TDM 014: A DAY AT THE FAIR

00. Arrival

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. If you don’t manage to get away from them quickly enough, they may even usher you toward the Laid Bare Spa, where new arrivals will be offered free massages, a sauna, hairstyling, and their clothing may come up permanently missing. But you will be given a complimentary towel to leave with if needed!

Feel free to explore the Island, though there isn’t much to see beyond what arrivals before you have helped to rebuild. 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 place to live in the now, whether a rundown apartment in the City, a tent on the beach, a bed in the barracks, or your own space at the House of Worship. Your inventory will be found a day later, wrapped up haphazardly and delivered to each person's makeshift home.

I. HAY FEVER

A new mode of transportation has made an appearance! From one end of the fairgrounds to the other, and even sometimes off the beaten path and into the wilds, robot-horse-drawn hay wagons shake, rattle, and roll. And, of course, what are hay wagons great for? Anyone fancy a roll in the hay?

Anyone who is taking a hay ride will see their A5 card flash - and they will be given the option to trade one square for the vehicles square. (New players engaging in this prompt can call it a freebie.)

But beware! The wagons roll at all hours of the day and night. At night, the spooks come out to play! Rides will be "haunted" by frightful spooks played by machines and your local Islanders. The 'bots will hire anyone interested to don their favorite slasher costume or ghostly garb. After all, everyone knows that fear and adrenaline are related to attraction, right? Just another thoughtful service provided by your generous benefactors.

II. Acute Beef Poisoning

How about an eating contest? Multiple competitions are held throughout the fair: hot dogs, hot dogs, pies -- just use your imagination! Of course, there's always the chance that you've been recruited to be "eaten"... So sit back and enjoy the ride.

For those of you with an exhibitionist streak, all contests are held in front of an audience.

Be careful, ye who eat here, because the pies in particular have been known to have the following effects (with a two-hour duration):

Meat - A simple aphro pie; a character finds themselves craving a very different kind of meat.
Apple - Temporary amnesia befalls those who've tried the apple pie. The effects can be as great as forgetting your entire identity or as minor as forgetting what you've had for breakfast.
Cherry - Look upon the very face of innocence! All guile falls away from this character, making it impossible for them to lie.
Strawberry - The compulsion to follow orders may be strong sometimes, but the strawberry pie comes with the compulsion to give orders instead.
Blueberry - Oh no! You're looking a bit... off-color? The blueberry pie turns a character's skin blue for the next two hours.

III. BRODEO

Last but not least, try the mechanical contraptions of various sizes - equipped with equipment of various sizes as well! The objective of this game is to last as long as you can.

Thirteen Hand Sam is the smallest of the mechanical horses. It has no attachments, but instead vibrates until the rider orgasms.

Mechanic Mike is the second mechanical horse. With a modest six-inch dildo, it bucks its rider around until orgasm.

For those who like a real challenge, the mechanical bull -- the Bonine -- is a two-person contraption that straps each rider in with their own dildo. They sit face-to-face on the thrashing machine, within touching range, able to encourage each other to come (and to lose) more quickly.

Ride like you've never ridden before, or comfort someone in the aftermath of a job well done.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

That was definitely a come on. No, that was more like a blatant invitation which really didn't feel like Krem's usual character to him. Chris hadn't known him long and while he was a smart ass he wasn't a flirt in his experience.

"Krem... did you ask if the food was drugged before you joined that eating contest?" he asked, looking him over like he would spot obvious signs of bring drugged.

This was the second time this happened to Chris. He should probably get Krem out of here before he jumped a random stranger. If he was drugged. It seemed like it though, on the surface.

Chris shifted from that easy concern that Krem found awfully charming into the more paternalistic edge like when he'd found Krem out swimming and couldn't even look below his collarbone. Krem was tempted to ignore the question entirely, because it was a stupid one. Even if he had known, he still would have done the competition. At least half the food around here was drugged in some way or another, and if he was that picky about it, he was never going to eat anything.

"Are you going to ask me that every time I try to make a pass at you? Or just after I've eaten something?"

He stepped ahead a little, turning so that he could face Chris and walk backwards, still heading toward the shade they'd started out toward. "Because I've been trying to figure out how to let you know I'm interested since you started tossing me around that day on the beach."

"Probably should have said something before you were drugged." Chris was a little surprised that Krem was interested. They got along and Krem was fun to spend time with but he figured that was it. They were friends. "I'm a little skeptical since that stuff is pretty strong."

