TDM 005: Ch-ch-changes!
A, Garden Level - Autumn Celebrations!
[It may be November in the real world but when you're dead time is fake! So this week/month GARDENFEST is happening...........aka a bootleg mishmash of Oktoberfest and an Xmas Market. In general: PARTY TIME.
Drinks! Foods! Bad singing!! Drunkenly built gingerbread houses! You're thrown in a festive identity clash of imps and cherubs in the garden playing music that doesn't match or shoving drinks at you. Don't worry, if you don't want a mug of beer, it might just be gingerale! Anyway sorry you died but PARTY PARTY JOIN US JOIN US--]
B, Hell Level: ICE to meet you!
[Down at the HellRaiser hotel, the hellish amenities await your every need, but spooky season is over. Aside from the usual, er, allure of Hell, it also seems to be slowly freezing over. Ruh roh. It's not much now, but occasionally you may be hit by a teeny tiny icicle as you explore, awww. Other times it's a whole fucking STALACTITE crashes down on you. Better dodge or hope someone pushes you out the way!! Look out for slick sidewalks too!
Otherwise, hey have some fun in Hell!! Go to a club, get some drugs, go to a casino, win and get mugged!! Ever have a drink made out of literal MAGMA? Go on, try it!! Slaps hell's cobbled brimstone you can fit so much chaos down here!]
C, Heaven Level: Spice, spice, baby.
[Heaven-side, the cherubs are ready to welcome you and give you the VIP treatment!! Massages! Manipedis! Lavish outfits and attention! You can raise your hand and just get a fucking cat sat on your lap! Truly, this is bliss!!
Oh, but it's also cozy season in Heaven! So along with the best fits for the chillier weather, There are an assortment of beverages being offered by angels for you to sample (CW Mind Manipulation):
Apple Spiced Latte- Tasty and earthy! But you suddenly feel more subservient.
Cranberry Spiced Latte- A bit tart but it works. This might make you sassier than usual.
Stuffing Spiced Latte- There is no effect. Why would you drink this you monster.
For the TDM you can find small cherub-run kiosks with these drinks on any level you prefer! If that's not your cuppa joe, feel free to explore the beauty of Heaven per usual! The beach! Boardwalk! All the cafes!! Whatever heaven should have, you can likely find it.]

>> ACTION....
already omw tho u dont have to tell me twice (✧∀✧)/
[And sure enough he sure is already going to the elevator! Heaven's forced a pile of nice clothes on him, sadly (??), so he's not really feeling himself. Between that, the flamey hair, the ash-black fur-feathers...well, he sure doesn't look himself.
But, toward the elevator he goes, sun-disk halo spinning happily behind his head. His duel disk is already on his arm!]
no subject
Why would this dreck come fully equipped, whereas Kaiba himself had been deprived of the technology he put his blood, sweat and tears into?!
Oh, his scales are flashing too. He's definitely pissy.
When the doors part, Jounouchi will catch sight of a pissy looking Blue-Eyes glaring down at him.]
Hm.
What are you supposed to be, a burnt chicken? Mheh heh!
[That's not very nice.
Kaiba's not very nice though.]
no subject
Second- damn he really didn't come with a disk. That's rough buddy.
Third-] Nhy- Wait, S-
[There's a brief. Blink. A pause as he cuts himself off, beak snapping with a click. His eyes could almost have glazed over, but it's too little a moment for that to be the case. ...Right?
He refocuses.] S-Seriously, it's you? Y' went with DragonMaster??
[He has...a Basic understanding that people might be from Not Actually His World by now, thank god, because it occurs to him that Kaiba's voice is not quite the same as the one he knows.
And frankly, he can't really go off the physical differences from there, so he's just playing this whole thing by ear. He's got a hunch, though.
This is not a Kaiba he Knows.] And eh, hell 'f I know, feel kinda like someone tried t' turn me int' Red Eyes and got d'stracted by Ra halfway 'r smth, I dunno. Fuckin' weird man, all my scars are full'a gold...
[Ahem. Anyway.] But that ain't important! Duelin'!
[He beams.] Let's get to it, this'll be great! Just th' thing to get over this bullshit, right?
[PLEASE DON'T BE AN ASS. HE'S BEGGING.]
no subject
And what of it? Far more original than "redeyes", and it's not untrue.
