TDM 001!!

[ SEE GAME NAVIGATION TO READ UP ON HECK GAME BEFORE PLAYING IF YOU SO DESIRE ]

A) MAY I OFFER U PIE IN THIS TRYING TIME(GARDEN LEVEL)
[OOPS YOU DIED. WELCOME TO THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL. If you're new here, have a sheep cherub or imp slap a "HI MY NAME IS--" sticker on you, and frantically explain "DON'T WORRY, WE'RE WORKING ON IT, WE'LL HAVE YOU OUT HERE....AT...SOME POINT..." Wack. Also, you may noticed that your body may or may not have changed. What's up with that??? Who cares, at least you have as spiffy new cell phone! You're also told you're free to take the elevators up to Heaven or down to Hell. Good luck!

In the mean time--join the garden party that's going on! Or at least, it seems like a party?? Except all they are serving is pie. Apple pie. Blueberry pie. The classics. For you more Carnivorous types, there's stuff like mince pie, and...the name is smudged, but maybe don't eat that one unless you're a cannibal.

But along with a variety of normal pies, if you accidentally eat a weird pie, your character might experience the following:
Vinegar Pie - It's tasty but suddenly you're compelled to blurt out an Insult or ruthlessly tease the next person you see.
"Sweet" Potato - If you're a normally grumpy or aggro character, this pie will suddenly make you want to be more affectionate! This can be anything from wanting to hold hands or saying genuine nice things.
Humble Pie - Suddenly you feel complimenting or praising others and might downplay your own achievements, or insult yourself.

You can probably shake off the effects, but hey. Free pie!! ]



B) LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE (HELL LEVEL)
[TIME TO EXPLORE. Today in the Hell Level, the Hotel (Ho-hell? Helll-tel? Okay just Hotel) it's time for spring cleaning! Wait, didn't they just have that? An Imp says yes, but this is a different type of cleaning. Time to TAKE OUT THE TRASH!!!!

Which is to say, out of no where you might receive a PUNCH in the face by a local, or an imp! If the latter it's like being bapped by a sick little lamb. Still, even if a local punches you, you suddenly heal immediately? That's right, TODAY ONLY, this is a 'get into a scrap injury free' spring holiday, and you can rough house as much as you want with each other today in the Hotel, and NO DAMAGE will remain! Ever wanted to get cut in half and suddenly stitch back together? WELL TODAY'S YOUR LUCKY DAY.

If you're not into PG rated guro however, why don't you try exploring:
-The clubs! The nightlife in hell is FANTASTIC and genuinely fun!
-Games! Along with casinos galore, there are also normal arcades! Any game you can imagine, it exists.
-Or explore parts of Hell's Hotel that don't involve getting into a dogpile! ]



C) MARCH COMES IN LIKE....(HEAVEN LEVEL)
[TODAY IN HEAVEN THOUGH, there are advertisements for the ZOO!! A zoo in heaven?? Fuck yea!! But when you get there you see nothing but...........lions. And lambs. Just, everywhere. They aren't fighting though, but being super cute and soft and have tiny wings. You can pet them and pick them up--well the lambs at least. The lion might crush you. But you're dead anyway so give it a shot champ!!

Local angels explain that every 'spring' the zoo does this, and it's a sign of good fortune! You might wonder why you need good fortune in Heaven, but fuck it, when it Rome!! If you stick around long enough the zoo will change back to 'normal' and you can find other animals to gawk at.

If zoos aren't your thing though, check out heaven's:
-BEACH!! How is there an ocean and sandy white beach in the sky! Who cares, it's heaven! Beach episode time!
-Coffee shops! There are no coffee shops in hell! LIVE YOUR COFFEE AU DREAMS.
-Or just explore the Heavenly hotel in general!]


D) WILDCARD

I mean, no shit. Sinners don't fucking die unless an angel kills you, right? No wonder you types are usually so fucked in the head.

[All because he lives and works in Pride doesn't mean that he doesn't think Sinners are a special kind of fucked up sometimes. More than some other parts of Hell anyway.