He had only a little taste on his first day here but it was enough to make him very cautious about what he ate and drank. Krem hadn't been so careful or he just didn't care. It felt a little reckless to Chris.

"How are you feeling? I mean, with the drug. Do I have to keep you away from other people?" He should at least keep Krem out of sight while the younger man got handsy with him. He was handling it better than Cana had though. He really seemed in control of himself.

"I've been saying a lot of something, even if I haven't been saying it out loud," Krem said, a little baffled that it wasn't getting through at this point. He scrubbed his fingers into his hair, looking at Chris with this lazy, dark-eyed look as they did pass into the shade of the tree they'd been headed to.

"I dunno. Weird. Not awful." He shrugged, licking his lips a little bit. "I'm not going to complain for one second if you want to keep me busy and distracted, Ser. Like I said, I could use having my stays loosened."

He was feverish, and his tongue was loose, but he didn't feel like running off with the first person he looked at. Maybe feeling like this would make it easier for him to let things happen, but he wasn't thinking about that. He was thinking about Chris's big, broad body and that admirable concern, and every moment of that got him a little more feverish.

"You can tell me no, you know," he said, frowning a little. "I won't be offended if you aren't interested. I was planning on being a girl for a night, if we ever did."

Okay, that last one was a little more embarrassing.

Chris blinked at Krem. "What does that mean?"

Okay, yes, Krem had female parts but he didn't see Krem as a woman. Chris lacked any experience dealing with someone like Krem as well. He thought it was better to always refer to them as their chosen sex. Was he supposed to call Krem a woman when they slept together?

If. If they slept together.

He ran a hand through his hair and huffed out a breath. "Look, I'm not against the idea of us sleeping together." Chris was pretty comfortable with casual sex. He really didn't mind that part of it. "But I don't want you to have regrets when the drugs wear off. And... okay, I don't want to do something to insult you."

Because he was pretty sure he'd say something stupid or do something stupid if they went to bed because he'd never been with someone like Krem.

Krem would be happy about the confusion and the admission, later. He would be warmed by the consideration for his wellbeing. But right now, he was fuzzy and distractable, and all that he really knew about the situation was that Chris had just admitted he wasn't against the idea and that bloomed something in his chest that ripped through him like wildfire.

He said, in a low voice that was growing increasingly heated as they spoke, "I wasn't sure if you would want to think of me like a man."

Under the tree, almost against its trunk, Krem untucked his shirt a little to reach up underneath it and, behind his back, loosen it a little bit. He obviously didn't need help with that. The loosening didn't have much of an effect, except that Krem let out a quiet noise that might have been pleasure. Then he dropped his hands and just watched Chris, patient but obviously keyed up.

"You're worried. That's more than most people would be. So I'm not."

"You told me you're a man. I respect that. Whatever parts you actually have." Chris hated the way he sounded right then. It was such a stupid way to talk about this situation. He was forty-eight years old and he couldn't talk about this like an adult.

Somewhere Claire was laughing at him.

The shade of a tree wasn't exactly a great place for this either. Chris would've liked some privacy even though things were fairly private. At least they weren't in the middle of the fair riding one of those bulls. How did he keep stumbling into these situations no matter how careful he was?

"How about something to take the edge off then you and I find somewhere more private?" he offered, his hands on his hips. "Unless you think you can make it back to my apartment without getting off first?"

There was part of him, desperate and hungry, that longed to insist that they could do more than take the edge off. Maybe not right here, but somewhere nearby. No need to go all the way back to an apartment, maybe. But he wasn't far gone. He wasn't positively wild. And though he was dripping with earnestness, he wasn't at a point of laying it out that they should just tangle up in the nearest alley.

He reached a hand out to Chris rather than say anything for a moment. Though his cheeks were flushed and his fingers shivered with anticipation, he looked utterly patient.

"How far is the walk?"

Chris considered Krem and his mental map of the city. Where could they go from here to get a little privacy that wouldn't be a long walk?

"Think you can make it to the beach from here? There are tents." It wouldn't be the most private place but Chris had a feeling Krem wasn't in the mood to walk back to his apartment. Chris had a basic one bedroom for now.

He definitely didn't want to go further into the woods or to the arena where Aphrodite might be to stumble on them. Probably shouldn't have someone walk in on them the first time they have sex. "Unless you've got a place in mind?"

Yeah, he was still trying to look after Krem even though he planned to fuck him until the drugs worked their way through his system.

