it is that she thinks she's doing. Hey, he's not here to judge. If she wants to spend time, energy, and effort into attempting to get out of this little prison, that's her choice.

It's not like Cale doesn't see the mistletoe. He does. Kim Rok Soo is familiar with the plant and the traditions surrounding it, even if Cale Henituse probably shouldn't be. ]

That depends on what the plant is going to demand of us. [ Just to the point, arms folded over his chest. ] It could be something simple as a kiss or something more involved than that.

[ Even if tradition does just say a kiss. Usually. From what he can remember, anyway. ]

Re: First Floor

[ice_rose]

[ He might be able to see the little hashtag mark at her brow at that answer. You knew the solution and you didn't say something?! Thanks, jackass. Huff.

Other than that, and a slight flattening of her eyes, there's no indication of her frustrations. Instead, she'll dip her head towards him. ]

Then it would seem the most reasonable to attempt the simplest solution first, would it not?

[workingslacker]

[ She just looked like she was having a good time checking it all out. Why deny someone the opportunity to really explore and learn? Some of the best lessons come from discovery!

Of course, Cale just smiles the moment that she looks at him. Smile~ ]

The most reasonable and efficient method would be that, yes.

[ And then they can cross that bridge if it doesn't work. ]

[ice_rose]

[ ...the last person who smiled at her like that got blown half across a country for it. The look she gives Cale says she's considering trying the same with him. If he bounces a few times, she'll just dodge. ]

Then would you be so kind as to proceed?

[workingslacker]

[ Better make sure he doesn't see it coming then, lest Scarlet's fist collide with Cale's Shield. It's exactly for reasons like that which caused him to obtain that Power first.

Brows do raise, though, primarily because she's asking him to proceed. The "kindly" isn't necessary, if only because he'd never actually disrespect someone by treating the situation too blithely. ]

Are you going to keep your eyes open?

[ Please close them. That gaze is unnerving, even if Cale's expression doesn't waver. ]

fifth floor

[tohell]

Not too shabby, except for your last slip-up.

[ There's a round of slow clapping, undeniably mocking in nature, from a rocky patch of land in the middle of one of the tunnel's deeper pools. Applause by a creature that couldn't be confused for an ordinary man even in this dim lighting. His sizable horns and catlike lower limbs that end in strong paws give that away with a lingering glance. Close enough to see, but not so easy to reach, the demon stays perched at a safe distance from goopy slimes upon the slick ground and out of direct reach of any fishy-faced mermaids who are looking to wrap strong legs around the nearest warm body. ]

Speaking of, you might want to wash up. I've not seen someone wind up that sticky post-workout since that sports program, the O-lympics, aired here. [ The name and a little imagination should help paint a clear picture why. As for his suggestion, it's not as altruistic as it seems. In truth, he wants to see if washing the slime off helps relieve any symptoms they're rumored to cause, and she's a perfect subject to test the theory. ]

Re: fifth floor

[ice_rose]

[ Given her world, neither his anatomy nor the fact that he is a demon would really give her much pause. Instead, she is much more concerned with the strange sensation going through her body at the moment. She's cataloging it, trying to understand it.

Trying to ensure that she has a handle on it.

Her tone, regardless of the havoc the slime is already causing inside of her, is even and cool. ]

I assume you mean in one of the many natural pools here?

First Floor

[todayiwas]

Justine loves her outfit. The black tights leave nothing to the imagination and the orange striped shirt - reminiscent of some sort of tiger - clings delicately to every curve. However, by the time she reaches the first floor, pink cheeked and panting, the clothes are in tatters.

She is kneeling beside a trunk, hoping to dig out a prize, when someone walks by and Justine hears a familiar voice.

She doesn't know her, of course, but there's familiarity in the tone, the manner in which she speaks. And her green eyes lock with those blue.

"Perhaps we must wait for rescue. Huddled together like maidens," she tells her with a hint of a giggle.

Re: First Floor

[ice_rose]

The girl reminds her of nothing so much as one of her schoolmates, or rather her previous schoolmates. She looks to be a little older than that, but not that much so, beautiful and clearly nobility. She offers, at the very least, a curtsy before she offers a small headshake.

"From all that I have experienced in this place so far, milady, I would sincerely doubt that."

A curtsy again, this time in introduction.

"Good day. My name is Scarlet El Vandimion. I presume you are new to this place as well?"

Given the outfit.

Re: First Floor

[todayiwas]

"I am!" she chirps, giving a modified curtsy with the remains of her clothes. "I am Madmoiselle Justine Florbelle."

She looks back towards the chest and then walks the perimeter of their little cage, one hand out against it.

"The source should be in the center," she says, looking down near the middle and then up and up until - "Ah! There is the culprit," she declares, pointing.

Re: First Floor

[ice_rose]

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Madmoiselle Florbelle."

She looks up and frowns at the plant hanging there. It's not something she'd assume would grow here or to grow in this particular formation. She agrees with her idea, however.

"Are you familiar with this particular greenery, Madmoiselle Florbelle?"

Re: First Floor

[todayiwas]

She giggles. "Oh yes. The servants like to steal kisses underneath it, I'm told."

She clasps her hands behind her back, inspecting the plant and then her fellow captive. It is rather fortuitous that she found someone of proper breeding here, someone of proper manners. And so close! "If we are to do the same, Mademoiselle El Vandimion, I wonder if we would escape our invisible captors."
