EVENS
EVENS
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.

GIFT BASKET DELIGHTS (PLEASE DON’T COMPLAIN) ▷ Charming Novelty T-shirts: [ 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 ]
All Natural Body Care
A Luxury Candle
A Box of Holiday Cookies
12-Pack of Resort Branded Health Items

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.

BATHROOM MISCHIEFTHE SOAP WANTS TO DROP: Soap is slippery, but it seems as though some of the bars are intent on slipping out of hand and onto the floor. Some even shoot across the open concept showers and hit someone else. But how could soap throw itself at someone?! Are you sure you're not just looking for attention?

YOU CAN'T ESCAPE YOURSELF: As the steam from the showers rolls through the bathroom the mirrors begin to fog. Strange enough, fogging the mirrors begins to reveal some kind of message ... and not just any message. Wildcards may discover one of the worst private thoughts they've ever had written out on the mirror for all to see. Hiding it as easy as wiping away the vapor, but you can never really escape your truest thoughts.

SHAM-ME, SHAM-YOU: There are several shampoo scents for wildcards to choose from in the cabinets. One particular formula, Saltmarsh Sparrow, isn't quite like the others. This particular shampoo is designed to pair with the wearer's natural scent. Wildcards may find that they are leaking faint pheromones that incite lust and arousal in potential mates. Use too much shampoo and you may even be affected by your own scent!

YOU, ME, AND THIS COMMUNAL TUB: The communal bathroom also includes a large soaking tub that can accommodate several guests at once. There are scrubbing stones kept around the pool for guest use and jars of mud masks to wear while enjoying a soak. Mud masks will leave even the dullest skin feeling hydrated and fresh—amazing! But... what is this? The very teeny tiny font on the bottom of the jars say, "Mud will not wash off by the same hands that applied it. We recommend finding a partner to apply masks with. Enjoy!"

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.

OPEN THIS FUCKING DOORWildcards may find that the closet door will slam closed and lock while they are inside. This will only happen if there are two wildcards inside the closet.

A giggle from the other side of the door is proof that it wasn’t an accident but the voice will not respond to any questions or demands. Only when asked what they need to do to be released will there will be another soft giggle and the demand: “Kiss, kiss, kiss for seven minutes!

Wildcards who abide by the kissing ghost's rule will be released promptly after seven minutes of kissing. Those that do not will be trapped inside until one of the staff members comes around and unlocks the door.

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.

LOST IN THE VALE ▷ The Vale is the only area in the resort that has simulated weather. Wildcards in the Vale may experience thunderstorms, windstorms, and light rain showers. Those who don't find their way out by night hours will find themselves plunged into darkness, with the bioluminescent mushrooms their only source of light.

▷ There are small caves and caverns throughout the Vale. There is overhead connected netting throughout the trees that may make travel easier for those agile enough to get up there. A river with fresh water runs throughout the entirety of the Vale.

▷ There are real birds living in the Vale. These birds find newcomers very interesting and like to swoop and peck if they see a good opportunity to bully. They are easily frightened off but quick to return if someone is particularly reactive.

▷ The Vale is very moist at ground level so mud and sinkholes are common. There are scattered stone and wood-plank pathways but for the most part the set-up is very natural.

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.

SEXY? TRAPSCAGE: A lofted wooden cage. This trap is triggered when the prey crosses a hidden tripwire. The cage will fall from above and enclose the prey if they are not quick enough to evade. The cage is heavy and difficult to move. Escapable if the prey is strong enough or if someone lends assistance.

HANGING NET: Netting hidden on the ground by leaves or moss. Stepping into the net area will trigger the trap into pulling up and capturing its prey in lofted bundle. Escapable if the prey manages to cut through the net or if someone lends assistance and breaks the pully rope.

MUD PIT: A deep hole hidden on the ground by leaves, moss, or carefully placed bushes. Prey will fall into the hole once stepping into it. Depths may reach 6 - 7 feet so prey cannot climb out on their own. Escapable for those with good agility or if someone lends assistance.

ANKLE SNARE: A rope loop hidden beneath leaves, moss, or other craftily laid vegetation. This trap is triggered when the prey steps into the snare. Rope will tighten around the prey's ankle to keep them in place. This trap may remain on the ground or loft the prey so that they're hanging upside-down from a tree. Escapable for those who can cut the rope or if someone lends assistance.

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.

IT'S AN ORGY Y'ALLFINDERS KEEPERS: None of the long-standing guests are paying attending to the clothes they've stripped off. Some of these clothing items may even have small items in the pockets, like a zippo lighter and cigarettes. Wildcards that dare to snatch clothes or items most likely won't be caught ... but if a guest does catch them, what are they gonna do other than give chase? If you're fast enough it's all yours.

FREE LUNCH IS NEVER FREE: All of the food and drink offered by the guests on the pagoda is spiked with aphrodisiac. Intensity varies from a very slight amount to a full dose, at player discretion. Regardless of potency, wildcards will find that effects do not last long.

