TDM 009: I'M IN LIKE WITH YOU

00. Arrival This time, you come out of the water, the Nameless Island's own inherent energy drawing people in. It's like being suspended between realities and abruptly pushed from behind through a rift in dimensions. It may make you sick, or that might be the motion of the ocean, lifting you to the surface and carrying you to shore. Waterlogged and covered in sand, new arrivals will be greeted by robots who welcome them with towels and bracelet devices. The A5 card is already loaded up. Feel free to explore the Island, though there isn’t much to see. Most of the buildings are abandoned and in dire need of repair, and beyond the city lingers a thick fog that obscures much of the wilderness from view. Wander too far into this fog, and you will find yourself mysteriously looping back to where you began, your memories of what you were doing and how you got there erased. With that in mind, it may be wise to stake your claim on a rundown apartment, a tent on the beach, or a bed in the “comfortable” new barracks. Your inventory will be found a day later, wrapped up haphazardly and delivered to each person's makeshift home. ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● I. STARGAZER On the first night that new arrivals wash ashore, the moon rises. It's full and beautiful and surrounded by stars. The robots quickly bring old, dusty telescopes out of storage and line them up on the beach to help people get a truly spectacular view. "Look to the heavens! Behold, the chicken, the cat, the owl, the donkey!" It's... the cock, the pussy, the hooters, and the ass. For the rest of the night, characters will become fixated on the specific asset associated with the constellation they've gotten an eyeful of. Whether this leads to some body worship or just casual appreciation is up to you. You can learn about the stars and constellations later this month in some of the rare, non-pornographic books in the library. (More info will go up soon, so please be patient!) ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● II. STIMULATING CONVERSATION An ancient courting ritual has been announced! It involves the give-and-take of candy hearts with slogans printed on them. Of course, since these hearts are being manufactured by robots, their sense of taste is a little... off? Or perhaps off-putting? "You'll do." "5/10." "Acceptable." "Sloppy Seconds." Receiving a negative heart makes one feel insecure, jealous, and submissive. "Be mine." "Nicest ass." "Swell bulge." "They're good lays, Bront." Receiving a positive heart will make one feel confident, boastful, and dominant. Your friendly neighborhood 'bots will give them out to anyone who asks - and maybe even those who don't. ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● III. Eat Or Dare The robots have set up a stall by the beach with a banner that reads: Eat Or Dare. They have procured bigger candy hearts than ever before -- fist-sized and larger -- with actions written on them instead of derogatory slogans. "Take a dive." "Lick me." "Get handsy." The name of the game is to follow the instructions or forfeit the challenge by making the evidence disappear into your mouth. Delicious! Those who eat the candy hearts will feel themselves getting giddy and unreasonably invested in the love affairs of others. They will feel compelled to play matchmaker to spread the cheer. ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● N A V I G A T I O N

i'm so glad!! we're all excited for best girl

[711]

[Oh, it's you doesn't usually have the best connotations attached to it...? But this is Milly he's speaking to and she's as bubbly and effervescent as usual. All things considered, he's glad to see her alive and well. A shame they had to meet again on sex island, but life really do be that way sometimes.]

Here. Let's trade.

[Lest he really bring both hearts home and insult Lelouch's Hank Hill ass. With a smile, Suzaku takes the heart from her. He'll take this one as a compliment, thank you ma'am.]

Well... I'd be lying if I said I wanted to be here, but I'm happy to see you well. The robots haven't been giving you too much trouble, have they?

[Y'know, beyond their usual cries of INSERT TAB A INTO SLOT B, THE AUGUR DEMANDS AN OFFERING OF SEED.]

i'm so excited for a cast! i hope i don't disappoint!

[shesgotguts]

[whatever he wants, she amenable to it. trade? no problem. if he likes the other heart better, then that suits her just fine. it'll give her another opportunity to harass some poor sap that doesn't know what they're getting into with her.

suzaku is presently that poor sap, but she'll behave. for now.]

Oh, the robots are fine. They don't tell me anything I really want to know, but they're fine. [a shrug.] I can't blame them for trying their best, really. [just like she is, so there is sympathy for them.] I just wish I had a few more answers, though. I'm getting used to this whole "tossed through time and space" thing, but I'd like some clarity on the landing!

[711]

[A poor sap Suzaku may be, but at least he's a poor sap that knows what he's getting into? Well, arguably. He knows how you do, Milly. He knows well enough, but if Ms. Ashford is going to be milling about the island from now on, perhaps this will be a good opportunity to get to know her better.

But while Suzaku can arguably sympathize with her thoughts on Erku's semi-helpful robots, what's this about getting used to being tossed through time and space? Suzaku tilts his head to one side, puzzled.]

This has happened to you before? That's a little concerning. Unfortunately, none of us know how we got here or how to leave...

[So welcome to Sex Hell, Milly. You're here to stay just like the rest of them.]

[shesgotguts]

[she's all smiles, even as she puts the pieces together as quickly as she can. there's a sinking feeling that this is not her suzaku, or the suzaku she was just with, and the memories they share are from years ago. her eyes flicker to his face, and she narrows them as she examines him closely, taking a step closer to him as she tries to place him somewhere on the timeline of her life. his green eyes are still striking, his hair still artfully ruffled, his demeanour friendly enough... but something isn't right.]

In my experience, you'll never really know, and you leave when you least expect it. [an answer that answers nothing.] Suzaku, do you remember the last time you saw me? [it's a question that will solve one issue, but may give birth to a whole host of new ones.]