"I can make it back to yours," he said, a note of protest in his tone of voice. Chris hadn't come any closer, was still hesitant about the whole thing, and if Krem was going to get thrown in cold water instead of laid out like he wanted to be, he'd prefer that happen inside than on the beach.

He didn't have anywhere else to go. Not anywhere that they could be alone. Not knowing that Dorian was in the city and that, if Bull found him, he would invariably be joining them in their little abode. But the thought of that was fleeting and inconsequential except to consider that Krem wanted to have Chris against him, and the cost of that was a little patience.

"Take me to yours," he said. He stepped away from the tree and, since Chris was hesitant, he reached out and touched him instead, running a hand slowly up from stomach to chest.

Look, Chris was still trying to be careful. He didn't want to tip Krem over the edge right here in the fair. He wasn't sure how much a simple touch would affect him and while Chris enjoyed a little risky sex now and then in the middle of everything was not his style.

He put his arm over Krem's shoulders and tugged him against his side, almost shielding him from anyone else looking at Krem. He was going to protect him, damn it. It was how Chris was as a person.

"My place it is." He started walking away from the fair, leaving behind the crowd.

In his experience with this it would only get stronger the longer it was in Krem's system. The last time, Chris had exhausted himself. Hopefully, he still had that stamina now.

Krem stayed close, quieted and consoled that, if nothing else, Chris wasn't completely off put by the attention. It was hard to keep his hands to himself, but he managed. Things were getting hazier and headier the longer he was left wanting, and as they made their way away from the fair and down to the beach front, Krem had to consciously focus on things outside of themselves to keep from devolving into being entirely lewd.

He was flushed, by the end of the walk, breathing a little heavily--though anyone that didn't know him very well might have thought it was from the walk in the heat rather than from the fire building rapidly inside him. He was good, and he waited until they were inside.

As soon as the door was shut, he grabbed a fistful of Chris's shirt, near the throat, and yanked him down to kiss him.

"Oh!" Chris grunted as Krem yanked on him. He stumbled into the kiss, not expecting it at all. Even though he could tell on the walk that the drug was clearly kicking in hard. He probably should've expected something like this. He did kiss him back for a minute.

"Hey, hey, easy," he coaxed as he drew back. "Come on, I've got a bed."

His little beach house didn't have anything in it right now which made it easy to nudge Krem towards the stairs. "And you definitely need it."

He figured little bit of time with Krem on his back while Chris took care of him should take the edge off.

"I don't," Krem assured, a breath exhalation against the kiss as Chris pulled away. He let him, though it felt like agony at this point. A shiver worked through him. They didn't need to go up stairs or to a bed or anything. They were inside. This was private.

He pulled at Chris again, dug his heals in a bit. There was a smile on his mouth as he physically protested being moved along. Stubborn and bratty and burning up.

"I'm not going to fuck you on the floor." Chris ducked down and tossed Krem over his shoulder. If he was going to be a brat, Chris was going to treat him like one.

He was heavier than Chris expected but considering his muscles maybe he should have expected it. Still, he was able to take the stairs two at a time keeping Krem in place with a hand on his ass.

"Have you let anyone treat you nice, Krem?" he asked as he walked them into his bedroom, empty except for a California king sized bed. The Augur clearly expected him to do a lot with his bed. He tossed him onto the bed and then pulled his shirt over his head.

Krem laughed and squirmed, a little, as Chris put him over his shoulder. Not too much. The stairs were a bad place for either of them to stumble, and he was a menace but not deliberately trying to cause problems.

When Chris tossed him onto the bed, he urgently stripped off his own shirt and reached behind his back to loosen his stay the rest of the way, enough that he could pull it off with a bit of creative wiggling. Normally, he wouldn't throw his clothes without care, but he was feeling too wild and flushed to be mindful.

"Yes," he said. He didn't roll his eyes or anything, though he did let out a bit of an exasperated noise, reaching for Chris. "You don't need to worry about that. You don't... I want this for both of us, not just me."

Chris put a knee on the bed chuckling as Krem squirmed around. He really was desperate. "I like thinking about the other person I'm about to sleep with. I like thinking about what I'm going to do to you."

He grabbed Krem by the ankle and pulled him down a little. Then he started on his pants to pull them off.

"And I'm going to take the edge off first. A few times." Chris didn't have the same drugs in his system. He couldn't match Krem need and desperation no matter how much he wanted the other man. So, one or two orgasms for Krem before Chris let Krem pay attention to him. "So, shut up and enjoy."

