"Blue Oyster Cult - Shooting Shark" (Watch on YouTube)

You awaken amidst the darkness with only a faint light to greet you. Your body is hemmed in by shards of crystals, gently sparkling and possibly pricking your skin. The surrounding landscape is dyed in the pinks and purples of the dusk filled with crystals protruding from the ground, some as large as a skyscraper. Even the few shy moon creatures you find in the wild have strange crystal growths on their hides. This is far from home— perhaps a dream? You pinch your skin and slap your cheeks, yet nothing seems to do the trick. Searching for answers yields nothing but an endless expanse of purple dust as far as the eye can see. You have four options: one, panic; two, soil yourself; three, admire it all then soil yourself; or four, go into survival mode. Eventually, you’ll realize that you’re not alone.

▶ Keep all Hands and Feet inside the Burning Vehicle at all Times
Iris Moon, Government Center (Arrival) and Outer Space | top

After a day or two of living off the crystal wilderness, a group of people find you worse for wear. They are the gallant Moon Knights from the planet of Prismatica. After the strange phenomenon during the past months when scientists observed the sudden appearance of rainbow crystals in the sky, the government has been feverishly combing through the moon for more Moonblessed to be rescued. You’ll eventually be brought into Iris’s moon government center.

You all may have your usual inquiries — Where are we? Who are you? What's going on? Why did I mix tequila with xanax last night? — and the Prismals are almost too eager to answer. They tell you about their world and about the first appearance of the Moonblessed as the medical staff give you an examination to make sure you’re not carrying any viruses or biological hazards. If you react violently, you may be restrained and nerfed with a specialized neurotransmitting gun that releases a numbing agent through the top of your spine. Once the examinations are over, you’re informed that you will be provided accommodations on their planet during your stay.

While waiting for transport to be prepared, you may freely roam around the government center. Eventually you’re called back from exploring, escorted to the docks, and led onto a large transport vessel that makes frequent trips back and forth between the moons and the planet. Faces onboard vary from both old and new Moonblessed as well as Prismal locals. The next destination: Prismatica.

A. After settling into the ship and selecting the current in-flight movie, Back Door Slugs 9, you and those around you may eventually feel a bit of turbulence during the movie’s highly anticipated climax. Did anyone notice it, or is everyone too focused on the hot characters?

At first, it’s a small jitter that’s easy to miss or brush off. But as the transport vessel travels on, the shaking progressively escalates to erratic tremors strong enough to cause severe nausea. A minute later, a voice over the speaker announces the ship will have to make an emergency landing, citing technical difficulties.

Sparks can be seen overhead as more ship parts malfunction. This is a good time to hold your neighbor’s hand, say your last goodbyes, and apologize for that horrible thing you did in the sixth grade. Grip your seat with the might of every god you can think of.

B. Another minute later, a follow-up announcement states that external entities have breached the transport vessel. Everyone is warned to be careful and watch out for each other. Small fires will have to be put out before they worsen with either magic or emergency equipment onboard such as extinguishers. In-flight robotic attendants will be scuttling around to perform immediate repairs.

Eventually, an entire power panel bursts, and prismatic jellyfish unnaturally spill out. The jellyfish will try to latch and suction onto any technological devices close by such as the television screens on the seats or communicators and will show preference to Iris Moonblessed over the rest. Be ready to help and pull numerous jellyfish off both the faces of Moonblessed and Prismals!

Planet Prismatica, Outer Lunatia | top

The emergency landing successfully completes and the transport vessel will safely land on top of a gorgeous lake filled with tiny glaciers floating by. When reached out and touched, you’ll find out that the “glaciers” are surprisingly cool crystals and not ice.

The ship will be left hovering idly on the water surface while passengers are ferried to solid ground using portable emergency boats. However, civilization is still a distance away.

