TDM 014: A DAY AT THE FAIR
| 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):
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 |

Well - eheheh - honestly, it seems a little strange? They make you sit around in the sauna for a while and then they just kind of lightly hit and massage you with the leaves? So, if you're worried about them hitting too hard, there's no worries there!
[Look, she has no way of knowing that he'd want them to hit hard, okay.]
no subject
[He wrinkles his nose in distaste. Not only is it just lit hitting, but it involves the sauna.
He's... not good with heat. With his condition it's somewhat difficult to regulate his body temperature the way normal people do, so he tends to avoid heat when he can help it.]
no subject
Maybe, but people do at least seem pretty relaxed afterward, heheh! And they smell pretty nice when the come out. But, I suppose I'm not certain of what your tastes would entail.
no subject
...Let's leave it at, I wouldn't get much out of being pampered like that. A shower's all I need.
[At least with a shower there's some water pressure against his scalp and body.]
It's not important.
no subject
[Which was why she hadn't really actually used much of the services here, aside from the showers.]
But ah, that's a good idea, since you likely won't find any living spaces around here without a shower. I can show you to them, if you'd like?
no subject
Sure. Lead the way.
no subject
They're just right down here, heheh!
[Thankfully, it's not too long of a walk at all, and it's less than a minute later when she stands in the opening of the shower room, making a gesture with her hand.]
And here we are! [The little motion is enough to automatically have LB hike up her outfit a little more to avoid a sudden nip slip, but at this point it had happened so often that she didn't even think to be embarrassed about it.] It's almost tempting to take a shower for myself, but ah - is there anything else I can get for you?
no subject
Probably not. Unless...
[He turns to her.]
Are shampoo and conditioner already in there?
[He might as well check now before she runs off.]
no subject
[LB is about to reach for a couple of complimentary sized bottles, but stops short. Even if she didn't usually mind the side effects of things around here, typically, it would be amiss of her to not mention the risks of using the things here made by the robots.]
But, uh - eheheh - are you aware of the effects that can occur in the items around here? It's not all the time, but you never know...
no subject
[His expression turns suspicious. Is she conning him here?]
no subject
[LB frowns in thought for a moment, tilting her head. Yeah, fuck it might as well not beat around the bush for once.]
Sometimes if an item comes from a robot, it has some kind of horny effect to it, ahaha. I don't ever recall the shampoo and conditioner having any particular effect on people. But I can also get out of here just in case.
no subject
[And yet uh.... having aphrodisiacs to consume would come in pretty handy, given his sensory issues.]
no subject
[Because yeah, the latter seemed to happen an odd amount of times around here too. But even if she briefly frowns at that thought, LB quickly brightens up as she adds:] Oh, but at least for that, it's just something you typically just wake up to, as opposed to consuming an item!
[Because yes, that makes it so much better.]
no subject
The last thing I wanted to hear was that it was even a thing.
no subject
Yeah, I suppose that's not especially fun to deal with, eheheh! But! At the very least, it doesn't seem like it's affecting you now.
[Gotta... look on the bright side.]
no subject
I'm taking my chances.
[He turns to head on into the bathing area on his own.]
no subject
[Yeah, she hasn't exactly learned the art of being reassuring. An awkward smile passes as she backs up a couple of steps as the stranger steps forward to enter the showers.]
Um, well. Enjoy your shower, then!