Krem let out a brief, giddy laugh as Chris yanked him by the leg. He sprawled on his back and didn't protest, lifting his hips as the older man worked his pants open and helping to pull them and his underclothes down.

Another time, he may have been embarrassed by how slick he already was, the mound of his cunt and his thighs already glistening with arousal just from the effects of the drugged food and Chris's considerate attention and their brief walk.

Before Chris could start, Krem caught him by the chin and looked at him. His eyes were dark with arousal but his expression was gently serious. "This is a man's body," he said, low and shivering with desire. "You can still tell me you don't want a man's body. I'll understand."

"You're an idiot." Chris leaned in and kissed him surprisingly soft and gentle. "I've slept with men before."

Yeah, none of them like Krem but seriously, he had slept with men. Krem didn't need to worry about him not getting turned on or something stupid like that. Or that he'd suddenly start thinking he was a woman. Hadn't they covered that at the beach? He wanted to give him attention first because of the drug.

"Now, will you let me go down on you already or is there some other semantic you want to work out?" Because he could see how aroused Krem was and Chris wanted to do something about it if the other man would let him.

"You can return the favor after I've taken the edge off."

Krem shivered against the kiss a little, holding himself back so he didn't tumble into that when Chris seemed to want to be kissing other things. He laughed into, into it, outside of it, and shoved Chris at the shoulders to push him, down and down, until he would settle between his thighs.

No, the semantics didn't matter. He just didn't want Chris to forget--especially after Krem had said that stupid thing about being willing to be a woman for him. He didn't want Chris to look at his body, no matter how considerate he was being, see all the parts of the whole, and forget that consideration.

"I will," he said, soft and breathless. "Fuck, I will."

Finally, it seemed like Krem was along with the program. Chris still almost rolled his eyes at him for going from cautious to eager in the blink of an eye. It really didn't take much. He wasn't going to forget consideration.

He would also fuck him stupid if he could keep up with the drugs in Krem system.

Chris pulled one of Krem's legs over his shoulder, shoved the other one over so that he could fit his broad shoulders down there. Then he put his mouth to work lapping at his folds with eager abandon. He used his fingers to hold him open so that he could get his tongue deeper.

It shouldn't take much given how desperate and wet he was against Chris' face.

It really wouldn't take much, especially with the insistence of Chris's attention. Krem let out a long, low noise as Chris manhandled him into the position he wanted, spread and exposed like that, that thrilled upward with pleasure as he began to lick at him. His thighs tensed slightly, his toes curling.

Krem had a lot of practice pleasuring himself, and comparatively little being pleasured. On top of that, the singing heat of the drugs in his system--multiplied by however much of it he had gotten in that stupid competition--made even that initial contact feel electric. Krem reached down and grabbed Chris's head to ground himself, to hold him close.

Chris was used to taking charge in bed. He liked it. He didn't stop Krem from grabbing his hair but he kept one hand on his hip to keep him from moving too much and his other on his thigh to keep him spread open.

He glanced up his body with a smug look in his eyes. Now that he'd finally stopped worrying it sounded like and look liked Krem was enjoying himself.

He moved his mouth up to his clit and sucked on it, trying his best to treat the little bundle of nerves like a cock for him. He wasn't sure if that was exactly the right thing but he knew it would feel good either way.

Krem's experience was still a bit limited, but he'd had some experience on this now. Mollymauk euphorically calling it his cock as he sucked and played with it, Peter treating it more broadly. Krem just appreciated that someone was willing to give the attention, finding the pleasure bright and electric, and hoping learning to receive it made him better at giving it in return.

He groaned and arched against the restraint of Chris holding him down. An entirely different sort of grapple than they'd done any time before, but no less pleasant.

In any case, he wasn't articulate in his pleasure any more. Little groaning sighs and the occasional burst of Tevene or Qunlat breathed into his panting squirms. Just this little bit of attention was almost enough to send him over for a first bout of pleasure.

When Krem started to wiggle Chris pressed down to make sure he couldn't go anywhere. He enjoyed the taste of him on his tongue and how damn wet he was. Sure, it was mostly the drugs that were responsible for that but it was still nice to feel against his chin. If he wiggled to much Chris wouldn't be able to focus on his work.

He loved this "job".

Chris flicked his clit with his tongue back and forth, swirled his tongue around it, and sucked on it hard. He had a little handicap with his hands holding Krem down and open but he wasn't ready to give in to fingering him yet.

His own arousal built to making his jeans tight. His hips shifted restlessly against the bed for a moment to relief the pressure and give himself a little pleasure.
