Fight Club | cw: violence, mind control
[For those who venture down to the see the underground fights, they might find a peculiar scene waiting for them. Standing in the arena and awaiting his opponent is Shell. But for those who know him, there's really no questions that he's not exact;y the fighting type. What's he doing there? Well...]

A. VS (Previous CR only please!)
[...it looks like he's your opponent today. He doesn't look very intimidating, not particularly dressed down beyond having taken off his jacket and scarf, and he doesn't seem to be holding a weapon of any kind. But something you might notice is that a good chunk of the crowd seems to be stepping back. You probably haven't seen what he can do yet -- but even the refferee looks a little standoffish, climbing up over the barricade to stand atop it, out of reach. But as for Shell-- well, he didn't expect to see anyone he knew here.]

...what are you doing here?

B. Domination (OTA)
[...it looks like his battle is about to start. If you're smart, and you've chosen to follow the crowd in sitting in one of the higher seats, then you'll only see the "battle" play out. Shell enters, and just as his opponent starts getting into stance to fight, he suddenly freezes and collapses to his knees. As Shell steps closer, the man starts to scream, pleading for it to "stop" -- whatever it is. Eventually, Shell leans down and whispers something to him, and he starts screaming for the refferee that he gives up.]

[But if you were curious enough to stay as close to the ring as possible, then you'll get to experience what those sitting in the higher seats can only watch: a strong sense of fear and dread seemingly emanates off the battle arena, causing those sitting closest to experience effects similar to the man in the ring. Some start crying, others scream, but most of them only stand and stare in petrified silence. Even the refferee seems affected for a few moments, taking far too long to end the match and give Shell the win.]

[And the moment he does, the heavy atmosphere disappears as suddenly as it appeared. But as Shell heads off stage to wait for his next match, for some reason, he doesn't look very happy about it.]


[ooc: Feel free to alter prompts as you see fit! Let me know in Prompt A whether your character will be effected by Shell's pheromones, as they have a 25% chance of failing entirely. Please note that if you choose to have your character sit too close in Prompt B, they will be affected as well. If you'd like to avoid that, have them sit further back!]

Comments

[steponme]

...I really, really didn't mean for that to happen.

[HE CAN STILL HEAR IT at least he can probably just claim his reward up front instead of waiting out in the ring. Will they even have more matches tonight with that going on?? Probably not.]

But thanks for not kicking me any harder. I think I would have been the I've giving up in that case, if I could have even gotten the words out... you're really strong.

[thetaintedsorrow]

Uh huh.

[Don't mind Chuuya, he’s just being a grouch right now.]

Don’t thank me. It would’ve been hard enough to send you flying at full strength.

[Ah, at least his arousal isn’t quite as bad anymore.]

What was with that reaction, anyway? It looked like you enjoyed being kicked.

[steponme]

--what?

[SHIT WAS HE THAT OBVIOUS]

Of-- Of course not! It really hurt! I know you said you weren't going to hold back, but I sill didn't think you'd actually try to hurt me... I was just surprised.

[Not that he looks upset about it at all. He used his pheromones, so it was only fair, really.]

[thetaintedsorrow]

[Chuuya calls bullshit.]

Of course I was gonna fight back. Even if it didn’t work.

[Now that Chuuya has had a chance to calm down he turns to face Shell, crossing his arms with a huff.]

You owe me a drink.

[steponme]

I think that's the least I can do... [Especially since he just won like 500 silver??]

[But with Chuuya facing him again, his eyes do end up traveling downward just... to check.]

...but are you sure you don't need a cold shower first?

[thetaintedsorrow]

[Rude, Shell, don’t look at his boner!! Jeeze, now he’s actually blushing.]

I don’t need a cold shower.

[He could easily get himself off in a regular shower though, but with the giant orgy going on outside he’d rather leave sooner than later.]

I’d rather jerk off, but a drink sounds better right now.

[steponme]

[He's the one pitching a tent big enough for a goddamn circus -- it's not like it's easy to miss!!]

Okay, okay... I'll just pick up my winnings on the way out, and then we can go anywhere you want!

[Just don't drink him back into poverty, that would be the meanest revenge.]

[thetaintedsorrow]

Good. Then let’s go.

[Chuuya will try to ignore his boner as he heads out of the locker rooms, and once they collect Shell’s winnings he’ll lead the guy to a local bar that he’s visited several times.

Chuuya slides up to the bar and sits on one of the stools before ordering himself a glass of red wine.]

What are you gonna order?

[steponme]

I still don't really know any drinks... the only time I drink is with you.

[But okay, he wants to make his own choice this time!! So he glances up at the menu of today's specialty drinks written up behind the bar and orders a Flona Cove iced tea. Which is basically just a long island iced tea, aka a big glass with nothing but booze.]

[He's going to get shitfaced, clearly.]

You can get something to eat too, if you want. I don't mind if you eat in front of me -- I'm used to it.

[thetaintedsorrow]

That sounds good, actually.

[Holy shit, Shell is going to get fucked up if he drinks that entire thing...

Should Chuuya stop him? Probably. Is he going to? Nah. Let the guy find out on his own. Meanwhile Chuuya will order some of the local delicacies to sample between drinks.]

You been to Flona Cove yet?

[steponme]

Yeah! I went with Reign earlier this week. I stayed out in the sun too long and got sunburned, but it was still a lot of fun. And the coast is really beautiful at night.

[There might actually be a little visible redness to his cheeks if he looks closer, but nothing too obvious -- it wasn't too bad, thankfully.]