A. You’ve probably heard of flying sharks from a veteran Moonblessed. But how about sea lions? These aquatic lions are born with scaly skin and gills outside of their crystallized manes. Unfortunately, they haven’t tasted fresh meat in quite some time. If there are any injured onboard or near your boat, the chances of the sea lions detecting people will be higher as they are drawn to the scent of blood. Growling hungrily, they will be quick to latch onto the boats, biting the edges, and trying to knock everyone overboard for dinner.

After surviving through so far, the Prismals guide everyone to a nearby encampment run by humanoid rabbits. They are tall, built, and have a habit of mentioning their virility an awkward amount of times. They are also generous and will share their game meat and fresh crops while allowing everyone to rest for the night at the only inn in their village.

B. There is no running water all the way out here, so if anyone wants a bath, they’ll have to do it traditionally. The village protects a natural spring, which is a good place to bathe away the sea water. Around the spring, the rabbit folk’s friends — little scintilla chinchillas — will shock away any predators that dare to approach their sanctuary! Be at ease and feel free to offer your friends shampoo massages.

The next day, the rabbits can be seen hacking away at some of the wilder-looking plants for an easier pathway. If you wake up early enough, you can ask some of them for a tour of the beautiful greenery. They mention that it’s thanks to the Moonblessed that their crops have been doing so well lately — the result of all the chroma influx. The rest of the journey to the city will be smooth sailing.

▶ It’s Free Real-Estate
Level 2, City of Lunatia | top

Welcome to Prismatica’s hub, Lunatia, the city of your dreams! A bustling metropolis lush with bright lights, vibrant colors, luxuriant plant life, and all the conveniences of technology absent from your own world… It seems like paradise to all the uninitiated. After a quick tour of the city, new arrivals can find themselves getting cozy in their new homes.

A. Find new roommates and say hello to your neighbors! City officials will give you directions to the designated districts across Level 2 and instruct you to pick out a unit. Each apartment complex has a different aesthetic, some may look cozy, some stylish, and some bizarre. The free accommodations have a basic living space that can only fit two or three people at most in one unit.

Starter Chromaspace furnishings are provided which can be controlled with the touch of a built-in panel. Examples are color-changing curtains, transforming sofa beds, cabinets turning into tables, etc. Customizing your apartment or moving out will have to wait until you earn more chroma. Until then, why don’t you check out your new neighborhood or explore the city levels? Maybe your new roommates or neighbors can give you a “hand” with allowance for dinner.

B. A new high-end boutique, Prissy Polyp, has opened in Level 2. As compensation for what happened, both Moonblessed and Prismals that were affected in yesterday’s flight will receive 50% off their total purchase. Those unaffected will receive 30% discount coupons as a promotional gift. All are encouraged to visit with their friends or special someone, try on some things together, ~~enjoy each other in the fitting rooms~~, and deal with the loud, ear-blistering background pop music.

Their clothing collections are characterized by bright iridescent designs, some features such as design patterns may glow ethereally in the dark. One of their signature dresses features a one piece (also available on their trench coats) that can amplify the appearance of one’s decolletage, gluteal muscles, and/or bulge with the press of a neon button. Another item among their collection is the maiden sweater: a sleek, backless sweater that shocks those who attempt unwanted touches. Others include skin-tight leggings (also available on their shorts or pants) which produce pleasant and relaxing vibrations on all lower extremities and fashionable polyp-shaped hats for all kinds of people. It’s a huge shop, you never know what else to find in there.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Oh? It seems to be that way, if you've been here that long and ride the edges of the skirt?

[Never unlacing his fingers those eyes stay locked onto the man before him.

It always in good fun to go at one another but there was always the potential for them to end up going a tad too far. The heat of the moment and all. That was another possible reason why they needed a certain hobo here to cool the tension. However, there was a lack of that person right now.]

That depends would Gentaro actually be able to give proof, that isn't a naughty lie?

