BiT live

Who: Cosmo
Where: Lobby
When: 436

[Cosmo is rocking a look. Minus the plague mask, it's just his normal mask. He's got a set of fruity drinks in front of him, and he's leaning back with a drink in hand.]

"Risk" and "Reward".

Half of these drinks are non-alcoholic, most of the rest are quite potently alcoholic, a few are drugged.

The risk is obvious, the reward is engaging in the live. Or perhaps in avoiding the traps.

The drugs are one of three kinds--a potent psychedelic, a numbing agent, and something to get you a little hot under the collar. Do take it elsewhere if you get that last one.

[He sips his drink.]

Of course some say the best way to win at gambling is not to play, but where's the fun in that?

((OOC: tag any toplevels with the aphro as nsfw and you can have like, multiple if you want. I'll toplevel Lahabrea to talk to but you can also just engage with drugs.))

[ the forehead kiss didn't get any reaction in particular but for whatever reason, even through her inebriation, at "you have a kind heart" her head just

face even redder somehow ]

That's - um -

T-Thank... you . . .

[ wah ]

I want to take care of you too - . . .

But what do you want to do together?
tradesecret: (z) I'll go first... I've had a good life)

[personal profile] tradesecret 2022-02-08 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
Cooking things I like. Reading stories I enjoy, running errands... I'd feel sad if you did them alone, because I'd like to spend time with you.
constellationprize: (34)

[personal profile] constellationprize 2022-02-08 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
Mm, okay...
tradesecret: (z) Well; someone's got to break the ice)

[personal profile] tradesecret 2022-02-08 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
So let me know when you'd like to do that. I'll make time for you.

[ wah.......... ]

I'll text you, okay...?
tradesecret: (z) I enjoy getting presents)

[personal profile] tradesecret 2022-02-08 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
I'll look forward to it!

[ she's so happy! ]

[ yayyyy

contentedly nuzzling at her lap a bit. love auntie ]
tradesecret: (z) So your work has not changed.)

[personal profile] tradesecret 2022-02-08 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
[ petting her head. ]

I promise, no matter where I go, I'll never forget you. You and your mother are so precious to me.

[OH MY GODS]

That is highly debatable!

NA-UH! IT'S ALSO HIGHLY DEBATABLE THAT THESE PLEB ROCKS WOULD BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR SOMEONE AS INCREDIBLE AND AMAZING AS ZHONGLI.

Mother of the year. And I thought mine was already bad enough.

So you manipulated that person, only to become his friend in the process? What an exciting tale.
tradesecret: (z) How many husbands have you had?)

[personal profile] tradesecret 2022-02-12 08:49 am (UTC)(link)
It was fun for me, but also cruel of him to do. That man wanted to push him to a breaking point, but those who never had anything to begin with never trust when something— or someone— just falls into their lap.
abovefate: (pic#15219964)

[personal profile] abovefate 2022-02-12 08:52 am (UTC)(link)
So he never trusted you to start with. Not surprising.
tradesecret: (z) No; sorry. I said 'no' meaning 'yes'.)

[personal profile] tradesecret 2022-02-12 09:03 am (UTC)(link)
I was used by both of them.

[ And yet, she's pretty delighted at being used by the other guy. ]
abovefate: (pic#15219995)

[personal profile] abovefate 2022-02-12 09:05 am (UTC)(link)
Mmm ... but you don't seem to be all that heartbroken about it. You even asked me how I feel to understand him better, no?
tradesecret: (z) Everything all right?)

[personal profile] tradesecret 2022-02-12 09:08 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, but also to understand you better. Your circumstances are similar, but not the same.

Did you stay with your creator?
abovefate: (pic#14878241)

[personal profile] abovefate 2022-02-12 09:18 am (UTC)(link)
No. I was a failed prototype, and she went on to make better models before eventually settling on the correct Puppet.

She didn't have the heart to kill me, so she sealed me in an empty mansion, and left me to slumber there. I wasn't supposed to wake up, but I did.

The last time I saw her I killed her.
tradesecret: (z) "No" there is? Or "no" there isn't?)

[personal profile] tradesecret 2022-02-12 02:24 pm (UTC)(link)
...is that what they call "all's well that ends well?"

Or was that just the start of another story?
abovefate: (pic#14878220)

[personal profile] abovefate 2022-02-12 02:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm ...

I do suppose the start of another story is more accurate. I ended up setting in motion a series of events that caused my death afterwards.
tradesecret: (z) Everything all right?)

[personal profile] tradesecret 2022-02-12 03:47 pm (UTC)(link)
...do you regret that?

Will you use whatever power is here to go back?
abovefate: (pic#15219971)

[personal profile] abovefate 2022-02-12 03:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he considers whether he wants to answer her truthfully, quiet for a few moments before he answers ]

I don't care that I died, and I don't regret what happened. Maybe I feel just slightly responsible for some aspects of it, but I hated my world and it can all burn for all I care.

I won't go back there. But I have no intention of staying dead. I'm thinking of traveling across different worlds.
tradesecret: (z) So your work has not changed.)

[personal profile] tradesecret 2022-02-12 04:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[ she understands that feeling and doesn't make any attempt to argue with it. ]

Well, if that's the case, I hope we might be able to travel together, at least for a little while.
abovefate: (pic#14878223)

[personal profile] abovefate 2022-02-12 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh? Are you inviting me to your world?
