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. ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● N A V I G A T I O N

Action
[Well this is. This is new. This is not what normally happens when he dies - not that he makes a habit out of dying all that often. He probably looks a little strange standing there patting himself down from chest to thighs, a slightly bewildered, perplexed look on his face.

Maybe he did have a lot to drink last night, wound up waking up somewhere he doesn't recognise again. It's not as disconcerting as it should be. He has questions for the hospital staff, a lot of questions, but they don't seem interested or don't have the answers as they lead him ever so excruciatingly politely to the door. Bunch of fucking wankers.

It's a frustrating experience overall, and the constant beeping isn't helping. John backpedals away from the hospital entrance with his head lowered trying to pull the stupid watch wristband smart whatever off his wrist, unaware that he's either about to collide into someone or walking backwards straight into the path of an oncoming bike/scooter/personal mobility device.]


Text
[Of course, once it starts to click where he is, it seems like he's not-died and gone to paradise anyway. This is totally Constantine's type of town.]

Yes

[Yeah, that's the text. Did you tell him he's attractive or ask him if he's down to fuck? Maybe you offered to hold him, or hold him down and fuck him. He doesn't even know what half those vegetables and fruits mean. He's just happy to be alive and he's in a celebratory mood.]

I like a bit of pain. When and where?


Wildcard
(Up for anything, just start a thread. If relevant, John is pansexual and kink list is here.)

[telahnem]

Hey!

[ suddenly there's something pushing against john's back, shoving him forward and away again. and if he turns to look, the figure in question is a small elf, white braids looped loosely around his throat to keep them out of the way, arms folded. he didn't push him with his hands, then, at least. ]

Try to watch where you're going, yes? [ he gives him a once-over, mouth twisting into a frown. ] And don't take that thing off. I've found the hard way it's some sort of.. magic.. translation device.

[conjobs]

[John stumbles forward and he spins around almost fast enough to trip over himself, clearly still a little disoriented. He'd be a bit snappy, irritable, brusque if he hadn't laid his eyes on the lad.]

Right. [He presses his lips into a thin, flat line and lowers his hand.] Any idea how to turn off the buzzing, mate?

[telahnem]

A bit, [ he admits a little warily, and after a moment steps closer again, reaching for john's wrist and the bracelet around it.

he'd just found it by accident the first time, poking at the buttons, but he's picked up a few things in the last little while. it still takes him a moment to remember what to touch and where, but finally, the noises and buzzing stop, and his glance flicks up, brows arching faintly. ]

Like that, yes? I'm told one can communicate with it, but I've not bothered to send messages yet. [ he's certainly received a few, though. ]

[conjobs]

[John lets him take his wrist without complaint. He's still a little intrigued, to be honest, curious about those facial markings. While he hasn't asked or said anything, he might be staring a bit while buttons are being pushed and fiddled with.]

Cheers love. It's been ringing non-stop. [And for someone who doesn't even keep a phone handy with him most of the times, it's a struggle.]

Did you just get here?

[telahnem]

Don't call me that, [ he says almost reflexively, because in his experience, pet-names from humans never lead to anything good. there's no heat in it, though-- it sounds more like a verbal tic than anything else. ] My name is Hadis of Clan Lavellan.

[ he pushes a few stray strands of hair behind one pointed ear, chin lifting as he looks the other man over thoughtfully. ]

.. A bit ago. Long enough to learn a little. Not long enough to do much exploring yet.

Action

[bitterfrost]

[ The person he collides with has a hand out to steady him almost as soon as he steps back, putting space between them, his expression neutral as he surveys the stranger, the band on his own wrist beeping, even if muffled by his black and gray robes There's also a sword on his back and a horsetail whisk draped over one arm. ]

Excuse me. [ That's the translation at least, Song Lan offering a bow in greeting and apology if or when Constantine turns to face him. ] I was distracted by the noise.

[conjobs]

[They probably both look completely foreign to each other. At least, John is vaguely familiar with that attire, it has a somewhat historical feel to it. Conversely, some trenchcoat noir detective aesthetic is probably not something all that common.]

No uh- that was. Me. [His eyes latch on to that horsetail whisk. Yes, he knows what it's for, but it looks. Kinda kinky.] That uh... [John vaguely gestures.] Where'd you get that?

[bitterfrost]

From my master when I left my temple. [He answers after a moment, looking faintly confused, his gaze dropping to the whisk for a moment.]

I suppose it's not that common a sight in a place like this, though.

[conjobs]

Right. Of course. [Too bad, Johnny boy. Could have been submitting to a master in a temple instead of specialising in demonology and exorcisms.

He's mildly disappointed it wasn't something acquired here, but he'll get over it in short order. He's got priorities.]

Oh it'd be fairly common I would think, of the black and nine tailed variety. Hey I know it's a wee bit of a stretch but. There a pub or any sort of store nearby? [Yes, he's aware that it looks like this place got overrun by zombies or something nasty must have happened here, but. Doesn't hurt to ask, maybe someone knows something another block away or maybe the next town over.]

[bitterfrost]

They're usually only given to those leaving the temples to travel the world. [He's slightly confused over the comment but lets it slides. ]

I have yet to find an inn myself, but there should be somewhere...

Text

[softheartedshizun]

Yes? Yes to what? Isn't that a bit of too much information?

[If he had sent a text he was completely unaware of it, but then, it was already sending things out automatically, it was worse than that evil demonic system he had to deal with before here.]

[conjobs]

Yes I am partial to clamps and I will have sex with you. [That's what he asked, right?] Is what too much information?

[softheartedshizun]

That's presumptuous of you.

You can keep your clamps and your desperate eggplant to yourself.

[conjobs]

[Hey, what kind of teasing is this?] What eggplant? Didn't you reach out to me first? [Where's the pouting emoji? Is there a pouting emoji in here? Oh, he thinks he's found it.] 🥺

[softheartedshizun]

(¬_¬ )

No. Though, I suppose my device may have, on second thought.

[covertness]

just for the record
what do you think you just agreed to?

[conjobs]

Licking your shoes and putting ice cream on my nipples. Honestly? I'm not sure about twelve inches up the arse, I could maybe do eight, but it's really not a dealbreaker mate.

[covertness]

well, i'm impressed
the ice cream sounds good, though
do you actually have ice cream?

[conjobs]

No but I'm still at the hospital and there might be some here. You asked so I figured you had some.

[covertness]

i don't
i also didn't actually send that

care to have a look around for ice cream? now i have a craving

text

[withinreach]

you're not very picky, are you?
I'm not saying I'm not into a little bondage, but not usually with strangers

[conjobs]

Is that a bad thing? We don't have to be strangers for long, mate.

[withinreach]

I can't say that I've never been there. usually under extenuating circumstances though
I guess it's not like there's a cantina around here where you can talk to someone over a few drinks

[conjobs]

I'm curious what counts as extenuating circumstances if waking up in a very strange place doesn't make the list.
Found that out the hard way. Could have used a stiff one.