Blitzø picks up his cards and fans them out with a practised air. Growing up in the circus he'd learned a few slight of hand tricks for theft showmanship thanks to dear old dad, not that he tends to use them so much now.]


Four of a kind.

Break in the place before Velvette finds out I've already given you the tour...?

[ There's a low chuckle punctuating that soft purr as he slid that hand juuust a bit lower for a quick assgrab before starting to lead Vox along away from the carnage. ]

We've got some help... [ small hand gesture ]

Not as good as the bitches we've got back home but they're.... eh. Good enough.

[She chuckles a little bit. Ah, so he's not a fan of other media, huh? Understandable - the internet can be (and is, if she can be entirely honest), a lot.]

It is pretty interesting on the technical side of things, but I do agree - it can be a little much if you're not used to where to begin. But, y'know, there's also a form of, ehh...not quite radio, but audio programs online that lots of people nowadays do. You might find that interesting, if Emporio-kun hasn't already told you about them.

[She smiles, nodding a little.] Mmhm, you got it right. Sorry, I'm so used to giving out my last name first - and of course you can count me in!! It'll be fun having a new radio station to tune into all the time. Oh, and I'll tell my friend about it, too! I know she'd listen in.

[ Oh, he hears the crowd. It's definitely justifying what he's been saying so he feels safe enough - for the moment, at least. ]

I meant what I said, your highness.

[ He's clicking the safety back on Moneyshot before stuffing him in his coat. ]

We've done just fine without you. Save your protection for someone who actually needs it, no?

It's more like it's the other way around, in a way. You wouldn't expect a sinner all ♠♣♣♥in' hopped up on LSD and H8 to survive an extermination... but yes, that event happenin' every single year can be stressful to a lot of people.

[As for Husk's cards? He doesn't do any fancy flourishes or whatever. This isn't a competition to prove who can do the fancier tricks or whatever. With his left hand, he simply flips over the cards to reveal them.]

Straight flush.

[Husk is ready if that gun gets pointed toward him.]
grumpface: (Um)

[personal profile] grumpface 2024-03-31 09:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[Husk freezes and blinks a couple times.]

...Y-... Yeah, Angel already told me Valentino can't count three bills for shit. Why you bein' so helpful...?

[Whatever happened to "behind every demon is a lost cause"?]

[personal profile] nestingdevil 2024-04-01 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
[It's more simple when someone understands and even better when he doesn't have to explain it. Avarice is wanting at its core: a kind of craving that's sick, feverish, and no amount of anything can ever truly satisfy. It's what he is and all he'll ever be. The very definition of his namesake made flesh and bone with hands to grab and claws to scratch until the whole world gives, gives, gives.]

[And she, well. She knows just how to pull the strings, doesn't she?]

[Greed catches the hint of her fang as the lights wash over them, his eyes chasing her lips like fine print. Blinding, that's what she is. Even against everything going on around them (the bodies pressing and nudging as they forget themselves, the glitter unwinding in fades of smoke), she's got his full attention. The Sin reaches one of his hands out in front of her, the soft side of his claw trailing up her throat to gently trace out her chin.]

[No, this. This is so much easier.]

[He feels the pressure on his tail and returns it; his pace deliberately slow. Twist by twist, he goes - his whole demeanor more similar to a reptile waiting out the last, dying breaths. The Sin tries to lift her chin with his finger and as she coaxes him closer, he dips his head in; his mouth, his teeth, hanging like a whisper.]


Like I said, I'll let you be the judge of that, sweetheart. [He talks against her lips with a voice that's a different kind of sweet. A rich, baritone purr churns in his gullet, making the forks of his tongue flutter inside his cheek. Because they are two predators, aren't they? Two predators familiar with the song, comfortable with the dance, and oh, oh, oh, if they won't just eat each other alive.]

[Greed playfully tries to nip at her lower lip as his back presses up against hers, finally closing the gap between them.]
Everything, remember? I want to see everything - [He pulls back for a second when the music takes another turn and his sunglasses slip down the bridge of his nose, finally exposing his eyes to all that she's promised. They shrink and expand; snap and still. His desire, his want, his need, open and raw.]