MOVE OVER, BUB: The bathroom in the pagoda is small, comfortably fitting two at best. There is a shower with a limited amount of hot water available. The gauge will show as the amount of hot water declines. Once the hot water runs out wildcards can only use ice cold water to wash off the mud. It would be effective to shower together, wouldn't it?

WHO STARTED THIS PARTY: Pagoda guests will become wilder as the party goes on. Wildcards may end up voyeur to guests having sex out in the open. Some guests will try to match up with wildcards or try to match wildcards simply because they would look good together. Particularly frisky guests will playfully chase wildcards around. Good luck, newbie!

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).

5 GOLD RINGS GAME ▷ The poinsettias are changing vases! Hey, they like to be fashionable too. Wildcards may notice something gold glinting in their roots as they dart across the floor to the next pot.

▷ Poinsettias are quick and clever. They will dodge, hide, and use bystanders as shields to avoid being caught. Once they’re in their new vase they cannot be taken out. They’re very stubborn.

▷ Poinsettias that are startled may give off a spurt of strong aroma. Wildcards that inhale this scent may break out into a rash. The cure is to climax/orgasm, which will get rid of the rash immediately. It may last up to a week otherwise. An embarrassed poinsettia may offer this explanation, apologetic for doing the flower equivalent of farting in your face.

▷ Gold rings can be retrieved from their roots. Taking these rings is harmless to them but they will be a bit bummed since these rings granted them the ability to scurry around. Please be kind and deposit them into a vase so they are not left stranded on the resort floor!

▷ Each ring collected may have either a slight charm or slight curse. A ring will either grant a brief boost to physical ability (charm) or drain physical ability (curse). Rings are single time use and will become plain gold rings after a brief use period. Players are welcome to choose if the rings they collect are charmed or cursed.

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.

RED CARDINAL’S HOMEMADE HOLIDAY MENU ▷ Shrimp and Leek Dumplings; Vegetable Dumplings
▷ Squid Kebabs with Oyster Sauce
▷ Spicy Crawfish Pot (🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️)
▷ Rice Noodles served with Sour Beans, Peanuts, Bamboo Shoots, and Shallots
▷ Hand-Pulled Noodles, Thin Beef, Boiled Egg served in Fish Broth
▷ Steamed Crab
▷ Carp with Sichuan Pickles
▷ Kung Pao Chicken (🌶️)
▷ Spicy Beef in Hot Oil (🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️)
▷ Shredded Pork with Garlic Sauce (🌶️)
▷ Red Braised Pork
▷ Sweet and Sour Ribs
▷ Mapo Tofu (🌶️🌶️)
▷ Twice-Cooked Pork Slices
▷ Hot and Sour Glass Noodles (🌶️🌶️🌶️)
▷ Fried Eggs with Tomatoes

▷ Steamed Pea Flour Cake
▷ Osmanthus Cake
▷ Mung Bean Cake
▷ Egg-Yolk Puff
▷ Dragon's Beard Candy
▷ Steamed Creamy Custard Buns
▷ Rice Dumplings

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.

RED CARDINAL’S HOMEMADE WINESWEET OSMANTHUS: A sweet wine with notes of apricot and plum. A healthy dollop of the butterflies one feels during first love has been blended in to evoke an even brighter taste on the palate. Drinking Sweet Osmanthus will inspire feelings of love and romance in the drinker.

JAMMY BERRY: A tart wine with notes of blackberry, raspberry, and bayberry. A clever tongue may also taste the unshed tears for those without mourners. Drinking Jammy Berry will compel the drinker to cry. Full on waterworks. You baby.

CHILLED NUT: A mild and nutty wine with notes of chestnut and mint. All that's added to this one is a sprinkle of those bad ideas that always come past 2am. Drinking Chilled Nut will prompt the drinker to confess a secret.

LOTUS TANG: A deep-bodied wine with notes of wood and oak. A cup and a half of blended confidence from "the strongest" men as been liberally whisked in. Drinking Lotus Tang will give the drinker a massive confidence boost and the sense self-importance to match.

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.

DRESSING ROOMSANONYMOUS FUN: Many of the stalls have strange holes cut into the walls, making it easy to peer into the next room over. However, an astute wildcard may realize that these holes are too big to be peepholes. One may even come to that realization because of an unexpected visitor poking through the hole to say hello.

YOU’D LOOK BETTER IN THIS: The lights in the dressing rooms may flicker on and off during the night. After that blink of darkness, wildcards may find that the clothes they were going to try on have been swapped with something completely different.

FOREBODING: Wildcards may find that their reflection in the mirror is pale and tired. The lips of that reflection will move, a faint flick not noticeable to anyone else around, only to the one looking directly at their own face and knowing they aren't whispering. This reflection will try to warn its original... but will quickly freeze up, unable to get the message out before returning to normal.

