Test Drive Meme: The Overflow, Part Deux!

CITY OF ARIEL: THE TEST DRIVE THE OVERFLOW, PART DEUX! Since the last post is again fast approaching 3k comments and getting laggy for some of our players, we have decided to go ahead and stick up the overflow post, even though there's just a little over a week to game start. Please continue your threads or start new ones here if you'd like. To make this easier on those continuing threads from the last meme, here's a handy form: <small>(<a href="THREAD URL HERE">Continued from here.</a>) between <user name="CHARACTER 1"> & <user name="CHARACTER 2"></small> Response here! Please remember to let your thread partners know you've bumped your threads over here as well! We started the meme early to give you plenty of room to do just that. ◆◆◆◆ With the City of Ariel grand opening only a month away, we are holding our first ever test drive meme. Tag in and see how your character would settle in the game. You're a fresh face in the city, newly processed, and arriving at a bustling time. The city is expanding and you are greeted first in the re-education center by your helpful counselors and then directed out of the building to a large festival. Be puzzled, make friends, have sex, or whatever you want! There are no restrictions on thread types played out here. Your first awareness that something has gone wrong comes during a groggy moment of semi-lucidity when you look around yourself and find that -- instead of wherever you remember being last -- you're in a chair, in a room with a man you don't recognize. He's sitting behind a desk whistling to himself and sorting paperwork. The whole atmosphere might remind you of a high school guidance counselor's office, only with far more comfortable chairs. When your head clears enough to speak and you ask him where you are, he smiles brightly and says, "Welcome to the City of Ariel." You were brought to Ariel during a very special time! There's a large festival going on celebrating the new expansions to the city and everything is decked out for it. Everything is bustling and vibrant in the city today because of the celebrations. There are decorations up, food vendors set up all along the streets, kissing booths, games, and just about anything else you can imagine an event like this would have! The people of Ariel are out and about as well, some are in vibrant costumes and others are just checking out the sights. Some of the more exhibitionist types are even having a little more fun out in public than you may be used to seeing back home. As soon as the grogginess from your arrival passes, you are allowed to leave the re-education center and see it all for yourself. Upon exiting, you are even handed beads of various colors, several of each so you don't worry about running out. Each color has a special meaning listed below: pink - toys blue - oral yellow - watersports green - age play lavender - crossdressing orange - multiples grey - bondage white - hands (mutual masturbation, fingering, handjob) red - blood black - wildcard These are to aid you in making a connection with others. Show your interest in others and tell them exactly what you would like to do with them by sharing the beads. If you would rather take a different approach, feel free to walk around the festival and see what (or who) catches your eye. The point is to relax and get settled in your new home.
TAG IN - Post your character's name, canon, and preferences. - Set up an opener in your comment or leave it blank. - Tag around and have fun!	USEFUL LINKS: [Premise] [Rules] [F.A.Q.] [Locations] [Local Citizens (NPC)] [Taken] [Wanted] [Reserves] [Application] [Main] [Logs] [OOC]

Sky's gone through the beads and the intro, wondering just how settled into the idea of this place she is. The tech more than intrigues her, and she'd stick around for that alone. The chip implant has her a little unsure, but maybe if she learns about it...

She finds herself juggling both a white and black bead in her hand, curious about the little system they had set themselves up here. Idly, she began looking for glimpses of other beads, wondering what was available and what she might get up to.


(Open as a setup for new threads as well as a holding place for carry overs from past threads.)

[reddirtydeeds]

Reno had long since forgotten about the beads which were currently residing in the bottom of his pocket along with his lighter. He had paid enough attention to find out what they were for before quite quickly losing interest in the concept. He did notice the ones that other people held as a matter of observation and the fact that this place was, in mind, fucking weird.

He saw her standing there, flipping the beads around in her hand while looking about with something just might be curiosity. He couldn't help but wonder...

Black bead - wild card.

"Those preferences or just the handiest?"

[codedvixen]

She looked up at the voice, brow lifted. "Preference out of the given options." Not like they had a bead for every kink, after all. And not like she was entirely eager to run around and see who'd do what for how many jellybeans. But the concept was curious, and the ratio of who was playing along versus who wasn't was equally interesting. "Why?"

[reddirtydeeds]

He shrugged and for a moment his green eyes flick over the crowd. His thoughts weren't so different, but he was likely less curious and more amused by the whole things.

"Curious. Not sure what I think about handing out beads in general, but gotta give 'em some credit for the gimmick. Hell of a way t' say 'hi', yeah?"

[codedvixen]

"Not sure I see anything wrong with just saying hi in the first place. Passing out beads just seems like they're begging to either get laid or rejected right off the bat. But, I suppose it saves time on, you know, actual conversation that doesn't involve 'where does this go?'." She shrugged, pocketing the beads again and giving him a look.

