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

He only laughs as he tucks the stolen fan away. They both know how well Kexing handles frustration, though admittedly he's better these days.

Zishu lets the music calm himself too. But once their new little home is fixed up and cleaned, and his soulmate wanders back to him for that kiss, he puts his flute down to tilt his head up to welcome that kiss. He slips one hand up into the beautiful white hair and deepens the kiss with a low hum.

Fingertips trace over Kexing's face and he steals another kiss before pulling back a little. "Are you brave enough to try a bath, Lao Wen?" Teasing lips just barely brush against his soulmate's as he asks the rather silly question.

[scramordie]

He was getting better with his frustrations, or how he handles them, but that wasn't to say that something wouldn't get hurt still. Or, in this case, broken and dismantled.

The kiss is more than welcome. It was one of the things he loved about his Zishu, the heated kisses. Even if they didn't start out that way they always ended that way. So, one hand is braced against his soulmate's shoulder and the other on the back of the couch, deepening the kiss more.

Another kiss and he gives a grin, as well as a slight laugh," Are you brave enough to try it with me, A-Xu?" It was, in his opinion, a very silly question. Just as silly as his own.

[fated_dance]

Every breath with his Kexing is life. Zishu is glad to see his beloved calmer - but it wouldn't change anything in how fiercely he loves this man.

He smiles as the kiss deepens and slips an arm around his soulmate's neck to enjoy it. Being with this man will never get old, or grow boring. Their connection is too solid to be damaged at this point.

The grin and little laugh with the tease back makes him grin right back. "I think I might be, if you're with me." As if either of them are afraid of anything...except losing the other.

[scramordie]

Zishu was everything to him. If not for him then he would've probably faltered by now. Possibly even gone a little insane. His mind would've still been in that fragile state. However, he had this man by his side. Alive and well.

The moment that arm slips around his neck he slips fully into his lap. If anything ever happened to this man then he would tear apart the world. Raze it to the ground and make every last one of them pay, then follow him into death.

"I am always with you, A-Xu."

It was just a matter of them getting up now.

[fated_dance]

If not for Kexing, Zishu would literally be dead. He'd have continued to not care about living. He'd not have bothered looking for a cure. But he has his soulmate with him, and life matters again. And now they won't die, so long as they are careful. He'll do anything to stay with Kexing.

Having a lapful of Kexing only prompts him to wrap his other arm around his soulmate's waist and pull him closer. He presses in for another kiss, again lingering before bothering to answer. Getting up? Now? No. The bath can wait.

"I know," he murmurs against his beloved's lips. Then nips at them playfully before soothing with another soft kiss, fingers running slowly, gently, through that white hair. "What do you want your reward to be for all your work today?" For once he'll let his soulmate choose. Anything.

[scramordie]

There had been fear, at one point, that he'd lose Zishu. If he had it would've been his own doing. Something that he will never repeat. Not when the man whose lap he's in means the world. No amount of revenge or want in the world would keep him from this man before him.

There was no reason to get up now. Getting up would be too much hassle. Yes, the bath sounded good, but he was content right where he was. The bath would come. Eventually.

He closes his eyes at the feel of those fingers through his hair, kissing the other back. It's only at that question that his eyes open, almost a hint of amusement on those lips. "You, A-Xu." That's what he wanted. "Right here." Or anywhere in the room, he didn't care.

[fated_dance]

Years in the past. They've fixed that. Moved past it and shown their bond is stronger than it. Now they know just how far the other will go to stay together.

All the way.

Anything at all to stay together.

Zishu laughs at the ready answer, head tipping back for a moment before he leans in for a quick, harder kiss. How far can he tease his lover today until Kexing gives up and strips him? "You can have me," he promises though. As if there's any real doubt. It's just a matter of position...He rubs over his soulmate's scalp, fingers gentle.

"Do you need me to do all the work?" Playful. Teasing. But also offering, as he pokes at just what his soulmate wants precisely at this moment.

[scramordie]

There were many things they fixed but it's that one that will stay with the ghost lord the most. Of course, there were other instances but those didn't have anything to do with his Zishu.

Kexing will always be glad that he stalked this man before him. That he was relentless in his persuit of Zishu. It all panned out in the end. Their bond became stronger. They both also knew that they'd lay their lives on the line for the other.

Now? They had all eternity to do just that. Even if before showing up in this place they had been kind of stuck. Stuck together forever is the best way to do things, though. Especially with your soulmate.

Kexing gives a soft contented sigh at the feel of those gentle fingers on his scalp and deepens that harder kiss, though he gives a bit of a laugh at the question.

"Mm. You should do all the work tonight, A-Xu."

He's not in the mood to do all the work himself.

[fated_dance]

He loves those little sighs just as much as he adores making his Kexing moan and cry out in passion.

Zishu laughs again and nips lovingly at his soulmate's lips before trailing his fingers down that long neck, then gets to work on untying Kexing's robes as he simply settles in to keep kissing his soulmate.

In this, he has absolutely no problem doing all the work. He still pulls back after a moment to let them breathe, fingers dipping past cloth to stroke over bared skin. "Then relax, Lao Wen. Let me love you."

[scramordie]

The nip to his lips has him giving a bit of a laugh of his own. The finger down his neck gets a slight shiver that runs through him. Then again, any touch from his Zishu could cause shivers.

Those kisses are ones he enjoyed every day, all day. If he could get away with only those then he'd still be happy. Though, he prefers the feel of the other's body against his own far too much. He'd never give up that just for kisses alone.

The kiss is deepened because it can be. It's only when they need to breathe that he pushes fingers up the back of Zishu's hair, nipping his bottom lip. He can even feel the jump of muscles under those fingers on his bare skin.

"Mm. I like the sound of that, A-Xu."

He would allow Zhou Zishu practically anything.

[fated_dance]

Making his Kexing shiver is just another part of the fun!

Zishu would also be content just kissing this man forever. But why keep just to that when they can do so much more? He leans into those hands as they slip into his hair, and that answering nip makes him grin as he pushes the last bit of cloth from his soulmate.

Then smooths his hands over the familiar body, enjoying the perfection and strength of his husband's body. It pulls a familiar hunger out and he pulls Kexing's hips firmly against him, fingers slipping around to dip and rub playfully over his beloved's entrance.

"Then it's good I got extra supplies, isn't it?" He leans in for another kiss, eyes bright before he reaches into a sleeve pocket to pull out a jar of oil - scented, it claims, with roses.

[scramordie]

The Ghost Lord would probably be upset if they kept to kissing only, no matter how good those kisses were. Kisses that could leave him breathless and wanting. It depended on the mood that his Zishu was in on that day.

When he's pulled firmly against him, robes on the floor, he presses down and gives a soft groan at those fingers playing over his entrance. His A-Xu could be such a tease.

He gives a bit of a laugh and kisses him back,"Mm. It's a good thing you did, then." Even if they would've found some way to make do. "What other extra supplies did you find, A-Xu?" It's asked even as he nips his husband's bottom lip.
