July 2022 IC Mingle
MAIN NAVIGATION
1. ITADAKIMASU!
After the harrowing incidents involving the curse last month, unity is the theme for welcoming the new influx of Lost Souls. The factions are still busy with cleanup efforts and making sure their personnel are in fighting shape. What’s more, most of the usual spots that would play host to the factions’ parties are either closed until they’re repaired, or in no state to be hosting parties that big.
Thus, an agreement has been reached. All of the factions will hold their mingles together and host a food truck/yatai festival in the blocks surrounding Theater Square, in the Sutoku Alliance’s territory. This gets money into the hands of the local vendors, and allows the community to spend time together in relative peace. It’s still Jigokucho, there are punks prowling to start fights and steal wallets, like they always are, but it’s a breath of fresh air after everything that’s been happening lately. Just keep your wits about you and enjoy the food. Takoyaki is one of the most popular items and competition between the carts motivates chefs to make them flair and style!
Kushiten, yakitori, dango, croquettes, senbei, onigiri, yakisoba, taiyaki, you name it, it’s probably represented here in some form. There are even any number of your favorite treats from home, even if your home isn’t Earth. It might take a little poking around to find them, but isn’t that part of the delight of exploring a city’s food?
The falling Stardust has made its way into the food as well. You may notice that some vendors are grinding up the glowing stellar fragments and putting them into the food itself as a spice. Are… you supposed to eat that?! Oh well! When it’s time to party, you can’t go wrong with a little Stardust.
2. MUSIC GOT ME FEELIN SO FREE
In the center of Theater Square, surrounded on all sides by the many colorful food stalls, they’ve set up a stage for local artists to perform on. There are a great variety of acts who come and go to play a few songs. The music reaches all throughout the square and may be little more than background noise, until just the right tune catches your ear.
- Jenny – This all-girls story of hidden love should be hitting all the ladies in the crowd a certain kind of way. Have you been admiring a friend or coworker and just never taken the plunge? Now’s the time for that kiss, the music is playing.
- KONNANじゃないっ – This sweet idol bop about striding bravely towards your best future fills you with inspiration and hope for the future. You may feel compelled to bring your hopes and dreams into every conversation. The future is bright!
- Running Up That Hill – As the singer performs some kind of interpretive dance, she sings about her frustrations with never truly being able to see from another person’s perspective. What would you do to show your true self? Maybe it’s time to iron out that ongoing misunderstanding you’ve been circling.
- Love Warriors – A simple act with a guitarist and singer, she sings a mellow piece about the true value of love. What a beautiful message. Your heart might begin to overflow with feelings of care and affection. Will you finally spill those all-important three words? I-love-you.
- One More Time – The last act of the evening is lively, colored lights flashing out across the square. They begin to play an impossibly catchy beat that no one can resist dancing too. Dance like no one is watching and enjoy the sweet catharsis of a good dance session. You’ll feel better for it tomorrow.
(Players are more than welcome to use their own song and effect. 💖)
3. BIRD BOMBS
At some point during the festivities, the Daitengu takes the stage. They’re in exceptionally high spirits. They give a shout-out to Toraguma and Tenkohime for helping to make this happen. As usual, The Enma is not present. However, the Daitengu forgoes any snide remarks, although they do seem a bit let down. Hope springs eternal, one supposes.
Next they would like to announce that they have even more reasons to celebrate: a truce has been declared between the Shuten and Tamamo clans. The war for the Underground is over (for now) and new construction has started on a new casino and adult entertainment complex in the once-contested territory. They hope that this will lead to an ongoing era of financial cooperation between the three factions.
They thank Sakamoto Ryouma for making all of this happen and give him a shoutout in the crowd. Word has spread all over the Alliance about their deeds, and what they managed to pull off; a blessing and a curse. It becomes obvious that not every tribe within the Sutoku Alliance was okay with putting the Alliance itself up as collateral to make this happen. The Kasasagi Tengu Tribe, in particular, has decided to let their protest be known by storming the party in a flood of aggressive magpies. They vulture the food, they pick at jewelry, they’re an absolute menace.
Good luck shooing them away. The vibes are counting on you to deal with these feathered buzzkills.

no subject
Only he seemed to not like it? Cain's stardust addled brain was not capable of very complex reasoning and the fact that Fukuda kept hesitating was probably bad.]
Ah, you don't believe me, do you? I don't like telling lies, so please believe me...I don't think I could bear it if a dear friend of mine actually hated me.
[He's leaning his head against Fukuda's chest.]
no subject
Well, as he thinks about it, running a hand through Cain's head as it's pressed against him, he knows why Cain's got such an odd opinion, doesn't he? He doesn't know. No, as far as he knows, Fukuda is just a man who's suffered an unfortunate accident. If Cain knew. If he knew... He really thinks about it, for a moment. He almost tells him the truth. Even if it made Cain hate him, he could probably eventually come to terms with that. But then Cain might warn others. Fukuda might go back to being all alone again.]
I don't. I could never hate you, Cain. If you knew what I really was, you'd probably hate me. That's why I'm worried.
[More hair stroking, maybe letting his hand idly trail down to stroke the side of Cain's face.]
