March 2022 IC Mingle



MAIN NAVIGATION
1. WELCOMING COMMITTEE
cw: optional aphro in Tamamo Clan prompt
The influx of Lost Souls means the factions need to have a little welcoming party of sorts. The leaders of each faction each send a message to their new recruits, telling them to meet at their respective headquarters.
The Shuten Clan directs their new recruits to the Arena. There’s plenty of food and booze to go along with the exhibition matches from the toughest fighters they’ve got. Enjoy the view or get involved in an arena fight, if you’re feeling spicy. If bloodsport isn’t your cup of tea, there’s a number of gambling games to partake in, too – don’t worry, your money isn’t at stake here, unless you want it to be.
The Tamamo Clan recruits are sent to the brothel Mizukume. Hosts of all sorts are there to fill your every need. If you’re not one to be doted on, there’s also exotic dancers in every state of undress for you to look at. You may be tasked with being a host or a dancer yourself. If you’re not in the mood for that, there’s plenty of food from Tamamo-controlled restaurants to eat and seemingly endless drinks. The drinks may or may not have a little something extra in them, so check the labels carefully.
The Sutoku Alliance meets at the nightclub Konoha. It’s truly a celebration with an enormous amount of fast food from every joint in their district and an equal amount of cheap drinks. Sing your heart out with live band karaoke – don’t worry about them not knowing your song, they seem to have a depth of knowledge beyond this world. Once that settles down, there’s plenty of dancing to do or you can be a wallflower, whatever suits your mood.
The Department of the Enma meets at a meeting room on the top floor of Kaigo no Bou. The room is uncomfortably opulent and wouldn’t be out of place in a Heian imperial court. Fine silk tapestries cover the walls, richly lacquered wood is inlaid with gold, and it all feels like it was decorated by someone with more money than taste. There’s fine food and even finer drink available. Various multi-armed youkai play in a jazz band, playing their instruments in a much more complicated manner than strictly necessary. Stretch your legs and dance. Take a peek out the window for a bird’s eye view of the city. If the interior is too stuffy for you, escape to the roof for some fresh air – just be careful not to fall off.
2. PARTY TIME
CW: optional aphro
After everyone’s had their fill of food, drink, and entertainment: the party isn’t over. They’re told to make their way to Konoha with the instruction to show their faction’s pride. That’s a careful way to tell them to raise hell. Upon arrival, all recruits are provided with an advance on their pay by The Enma. Food is provided by the Shuten Clan, a variety of all sorts of meaty foods. Drinks are provided by the Tamamo Clan, but be wary because some may have that special Tamamo kick to them (read: aphro). It’s technically a neutral meeting place, but there’s almost certain to be a fight sooner or later. Entertain yourself, meet the other factions, and raise some Hell.

[ dimitri's a big guy. he's getting dragged by the bnnuy down into the road. he's not really making it easier, but his feet are moving. belatedly - ]
Are you paying for the clothes?
[ because he's saving his money, and half of that goes to his Cheese Fund, so. ]
no subject
( HUFF!!
anyway she's dragging him along with her again, which seems to be the norm for them by now, laughing out loud when he speaks again — )
Whaaa? Me? Pay for you?! You're insane. Pay for yourself, idiot! Looking like this, you're just gonna get robbed and bullied, anyway. I'm doing you a favor here, so you should pay me, too. ( nobody cares abt your white people cheese dimitri eat something good like fish )
no subject
[ he? he sigh.
as for her services, dimitri just shakes his head. look the only help he's interested in is cheese. fromage. ]
I'll try out clothes for you, but I won't buy them. I have to be careful with money.
[ this is so hard, it was much easier when he didn't have to be worried about such things, but now dimitri has such respect for people who can manage their money. he thinks about ashe, who's done it all his life managing without, and wonders if he can be just as good. being a prince ... hard. ]
no subject
( she's literally bullying him as we speak????
ALSO PLEASE STOP EATING ONLY CHEESE YOU'RE SICK )
You will buy them when you see how good you look in them!! ( or so she claims. satisfaction not guaranteed.
at the very least, she knows better than him to manage her money... frugal spending has been something she was taught the hard way; after a life of being pampered as a lord's blade, having to suddenly cut expenses was a pretty hard blow. still... she enters the first store that looks appealing, and shoves him towards the dressing rooms. )
Wait there! I'll bring you some clothes to try. ( and off she goes, to trust her cat instincts and pick him out something truly fashionable! except... she gets very distracted by how shiny some of these clothes are... and ends up proudly bringing him a golden jacket made from sequins, glittery green pants and an obnoxiously pink shirt. she hands them to him with a very proud smile, though. ) Here you go! Put it on. I dunno your size so I just guessed... but it should be fine!
no subject
[ CHEESE IS PART OF A BALANCED DIET.
they go to a store. this is a lot fancier than the ones he's been into so far, and while dimitri knew and have seen the fact that they exist around, he hasn't gone into them because he had no reason to. furthermore, he doesn't really think there's anything wrong with the clothes he's obtained ....
.... obviously not the perspective of the bnnuy. dimitri tries to be nice, and looks through the clothes they have. he finds the most interesting thing he wants: a polo shirt. super fucking normal.
bnnuy comes back with the most garish colours he's ever seen in his life, including golden sequins and glitter. pink shirt? who is he, lorenz??????????????
his face seems to be stuck in an expression of deep frowning. finally, he says, ]
I must decline.
no subject
( she's literally older than you you little runt!!! and she's a cat!!!
a cat who seems surprised and offended by his sudden rejection. )
Huh? You said you'll try what I give you, so try it! Is breaking promises something you do often?! ( so rude... not gentlemanly or chivalrous at all... her ears droop, in very honest sadness... whine... )
no subject
That being said, this really doesn't fit me. I'm afraid I must decline your offer.
