TDM 001

TDM 001: TFLU







( 1 ) After leaving the teleportation chamber, you are gently coaxed out of the hospital and encouraged to find a place to stay. Maybe you've had time to check out your A5 app. Maybe you're just settling in. It's cloudy, overcast, cold -- you'll want to seek out someplace warm.

Also, your device is beeping. A lot. The tech on the island works, it just doesn't work right. You can't seem to send a message to the correct person.

It's time for...

Texts From Last Universe




( 2 ) What's this? Your bingo card has just been beamed to a stranger's inbox...?!
( sample A5 cards -- NSFW, may contain triggering content, please feel free to use/ignore as you see fit)


( 3 ) And now you're receiving messages from other users that they don't remember sending:

Nice shirt. It would look better on my floor.

10/10 would ride it into the sunset.

This user thinks you're attractive.

u up?

🍆



( 4 ) Once you figure out that the robots have been hacking your devices, it's no easy feat to track one down and demand they stop. "So The Augur wills!" they wail in a monotone. "So it is done!"

Any attempt to actually contact The Augur and get back into the hospital will be met with beefy robot bodyguards, who suggest taking a gentler approach to fix your devices.

If you know what they mean.

Wink.

(This is your overt kink prompt. Please label any threads accordingly.)

Note: All prompts are optional. The theme for this TDM is "malfunctioning devices." They can be fixed by indulging in the squares on your cards. For the sake of the TDM, you can use one of the pre-generated examples or a wildcard from the kink list. This can be used as a free bingo square completion once you have been accepted into the game. Players are welcome to wildcard their own TDM prompts; we only ask that you try to stick to the theme.

[He could safely say now. He'd been officially wink wink nudge nudged. Welcome to Brit-humor, Jon. It was terrible. Even more so when you added 'cat' to the mix.]

I feel honored. I should make a note.

Eighteenth of May: Lucas mortifies one Jonathan Sims via text.
Date noted.


[Was that a joke? It might have been a joke.]
theriomorphism: (Talking - 3)

[personal profile] theriomorphism 2020-05-18 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[It was a joke. Good for you, Jon.]

There, that didn't hurt so much, did it? I bet you even liked it.
recordingends: (Default)

[personal profile] recordingends 2020-05-18 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I will confirm nothing.

[A smile that lasts for all of two seconds before he remembers where he is and what's happening. Or rather, to remember that he doesn't know the answer to either of those questions.]

Doesn't seem the right time to joke, anyway.
theriomorphism: (Hopeful - 1)

[personal profile] theriomorphism 2020-05-18 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't entirely agree. I'd say when you're off balance is a good time to joke. Puts things in perspective.
recordingends: (Default)

[personal profile] recordingends 2020-05-18 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
And what perspective is that?
That I woke up in a strange hospital, not recalling how I got there?
Or that I've been turned out into a world that isn't familiar, with things like lascivious bingo cards and malfunctioning technology??


[Sorry Lucas, the paranoia is real.]
theriomorphism: (Smile - Side 1)

[personal profile] theriomorphism 2020-05-18 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Exactly! It could be worse. You're alive. Have all your bits and pieces

I hope.

And consider this a new and novel experience to talk about when you're old and grey. As an academic, I'd think new experiences are a preference.
recordingends: (Default)

[personal profile] recordingends 2020-05-18 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I already feel old and I'm going grey.
New and novel experiences are very low on my list, if I'm perfectly honest.
theriomorphism: (Funny look - 1)

[personal profile] theriomorphism 2020-05-18 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Perhaps you're young at heart?

Consider this a chance for something rare to others. I'd wager experiences like this don't come along all the time.

Life is for living, mate.
recordingends: (Default)

[personal profile] recordingends 2020-05-18 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
And how do you do your living, Lucas?
theriomorphism: (Lip lick - Down 1)

[personal profile] theriomorphism 2020-05-18 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
As much as I can. I'm a musician. I travel. And curiosity's in my nature.
recordingends: (Default)

[personal profile] recordingends 2020-05-18 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Curiosity?

[He almost laughs.]

yes, well. I have indulged that, at least.
theriomorphism: (Default)

[personal profile] theriomorphism 2020-05-19 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
It's not so bad a thing.

As it stands, we're here, aren't we? Might as well attempt not to be forced into anything.
recordingends: (Default)

[personal profile] recordingends 2020-05-19 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
Would you like to meet in person?
theriomorphism: (Laugh - Down 1)

[personal profile] theriomorphism 2020-05-19 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
Are you sure that's wise? I mean, you might just find yourself having a good time or making a friend.

