It's discouraging to think how many people are shocked by honesty and how few by deceit. Yet, solace is found in the lies we tell each other, comforted by the peace of knowing that we're not alone in our depravity, and once on this path, sin itself becomes the lesser of two evils masked in a cloud of normalcy. This is how Duplicity has functioned since the beginning. The divide of power and social standing is overt in that Dominants influence the decisions made both publicly and privately while Submissives cater to the rules presented to them. It is the way of Duplicity to assign random designations at birth with no leeway in altering what has been given. Climate in the Up is far stricter than that of the Down; violating outlined personas for a Dominant or Submissive while in full view of others is punished by degree of infraction. In the Down, many tend to turn a blind eye to these sorts of offenses. To counteract the discovery of the Deceit Gene – a natural "negative" response to all stimuli – the L.I.E.S. program was founded. The program had been designed to introduce new subjects to the current environment and test for the Deceit Gene through immersion in Duplicity's standing society. Sexual impulses and encounters increase the chances of detecting the gene within these individuals. Participants are typically released from L.I.E.S. after a year; however, results have remained unsatisfactory and testing still continues. ... and you’re here! Finally! Welcome to Duplicity. After choosing a door and stepping through to the other side, the first thing that greets you are the enthusiastic faces of people in medical scrubs and pristine lab coats. Their enthusiasm translates to eagerness as they strip you of your clothes to perform a thorough examination—you will be healed, bathed, and given a paper gown to wear until your items can be processed and delivered to your residence later in the evening. You are also given a device that accesses the network as well as the time and location of orientation. If you enter Duplicity into the Up, congratulations! You’re a Dominant, which means you are immediately picked up by a limo after processing and taken to your highrise. Here, it is two Dominants per floor with separate apartments. If you enter Duplicity into the Down, congratulations! You’re a Submissive, which means you are directed towards public transportation with the address of the motel you’ll be living in. Here, it is two Submissives per room with a shared common space for all rooms. Enjoy your free time until orientation! Participation is mandatory by all new and old arrivals. Winter is here and snow flurries are common in the Up while the slush collects in the Down. |
 After stepping through the door and participating in orientation, LIERS are assembled together in the Up for a tour of Duplicity in its entirety. Seats are in pairs and randomly assigned to Dominants and Submissives alike. Traveling from Fiddler's Square, the train journeys through various parts of the Up, showcasing society and examples of lifestyle. Along the way, frequent stops are made; a variety of passengers can be seen exiting and entering the doors. A Dominant with a kneeling Submissive takes a seat near the front of the train at one stop. A small group of Submissives board and sit closer to the LIERS at another, all seemingly content in their roles. As the tour continues through the Up, the train passes close to the Market and White Wall Bridge and zips by North Park before heading into the Down and bypassing Red Wall Bridge and South Park. The train makes a "final" stop at Riddler's Square, where inhabitants of the Down are instructed to return to their temporary housing. Those who live in the Up are permitted to stay on the train and revisit the same locations while returning. |
 As a particularly heavy snowstorm blows across the city, Duplicity finds itself blanketed in white. The morning after the storm, many citizens seem to be in a particularly mischievous mood and snowballs are a common sight flying through the air. A projectile meant for someone else may hit you square in the face if you're not careful — and then it's on. Joining these impromptu snow battles is encouraged, no matter a person's designation, and even Submissives teaming up to pelt unsuspecting Dominants with snowballs is generally taken in the spirit of good fun. Not everyone is throwing snow, of course — some are rolling much larger balls and shaping them into lewd snow figures. Those feeling chilled after playing in the snow may experience the urge to warm up with someone else, skin to skin. Whether they're a stranger or a familiar face, holding hands, kissing, or getting down and dirty with the nearest willing partner is invigorating. It might even be the only way to really feel warm again. |
 (cw: aphro, humiliation kink) Want to make some quick cash? After exiting the train in the Down, there seems to be a questionable character hanging about the station. Dressed in a trenchcoat and looking more like a flasher than the businessman he claims to be, this shady recruiter offers easy money in exchange for a simple delivery. Just take a package and drop it off at the address on the label. Really, that's it! Stop asking questions. Should characters decide to open the package themselves instead, they'll discover one of the following: glitter — so much glitter, lube (appears normal, but actually contains hot pepper and will cause more than a mild tingling sensation if used anywhere sensitive), a package of flavored condoms mysteriously labeled "every flavor" (none of them taste good), candy or perfume containing an aphrodisiac that, in addition to the usual libido-boosting effect, will also cause an intense craving for humiliation. It seems to be one of those services that allows one to send anonymous prank gifts, and they're hiding behind LIERs as couriers. There's no return address or company information on or inside the package, except for a card marked Encoded Sin Corp — which does not seem to be a real company if the name is searched. Whether characters end up delivering the package — maybe even to a fellow LIER — or get into some trouble along the way, someone is getting a nasty surprise. |