[ dimitri points to a mannequin across the store. the mannequin has a well-tailored suit on. it's obviously way out of his budget. but it shows what nia already knows about dimitri: that he favours tailored clothes, well-made suits, and ones that make him look like a distinguished gentleman of 80 years instead of 17 and being bullied by a bnnuy. ]
That style is more appealing to me.
no subject
( she huffs, holding the clothes up to him, still. look... she knows that his taste is 'old man chic' but that's exactly why they need to switch it up?
wrinkling her nose, her gaze follows his to the suit — she then turns her head away from it with a pout, as if the suit had slighted her, somehow. )
Clearly, you can't be trusted with these kinds of decisions. That suit is boring! At least try the jacket, it'll go with your hair!! ( shoves it into his hands... shove... shove... slowly shoving him back into the dressing room... dw about it )
no subject
[ he's being shoved into the room against his will. it's funny because dimitri can crush a man's skull in his hands and yet here he is. he thinks that he perhaps has to accept the fact that he's being bullied. it's like fighting with annette if annette didn't care about the fact that he was a prince.
he wears the gold sequined jacket. he comes out with gold sequined jacket. ]
Nia. I look like the treasury. [ he's unhappy with it! ]
no subject
she's seen what he can do, when angered — it remains a constant in her mind, when interacting with him, and... at the same time, she has to wonder whether it was the same dimitri who's letting her push him around like it's something he can't stop. maybe it's him... maybe it's the mental illness... either way, the two just don't seem to quite match up.
she's only further convinced of this when he puts the jacket on and comes out, all sparkly and gold. gold is a good color. )
Uwah! So shiny! ( can you tell she's amazed? wide eyes and all. ) You're totally right... you look like a treasure! So cool! Oh, we can discard these... clearly, the jacket needs to be a centerpiece. Can't have anything flashy distracting from it.
( she throws the obnoxious clothes away and looks at him thoughtfully. )
Maybe... a white shirt and black pants to go with it? What do you think?
no subject
Yes. I'm fine with that.
[ maybe it's the mental illness!!!!!! in any case dimitri does have to agree, unfortunately, that if the jacket was made to be the centrepiece then he doesn't look too bad at all, so he patiently just waits for nia to sort things out as he sits down in the waiting room. he is handsome with it. the gold brings out the blue of his eyes. but he also looks so strange to himself, having worn the dark blues and greys of fhirdiad all his short life. if he ever wondered what he'd look like in alliance colours, well. he need not look beyond this experience. ]
no subject
to be fair, she genuinely thinks it works on him. he's made to wear flashier clothes — nia supposes it might be the noble blood, but the way he carries himself doesn't always remind her of a noble, but rather a sullen animal... which isn't particularly flattering. is it a confidence issue? probably the mental illness again, if she had to guess — )
Here. ( she returns after a moment, with a plain white t-shirt and skinny black pants. ) And stop sulking! It'll look better that way.
no subject
I know you won't listen to me either way, but this is sort of embarrassing.
[ a deep sigh. well, maybe he can wear it to another one of those meet and greets they have which is a bit less formal? or when they set another party in one of tamamo's many clubs? he doesn't know how to make room for this in his wardrobe. the white shirt has a cute print on it. because dimitri is a sucker, he wears them for her and comes out looking more like his age. how unfortunate. ]
no subject
well, not really. she just can't get over the fact that he hides his body in clothes that don't really fit him. hug that frame a little and he's going to be the talk of the town? duh. )
Don't care! ( she announces, just in case he forgets, as he enters the stall and changes. what comes out is basically a totally different person? she gasps, as if surprised, covering her mouth with her hands.
... it's not that dramatic of a change, but good lord. )
Who are you and what did you do with grandpa?!
no subject
[ he sighs as he looks at the mirror. his hair is rather ... well, commonplace and boring given the kind of hairstyles that people are sporting around here. but he likes it enough. he pushes his bangs to the side and they stubbornly fall in front of his face anyway.
there are uses for good appearances; nia has helped him. he sighs, and makes a decision. ]
I will buy this for you, and wear it occasionally. I suppose we can make a date out of it so it matters.
[ anyway he leaves her with that lovely thought as he goes back to the dressing room to change. ]
no subject
( he wishes he didn't look as bad as she was suggesting. it doesn't matter now, though, she guesses, because he's being a good boy and listening to her — and though she has about as much knowledge about modern fashion as he does, at the very least she picks out something more form-fitting so he doesn't look like he's wearing an old potato sack.
at any rate, she has won, and is therefore a pleased cat. )
Heehee, that sounds fa — h... hey! A date?! ( startled by the suggestion, she watches him leave to change, a little stunned — since when did he learn how to tease people? insane.
huffing in embarrassment, she slips out of the dressing room and glances around for something that'd maybe fit her. hmm... something that'd be easy to move in freely... )
no subject
Nia. Where are you staying? Did you find a place to live in?
[ out of curiousity, in case he needs to raid it or something. ]
no subject
Hmm? Oh... I did find my place, but I'm rarely there. ( she muses, arms crossed behind her head. ) I've been spending most of my time at other people's places, actually...
( invading them, in other words... )
Why? You need somewhere to crash?
no subject
[ it's nice that she's spending time with other people as well, he can totally imagine her doing that regularly, and it's ... kind of cute tbh ]
I am still learning how to cook well, but if you want, you may also come and visit me anytime you wish. I will do my best to cook something nice for you.
[ he'll treat you right bnuuygirl ]
no subject
You cook? You didn't even wanna try the hard pasta from the other day! ( he must not be very adventurous with it, she decides.
but, well. food is food. )
I guess I can give it a try, though... since you asked nicely! ( ugh, she's so merciful and nice to him. ) What can you make?
