TDM 009: I'M IN LIKE WITH YOU

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.

"But it was meant to turn our lives into salvation for our worlds." Even with all the information that just opens up new avenues for people like them to tell themselves that they have to.

Colette doesn't mind being held; hugs are nice. Pyrrha is warm and strong. She rattles off the information about them, and she could probably go on quite a bit longer too if she feels like she has the time.

"There are humans and elves in my world, and those in between." Actually probably more half-elves now that they've formed their own communities. Elves don't seem to reproduce often. "And then there are also spirits and a few other kinds of life... but not many of those."

"What are Faunus like?" she finally asks.

Honestly she was comfortable in this position even if she had to kneel to hold Colette like this. So she just stayed like this and listened to what she had to say.

When prompted she thought of how to describe Faunus appropriately "They look a lot like humans, but there's some minor differences like many of them being able to see well in the dark, but the main difference is they each have a singular trait that is like an animal. So one Faunus may have a monkey's tail while others, like my friend Blake, has ears like a cat."

Now that things have settled down she does eventually let Colette go and went back to washing her hair. "Almost done, and after our bath I can help you brush your hair if you like."

It was comfortable indeed. Pyrrha was so big and strong, yet very comforting to be held by; kind and gentle.

People who look like humans, but with animal traits. Colette might... like the idea of having doggy ears, but maybe that's rude to say around a Faunus. "That sounds... well... cute." First and foremost, though, they're still people.

Colette straightens up a little when Pyrrha finally lets go. "Oh, that would be lovely too!"

Pyrrha giggled softly "Well there are definitely some cute Faunus out there," Blake being one of them, but she leaves that unsaid.

"Anything an animal has there's probably been at least one Faunus in history with that trait. Ears, tails, claws, wings or even fins." She described easily. "Of course that isn't all there is to them, there's rich history and cultures, but I'm not exactly equipped to give a history lesson." After all she was a student herself.

She smiles as Colette accepts the offer "Perfect, I just need to rinse your hair and then I can take my turn. So shut your eyes."

As promised she'd take the showerhead and rinse Colette's hair before replacing it and waiting for Colette to get up so she could take her place in the seat.

"I bet there are." Are there any here? Colette's sure she'll find out if there are, so it's not the most important thing probably. So many traits. Lots of history. A complicated discussion to have standing in a shower.

"Thanks." Colette closes her eyes, humming softly.
hello_again: (Warm thoughts)

[personal profile] hello_again 2021-02-02 10:18 am (UTC)(link)
She quickly rinsed off Colette's hair, once she was sure she had gotten all the soap out Pyrrha cheerfully said "All done!"

Then it was soon her turn, she'd take the seat as soon as Colette was up.

"Is there anything else about your world you'd like to talk about, or any questions you have for me?" She offered the potential conversation topics.
holeyjudgment: (Self-Control)

"Thank you." Colette walks around Pyrrha, trying not to let her gaze linger too much, but... maybe just a little is fine. She's so tall and strong - even if Colette can lift more than her, it's not something she feels she earned like Pyrrha must have.

Her hands work through Pyrrha's hair gently. "I'm not sure... there's so much that happened. But there's also a lot that's going to... happen... here."

A soft happy hum leaves Pyrrha's lips as Colette works on her hair. It's nice to just enjoy something like this every now and then.

She understands Colette's nervousness so she's quick to say "It's okay to be nervous, but you should take it one step at a time. First we'll get you clean and then we can find you a place to stay."

Then Pyrrha decides on the direction of the conversation "What kind of foods do you like?" It was simple and silly, but it was focusing on something concrete and would give Pyrrha a good idea of what to get Colette later.

Taking care of people, and being taken care of, is comforting. It already feels like she's getting closer with Pyrrha even without the conversation at hand. "I should do just that. A place to stay, clothes, food." The basics. "I've traveled on my own a bit, so I don't mind if things are a little... rustic."

Her fingers work through Pyrrha's hair casually. "I like fresh fruit, if there's any of that around here."
hello_again: (Default)

[personal profile] hello_again 2021-02-14 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
Pyrrha leans her head back slightly into the attention "I think you'll find the living conditions to be alright. We'll just have to find you somewhere to stay and I'll be sure to tell you how to find my place so you can fly over there if you need anything."

She smiles "I think we can find some fruit. Do you have a favorite fruit dish, like apple pie?"
holeyjudgment: (Don't Run!)

[personal profile] holeyjudgment 2021-02-15 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
"I'll help you in any way I can, too, once I'm settled in." Not a lot of options, but she can improve her versatility, she's sure of it.

"I like fresh fruit better. Like a fruit salad, or on a tart." Although apple pie sounds good right now too...