( dice where the fuck are you to prevent this fling.

it's hard to tell if his leader is suggesting something scandalous or if he's trying to lead gentaro into it so he can poke fun at the fact that's where and what gentaro suggests. either way, it's still a dangerous game.

gentaro casually sets his glass of tea down, it clinking softly. )

Hypothetically speaking, it seems rather convenient that we're already in my residence. It would certainly lend plausibility to it.

[They need him on a leash, it was far too dangerous for him to be this far.

Who could tell? On one hand he could be suggesting they bang and he would collect a lot of the information he wanted...and on the other hand he could just want to poke more fun. It was a shot in the dark but which was it for Gentaro?

That mischievous smile on his lips he does feign a small degree of surprise.]

I wonder...does that mean that Gentaro wants to have some fun with his "muse"?

Edited 2019-09-17 02:52 (UTC)

( does he?

would it be easier, then. would it be easier to just mess around with his leader, get that out of his system, and then proceed normally. it's certainly normal here, and for all ramuda knows, he was lying about not moonlacing with everyone around him.

ramuda knows nothing about his personal life and he'd like to keep it that way.

he keeps his mouth hidden behind a long sleeve, green eyes sharp with something )

Get on your knees, then. I'll turn off the tea.

( ??????? is that a play? is that a rouse? he rises to his feet to go turn off the tea kettle, either way. )

[Either way Ramuda would really care too much. There wasn't going to be strings attached this if it happened and if not it would be a little of point proved. Since he doubts the other was doing a lot of sleeping around here...it was just a hunch but one he was going with.

That command though earns another chorus of giggles from the leader of Fling Posse.

Cute.

If Gentaro thought he was going to be doing any topping that was precious.

For now he can play along, he guesses, the worse that could happen is nothing or he gets another good laugh.]

The real question, are you actually going to do anything~?

[He poked at that bear once more as he moved to his knees.]

( truth be told, for how sassy and sharp gentaro can be, he's a god damn bottom at heart. or at least, one that's mouthy and instructional and likes to be serviced. given the right circumstance, of course, he could easily top, but he hasn't parsed through that in depth; he hasn't the need to.

he turns the kettle off and glances back over at ramuda.

of course the god damn gremlin is kneeling.

a twitch of his lips as he moves his sleeve away from his mouth, eyes squarely on his leader as he slowly walks back over. his hands lace behind his back and he lazily tips his head to the side. )

Isn't it you who would be doing something in this situation, Ramuda? Or are you unfamiliar with how this goes?

( he knows that isn't true, given that little walk-in he had with dice on ramuda before. )

[There was very little he could see in the ways of letting Gentaro, or anyone, top him. He wasn't into that no thanks. Instead he would be the one in charge and in control as the other person comes undone.

Even now there was the good humor behind it but the way he was kneeling was irritating.

That only increases as he watches the author's body language before he speaks.

If his teammate wants to play this game then he picked one hell of a game.]

Oh? I know how things go with this sort of thing... [A pause before he taps his chin.] It isn't usually me that's on my knees in front of someone. So why don't we try you in that position?

[The smile on his face twitches a little as he moves to stand and crosses the distance between the two of them. If he has any say it's going to be the other on his knees one way or another.]

( so that's how he's going to play it.

not like he expected any less from the spitfire, radical, former dirty dawg member. it'd be disappointing if he just shut up and got on his knees and did as he was told. it just lends more credence to gentaro's multiple theories about him.

his hand reaches out and smoothly, almost elegantly, he lifts the purple ends of ramuda's hair a fraction up into the air. inspecting it like a specimen. as if he's deciding if he's worthy enough for this. )

Perhaps. ( no commitment yet, his eyes guarded. ) Would this be your first time with a man? Are you sure your onee-sans wouldn't be jealous?

[Actions spoke louder than words after all. Although Hypnosis Mic might prove a little less to that truth.

Taking anything laying down wasn't his style not when you can just take what you wanted. Sure waiting was good for some matters but right now he wasn't just going to obey orders.