I'd never really been the beach before. The region closest to the ocean was always too warm to visit... but what about you? The place you come from is probably a lot warmer than mine, right?

That smile tho

[thetaintedsorrow]

Yeah? Bet you had a good time under the stars.

[Eyebrow waggle.

Oh, a chance to talk about Yokohama, huh? Chuuya takes a sip of his wine as he stares off into the distance.]

In the summer, yeah. I got to go to the beach a lot for jobs. Only a couple of times for leisure.

[He’s been to Flona cove a few times too, which had been fun. It’s always hilarious to see people’s reactions to Chuuya walking on water.]

You should try swimming. Unless vampires don’t like water or something.

Protect Shell's Smile 2k18

[steponme]

[I mean, maybe he did, who knows -- they're about to fall into a cuddle lagoon in their thread. So he just kind of shoots Chuuya a look at that.]

It sounds like you must have been working a lot. But I guess something like a mafia doesn't have normal work hours, right?

[If they even have set hours at all. He may not be familiar with the specific term, but he's no stranger to things like criminal syndicates or less-than-lawful organisations. Still, he should complain to a labor union, get himself some time off benefits, clearly.]

I wanted to try swimming, but I didn't really have anything I could wear. It's not exactly a popular sport back home, since it's pretty much always winter.

[thetaintedsorrow]

[More power to you, Shell. Get that kinky vampire on vampire sex.]

We took vacations every now and then, but no, you don’t just clock in and out when you work for the Mafia.

[Chuuya raises an eyebrow at that.]

Why not just swim nude? Especially if you don’t get cold.

[steponme]

[Excuse u he is from a psuedo-Victorian steampunk vampire era, and he draws the line at exhibitionism.]

Wh-What!? No way, that would be indecent!

[Except the lady doth protest too much and maybe he's already done that, We Just Don't Know.]

[But he's going to hide the fact that it sounds humiliating (and thus, exciting) by taking a nice long sip of his drink. It was pretty tasty, actually...]

[thetaintedsorrow]

[As if getting a boner from being kicked isn’t indecent!!]

Why? If there’s nobody around it doesn’t matter, right? I walk around naked at home sometimes.

[Or with a very loosely tied towel around his waist that leaves very little to the imagination.]

I also heard the water has aphrodisiac properties, but you obviously don’t need any help there.

[steponme]

That's... different! And I don't do that either.

[ANOTHER LONG DRINK he's gonna chug this thing at this rate.]

[He mumbles something to himself at Chuuya's comment about the water, but then shakes his head and sighs, leaning forward with his elbow on the counter and his chin resting on his hand.]

You say that like I use my pheromones on everyone... I don't really like using them on people. I'm glad I don't have to here.

[thetaintedsorrow]

I know you wouldn’t.

[Chuuya’s on like, his third glass of wine now. Oops.]

You’re not that kind of guy. I can tell.

[Thank god Chuuya isn’t holding a grudge. A fight is a fight, after all, and Shell used his ability just like Chuuya did.]

You don’t need to use them anyway. You’re not exactly plain looking.

[steponme]

[And here we see Chuuya, looking to get white girl wasted on wine alone. Shell's finished his drink by now, and at a loss of what else to order, he just...orders another. What's the worst that could happen?]

...I used to be that kind of guy. I told you humans were always afraid of me... but other vampires were too. Cause my pheromones were so strong. And cause it was easier. No one would ever know what I was really like like if they couldn't get close to me...

[Despite the topic, he smiles brightly at Chuuya, cheeks flushing at the compliment.]

But I'm glad I can be the real me here, cause I was able to meet you and be your friend!

[thetaintedsorrow]

Yeah, but you were pretending. That’s not who you really are.

[You thought!! But Chuuya orders a fireball whiskey once he’s warmed himself up on wine.

Oh god damn it, why do people always have to say that kinda thing with the big, bright smiles?? Chuuya will just blame the light flush on his cheeks on the booze, but he won’t hide his own fond little smile.]

Ditto.

[He raises his glass, looking playful.]

Cheers.

1/2

[steponme]

[Just accept the kawaii vampires into ur life, Chuuya-kun...]

[But okay, the alcohol is definitely starting to hit him full-force now. Still smiling, he raises his own glass to toast with him before taking another long drink. It really was pretty good... there was lemon in it, but not enough to upset his stomach, and he couldn't taste the alcohol at all! It did make him wonder exactly what was in it... maybe it just wasn't that strong!]

[steponme]

[...or so he thought, cause in about ten minutes, Shell's reached the point of giggling at nothing, half draped over the counter.]

Hee... heehee... heey, Chuuya? Since we're drinkin', does that mean you're gonna try and snuggle into bed with me again?

[thetaintedsorrow]

[Oh boy, what a lightweight. Looks like Chuuya is going to be dragging him back home again.

He huffs at that question, grumbling into his glass.]

Like hell. That was a one time thing.

[Look at him being tsundere...]

More like you’ll be draping yourself all over me.

[steponme]

Hmmmmm~? But you did it twice already! Even if I was the only one drinking the second time.

[Even if he tried to kick his ass earlier, his impression of Chuuya is still that of a cuddly cutesy human who drinks a lot and passes out in peoples laps.]

[thetaintedsorrow]

[B-baka!!! That never happened!!!]

Tch. Well it’s definitely not happening if you keep that up.

[Blush blush grumble grumble.]

Anyway. You’re already drunk. Take it easy on the booze.