[reddirtydeeds]

"Or you could just say it and skip the damn beads. You might get shot down, but hell, that's a risk with or without 'em." Reno rolled his bottom lip between his teeth, head cocked to the side. "But it does let you know if someone is like minded."

Which was about the only bright side he saw to it.

[codedvixen]

"Which is, I'm sure, the point. Kinda like what drew you over, hmm?" She cocked a brow at him, wondering if it was the white or black that he'd caught a glimpse of.

[reddirtydeeds]

"Call me curious. Haven't actually seen too many people with that one in their hand." A quick gesture to the black bead. He'd seen both, but the darker of the two left a lot of room.

[codedvixen]

Fishing it back out, she held the black bead between her fingers, giving him a grin. "Hey, nothing wrong with a wildcard option, right? Kind of a 'whatever's not covered with the others' choice. And that's a wide list."

[reddirtydeeds]

"Nothing wrong with it at all. I'd say it's pretty ballsy, or maybe you've got somethin' in mind already for it." He matched her grin with a tilt of his head and brow raised in silent question.

[codedvixen]

"Maybe I do." It was just a little verbal game of cat and mouse, but it was more fun at the moment than continuing to watch - and hear - some of the gratuitous fornication going on around them.

[reddirtydeeds]

"Do I get to hear the secret?" But then he held up a hand. "Wait let me guess." A hand on his chin as he looked over from head to toe, a wide grin still on his lips.

"Leather cuffs, enough lining too keep them chaffing. Hmmm behind the back, bent over and played with or cuffs over your head and legs up?"

[codedvixen]

"Nope," she shook her head, still rolling the bead between her fingers. "Bondage isn't really a 'getting to know you' kind of activity." While she didn't mind it occasionally, she certainly wasn't going to let someone she didn't know in a place like this tie her up.

[goodoldfashionedvillain]

[ He's been observing her for a time.

He wouldn't necessarily call it stalking. Following, more like, slowly prowling after her, keeping out of sight for the time being, able to slip into the groups of people crowded around booths and the array of other activities at their disposal. Jim on the other hand had his beads hidden - slipped into his pocket for use only if he desired, he rather preferred to be the one to approach than be the one approached. He got a bit ...nasty with the last one that had come up to him, intruded his personal space with no warnings. That was his instinct, he supposed, trying to keep things controlled, in as much of an uncontrolled environment as this.

The woman is interesting. He's not certain as to why - maybe it's the fact that she seems to advertise the most ambiguous beads, those black little trinkets catching his attention.

Even though he's been following her for some time, he attempts to make it look like an accident - coming up next to her at an exhibition of some sort of technology, brushing her shoulder accidentally with his own. ]

Sorry. [ He immediately murmurs out, his Irish drawl somewhat put on a bit heavier, hand coming up as he apologises. ] Didn't mean to, dear, I do apologise for that.

[codedvixen]

[She looks up at the touch, not in the slightest put out by it. Considering how many bodies slid past her and either copped a feel or tried to wrangle it so she copped a feel, it was hard to get her hackles up over such an innocuous touch. She can't help but smile at the drawl; so she has a weak spot for accents. Sue her.]

No harm, no foul. Not like my boobs are on my shoulders.

[Sky can't help but let her eyes flick over him in assessment, some silent thing she's been doing to almost everyone she's met. It's hard not to when she's been dumped in a city, given beads and an apartment and told to go for gold. With sex almost shoved in her face, it's next to impossible to let her mind not think about it. Even when she's looking at some pretty impressive toys.]

[goodoldfashionedvillain]

[ A smile, a chuckle, and he doesn't move, still staying a bit closer to her. His shoulder's still touching hers as he looks, surveys the technology in front of him. Jim doesn't quite move back, but he doesn't move forward, either - staying just a distance back enough that he barely touches her when he tries to take a closer look. ]

I suppose you're right. There's been worse here, hasn't there? [ He meets her eyes and then directs his glance towards the toys that are on display. There's a man showing them off, and a pretty young thing volunteering to be his test subject. They're flat, white things, small little monitors that Jim's seen in hospitals, the nodes being attached to her in various places. There's flirtation between the vendor and the volunteer as he places two on her nipples, one on her clit, and tells her to lean back for everyone to see. Jim swallows, looks up, watches as he turns the machine on the lowest setting, watching that slim girl's body jump and quiver with the pulses that attack her suddenly. ]

Well, that's interesting isn't it. [ His voice is low, barely above a whisper, not quite directed to the woman in front of him. ]

[codedvixen]

Worse, better, and all forms in between.

[She looks up when he does, watching the nodes get attached with more than a little curiosity. It's when the machine gets turned on and she can see the effect it has on the volunteer that she feels a shiver go over her. Her skin prickles in response and she can almost feel the current running over her instead. Well, hello there.]