But I really like you. I'll do whatever you tell me. Whatever you want. Alright?
no subject
He didn't know if he'd regret this later, but it's not the ideal way he'd like.]
I can never hold a grudge for very long. Owen...he stole my eye and put his in its place. I don't get him, and I don't know how to feel, but I don't hate him.
You go out of your way to make others comfortable. Don't think that's the type of guy I can hate.
[And besides, Cain by virtue of being born was already seen as a monster. It was with this and so many feelings jumbled up inside of him that couldn't quite process what he wanted either.]
Don't know what I'm doing either, but....
[Without caring if he's making sense or not, he's back to nibbling along the man's jaw and trying to slide his fingers into the fabric of his clothes.]
no subject
Anyway, given that, Fukuda isn't going to stop Cain's questing hands, but... Well, it's that instinct to stop Cain, but also, a small, more unpleasant part of him wants to test these words. After all, things are so easy to say. Actually following through on them is another. He doesn't trust human beings to be good at heart. He's seen too much of them not being so. And if there is real goodness, for it to be given to someone like him... No, no, it just doesn't make sense.
He breathes out heavily as Cain's fingers brush against skin unused to foreign hands, but;]
I killed people, Cain. I drilled a hole into their head like mine.
[If this confession isn't jarring enough, how about how Fukuda's hand rises to cup the side of Cain's head, his thumb pressing against the younger man's temple, where a hole could be.]
no subject
But Cain's been on the recieving end of human cruelty, and somehow the confession didn't even make him pause at first. The finger on his temple did make him stop though, the small pressure cluing Cain in on the meaning of the words.]
Is that why you're so afraid? That I'll figure out you're a murderer? Ah, that does make sense...
[This really wasn't the time for him to have any sort of complex thoughts on the matter. The stardust is filling him with giddiness and an urge to celebrate, and he didn't want to focus on that. Was Fukuda trying to make Cain hate him.
It was rather sudden, but he let out a laugh.]
I bore witness to an entire city my teacher annihilated in the space of a single day. I can't fathom it...I can't think about how you could possibly be a terrible person either. You wouldn't hurt someone for no reason, right?
[His hands keep burying themselves inside Fukuda's shirt, the thing gradually becoming unbuttoned as he leaned in.]
I can't hate people. I don't have it in me. I want to believe in everyone, so please stay here with me.
no subject
It's not that Cain doesn't understand. He sees why Fukuda would worry about this. He is just used to murderers, apparently. Well, that's fine. Fukuda will take what he can get. Cain still likes him even with this. He intuitively knows that Fukuda had a good reason for what he did. But then it's the last thing he says that really grips Fukuda's heart. He understands that feeling, not wanting to be left alone, behind.
So he pulls Cain in closer, tighter, shifting to help Cain get him out of his shirt, his own hands clumsily moving to set upon Cain's in turn. There's no hesitation now.]
no subject
At least, once it was open enough for him to be able to reach, Cain ran his fingers along the man's skin, uncaring of any blemishes he might come across. Leaning down, he took one of Fukuda's nipples in his mouth, gently teasing it with his tongue. From the way he's pressed up, Fukuda would be able to tell he was hard, but right now he seemed content on just giving the other man all his attention.]
no subject
In any case, Fukuda's reactions are muted, but come easily, as if he's particularly sensitive to any touch. Which of course, he is due to how rare it is for him. He allows Cain to tease him for a bit, but soon enough, he's trying to tug Cain back up, and when he's able, his hands are moving down to Cain's belt.]
Cain, I want to make you feet good, too. Can I?
no subject
You don't have to ask. I'm the one who came onto you, right?
[So he was more than happy to let the taller man do what he wanted, and thankfully the belt he was wearing was already loosened from his attempts at ripping his shirt off.]
no subject
[Consent is key, after all. But that's all he needed to prompt him to drop to his knees and finish getting Cain out of his pants.]
I half thought I was imagining it, but you really are already hard, Cain.
[Half teasing, half excited. All this for him? He really is lucky. Anyway, he may not have a lot of experience, but he's seen plenty of Internet Videos, and he opts to start slow, since someone has to keep this from lasting five seconds. He focuses on the tip, giving the shaft a few exploratory licks. Hopefully Cain was expecting this and not just a handjob.]
no subject
He was certainly hard as Fukuda could see, and had been pretty much ever since he started pressing up on the taller man. Now that his erection was free, he almost could breathe a sigh of relief-only to give a suprised laugh when he felt Fukuda's tongue.]
Oh, that-that almost tickles.
no subject
Ah, in a good way, right?
[... Wait.]
Cain... you've done this before, haven't you?
[SURELY SOMEONE AS HANDSOME AND KIND AS CAIN HAS HAD HIS DICK SUCKED???]
no subject
And he's too high right now to think more coherently, instead just giving Fukuda a confused look. Why did he stop?]
It feels nice, I just didn't know...? Was I supposed to?
[Was that a requirement??? Somewhere in his single brain cell the logical thought was 'no' but this was an unprecendented situation.]
Oh, I suppose you were expecting me to have experience with things, huh?
no subject
[He's just surprised is all!! He gives Cain's hip a reassuring pat pat pat.]
Just tell me if you want to stop, right?
[And with that he's going to resume his Very Important Work of sucking Cain off.]
