【 Thank you for choosing the Golden Peacock, 5-star resort and casino. You are currently registered as a WILDCARD in our system.
Due to a high volume of check-ins, temporary accommodations have been made in our mid-rank suites for all new arrivals. We ask current mid-rank guests to welcome any new arrivals that may temporarily be assigned to their room while we process reservations.
Exciting news! The Phoenix Casino has undergone a renovation. Guests are invited to come enjoy refreshed facilities, games, and lounges. We don't think you'll ever want to leave!
Additionally, the casino will be hosting an upper rank soiree at the end of the month. All guests rank 9 and above are invited to attend. Any +1s of low rank may only attend as a pet or personal attendant. Otherwise, low ranks are not welcome.
We aim to have all guests moved into their suites as soon as possible. We deeply apologize for any inconvenience! 】

It's a special occasion. Once the resort is finished with this look, it will return to its regular state. [ In other words, just put up with it for his meal please. ] However, if you truly do not like what is served, we can go elsewhere.
[ They aren't confined to this area and there are plenty of options. Jade has been playing games for higher payouts so it's not as though he doesn't have chips that he can spend responsibly. Again, Azul's room is available for them to use as a last resort, if needed. Jade often stays there instead of his tiny little room.
He smiles to the waiter and nods. They'll be fine. Please proceed. The waiter gives them a nervous look before taking that opportunity to just get the hell out of there. There's something unnerving about these twins that they don't want any part of.
Once they are alone, Jade's gaze shifts back towards his twin. ]
Azul and I have been here for two months, going on three. Of course it's not truly your fault.
[ But saying that Floyd is late is just a means to get his attention on the conversation. Floyd doesn't always like to sit around and listen. ]
In a sense, you can think of it as though we've been placed into a rather large, ever changing aquarium.
Special occasion? [With just one dish? Sounds like a lame occasion if they're limiting food to one kind. Jade mentions "resort" and "look" and "regular state" which leaves him miffed his twin's been here long enough to know this place's patterns.] I don't like this. You're talking like you've been here a long time.
[And he saw Jade right before he fell asleep back home! All ideas of food and flavors are out the proverbial window now, eyes narrowed and mouth set in a frowning show of annoyance. Even in those other worlds and places, they were always themselves. But if Jade's been here so long... Is this a dream or not?]
Beat it. [To the waiter. He doesn't want some stranger looming over them while he's trying to figure this out. Already in a bad enough mood; icing over the kitchen had been a stress reliever idea before. Now it's a temptation for a different reason.
...make that double with the next comment.] Azul is here?
[For going on three months?! And they both left him out?! All this time?!] Rude. If you've been havin such a good time here, maybe I'll just go home and leave ya both to keep playing around. [Hmph. Pouting already. Why'd they get to go off to dreamland for three months while he was stuck in bed sleeping waiting for morning?
He's listening, but he doesn't like what he's hearing and it shows on his face.]
Not as long as some, brother dearest. [ In fact, Jade doesn't think that 2-3 months seems like a long time at all in comparison. ] My room feels so empty without you.
[ Jade isn't telling Floyd to mind his manners with the staff though. He might prevent his twin from doing something completely reckless, but hissing at them? Oh no, no reason to do that. The staff might need to learn how to manage Floyd or at least learn his different moods. It will be a learning experience. Maybe for Floyd and the staff both, in the end.
He just hums, taking the glass of water and taking a sip. Floyd continues to speak and Jade just sits there, watching him. Smile still on his face... Until it turns sharper, brows raising a little. It's amused, but also a little taunting. His brother assumes that everything here is a fun time? Maybe he's not wrong, for Jade. ]
Well, getting a taste of our cute octopus was fun, I have to admit. [ He touches fingers to his lips, grin growing wider still. ] Seeing how many others I could fluster was another.
[ Although it isn't all fun and games. The fact that Floyd seems to realize is somewhat of a relief. Floyd is starting to realize it's not just some little dreamland. So he drops his hand and fixes his expression. If anything, he looks apologetic. ]
Unfortunately, we are the entertainment. There are certain expectations of us - that we will perform for them.
Hmm? That doesn't make me feel any better. [Nope, he's still pouting he didn't get to come along earlier. And he's irritated this place took his brother and Azul without telling him! He wanted to have fun in dreamland too, ya know!]
Empty? You were sleeping right across from me when I closed my eyes last night. [Lucky for everyone around him, Floyd's already guessed what happened here. Kinda like that thing Firefly Squid was talking about, where a person gets dropped into another world and has to figure out a way back home. But he's had weird dreams before and wants to hear it from Jade's mouth.
If his brother's drinking the water, it should be safe, right? (Never mind he's been drinking water all day. But only now did he have a reason to suspect this place was bad. He knows it's "bad" because what place goes around yanking people outta bed, but "bad" bad because now Jade and Azul are here, have been here for a while, so that means they can't go home easily.
Making this place "bad" bad. And who's gonna trust "bad" bad to give them safe water? Jade gets to be poison taster! ... Pass~ Now he can drink it without any curiosity! ... Aw, man, now it's boring old water.]
Hoh? [This makes his expression change, lips curving in a slow line for a row of sharp white teeth. Hadn't been the first time he'd mentioned tasting Azul. Wanted to bite a chunk outta him even back in elementary school.] No fair. You're teasing me. ["Others" aren't as interesting right now, but he'll note it. A place like this promising all the fun and games you could want has to have a darker side.]
I see~ So it's just like Foxfish's Playful Land. Except with kidnapping. Sounds fun~
My poor, precious brother. [ Jade makes a heartbroken expression, hand to his chest. ] Should I make it up to you?
[ Trick question. There are a lot of ways that Jade could make it so that Floyd doesn't particularly miss his absence too much. Floyd likely knows that it could either be something fun or something... Not so fun. Like feed him mushrooms that he's found and has been dying to try out. It really depends on Jade's mood and how careful Floyd feels in the moment.
At least the water is safe. For now. Jade's heard that food and drink here can sometimes be unsafe. He has yet to encounter it. Since the game here is to have a "date," Jade doubts that the water will contain anything. The food, perhaps. Something slow acting, Jade would venture a guess. That's how he would do it, after all.
When he hears Floyd's tone, Jade's grin widens. Is he teasing his twin? Absolutely. ]
I'm sure you'll have your chance, if you so wish. There are plenty of opportunities for it.
[ Now how does he explain this to Floyd. Playful Land? No, not quite like that. Jade isn't really sure how his twin is going to take it. Still - ]

The "fun" here is engaging in... Intimacies.