Close enough to nearly push the other man against the counter he kept his own hands behind his back. That smile remaining on his face as he watches him play with his hair.]

Does it really matter? Men or woman, it's just for fun...right?

Heh, cute how you think they would mind?

[Read: like he gives a shit?]

( of course ramuda doesn't give a shit. gentaro doubts that he gives a shit about much of anything.

that's still out to the jury.

what gentaro does know is that this is playing with fire and if he treads too close he's going to have to live the lie.

but maybe that's what he needs. this alternate, little fucked up reality. )

You would say that, yes. ( a hum and he drops his hair, hand lingering down on his leader's shoulder. )

A shame I'm not the type to just get on my knees.

[Really it was hard to see what he actually cares about in the scheme of things. Ramuda was like trying to catch smoke in so many matters.

The fire was already started, unfortunately for Gentaro, now it was just a matter of how long was it going to burn and how out of control would it get.

Not moving from his stop he bounces a little on his heels, a hand reaching to play with the front part of the other's jacket with a playful hum.]

Then maybe you're the type to lay on his back and take it?

If I didn't know better, it looks like you are a little curious about it?

[His hand grips his top a little as he pulls him closer.]

Or was I right before?

Edited 2019-09-17 03:33 (UTC)

( which part, he wants to ask.

gentaro eyes ramuda, tracking his every movement. he lets out a calm little sigh, hand reaching out to curl around the man’s wrist, lightly removing it from his own clothing.

but he doesn’t let it go. )

It was a lie earlier.

( which part, who knows. that’s part of the fun.

he keeps ramuda’s hand raised in the air between them. )

Then what are we doing out here still, Leader?

[He could ask...but how much of an answer would he get.

Ready to ease up if he needed to, he released his clothes never breaking eye contact with his teammate.

That hold on his wrist was a curious thing for him.

A chuckle at the admission of a lie only spurs the pink haired leader on.]

Guess the bedroom would be a better choice for this sort of thing.

[He looked to his wrist in Gentaro's hand until he leans back.]

So do you want to move there?

For someone so experienced, you’re doing an awful lot of stalling.

( if they go to the bedroom, there’s little chance this will end without part of his pride and clothes in tact.

if they go to the bedroom, it’ll be his leader that will tear down the physical walls around him. funny, how he never quite pictured that happening.

a twist of his lips and a frank sigh. ) I hope you’re familiar with how to undo traditional clothing. It can be rather tricky.

Stalling? Well it's good to make sure you aren't going to run away, right?

[Yet another playful jab at Gentaro. Though if he wanted him to not stall all he had to do was ask.

Rotating his wrist he grabs onto the other man's as he gives him a tug and attempts to walk towards the bedroom. A laugh escaping.]

Really~? You think I don't know how to get clothes off of someone when I put them on people for a livin~?

Your designs stray far from the traditional.

( but theresa twist and stir of an honest smile. this banter is at least a bit more organic.

that, and it feels like ramuda is guiding him somewhere like normal. that he isn’t about to discover that fling posse’s phantom is a virgin by choice and has been blowing a lot of hot air.

he doesn’t stop following ramuda, though.

the touch feels admittedly warm, nice, and so what if he’s touch starved. )

I don’t have neighbors, as a side point.

Doesn't mean I don't have experience in them. It would be a shame not to study the traditional stuff.

[The conversation was a tad more lighthearted. Really there were few people he could go back and forth with like Gentaro.

That aside he was still leading the man to the bedroom. Even if he is about to make one hell of a discovery he was wondering if the other man will call uncle.]

Do you plan on being loud enough that they would be bothered if they were there?

[A playful tone. It was some information he will hold onto. So the apartment next door might be free after all. That would be great if it was.

Nearly skipping to the bedroom door he opens it and pulls the author inside. Once inside he shuts it and looks around the room.]