Um... you could say that. [Her own voice is a little tight, her pupils dilated in response to the thought of just how much fun that little trinket could be. God, she wonders if she has enough credits to get one. Hell, she wonders if she can make one. Or ten.]

[goodoldfashionedvillain]

I can imagine. [ He's close to her, because this is interesting. He's watching the girl writhe and thrash, and it's obvious that without the man even touching her she's coming undone all over the place, her body twitching. They're showing off the different options, the vendor fiddling with the controls and showing off a probe, something large and metallic that he slips into her cunt all the way to the hilt. Her body is just getting over the trembling, her muscles still clenching and unclenching with the electric current, and Jim watches as her hair is slightly standing on end. ]

God, that's brilliant, isn't it. [ He's just barely touching her back, the small of her back as he leans over her to get a better look as the man waits for her to drop down against the platform again, then turns the electricity on just to send her through a ripping orgasm again, going so far as to make the young girl ejaculate in a messy, wet display. Jim's licking his lips, staring, and thinking, calculating. ]

Doubt I could afford it, but wouldn't that be exciting?

[codedvixen]

[Her breathing's coming faster, and she's focused on the view before her and the parts of her that are touching the stranger beside her. And the parts of him that are touching her. Another shiver goes through her, and she mimics him in licking her lips, feeling an empathetic ripple go through her from the girl's gyrations. Goddamn, she wants that thing.]

I want it.

[It takes her a moment to realize she spoke out loud, but she won't deny what she said. Her eyes flick over to the man beside her, then back to the display.]

How much is it?

[goodoldfashionedvillain]

[ He approached it a bit closer, spoke to the vendor, and glanced back at the woman with a little unfortunate frown. A pity, he would have loved to buy it - would have it delivered and have this woman in front of him on him in a second, have her strapped down and watch her writhe like the volunteer, her body trembling and bucking against the electric current. He frowned when he was given the price, and for a moment she'd be able to see his brows furrow as he attempted to haggle it down, and returned to her side. ]

Too much. Unfortunately. I'd need at least fifty more at this rate. [ He needed a job - the idea of it made his nose curl in distaste. ]

That's a shame, I would've loved to use it on you. [ His eyes trailed back to the woman, and he gave her a smile. ]

[codedvixen]

[Perhaps it was the chip in her head, or maybe it was just watching all the enjoyment going on around her, but the thought of this stranger doing that to her had a pulse throbbing between her legs.]

Fifty? Well... I have that.

[What was she offering, really? To share? God, she wanted this thing with an intensity she hadn't known for a while. All her other toys were broken or taken away from her. But this... this was right here. Almost within her reach.]

Think you want to come to a compromise?

[goodoldfashionedvillain]

Go in on it with me? [ He gave her a bit of a sleazy smile, and couldn't help but be rather taken by this girl. Good. So he would have the chance to take her down, put her in that machine, cause another human being to jerk like that woman - soaked between her legs, her skinny limbs slackened as she tried to regain control of her motor functions. He pulled her up to the vendor and bought it straight from him, so very pleased to have the tens unit in his hands, the large box and the bag full of goodies and attachments cradled in his other hand. ]

You can come and use it any time you want you know. [ A grin. ] Though I do insist on one thing. You'll come with me now and use it with me. What do you think...[ He drew out his words, and his eyes were at half tilt, set on her, watching her. ] Darling?

[codedvixen]

[It was crazy. Doing this was totally crazy. She didn't know this guy. He could be some kind of creepy serial killer. But looking at the smile he gave her and seeing the almost intent way he was looking at her, like he was picturing what he'd do to her, it had her complying easier than she thought she would.]

Right now, huh? I think I can manage that. And it's Skylar. Sky's fine. [She reached out to touch the machine, fingers tingling in anticipation of the charge she could almost taste.]

[goodoldfashionedvillain]

Sky? [ He allowed her to, and the problem of remembering where his flat was was soon fixed by seeing the familiar building, vaguely knowing just where he would be able to find it. He held the box up and watched her over his shoulder, smiling kindly. He couldn't help but imagine that small girl with her face contorted into a mixture of pain and pleasure, imagining that own look mirrored onto the woman following him. ]

I'm Jim. James, but I'd much prefer Jim. [ He made his way to the second apartment complex, still hosting the box over his shoulder, guiding her to his first floor flat and fumbling with the key he'd been issued. ]

[codedvixen]

[She followed along gamely, wondering what sorts of attachments the toy came with, and if the insertion rods came in differing sizes. There were things about this place she liked already, ones that hopefully she could adapt to and make up for the whole 'fritzing her toys' thing. Maybe.]

Well, Jim, it's nice to find a like-minded individual in this little place. [She was referring to the toys, of course. Not too many people she'd run into had had any sort of predilection for toys like this. It was nice that she'd run into someone who had. And one who could hopefully use it to its best advantage.]
