MINGLE 001: FOOD, FUN, FUCKING

Guests are 'gently encouraged' by enforcer robots to gather into what appears to be a central gathering place in the middle of the settlement area. Attendance is quite mandatory. Once everyone has gathered, holographic emitters kick on and display... static. Loudspeakers tell the captive audience to prepare for an important announcement, and moments later a proper but mechanical voice chimes in: Greetings, organisms! R̷e̶j̸o̴i̴c̷e̸, for the portents foresee a time of glorious providence! We have recorded your actions a̵n̸d̵ ̴o̸u̶r̵ ̵c̶a̵p̸a̷b̷i̴l̸i̷t̵i̶e̸s̶ ̴have upgraded accordingly! The fabricator general automata grant you a boon, and shall provide much glamorous f̷i̶x̴t̶u̶r̶e̴s̷ ̴to aid in your future acts. Frolic and make merrily, all! To honor your contributions and celebrate your arrival, you will be invited to attend our first sultry salacious soiree. Join your fellow chosen and f̵u̶l̵f̴i̵l̸l̵ ̵y̸o̷u̶r̷ ̷f̸u̴n̴c̷t̷i̶o̶n̶! And with that, the display ends and characters are allowed to go as they please. Upon returning, characters now find that dormant manufacturing robots have been reactivated, and will accept requests to build certain household fixtures, i.e., bedding, couches, loveseats. Because who wants to bang on a dusty cot, right? The quality will not be high. Imagine low-end IKEA. Build quality also varies dramatically and seems to depend on how old and corrupted the machine is. (As with all things in this world, quality is improved with intimate acts.) But what is this celebration you've been invited to? That much is simple as sin. It's a mechanically sponsored party. Of particular note to hungry newcomers will be a fully stocked banquet ample spirits and naturally, a dedicated area for an all-out orgy. It's a good old-fashioned party, Roman style! ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● These are no hospital rations. This is a full-fledged feast. It's no less dangerous, though. Naturally, the robots have seen fit to add a little bit "extra." Some offerings are entirely innocuous, while others have bevy of effects that you'll soon discover. You may find yourself only able to speak the truth, or maybe after one bite you find yourself instantly smitten with the next person you see. Some foods incite obedience, others rebellion. And some... well, you can't have an orgy without some good, old-fashioned aphrodisiac. The music has been modulated to change the way you think. Of course it's electro-synth, what else would robots play? Slower music induces sleep; maybe you fall into a cuddle-puddle with some of your fellow kidnappees. Faster music encourages you to dance. And some music? That's what upstairs is for. Speaking of upstairs, what's an orgy without the orgy? You may find yourself auspiciously able to fill your decadent A5 squares. In a large room that seems unusually renovated, as if the robots had given it special attention just for this day, a floor covered in pillows awaits the beast with two backs. No one is turned away, and those attending will get a notification from their devices that they have received... additional credits? What could this mean? ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● N A V I G A T I O N

1. Gremlin at the Buffet

[softheartedshizun]

[No! Fuck no! No no no no no no! Shit! Fuck! What the hell!?

Xue Yang might have grabbed him but Shen Qingqiu was fast enough to insert his fan between him and the other. Make out with that, have fun with it. Of course, it was also pressing against his own mouth, it made it seem like they were both kissing the fan for some reason.]

[noneforyou]

[ Don't mind if he does.

It takes Xue Yang a moment to realize he's not putting his lips against another person's, but even once he does, it doesn't make him stop. In fact, it only seems to make him more enthusiastic. Xue Yang deliberately meets Shen Qingqiu's gaze as he continues. He presses forwards, and then again, and then opens his mouth and gives a slow, deliberate lick along it. ]

[softheartedshizun]

[Shen Qingqiu's eyes widened at the display, his poor fan! How dare!

This fan that had been with him through thick and thin, forgotten and found again, dont violate it! Dont assault it! Not to mention the proximity was all too close to his own face, this was incredibly uncomfortable!

With a gasp he moved to pull away Bd push forward, though he didn't use his full streangth.]

This master requests that you stop molesting his fan.

[noneforyou]

[ Xue Yang pauses for a moment. When he speaks, the fan moves slightly, his mouth still pressed against it. ]

Then take it down so I can kiss you instead. You're too hot not to have my lips on your body.

[softheartedshizun]

[He almost screamed, instead he screamed inside his heart.]

This master is no such thing.

[Sure he had a pretty face, that was fair, it was more or less expected. Was there an ugly cultivator anywhere outside dramas with bad casting? Of course not! That was absurd to even think about! But this sort of overt harassment, it was too much. This was the sort of line bad fanfic authors put in their stories to try and get cliche OOC sex scenes between characters with no good chemistry.]

And would rather not get molested instead.

[noneforyou]

Yeah you are. You're really hot. Do you need a mirror?

[ He gives a tug at the front of Shen Qingqiu's robes, trying (though not very hard) to get them closer together. ]

If you don't want to get molested then say yes. Let me suck your cock or something.

[softheartedshizun]

[He felt his heart give away as blood dripped from the corner of his mouth. What was this? What was this harassment!? This was more overt and terrible than anything Binghe- even Bing-ge in the novel did!

