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.

[ Says a man currently wearing a dark brown blazer, with matching brown slacks, yellow collared shirt with a red tie hanging down. Classy and loud is the goal with the get-up. ]
Here, let me help out: what are three favorite colors of yours?
no subject
[ faerghus is the land of fun and glory. he does note how the other man is dressed, but then dimitri counts that as something like alliance attire. that's where this man would be if he allowed himself to be colour-coordinated the way fodlan is. ]
There's no reason not to pick clothes that will fit a variety of occasions - and yes, funerals included. [ can't be offended if you aready feel deaaaaaaaaaaaaad ]
no subject
Not sure if funerals would be hosted in Hell though. [ Which they are in, supposedly. But ok, blue, not the most exciting color but he'll work with it. He starts rolling through the clothing wrack he was perusing for his own use and finds a pair of blue jeans. ] Ok, this is a good start. Jeans go with everything as a base.
no subject
It seems rather ... informal.
[ a lot of the youth (nevermind the fact that he is The Youth) don't seem to wear it in a way that fits them well: they either wear it too tightly or too loose. and with this one, the fit seems like the royal treasury of fhirdiad is gonna be completely visible and open to the public if he wears it. ]
no subject
If your idea of formal is dressing up like you're going into a business meeting every day, then sure jeans aren't what you want. *But* outside of that? Jeans are basic, kid. You won't be starting the next fashion revolution in them, but they are comfortable.
no subject
... but I will try them on at your insistence.
[ since he does seem to genuinely want to help him, though he's stubborn enough to recognize that he would also not be the type of person to wear jeans.
quietly, he tries the jeans in the dressing room along with a shirt he'd chosen. dimitri comes out to present his handiwork: jeans. a dress shirt buttoned all the way to his throat, long-sleeved, tucked-in. there's no room for a belt but mark his words, he would've worn one if he could. wingtips on his shoes, polished black. the pants are. snug. ]
I don't believe I will defer to your judgment for this being 'basic'. [ a big sigh. he's too jacked for this. the treasury and the armoury of fhirdiad is looking mighty plentiful. it looks like it's going to be able to withstand five years of war and then some. it's kind of making him self-conscious. he's always worn armour and uniform for most his life, and this is very much for entertainment for entertainment's sake. 'basics', as he'd said. sothis had blessed him too much. ] I also want to note that I look no different from how other people look.
no subject
This is a good start! See, you got style. [ The button-up seems a little tight, but it also goes with just about anything. He looks over to another rack, where a collection of simple jackets are waiting to be plucked from the coat hangers. ] Next, I think you should try out a jacket. And I do mean *jacket*, not a coat. Aim for casual.
no subject
[ neither has he been raised to be casual at all though he allows certain things to be relaxed around him. though he's onto something: dimitri transforms into someone more of his age with how he's wearing clothes more appropriate for him, very much those round cheeks of his doing him in. it's got people looking over, though he doesn't really care for that much. ]
no subject
[ INLAND EMPIRE - You're getting a "sheltered" feeling, but not in terms of the space he has occupied. He doesn't know how to be his age. ]
...It wouldn't hurt to try out though? Youth is fleeting, fading out fast. You won't be a teenager forever and then. Then your life is over.
no subject
I understand what you mean, but people like me should be careful regarding such things; youth and the fragility of life are merely the hallmarks of time spent in this world.
Where a man is freed of duties and responsibilities that he shoulders from birth, there is an obligation to remember in service of what was left behind, and a duty to return. Aside from what the faction expects of me here, this is all that I am concerned with.
... though I do not wish for you to take my words as an insult, or indifference to your concern. [ dimitri looks away, his jaw the stubborn cut of steel he was made of, forged from the way being a prince has sanded what remained of the child that he was from birth. ] All I am saying is that life is past me.
no subject
What exactly *are* you?
no subject
I'm not particularly sure how to answer that ... if you mean my class, well. I am part of the nobility in the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus, where I hail from.
no subject
1. Dios Mio - *cross your fingers* - A SPAWN FROM THE SWAMPS.
2. Wait, no, I can be normal about this! Come on, he's a kid.
RHETORIC - Bullshit you can. His parents are probably cousins and his urine is blue. Say the fucking line, you coward.
VOLITION - Ok, let's cool it down here. You don't need to say the line. Be normal. ]
Cool! Cool, cool. You're nobility? Wow! That's wild. I mean, the monarchy was toppled by communists where I'm from. Did your parents ever do cocaine, kid? Actually, don't answer that, it *doesn't* matter. Cocaine is okay.
no subject
[ this is familiar, at least. dimitri has been schooled in etiquette and politics, he knows how to hold himself in court and in public. this, well. he feels a lot more as his arena. dimitri settles onto it like a scrumptious layer of cheese on gautier gratin. ]
That the monarchy can't hold on is unfortunate, but no rule is ever eternal. I hope that may provide comfort to yourself.
As for my parents, they are dead. [ he says it gently, but firmly. ] I was young when I lost them. My mother died during the plague. My stepmother ... and my father ... were both murdered when I was younger. I remain the only survivor and heir of my immediate family.
[ how to talk about duscur without talking about duscur. certainly not in a place where it matters, where people won't understand what it means to him. the ghosts stir in his mind, restless, angry. like poking a hive with a stick, there is an incessant buzzing at the back of his head that reminds him of their existence. i know, he thinks to himself like offering a prayer. i understand your fury. but this is not the space nor time. and this place is inhospitable to history, my history. ours. ]
no subject
LOGIC - I'm going to assure you here: he does not have cocaine on him because he is nobility. There's no way this teenager has touched, or sniffed, any illicit substance in his life.
EMPATHY - Please, show kindness. The death of both parents at a tender age is hard no matter class. ]
Shit... no, I'm sorry. [ Clarity suddenly hits, a sobering force in the face of his bumbling, and he rubs his face trying to cling to it. ] You don't have to apologize. I have holes in my brain, I don't know what I'm saying sometimes. Let me go back.
[ There is no going back though. He said what he said. Compose yourself, get your shit together, don't fucking be *insane* toward a teenager. ]
My *point*, as I was trying to say earlier, is that you don't need to be contained to your titles here. There's no shame in being your age while you're still at the proper age to be it. Don't lose your youth or be hasty to discard it.
no subject
That being said, I will endeavour to try my best to act my age here, since I am far removed from my responsibilities. You are correct in that regard. There is no harm in trying.
Although I do have a question. [ just out of curiousity. dimitri is tall enough to look at him with his baby blues. ] What is cocaine? Why did you ask me about it?
no subject
It's a stimulant, also known as 'speed'. Gives you a boost, sharpens the senses. The monarchy where I'm from *loved* using it. It gave them visions and aided their work, or so I've been told.
[ He believes that much. Cocaine is absolutely wild and not always in the best way. ]
no subject
[ maybe sylvain knows? it seems like something his friend would know, but also, that's reason enough for him not to know precisely because it was the kind of knowledge that sylvain would know. hm. ]
As for visions and the like ... I'm not familiar of substances that can cause them, though I'm sure they exist. Such things are relegated to the purview of the church and mages who dabble in it.
[ visions! substances that can cause visions! dimitri thinks about how often he was haunted and wants to laugh, though he keeps an enameled look on his face that is much practiced. a much more cynical side of him snarls at the luxury of it, but that boar remains under lock and key. visions! ]