Perish the thought.

[personal profile] recordingends 2020-05-19 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
I've been told I'm very smart with no common sense.
It would be a shame to disappoint people now

besides, I'm told I should embrace new experiences
theriomorphism: (Over Shoulder - 1)

[personal profile] theriomorphism 2020-05-19 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
Clearly you've been given good advice by a very wise source. I'd listen to them.
recordingends: (Default)

[personal profile] recordingends 2020-05-19 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
I'm... not very far from the hospital. Uhm

[Jon looks around, trying to find some kind of useful landmark.]

There's a broken fountain. I'm standing by that.
theriomorphism: (Distance - Distracted 1)

[personal profile] theriomorphism 2020-05-19 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
Ah. You want to play hide and seek? I'm rather good at that.

[Understatement. Give a cat something to hunt down and it turns into a little game.]
recordingends: (Default)

[personal profile] recordingends 2020-05-19 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
This is hardly hide and seek. If I could figure out how to send you a picture, I would.

[He wonders if he should go back to the hospital entrance, but he can see it from where he's standing, so surely he can't be that hard to find. Who else looks like a permanently exhausted academic and is standing by a desolate looking fountain?

Desolation... but nothing here seems like it's been burned completely to ash, so he's almost certain that whatever this is, it's not that. He absently rubs the burn scar that wraps around the back of his hand. It's not his only scar: he has several pockmarks going up his neck and the side of his face.

Jon keeps his eye out for someone that looks like they're... looking. The moment he sees Lucas, he knows, and he takes the risk of calling out.]


Lucas!

[But not too loudly. He would prefer not to have too many people looking at him.]
theriomorphism: (Smile - 2)

[personal profile] theriomorphism 2020-05-19 09:00 am (UTC)(link)
[He doesn't have to be loud for Lucas to hear him; his hearing is incredibly acute even in this form. He looks at the source of the voice, scenting the air as he strolls over to him with a smile. Does he smell entirely human? Angry? As tired as he looks?]

'Lo, Jon. You barely made a game of it. I'm supposed to have to work to find you.

[The smile is affable, as is the manner in which it's given. As he comes closer, he'll be looking for any signs of distress or fear. Body language gives away more than some people realize, but that might be because most people rely on vocalization.]
recordingends: (pic#14002955)

[personal profile] recordingends 2020-05-19 12:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll try harder next time.

[He doesn't smile, not exactly, but for a few moments at least he seems like he's bristling less. He smells faintly of cigarette smoke and the last soap he used. He seems human enough.

And he is absolutely as tired as he looks. Maybe moreso. Despite being in his early 30s, his hair is greying.

Jon isn't afraid, per se, nor is he as distressed as he could be. He's uncomfortable and he's guarded.]


Hide and seek is much easier to start playing when you have no idea where you are to begin with.
theriomorphism: (Smirk - 1)

[personal profile] theriomorphism 2020-05-19 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[All things picked up and catalogued away in the back of his mind. Jon doesn't come across as someone easily given in to joviality. Which, Lucas thinks, is a shame. But some people were just too serious in their day to day, and it was a pity.

So when he came up to Jon, he came up a little too close. Personal space was something he had to struggle to remember, even when mingling with humans. It just seemed so silly, and touch was always a good base for conveying a greeting and pleasure.

Still, the smile was there, and he continued to give off the air of a man who didn't get bothered by much.]


Fair point. Perhaps you'd prefer a game of tag or chase and catch?
recordingends: (pic#14002955)

[personal profile] recordingends 2020-05-19 03:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[He's also not particularly tall and he finds himself looking up at Lucas when he steps closer; Jon takes a small step back, attempting to maintain something of a personal bubble.]

I'm much better at hiding than I am at running.

[At least, one of those was much easier on his cardiovascular system. There's something about the comment that sticks in his head and a voice that whispers the Hunt. Maybe that's just paranoia and an overactive imagination, but both of those have kept him alive, more or less, up til now.]

It's uhm. Nice to meet you face to face.
theriomorphism: (Thoughtful - 1)

[personal profile] theriomorphism 2020-05-19 05:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Is it?

[The step back is noted, and it reminds Lucas that he's not among his own kind. A quiet whisper of a thought of wondering if there were any others like him here, and then he shrugged it off to consider later. Clearly the man liked his space. It just made him want to drape himself over him out of a need to be contrary, but he kept that space between them, though the smile turned a little wicked.]

We all have our strengths, darling. Academia may be yours.

[There was Welsh in his voice, the accent accounting for the potentially odd pet name.]

Have you done any poking around?