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.

TRY A NEW FACEHEARTS: Several of the red masks have been marked by Hearts. The wearer will be able to glean a vague sense of the emotions of those around them.

DIAMONDS: Several of the white masks have been marked by Diamonds. The wearer’s body will become especially sensitive to touch and temperature.

SPADES: Several of the black masks have been marked by Spades. The wearer will experience a heightened desire for intensity or violence.

CLUBS: Several of the purple masks have been marked by Clubs. The wearer will become compelled to act impulsively or recklessly.

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.

SEX TOYS GET LONELY TOODILDOS: The dildos will chase after guests to try and fill whatever hole they can. These dildos are indiscriminate and will target any hole, so watch out for these pests trying to jam into one of your nostrils. Dildos will target the nearest character and will change targets if another one is within closer range.

SHIBARI ROPE: The shibari rope has uncoiled itself and is hiding in wait to capture two people together. When it spies an opportunity it will throw itself forward and try to knot two individuals together. It will target a single individual if no one else is close enough to catch with them.

FEATHER TICKLER: The feather ticklers are surprisingly aggressive, chasing after characters to tickle them to tears. Sometimes these ticklers work together to trap characters into a corner and tickle them. A very unlucky character may even run into a flock of ticklers!

LEASH AND COLLAR: The leash and collar set will play dead until someone is close enough. The collar will snap around the neck of the closest individual and the leash will drag them toward someone else to hold.

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?
NOTES
PROMPT NOTES
▶ How mask abilities manifest in the wearer is totally up to you. For example, the way a Heart mask wearer senses emotions can vary from character to character. There is no one right way to apply the prompt.
▶ Consequences for breaking the toys are totally up to player discretion. Have fun.
▶ Toys can be quelled in other ways. If your character has the ability, go for it.
▶ All subprompts are suggestions. Please feel free to get creative! Listen to your heart, when he’s calling for you.



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.

COCKTAIL MENUGOLD GLAMOUR: Those that drink Gold Glamour will find that they are now able to change their voice. A popular choice among guests that really want to lean into becoming someone else for the night.

DIAMOND DUST: Those that drink Diamond Dust will find their walls slowly lowering. Suddenly, being vulnerable and open to connecting with people doesn't seem so bad. Something to help loosen up your favorite introvert.

RUBY TONGUE: Those that drink Ruby Tongue will not be able to tell a lie for the next hour or so. No matter how hard they try they will only speak honestly. Ruby Tongue won’t let you hide from yourself, even at a masquerade.

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.

VIRGIN AUCTION In a room draped in red velvets and spotted with plush couches, wildcards will find themselves either snatched up to a wooden stage or given a number. The distinction between the two is simple: staff will judge which characters are virgins and which are not. Virgins are included in the auction and all others are given the opportunity to bid on them.

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome … to the annual Virgin Auction!! Gaze upon these fresh nubile virgins in awe! So clean and so untouched. You won’t want to miss this opportunity to bask in the glow of their freshness!

▷ Virgins will be asked to give an introduction of themselves on stage. Afterward, they can walk the floor and interact with bidders as they please. Virgins are a rare novelty in the resort so NPC guests will fawn over them and offer them gifts like chocolates and flowers. Some may even read crappy love poetry to them.

▷ Bidders may submit their bids via Watch directly to their virgin of choice. If the virgin likes the bid and the guest submitting it they can accept immediately. If not, they can wait for another bid. After 30 minutes, if they have no other bids, they must accept their highest bid.

▷ Virgins need only spend 1 hour of their time on a “date” with the winner of their bid. They do not need to lose their virginity. Virgins will be paid a medium payout for participating in the auction and paid 20% commission from their winning bid.


LOCK & KEY Gold and red melt together in this cozy game room. Adorned with padlock and ribbon decor, wildcards will only have a moment to admire the space before being snatched away by staff. Some wildcards will simply be given a key and returned to the room. Others will find themselves buckled into a harness or belt of some kind—but this isn’t any belt. It's a chastity belt. A rather uncomfortable one at that.

One hour to find your match, all! Anyone that doesn’t find their match after time has passed will be locked in the pillory and spanked as punishment! Welcome to the Locked Chastity Game!!

▷ Locks are looking for their matching key! Guests must find their match in order to win the game.

▷ Locks and keys that do not manage to find their match by the end of 1 hour will lose the game and have chips deducted from their bank account. They will also be locked into a pillory and spanked.

▷ Chastity belts may be over clothes or under clothes. How intense of a belt a character is wearing is left to player discretion. Some are very raunchy and may require direct contact with intimate areas to access.

▷ Once the game begins the door is closed. Candles that let off a strong aphrodisiac will be lit to add some urgency to the matchmaking. How strongly a character is affected is left to player discretion.


