ENDGAME

[kentucky_mcgiygas]

[A wall panel in the green room slides out of view, revealing an elevator. Get in it and it will take you down to the hotel (description here), where your fellow contestants - alive and ghostly - await.

You may spend as long as you want here, ordering up as much room service as you like, but when you're read to go home, you'll find that one floor (new to the current hotel occupants) has nothing but doors with your names on them. Exit, and you'll show up exactly where you were when you left.]

((THANK YOU FOR PLAYING EVERYONE. Ghosts, feel free to materialize and talk to people. You may now speak about your prizes.))

Once we get back to Lord Corrin's army... I can heal you myself. I should be getting reclassed for my consolation prize; I'll have healing staves to use on you right away, and they will make you healthy in little time. You won't have to suffer anymore.

[jinglebros]

..I'm not sure I understand any of what you just said. [ Aoi smiles in an unknowing sort of way. ] But the 'not suffering' part sounds great to me.

[locktouching]

Even if you asked to be attacked, I feel like I should pierce a few arrow shafts into that friend of yours.

[jinglebros]

[ He grins at that but shakes his head. ]

We can punch him, but I don't think we can shoot him. It wouldn't be a great way to say goodbye to June.

[locktouching]

Aw, only punching? Not even a little torture?

[jinglebros]

Kyrie already did that, I think he's had enough.

[locktouching]

Ah, what am I to do? Guess I'll just have to have my fun with you instead.

[jinglebros]

There'll be plenty of time for that when we go through the door, yeah?

[ He grins wickedly. ]

But I wouldn't mind a kiss for the road, with how much I missed you.

[locktouching]

Plenty of time. I can't wait to be out of here and never have to set foot in that game compound again.

[Winds a fistful of Aoi's scarf into his hand and leans in for a nice smooch.]

[jinglebros]

Yeah, fuck that place.

[ Kisses him, intending a short kiss, but keeps it up and moves in closer instead. He really did miss him. ]

[locktouching]

[Takes all the time he wants kissing him, even helping him move closer by pulling him onto his lap.]

Poor Aoi. You've been through so since we've last seen each other.

[jinglebros]

[ Settles into Niles' lap, slipping his arms around his neck. ]

I almost gave up. [ He admits, a bit ashamed of that fact. ] But I knew I couldn't, if I wanted the three of us together again.

[locktouching]

You're getting your reward, and I'm going to make sure that you enjoy it.

It wouldn't do for you to come all the way to Nohr and then have regrets.

[Lightly kisses the corner of his mouth.]

[jinglebros]

I'm not going to regret it.

[ Grins brightly and gives Niles another kiss as well. He doesn't pull back very far, keeping their lips close enough for breath to intermingle. ]

I don't know what I'll do in an army though... can't exactly just sit and look pretty.

[locktouching]

Well there's nothing wrong with that.

[Slides his hand under the scarf to rest it on the side of his neck.]

You could fight. But if you'd rather not, there's healing, plenty of shops and services to run at our camp... or motivating the troops with that prettiness of yours.

[jinglebros]

[ Shivers a bit, in his opinion it's been too long since he's had Niles' hands on his skin. At the last statement he buries his face against Niles' shoulder to hide a flush - it's one thing to joke about prettiness and another to be told he is directly. ]

Somehow, I think that'd only motivate you two...

[locktouching]

I think you'd be more effective than you give yourself credit for. You're very... enticing. Just add some dancing or singing and you'll pull your weight in increasing morale in no time.

[Rubs the back of his neck.]

[jinglebros]

Singing, huh? [ Presses a kiss against Niles' ear and hums. ] I could get into that...

[ He sighs happily. ]

[locktouching]

You're filling me up with wicked energy already...

[Pulls him up even closer on his lap, tugs his scarf loose, and roughly kisses his throat.]

[jinglebros]

[ Makes a surprised and pleased noise at the kiss, his hand sliding into Niles' hair and tugging lightly. ]

You're gonna tempt me to ask for a quick tour of your room before we go...

[ He adjusts himself in Niles' lap so he can wrap a leg around his waist, pressing up chest to chest. ]

[locktouching]

I'm bad enough that I just might be tempted... but I have your injuries to consider. And I'm afraid if I stay here any longer, they're going to start the game all over again.

[Kisses him open-mouthed anyway.]

[jinglebros]

[ Doesn't respond, just kisses him back thoroughly and involves tongue in the kiss too. If they can't go somewhere then he doesn't care about making people uncomfortable with a little making out, he's not seeing these people again anyway. ]

[locktouching]

[Gives his lower lip a little bite.]

Seems you don't really want to ease your suffering after all, hm? I could make you suffer much more.

[jinglebros]

They gave me painkillers when I got here. [ He confesses. ] I'm kind of flying high right now.

[ Pause. ]

Show me.

[locktouching]

"Painkillers"?

[Prods near his stab wound.]

I suppose that means you can't feel much of anything now.