( for how absurd their relationship is, gentaro finds it a comfort in this mess of a world. even if he knows so little about the true intentions of this gremlin, he can’t quite say that’s a turn-off.

and it’s not like he hasn’t had people visit before. it’s not like people haven’t seen his bedroom back home, either.

so the closing of his door doesn’t bother him. just another bet, another upping of the ante. )

I was suggesting that, yes. ( his voice pitches a bit higher, feminine, and he bats his eyelashes. ) After all, I’m entrusting my first time to you. Please make it wonderful for the both of us.

( the great part of doing fake voices is you can tell the truth and not rouse suspicion. )

[The challenge was always welcome and Ramuda looked forward to it in a way with Gentaro.

The bedroom was very like the author, it didn't seem flashy or at least not more of Ramuda's style for his own place.

That new voice change was something and he felt like he suddenly has a maiden. A little weird.

Not about to back off he pushes the author towards the bed.]

Then we should make sure you never forget this.

[There was a drop to his tone of voice as he leans in. He wasn't going to stop and lose this match...nope.]

( he won’t forget this no matter the outcome.

playing with fire, having the least likely person teach him something he’s otherwise too proud to admit he’s lacking in. god, he needs a pen, he needs to bottle this all up and use it as inspiration for later.

gentaro laughs, airy, allowing the back of his knees to hit the bed. he doesn’t fall yet, doesn’t sit down or drop. instead, he lets a cold hand reach out and curl under his leader’s chin. )

You’re not actually going to do it. ( wow is he really trying to call him out right now???? )

[This was what happened when they were left to go at it too long.

Fire was taking over too much and the switch was close to being flipped for Ramuda. To a point he could stop if Gentaro calls this all off. He will take it as a win. That line was being toed though and his ability to not stop was there.

Then that flip is thrown with that challenge. He didn't think Gentaro would say that and the way he takes his chin. He wasn't going to stop now.]

Really?

[Tone close to his normal voice but not quite there. He grabs the man's face and presses lips to his. Gentaro pushed a little too hard.]

( appar-e-fucking-ly.

gentaro goes stiff, the kiss catching him off guard. he’s not so much of a masochist to never have allowed someone to kiss him before — it helps to have a pretty face and a nice line of romance novellas.

kissing isn’t his favorite, none of this ever seemed to be, but perhaps because it had all been painfully scripted before this.

this is dangerous, unprecedented, meaningless.

he almost likes it that way. )

Brat. ( is what he calls him, voice edging on something real as he clutches down at ramuda’s shoulder, grip tight, and presses his mouth hard back against his. )

[Don't poke the gremlin.

That surprise behind his lips earns an internal chuckle. So the author really thought he wouldn't do something like this? He was in for a lot of surprises now.

Kissing wasn't bad, most women like it, and he could get into it but it was more of a means to an end. Still he wanted to see what Gentaro had.

He doubts the man never kissed anyone here.

The comment earns a cocky hum before he pushes back, tongue already licking the seam of his lips. All the while his hands move from his face to grab his waist, urging him back a little more to the bed until gravity does the job for him.]

( frankly, the tongue part of kissing isn’t his favorite. it feels a bit odd, unnatural. but he doesn’t ever push it, rail against it.

the realization that he may actually sleep with his leader, a man he knows nothing about, is equal parts thrilling as it is absurd.

if he’s doing down on this ship, so is ramuda, because this is a shared shame.

he tangles a hand up into ramuda’s hair, aiming to make it hurt, lips parting if only because he wants what naturally comes next. )

[The tongue was where the fun could be for the leader. At least it could lead to some interesting faces on people.

This was going down and there seemed to be little to stop it now. They would have something they didn't really needed to tell Dice in the long run.

Hands in his hair he dug his nails into the other man's sides when the yank came and they went tumbling to the bed. There was a grunt from Ramuda as he pushed himself between Gentaro's legs.]

Didn't take you for a hair puller, Gentaro?

[Hands moved from his hips to start to undo his hakama, if he can get that gone then he he can open the rest with ease.]