DIRTY DICE In another large room with small scattered game tables tables, pairs and groups will be given a special set of dice to play with. Two bold guests take the lead and show everyone how to play the game. One guest tosses both dice: one lands on BITE and the other on BREAST. He grabs his game partner and peels down her collar to sink his teeth playfully into her breast. She then takes her turn, the dice commanding another intimate action.

Got it, newbies? This is an easy beginner game. Roll the dice and do what it says. You both take turns, and if neither wimps out and does what the dice say four times in a row, you win a prize. That’s Dirty Dice for you!

DIE A
1: Bite
2: Kiss
3: Caress
4: Grab
5: Lick
6: Sniff
DIE B
1: Lips
2: Breast
3: Mouth
4: Neck
5: Ass
6: Knee


▷ If both players manage to complete four rolls they both will receive a medium payout.

▷ If one player manages to complete four rolls they will receive a small payout alone.

▷ If neither player manages to complete four rolls they get nothing.

▷ We recommend players use RNG during this game for random fun!


MASTER & PET This particular room notably has several smaller breakout rooms, all decorated in sensual black silks. Every character that steps inside will be guided into drawing a card from a box. The card will either denote Master or Pet. Staff are quick to divide those who have selected master and pet cards and set them up for play.

Welcome, Masters. We have a variety toys and pets for you to choose from. Your wish is our command. Here, you can have whatever you want. You’re in control.

▷ Masters will be given a selection of toys to browse. Players are free to imagine anything in the piles of stock that masters get to choose from.

▷ Pets will be collared and given a metal tag denoting whether the pet is a cat or a dog. This distinction is made based on character personality.

▷ Masters may request a random matchup or examine the available pets and choose the one that catches their eye. Both will then be escorted to a private room to play.

▷ Pets that manage to satisfy their master will receive a medium payout after play.

(( from here. ))

[ Kaveh chuckles in response to the comment the other makes, glancing around them at the communal bathroom. It is certainly a little strange that they're both just standing here.. but to be honest, nothing about this whole experience has been anything other than strange, so... ]

And you too, Olivine. It's true, I'm sure there are worse— although I'd prefer not to imagine them. [ He laughs, scratching the back of his head a little awkwardly. ] Other than... well, this[ he gestures at the mirror where Olivine's thoughts were once written ] —I hope you haven't encountered anything too uncomfortable?

[ "Too", because discomfort has certainly happened. It seems to Kaveh that the place thrives on it. For now, he turns and leans against the counter, keeping his attention on Olivine, and not on the myriad of naked men and women all around them. ]

And you said you work in a church, right? Are you a priest, then? It seems to me that it's a noble profession— architecture is important, sure; we build homes for people— but if a heart or soul is too damaged, no home can fix that. People like you... yeah.
massochism: (♪This is just my way of unleashing)

[personal profile] massochism 2023-12-25 12:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Indeed... I believe it's better for all involved to be grateful for what luck we do have. [Olivine can assuredly think of worse places to end up... but that is most definitely not something he wants to think about.] Ah—no, nothing too uncomfortable. Waking up with someone else in a bed I didn't recognise was certainly not expected, but they were cordial enough.

[which is good enough for him, at least. and when neither of them had any memory of it, it helped to solidify it as... well, probably not just a moment of poor judgment on Olivine's part. his weight shifts as Kaveh leans against the counter, humming softly.]

I am a temple priest, yes. [a hand rises to his chest, and his brows furrow slightly before he continues.] But please do not undersell your own skill and importance. Without people like yourself, we priests would have no location in which to provide aid to others, and the value of a home, a roof over one's head, cannot be understated in the pursuit of mental and physical health. [certainly, there are some for whom that roof is... transient, if existent at all, but these are the exception and not the rule in his experience.]

Nobility is where one sees it, I believe... and though it may be easy to feel inadequate in your own contributions when looking upon others', one can easily miss the reality that they may feel just the same way. The best progress is made when people band together and bolster one another with their own abilities.
indigently: (155)

sorry for the delay! holidays and an international move threw me off.

[personal profile] indigently 2024-01-06 10:26 am (UTC)(link)
[ Kaveh's brows lift in surprise, and after a moment, he shakes his head, laughing softly. ]

Don't misunderstand me... I know how important my work is, and I'm not feeling inadequate. [ It's the truth, too, which surprises even him. ] I agree that everyone has important roles, and that we're best when we work together. But in a place like this, I think perhaps people will find more comfort in your presence than in mine. Which makes sense. You'll be able to do good work here, I think.

[ He pauses, giving a meaningful glance to the mirror before back at the other man, and a soft laugh surfaces on his lips, sweet and friendly and by no means judgmental. ]

Maybe you'll get to make some secret wishes come true, too. It seems like the right sort of place for it, doesn't it? And with the game they say we're gonna have to play... Well, if you intend to participate, I'm sure there'll be a number of chances for that sort of thing.

[ Come to think of it, this is rather an odd sort of conversation to be having with a priest, isn't it? ]

I'm... not really the type to do that to anyone, but if you ever need to fill out a number, then...