But then, of course, Binghe would be smoother, even in his most contrived scenarios, one could not have such a protagonist be so base.]

How is that not molesting me!?

[noneforyou]

Because you're saying yes first. Isn't that how that works?

Or we could just fuck anyway. You're hot and I'm not picky about what we do.

[softheartedshizun]

[What... what was this!?]

What if the answer is just simply no...? At least offer dinner and a show.

[But even then it wasn't like he could be bought so cheaply!

[noneforyou]

[ Xue Yang stares at Shen Qingqiu for several seconds, the gears in his head visibly turning. Then suddenly he lets go.

In an instant he's whirled back to the table full of food, grabbed a new plate, and heaped it full of food that he's enjoyed up to this point that seems along the lines of the sort of things Xiao Xingchen likes. This guy probably has similar preferences to Xiao Xingchen. They even wear their hair in a similar style.

He turns back and holds out the plate, offering it to Shen Qingqiu. ]

For you.

[ Considering this is Xue Yang, it's impressively considerate. ]

[softheartedshizun]

[For a moment Shen Qingqiu sighs in relief as Xue Yang seems to have let him go. He lowers his fan, shaking and then wiping it as if to try and restore its honor. It isn't until Xue Yang returns with a food offering that he looks over and blinks.]

Huh?

[This felt like something out of a comedy sketch. Was he in a comedy sketch? Was that it? Was that what he was worth here?

Though, on impulse and reflex, he did reach out and take some. It did look good, and from earlier munching, he knew it was.

...

WHY WAS HE EATING MORE OF THE DRUGGED FOOD!?]

[noneforyou]

Is there anyone else you want, too? Or we can go sit down and I can give you a show.

[ Yes, he is taking the suggestion literally. ]

[softheartedshizun]

[This was quite strange, but the sudden willingness to do whatever he said was... comfortable. Deceptively comfortable.

Why not go along? It was easier.]

Why not show this master a show.

[What would it be? He looked like a cultivator... maybe a martial display?]

[noneforyou]

[ Xue Yang leads Shen Qingqiu to a couch on the side, one of the ones not currently otherwise occupied. (Luckily, he isn't thinking about bringing him upstairs to the orgy.) He sits him down, but then Xue Yang doesn't back up too far.

He's never done something like this himself before, but thanks to his varied experiences helping his friend extract Jin Guangshan from brothels, he's seen this sort of thing plenty of times. And Xue Yang is a good study. A coy smile plays across his lips as he starts to move in time with the music. After a few moments he starts to run his fingers along the edges of his robes: along his collar, dipping beneath the edge of his belt, and the like.

It's a good chance to notice his missing finger, if Shen Qingqiu isn't distracted for one reason or another otherwise. ]

[softheartedshizun]

[A missing finger, an excuse for a backstory, character development, easy identifier to find 'That Man!' he didn't pay much mind to it, otherwise he might instantly go 'traits of a villain!'

Instead, his focus was on the sudden pulling of clothing as if he were going to remove it.

Nope! No! This was stupid! This was embarrassing! Who could sit through this and not laugh?

He raised up his fan opening it to separate himself from the sight.]

Not that kind of show.

[noneforyou]

[ Xue Yang stops immediately and stares at Shen Qingqiu with a look that's almost offended. ]

Why not? I'm not a woman but I can keep my pants on. Just imagine I've got small tits.

[softheartedshizun]

[He felt the blood coming back up his throat.]

No! No... that....

That is a taste this master does not have, one kind is enough, no need for two....

[Not his cup of tea, futanari, and yes, that was where his mind went with that sort of comment. Forgive him, he has been on the internet too long.]

You look like a sword cultivator... why not... do something like that? Why seduce this humble master of no interest....

[Ignoring that he was called hot at least two times and that clearly the goal is to get into his pants.]

[noneforyou]

If you're of no interest I wouldn't be seducing you.

[ Obviously.

... ]

Do swords make you hot?

[ Because he can use a sword here if that will help things along. ]

[softheartedshizun]

[This felt like a dangerous question....]

No.

[Who knows how a sword would be used at this point and he didn't want to be surprised.]

And, you will be disappointed. The conquest isn't worth it.

[noneforyou]

Why? Are you less hot with your clothes off?

[ He moves back over to Shen Qingqiu and sits down in his lap on his knees, just barely far enough back to not upset his plate of food. ]

[softheartedshizun]

[He couldn't help but lean back, not that it really did anything.]

That is a subjective thing....

[How would he know? Why did it matter!?]

[noneforyou]

Then how can you tell me the conquest isn't worth it? Isn't that subjective too?

[ He leans in a little, not quite enough to match the leaning back but enough to make it clear what he's doing. ]

[softheartedshizun]

[This was unfair! Why the arguing? Since when was he some sort of hot commodity? He didn't even know this person!]

You are far too influenced by this place and its coercion. Your decisions are not clear, they are clouded by poison.

[noneforyou]

...

Maybe. But I'd fuck you anyway.

[ Is that true? Possibly not, but it feels true enough right now that he says it without a hint of shame. ]

[softheartedshizun]

And what if this master is not interested?

[Or was this one of those unhealthy starts because no one can figure out how to get the ball rolling because creativity is lacking?]
