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

Wait, you know...? How did you find out?

[gottabeshidinme]

How else could I find out?

Don't tell me your memory has become so bad that you've forgotten already?

[Wuxian may make a big deal of his memory being terrible, but Jiang Cheng has sure never experienced it as such.]

[noenvy]

I know I never told you, so who else could possibly do so?

[Wen Ning...]

When did he tell you?

[He can maybe guess....]

[gottabeshidinme]

Are we really going over this again?

Are you going to keep insisting on reminding me of your amazing deed?

[noenvy]

[If he could shout at him he would! It was very difficult to do through a written medium. How unfair!]

You brought it up yourself. You were never supposed to know. Who cares? I already left you alone, why are you coming at me like I'm going out of my way to bother you?

[gottabeshidinme]

[You leaving him alone is like 99% of the problem he has/had with you??? How dare you bring that up!!]

Of course I wasn't supposed to know! How convenient that was for you, for your amazing sacrifice to stay your little secret to lord over me.

[noenvy]

[He's getting so many mixed signals, wasn't that what he was supposed to do?]

If I never tell you, how is that lording it over you? All I did was try my best, to do what I thought was right. To do my duty. Why are you like this? You pick at everything. You get mad when I don't come in, you get mad when I do! What is it that you want from me other than to die again?

[gottabeshidinme]

[Bold of you to presume that Jiang Cheng's signal isn't 360 degrees at all times!!

It was Wuxian's duty, really. So why does having that acknowledged only make Jiang Cheng feel worse in some ways? It's not like he hasn't known for a long time that he cares - cared - a lot more about the ties between them than Wuxian ever did. Wuxian came from the outside, and that's where he went back to.]

I never said I wanted you to die again. Don't put words into my mouth.

[noenvy]

[There was a time when he thought he understood Jiang Cheng well, that he understood him more than anyone else. That they had an understanding between them no one could ever compare to.

But now? Now he couldn't understand him at all. He felt like whatever he said or did was always the wrong thing for Jiang Cheng.]

I know what you do to people you think are me...

[How else was he suppose to take that?]

[gottabeshidinme]

That was then, this is now. When have I been trying to catch you recently?

[He's left you alone for a good long while by now, don't think you're the center of his world!!]

[noenvy]

It hasn't been that long. And you only just made a fit at Lotus Pier.

[What was Jiang Cheng even talking about. He never said anything in a straight forward manner!]

[gottabeshidinme]

Have you been too busy dual cultivating to keep track of time?

It's been months.

[Or maybe that's a slight exaggeration - but it's been a long time, at least!]

[noenvy]

What!? With who?

Don't mistake, we have just been traveling! Nothing of the sort has happened!

Nothing! Don't slander Lan Zhan!

[gottabeshidinme]

You ask with who, but you're already giving the answer, yourself.

Or was one man not enough for you, so you've been looking for others to warm your bed on top of that?

[noenvy]

Don't you dare! I'm not that kind of person and you know it!

I...

I'm not dual cultivating! I don't have a cultivation partner!

[gottabeshidinme]

Of course not. You're just sitting in each other's laps and feeling each other up to keep warm.

[noenvy]

I have never not once sat in his lap, what are you talking about? Are you that mad I took him into the ancestral shrine? Then so be it. Be mad, but be mad at me, stop insulting his good name.

[gottabeshidinme]

So you do remember that much?

I don't have to insult his "good" name when he does that enough all by himself.

[noenvy]

Take that back!

[gottabeshidinme]

Am I supposed to make apologies when the actions are his?

[noenvy]

He has done nothing wrong! You are being unfair. Say what you want about me, I'm shameless and terrible, but don't say untrue things about him! Don't let my reputation bring him down. He is not at all like you have said.

[gottabeshidinme]

You really haven't progressed even a little bit.

I should thank Second Master Lan for taking a stain like you off Yunmeng Jiang's hands.

[noenvy]

I haven't been in YunmengJiang's hand in over a decade! Hanguang Jun hasn't taken me off anything! We're just friends, we're just trying to solve a crime!

Where are you! I'll teach you a lesson since you want one so badly!

[gottabeshidinme]

[W O W rub it in, why don't you!!]

You think you can teach me a question, with the state you're in?

If you're that desperate to die, I don't need to dirty my sword.

[noenvy]

[Maybe he wouldn't if they could act reasonably for five minutes.]

Don't underestimate me Jiang Cheng! I might not have a core, but I'll still take you on as your shixiong! Have some manners!