[ Archons, this sort of thing is so much easier when he's drunk. ]

I guess there's always the option for us to help each other out. Right?
massochism: (♪Into my head)

no worries, and goodness! I hope everything is settling fine now!

[personal profile] massochism 2024-01-06 11:11 am (UTC)(link)
[ah. it seems he'd gotten a little too into worrying, hadn't he? he does look a little sheepish as Kaveh explains, head shaking lightly.]

I don't know if that's true... but I'm glad to hear that I misunderstood. But—ah.

[his head ducks when Kaveh turns back to the mirror, exhaling a soft sigh. it's embarrassing, of course, but...]

To tell the truth... it isn't entirely a secret. I just... would rather have fewer people know about it outright, I suppose. Even with this game.

[maybe it's a strange conversation, but this whole place is strange too, isn't it? Olivine laughs softly, shaking his head.]

No... it's alright. I wouldn't want to ask you to do anything you didn't enjoy. I can't imagine liking something like that. [not if Kaveh really is so much like him. there are a few things he would do happily for some people, but in general?]

I'm sure we could find something that works for us together, for the game's sake, yes. For now we're still waiting for whatever they decide, right? So there's no need to rush into anything.

[rubbing his cheek, Olivine glances to the baths, the mirror, then back to Kaveh.]

Mm... if you were planning on bathing, I wouldn't want to interrupt you. I'm happy to continue talking, though, if you'd like.

[is it just to get away from thinking about the mirror? maybe.]
indigently: (078)

settling in slowly and working on catching up the inbox! lol

[personal profile] indigently 2024-01-07 12:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Secrets that aren't really secrets... mm. Kaveh is all too knowledgeable about those, although it's— well. He's certainly not going to bring it up, is he.

At the very least, it seems Olivine has misunderstood him again, which gives him something else to focus on. He smiles, and shakes his head, hopefully reassuring. ]
It's okay, that's not what I meant. I just meant.. in general, if we need to fill out a number, we can help each other. Like you said... find something that works for us together. I agree with you— no one should do anything they don't like.

[ Even if he privately worries that in some ways, this place will call for that, somehow. ]

Mm.. I was planning on bathing, but... a lot of the stalls are full right now. [ He chuckles awkwardly. He can see that Olivine doesn't particularly want to be near to the mirror given its propensity for spelling out secrets— he's lucky one of his own hasn't appeared just yet— but there aren't a great deal of solutions except... ]

Should we share? I've seen some people doing that. I was planning on leaving a towel on, so it makes no difference to me.
massochism: (♪Till you're done)

haha, the best you can hope for!

[personal profile] massochism 2024-01-07 01:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah—of course. [Olivine gives a sheepish little laugh; he knows where he got the misunderstanding this time, at least. will he be able to fix it soon? time will tell.] Working together makes everything a little less dreadful, too.

[he's been trying not to think too hard on what they might be forced into, like he's trying not to think about all the damage in his hometown, the fact of what's been going on and that he's now absent from that.]

I don't mind. And sharing a stall may just spare any other... interruptions.

[Olivine is a little bit less awkward over it, at least. he reaches to touch Kaveh's hand reassuringly, just a brief touch.]

We can go now if you'd like, and spare any further effort of struggling to find an open stall.
indigently: (101)

exactly! ♥

[personal profile] indigently 2024-01-09 12:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Kaveh nods. The idea of avoiding interruptions was the same that he had entirely; they may not be immediately compatible in the way this place would like for them to be, but a friend is as good as anything as far as he's concerned, especially right now, not really knowing anyone at all. Especially if it means they can keep themselves out of some other, more awkward situations. He smiles, and moves his hand back against Olivine's in that same brief way, just to show that they're okay.

And then, he nods. ]


Okay. Sounds good to me.

[ So they move, Kaveh standing tall on his feet to look around in search of a stall— with his height, he's able to spot one relatively fast, and he leads Olivine over to it, making sure to grab a towel for each of them along the way. ]
massochism: (olivine051)

[personal profile] massochism 2024-01-09 05:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[not to mention, there are plenty of ways to be compatible beyond the absolutes of penetration, if it comes to that. For right now it's a much more comfortable space anyway, just keeping close, looking after one another.

He can't help the small smile at the return touch, soothing in its comfort. There's no further conversation as Kaveh turns to find a stall for them. Perhaps a noise of surprise at how easily they do. He's quick to follow the taller man anyway, sure on his feet and just barely glancing about as though to ensure their privacy. Maybe it's really just for that, even.]
indigently: (070)

[personal profile] indigently 2024-01-14 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
[ Unfortunately, the location he finds is definitely not private. But at this point, Kaveh's not sure anywhere in this place would be. Maybe some of the higher-ranking cards get their own private bathrooms, once they're sorted? It would be nice. But for now, as Wildcards, they've got their towels, and each other.