[He raises an imperceptible eyebrow at the rest of Jounouchi's answer, as it pertains to Kaiba's levied insult. Scars? Scars from what?
No, you know what? He doesn't care.
Dueling.]
I don't know why I'm giving you the time of day--maybe you're right, and it's a distraction from all of this. Still, you must enjoy being crushed into the dirt if you're not reconsidering.
But then, who am I to deny a guaranteed victory?
[Challenge failed. Kaiba is an ass.
He turns on his heel--no literally he's in some pretty high heels, what's up with that?--and with a flip of his coat, he's leading the way to their place of battle. Keep up, loser!]
no subject
Yeah sure, but y' might as well go with th' blue eyes then anyway right? Ain't like y' got all the dragons!
[He waves a hand while laughing about that, apparently uncaring that his own name might be 'unoriginal'. Coming from an era of rampant forum chatter, he's just glad he didn't have to add 3 digits of numerals.
He also doesn't seem too insulted by the rest of Kaiba's words- his grin failing to fade even slightly.]
Hehehe, save that for when th' duel ends! If it was abou' winnin' at times like this, I'd never play Yugi at all!
[Damn but those are some heels. Part of him can't help stare, that's impressive.
Being stuck with clawed digitigrade, he doesn't get any boots- he just gets to run and try to keep up.]
So, what kinda set up we workin' with huh? Can't just be any old table if we gotta go back down.
no subject
[Because it is his game. He might not have made it, but indisputably, it was a pillar of Kaiba's personality, to be great at this game--the best, aside from...
Hmph. Of course Jounouchi would remind him of such an unpleasant memory, tied in his failure that got him here.
His tail definitely isn't lashing back and forth in annoyance. Nope.
He ignores the urge to slam his tail back on the ground in aggravation, and instead allows the instinctual curl of his lip upward, baring his teeth as he moves to a table centered in the lobby of the hotel, cleared of all objects. Yeah, he did that. And he catches a seat in the small sofa to one side, expecting Jounouchi to occupy the seat across him.]
Go on then. Let's get started.
[Don't mind him, he's just covetously glaring at Jou's Duel Disk without yet pulling his own deck out. If only he could take it, in order to replicate it with what parts he has...]
no subject
[It is astoundingly hard for him to not say names here. He's not letting himself, because he doesn't trust himself not to slip on anything, but man. It's hard.
Fixing Kaiba with a rather dry frown as they walk though, he huffs.] Alrigh' though, your choice t' act like someone pissed in yer cereal...
[But enough of the poor mood, it's duel time. Jonouchi stretches his arms and wings out behind him as he goes to sit across from the other, folding the latter of things back close as he takes the duel disk off- and the winter coat. He hardly needs that while he's down here after all.]
Sure thing..!
[The deck comes out of his pocket first, and as he prepares to pass it over for shuffling, he pauses.
Kaiba is not very subtle.]
....Y'know, uh...if it means y' get more of th' things built faster, you can just...borrow mine...
...don't need t' burn a hole in it with your eyes...
no subject
Why?
[He's never been kind to Jounouchi, hardly enough to warrant such generosity. So why would he offer his Duel Disk to Kaiba for nothing, assuming that the other would give it back at all?
Kaiba wouldn't keep it, but he could, and as far as Jounouchi knows, he's a petty bastard.
So, why?]
no subject
[Does he need another reason? Does he?]
I mean most of my duels until las' summer were cards and a table anyway, so it ain't a huge loss. Plus, 's like you said, if no one else has a duel disk, I can't really use mine anyway.
[Somehow, this Jonouchi does not think Kaiba is a petty bastard. How odd.]
1/2
...He's just going to stare at the other, brows drawn, frowning deeply. He's trying to figure you out, sir.
Something about this isn't right, and he's not liking it.]
2/2
[There. Nailed it.
...but he still doesn't like this.]
i should roll to see how hard it actually is to beat jou this one time ngl,
Heh! Well then what're we waitin' for, lets get th's duel goin'! I'll make sure that disk ends up more than worth it!
[He's got his deck ready, if Kaiba's all set! Once things are shuffled, he'll set his deck down all ready to draw for duel start.]