[Another song picks up where the last one faded out, and the Sin draws his nails down the front of her thighs.]

[She should hate him. Shouldn't he deserve to be attacked? She knew how cruel he was. What'd he done to her dear friends, who she loved more than anything... and yet... even as she looked back at Valentino's twisted face with his sadistic grin, words come back to her.]

[ "There's no question to be posed;
He's unholy: case closed.
Did you forget? That hell is forever?
" ]

[personal profile] princess_of_hell 2024-04-01 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
[But, he clearly wasn't ready. Whatever seeds of a conscience Valentino may have weren't ready to be nurtured.

...And she had to send the message she wasn't going to take his shit.]


No one cared if I was the princess in our Hell, either, Valentino, and I didn't let that stop me from doing everything in my power to protect them. --I'm not here to fight you, but if you're going to be so casually cruel and sadistic right in front of my face, I will take it personally.

[She turns to the demons who were gawking.]

And, what are you all doing? Don't you have a sense of self-preservation!? Run!

[Deciding that even with healing injuries it'd probably suck to be shot, the demons took flight away from the immediate area.]

...

Good talk?
princess_of_hell: (A great pitcher we haven't got)

[personal profile] princess_of_hell 2024-04-01 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
Well, in that case... you can cheer me on as I'm raising money! --Though, when you said 'get your hands dirty'...

But nobody sees me coming!

[ Just ask Adam and Valentino. Without being invited, she crawls up on the seat next to Bulma, her little feet swaying idly in the air. Resting her chin atop her hands, she tilts her head and looks her over for a moment. It's almost like she's trying to commit something about her to memory. ]

You weren't scared though; do you deal with a lot of bad boys? I do.

[ Unnerving grin is GO. ]

[ She fails to see the threat in that, as she would win a feather and pain. Better luck next time, kitty. ]

That's because I found the nest in the wall.

[ Oh, she absolutely can't, as far as she's concerned that was a blatant display of genuine enthusiasm coming from him. Her chest swells with pride and she's just about to tell him how she stabbed through the wall in her room to get to the nest when he brings up the bar. ]

Okay! The old one doesn't smile like you do.

[ .. Husk doesn't smile, Niff. ]

Does Alastor know you're here yet?

[personal profile] orkin 2024-04-01 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
[ OH NOES SHE IS BLASTING OFF AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT.

Is she cackling all the while? She is definitely cackling and is surely running to drop all the details about her gift to Vox to Alastor sooner rather than later.

ALASTOR 2024, TV MAN!]

[ The fact that Seras keeps composure is impressive, she has already been backhanded off of someone's shoulder here and it delighted her, so she might be a tad disappointed. Just a smidge.

The knife that she produces from her apron probably won't help her case much. ]


Why not? Bad boys need to be taught a lesson!

[ Niffty meets her gaze for a moment, her eye squinting a bit as if she's actually thinking about it before she shrugs. ] 'kay! He can go! But if he does it again, I can fix him!

[ As if on perfect cue, she swivels her eye back in his direction. Her pupil dilates and her smile becomes downright terrifying. ] Run, bad boy! Or else!
orkin: 📍 made by <lj user=orkin> (pic#17001960)

[personal profile] orkin 2024-04-01 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! Sure, I can do that!

[ What she's getting out of this: stab the people you want to if you think it's okay, Niffty! This has been a great life lesson, Charlie, no one explains things as thoroughly as you. ]

Then he ripped it off and threw it at me! It had fluff and wing stuff on it. [ Time for the smile, the one where she's obviously done something wicked and no one has reprimanded her for it. Well, almost no one. ]

It's in my shadow box with all the other fluff. [ She beams up at her proudly. ]
orkin: 📍 made by <lj user=orkin> (Default)

[personal profile] orkin 2024-04-01 06:06 am (UTC)(link)
I always do!