As much as he's not fond about the thought of stripping off with anyone watching— not even necessarily Olivine, but others whose gazes they can't see— Kaveh is quick to remove the garish t-shirt and sweatpants he's obtained from around the place and replace them with a towel wound loosely around his waist.

He'll wait for Olivine to do the same before he turns the water on. ]
massochism: (olivine070)

[personal profile] massochism 2024-01-14 01:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[alas, it's as much as they can manage; at least it just being the two of them in the stall is better than it could be. Olivine is... faintly aware of the relative discomfort, perhaps even just guessing at it from the conversation earlier. and honestly? it's not as if he's actually not used to people seeing his body in some measure. his most formal robes do not cover even a fraction of what could be considered decent.

so it's really kind of without hesitation that he frees the belt of his robe, his actions maybe a little bigger than they strictly need to be. without his normal piercings there's less to hide anyway. the towel actually feels a little strange when it comes to bathing, but for the sake of privacy (or the illusion thereof) it's... better than nothing. his fingers do splay briefly across his belly, over the peridot gemstone there, before turning back to Kaveh with that same faint smile.]


It may seem silly to ask, but—would you like any help in particular? I'll do my best to stay out of your way, in any case. [a soft laugh. it's going to be an effort, considering he's built like a brick house.]
indigently: <user name="Preciousmoom" site="twitter.com"> (209)

[personal profile] indigently 2024-01-17 10:56 am (UTC)(link)
[ He's honestly not trying to look, but the peridot gemstone does tend to draw the eyes, and Kaveh's naturally travel there, especially as Olivine lays a hand over it. Then, realizing what he's done, he looks away as quickly as he saw, a faint blush lining his cheeks. ]

Sorry, [ he mutters. Wasn't the whole point of this to keep each other safe from this kind of thing, after all?

But Olivine is already offering his assistance, and it's weird how Kaveh wants to tell him yes, even though he doesn't actually need anything. With a smile, he shakes his head. ]


I think I'm alright. What about you? I don't mind helping you either, if you need it.

[ He manages all of about two more seconds before adding: ]

Is that gem a piercing? It's beautiful.
massochism: (♪Gettin' ready to shoot)

[personal profile] massochism 2024-01-17 02:17 pm (UTC)(link)
What are you sorry for? [it's a gentle question, one that's softened more by the warm expression on his face.] It's a small space, I think it would be stranger to notice nothing.

[he's honestly pretty pragmatic about it, which might be a help or it... really might not. but the important bits are covered, his actual jewelry is gone, and Kaveh's response prompts a softer, more shy smile in turn.]

I can't say that I need it, but I suppose it... feels better to help than to just stand about awkwardly.

[the followup question prompts him to glance down again, head shaking.]

Ah, thank you. It isn't, though—they seem to have taken all of those upon arrival. This is... a symbol of my contract, plainly put. I've had it since birth; it's fully
connected to my abdomen.

[which he realises, approximately half a second later, that that's kind of a weird thing to say completely out of context, to someone who definitely doesn't even know what the significance of that contract is yet.

well. instead of making it even weirder, potentially, he'll just let Kaveh ask or not.]
indigently: (110)

[personal profile] indigently 2024-01-21 09:57 am (UTC)(link)
[ He doesn't answer the question— it seemed rhetorical enough— but instead just smiles, grateful for the other's understanding.

But then the other explains, and...

...Yeah, it's definitely a weird thing for Olivine to say out of context. A contract since birth seems like a pretty serious thing— he's pretty sure that in Teyvat, or at least in Sumeru, such a thing would be considered illegal due to the infant's inability to consent.

And then there's the matter of the gemstone. Connected to his abdomen? Is it done surgically, or perhaps through some Vision-like magic? Kaveh raises his brows, waiting for an explanation— but it doesn't come.

So after a moment, he says: ]


Turn around and let me wash your hair. You can do mine after. In the meantime, would you explain to me what you mean by "contract"? And... [ A pause, as he chuckles. ] I don't know. If it's not too horribly rude, I think I have a lot of questions for you.
massochism: (♪Here's a sneak little peek)

[personal profile] massochism 2024-01-21 01:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't mind. [Olivine offers a sort of wry smile, apologetic.] Sorry, I didn't want to bore you with the explanation if you weren't interested.

[he doesn't have any qualms about turning away, giving Kaveh that moment of trust.]

It's probably best to begin at the start—and if you have any questions, just ask. All I know is common knowledge in Klein. Firstly, our continent is divided into five distinct sections—each kept in balance by an elemental altar. These altars have to be regulated in order to keep a balance of their energies, which is a task handed down by the Kleinster Kingdom to the Grand Sorcerer. In order to facilitate this, he made contracts with individuals in each kingdom—Clan Members, as we've come to be called. That was several hundred years ago.

As for me... I actually don't know that much, other than what's in our history. I was born with this gemstone. As far as I know, it means that... the original holder of the contract died before it was fulfilled. So I inherited his duty.

[and this was something that was only confirmed recently, really... a lot of things he's only learned recently, thanks to Rei.]
indigently: (162)

[personal profile] indigently 2024-01-28 09:17 am (UTC)(link)
[ And of course, Kaveh follows through by being trustworthy, reaching for the shampoo, something called "Saltmarsh Sparrow", and beginning to lather it into the other man's hair as promised. There's a few times that he has to pause as he listens to the story, though— beginning at the start is wise, but practically ensures that the blonde will be overwhelmed with information. Ironically, the beginning of it makes a certain amount of sense— Teyvat, after all, is much the same, split into regions ruled by the different elements— but from there things get a little hazy. A task, contracts, a duty that was given to him at birth because the previous holder failed...

It's, in short, a lot to take in. Kaveh finds himself frowning, and it's a good thing Olivine seems to be open to questions, because he thinks somehow that he's going to have a lot of them—

Except that he's finding himself a little distracted by the shampoo's scent, and by the image of the soapy lather washing its way down Olivine's back. Kaveh bites his lip, and lowers shaking hands from the other's hair. ]


You, um. You might want to rinse that out. I'm not feeling great—
massochism: (♪This is just my way of unleashing)

[personal profile] massochism 2024-01-28 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[and this isn't even the complicated stuff. Klein is... really fucking weird, when you get right down to it.

it's all well and good, to start, his thoughts only occasionally interrupted by the warm comfort of hands in his hair. it's a rare thing, being able to share in this sort of intimacy.

he's none the wiser to Kaveh's thoughts (and to be fair, Olivine has a very nice back, it's kind of unfair) until the other speaks, his voice just a touch... bothered? concerned and concerning.

I'm not feeling great, he says, and it prompts the priest to turn toward him again.]


Ah—of course... do you need to step out for a moment to breathe? [his instinct is to move forward, of course, rather than back, but he stows that habit in favour of doing as asked. if something about the shampoo is making him feel ill or something, it's better to be rid of it as soon as possible.

it's strange, too. he hadn't smelled anything odd about it at all...]
indigently: <user name="So__yai" site="twitter.com"> (232)

[personal profile] indigently 2024-01-30 11:07 am (UTC)(link)
[ Kaveh swallows, nodding as the other turns back to him. ]

Y-Yeah. There's something... in the shampoo, I don't know, just... Give me a second, sorry.

[ It's not like the stalls are incredibly private; stepping out is more a matter of rounding a corner than anything else. But he does it, getting out of Olivine's space enough to breathe in warm air that doesn't tickle his nose like the finest of promises, taking a few deep breaths before he steps back around again.

He's so focused on holding himself together that he doesn't realize the way his towel has started to tent ever so slightly, the barest hint of physical arousal at the sensation.

The scent is still there, but less than before, manageable he thinks, and Kaveh offers Olivine a weak, embarrassed smile. ]


Sorry. I don't really know what came over me, the shampoo smelled... alluring? [ He leaves out the part where he was watching the lather pattern its way down the priest's back, because this is awkward enough as it is. ] It's not so bad now.
massochism: (♪Into my head)

[personal profile] massochism 2024-01-30 11:40 am (UTC)(link)
[something in the shampoo. Olivine's lips press together as he considers it—he hadn't smelled anything strange, still doesn't, but... it's not an unreasonable leap of logic.

well.

it's not an unreasonable leap of logic when you're from a place where essence can be stirred by just about anything, and it usually ends in an awful lot of arousal.]


It's alright, Kaveh.

[honestly, Olivine is... both at ease and bothered by this. not by Kaveh's reaction (or the tenting of his towel, which he definitely can't not notice when he's worrying over the other man), but by this place's evident insistence for pushing them to places they wouldn't normally go. for a moment he considers whether to mention it at all.

first though, he finds the bottle to sniff it, to confirm one suspicion before he says anything at all.]


Mm... I don't smell anything, so... [resting a hand on his cheek for a moment, he shakes his head.] It's possible that it's formulated to react to a person's skin to create a pheromonal effect. There are some plants in the Wood Territory that have similar properties... I don't think it's harmful, at least.

[... he can't just leave Kaveh to realise later, though. it wouldn't be like him, and he has some passing concern that there's some lingering effect to the blond's essence—lifeblood, energy. whatever.]

I... don't mean to pry, but... would you like a little help with that? [his glance down is politely brief, if meaningful.] I'll leave it alone if you'd prefer, of course, but... I don't mind at all.