[ Really, what kind of minion would she be if she didn't learn a thing or two from him? Always chew your food, even when it tries to bite back. She clasps both hands around the card as if she were just given another precious jewel, only this time she tucks it carefully into her apron for safe keeping.

That bad boy is going in her shadow box! ]


Right, I won't get lost! [ She might actually, at least for a little while, but she'll find her way there. Shifting the stack of flyers to one arm, she salutes with her free hand. ]

And I'll make sure everyone gets one!
princess_of_hell: (That's the moment I woke up)

[personal profile] princess_of_hell 2024-04-01 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
[BABY. STEPS.]

...I see... You'll have to show it off sometime!

[Well, Niffty is still here and not in a thousand different bits, so it worked out! ...Maybe. Perhaps belatedly, she picks up Niffty from her shoulder and kneels to set her down.]

Hey, Niffty, what if I told you I was going to work toward opening another hotel here? Do you have a lot going on?

[Yes, Charlie was really about to offer Niffty a chance to get her 'old job' back.]
grumpface: (So done)

[personal profile] grumpface 2024-04-01 06:23 am (UTC)(link)
[In exchange for losing the privilege of being carried by Husk in the future.]

I don't smile.

[In what world does Niff see Husk- Actually, Husk isn't even going to finish that thought. Because it's Niffty he's talking to.]

Yeah, I met him earlier. Told me some very ♠♣♥♦in' interestin' information. Nothin' you need to be concerned about.

[And certainly nothing about any Bad Boys.]

[personal profile] helluvamess 2024-04-01 10:39 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, most sinners I deal with are just fucked up extermination or no extermination.

[He figures it has more to do with the dying and being in Hell and suddenly wanting to do all the shit they'd said no to in life because they were fucking stupid, but to each their own.

At the sight of the cards, Blitzø grins wider, raising an eyebrow.]


Pretty fucking ballsy move there. I could ventilate your skull right now.
grumpface: (Smug)

[personal profile] grumpface 2024-04-01 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, you could try.

[Husk will just go right ahead and use his free hand to start sweeping the chips in the pot to his spot. Are you gonna try, imp? Are you?]
respectless: (enjoying this)

[personal profile] respectless 2024-04-02 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
Brilliant. I'll wear a cute little black dress. Let's make sure we get you a new shark or two, first.

[Might as well ensure they have a convenient way to dispose of the body, after all. Besides, she knows Vox likes to look at them swimming about.]

We can always take on a few on-camera roles until we have suitable staff to take over. Gets our names and faces out there more. You'd make quite the dashing news anchorman, you know.

[It's not something they'd want to do for the long run...but since Alastor will be hosting his own radio show, she sees it as somewhat necessary to make themselves famous quickly.]

Angel's still in hell. The only one from the hotel crew that wound up in heaven is their bartender, Husk.
respectless: (direct)

[personal profile] respectless 2024-04-02 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
Yes.

[Simple, and to the point.]

Also keep in mind, Princess or not, you are still one person. Give the people who want your help your full attention rather than running yourself ragged over people who don't want to listen to you.

[It's a level of altruism Velvette can't relate to at all.]

You can't help anyone if you neglect your own well being too much.
princess_of_hell: (on that little boat to heaven)

[personal profile] princess_of_hell 2024-04-02 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
... I never thought it'd be easy.

[She was still resisting the lesson, as practical and probably more effective it'd actually be. Though, the direction of the conversation certainly was surprising Charlie.]

Um... don't take this the wrong way, but you're really that Velvette? It's just... you're so nice. It's hard to imagine you being comfortable working with Vox or Valentino. I've had a bit of a... history... with both.

[She finally put her metaphorical finger on what it was that was standing out while talking to her.]

Do you... believe redemption is possible, like I do? Are you hoping my hotel will succeed?
deerlisteners: (we've a deal to make)

[personal profile] deerlisteners 2024-04-02 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
Are you certain? Your sense of direction is.... [he hums... but he just lets that thought trail off] You know, I can no longer just bring you to me, either. My deals are all voided. Your soul is your own again. [.... has she even noticed???]