[which is a little weird to say, maybe, but just... his life has been weird for a while now.]
indigently: <user name="suspicious_xxx" site="twitter.com"> (236)

[personal profile] indigently 2024-02-04 10:49 am (UTC)(link)
[ Kaveh's head tilts at Olivine's explanation. While he's never encountered something like it before, a pheromone-based effect makes a lot of sense. It would explain why he's experiencing effects from it and the other man isn't. Truth be told, it awakens the scholar in him a little, makes him want to experiment and find out what happens if they switch things up and have Olivine wash his hair... but things are already awkward enough—

—and they only get more awkward as the other gently points out his erection, and asks if he'd like help with it. ]


...Fuck. [ It's a low, meaningful murmur as the heat in his cheeks only heightens— and then his eyes shoot back up to the other's face, an apologetic expression written onto his features. ] Oh, uh. Sorry. [ The guy's a priest, after all, Kaveh should probably watch his language—

He's quiet for a moment, thoughtful. As much as the pair of them had agreed that they were here to clean up, with the situation being what it is now, it would make sense for them to collect each other's cards, right? Even if they're not technically assigned yet, there's a greater chance for them to be different than they are the same, so... ]


Y-yeah. Okay. It makes... it makes more logical sense for us to go through with it than not. Right? So... yes. Please.
massochism: (♪Gettin' ready to shoot)

[personal profile] massochism 2024-02-04 04:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry? [oh, Kaveh. it's probably better to think of him less as a priest, but he'll figure that out eventually. probably.] You haven't done anything needing an apology, Kaveh.

[really, considering they don't even know how the game is going to work, it could be fine anyway—even if they were to end up the same card. for now...]

Alright. [his expression is soft, gesturing for Kaveh to come closer.] Do you have a preference for how to help you? Please don't feel the need to hesitate, no matter what it is.
indigently: (155)

[personal profile] indigently 2024-02-11 09:17 am (UTC)(link)
[ He's more awkward than ever as he shuffles closer, following Olivine's request even as his brain screams about how uncomfortable he is. Not because of the other man, but because of himself, and the guilt he feels over getting aroused so easily when the whole point of this exercise had been to look out for each other, for this not to happen.

So even though it makes sense, even though there's logic in them doing this, accepting the way this place works, when the other asks that question, his eyes close for a moment, a gust of breath escaping over his lips. ]


No— I really. I really don't mind. Whatever's most comfortable for you, Olivine— you're the one doing me a favor here.

[ He manages a slight smile, trying for something playful— it doesn't really work, but at least it's a smile. ]
massochism: (olivine067)

[personal profile] massochism 2024-02-12 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's clear to him that he's a little more comfortable in his skin than Kaveh, at least in this particular circumstance. He's no doubt fine under normal ones, but... well, Klein is certainly a place.]

You make it sound like I won't find any enjoyment in this.

[a soft laugh, more of a giggle almost, escapes him as the priest gently guides Kaveh to lean on the wall. It's doubly convenient—the angle will help hide more of what's happening, and it's a sturdy enough space with something to lean on. His smile is reassuring, even a little mischievous, fingers gently reaching for the blond's towel as he draws to his knees.]

I don't mind just offering help, but it's something I would do for any friend in need, not just as a favor in the moment.

[plus, like. Honestly, he is kind of a slut, once you get past the limitations.]

[ Despite the ache of embarrassment, Kaveh finds a soft laugh lifting to his own lips in response to Olivine's own— especially once the other guides him to lean against the wall, sinks to his knees in a way that makes it very evident what he plans to do. ]

It seems like we're even more alike than I gave us credit for, before.

[ Kaveh smiles, reaching to gently thread fingers into the other's hair, neither demanding or even seeking more— just touching, letting himself relax into the idea of this happening. His towel is lost to that mischievous smile, and against all odds he finds himself relaxing. ]

This would have been my answer, too, if the roles were reversed.

[Olivine is—sensitive. physically speaking, that is. it's a little comical sometimes, just how easily he sets to shivers, glancing up from behind long lashes.]

It's an answer that's enjoyable on either side, isn't it? The taste, the way it feels...

[setting the towel aside, the priest's fingers finally trail over Kaveh's cock, delicate but firm, getting a feel for its size as the other cups his balls, squeezing gently.]

And I'd be lying to say I'm not curious how you taste... sorry. [it's given sheepishly, considering their intentions before this, but honestly. he isn't that sorry, and it's clear by how little hesitation there is when he leans in, tongue dragging up from the base of his shaft to the tip, circling the head once, twice, before his mouth closes over it.]

I tend to agree with that, [ Kaveh responds with a smile. He's about to point out though that he's definitely met those who would not agree, but his attention is taken quickly by the feel of the other's fingers on him, skating so lightly— but strongly— over his cock and taking his balls into his hand to squeeze. The sensation has the blonde lean harder into the wall, a low groan at the back of his throat. ]

Mm, no— don't apologize.

[ After all, whatever happened to him is what's gotten them into this mess in the first place; surely any apology should come from him first and foremost. But such points are very quickly taken from his mind by the feeling of tongue, of lips, and Kaveh groans again, fingers knotting tighter into Olivine's hair. ]