 (cw: aphro, dubcon, excessive fluids, exhibitionism, public use)A small winter market has been set up along one of the major streets in the Up with stalls selling a variety of goods ranging from knitted hats and scarves, soaps, scented lotions, candles, jewelry, artwork and assorted crafts to hand-dyed bondage rope and kinky leather accessories. Food and drink stands are plentiful as well. Strings of lights crisscross the street between the roofs of the shops, providing a cheerful glow, and there are tables set up in the street itself for people to sit and chat while having a snack — if they can stand the cold. Some of the most popular treats being sold are hot chocolate, eggnog, marshmallow snowmen, and sugar cookies decorated like snowflakes. Of course, their popularity may have something to do with the effects they produce when consumed. • The hot chocolate simply gets one all hot and bothered. • The eggnog may cause heavy production of sexual fluids, a desire to be filled or covered with someone else's cream, or all of the above. • The marshmallow snowmen will make those who eat them want to invite others to use them as they please, desiring nothing more than to be molded into the perfect fucktoy. • The sugar cookies seem to induce all sorts of different cravings — after all, no two snowflakes are alike! These effects tend to last at least an hour and may, in some cases, last up to a full day. One of the jewelry shops sells an unusual selection of compass pendants and bracelets. The compass arrows spin round and round lazily while the pieces are on display. Once worn, however, that changes. The arrow will settle on a direction, but instead of pointing north it will lead directly to another person. Perhaps you should speak to them? You may even begin to feel magnetically drawn to them yourself… In the event that two people have compasses that point them at each other, the attraction will be even stronger — nearly impossible to deny. There is another shop which sells intricately designed pocket watches and small clocks. When these timepieces are stared at for an extended length of time or picked up and handled, characters will feel a brief but strong connection to their past and experience a vivid flashback to some moment that was, in whatever way, meaningful for them. After reliving the memory, they will feel compelled to speak about it to whoever is nearby. |
Please read carefully. On each Test Drive Meme, there will be a section noting character roles; these will vary each TDM. On an IC level, characters will still have gone through the doors but assignments OOCly are still randomized. When applying, there is a section of the application that denotes whether the character chooses "left" or "right." When participating on the TDM, there will be a third option. Players may link either a top level or a thread (five or more comments from their character) from the TDM and title the link as "Door Pass." This means that the player is choosing to take the designation that they were randomly assigned on the TDM, rather than taking the designation of a door. If the player decides to select a door rather than use the pass, then they are trying their luck; they may get the same designation they had on the TDM or the opposite. Once the application is submitted, players can't change their choice. To assign roles to characters for this TDM, use the following guide: If your character likes it hot, they are a Dominant. If your character prefers the cold, they are a Submissive. To Note: Characters can only swap their designation for one of the following reasons: an event occurs that allows it or there are OOC reasons that make it a necessity. Any swap always requires mod approval and each character can only ever switch once. Characters that are being reapped will keep their previous designation but players can choose to use new TDMs with different designations for fun! Test Drive threads can be used as activity proofs for characters currently in-game. Please remember to mark any necessary content, and have fun!! |

The sharp teeth drag across sensitive skin and Akutagawa moans, once again raising a hand to his mouth. This time, instead of covering it, he bites down on his fingers to stifle the sound. The warm mouth contrasts with the cold, sending a shiver down Akutagawa's spine. Involuntarily, his hips thrust forward slightly, pushing himself deeper.
no subject
But it would be more interesting to see how close he could get to doing so before the man caves and shoves him away. The younger man's jaw loosens at Akutagawa's thrust, allowing him deeper--only for his sheer girth to not give his teeth much room to avoid him. Sharp tips press more firmly against the skin of his shaft as his tongue swirls to brush against where the tips meet.
no subject
His dick twitches in Jade's mouth, body tensing. He's close. Very close.
no subject
As Akutagawa's body responds more feverishly, Jade's hand around him tightens to start a slow but steady pace of strokes aided by the warmth of his own saliva.
no subject
When he cums, his fingers yank Jade's hair, pulling his head back violently. It hurts, the way the teeth scrape, but at the same time, the sensation is mind-blowing. Akutagawa moans in a mix of pleasure and pain, toes curling in his boots as he releases onto Jade. He doesn't particularly care where -- his mouth, his face, it's all the same to him. They'd agree to engage in a transaction, not decided how that transaction would go. Akutagawa owes him nothing.
no subject
He hadn't realized how he'd been holding his breath during his work and even now his hand keeps stroking Akutagawa through his orgasm as it spurts across his lips and cheek. It isn't until he's sure that he's finished that his gloved hand slows its steady rhythm and he speaks; "I see age has no bearing..."
no subject
Akutagawa doesn't particularly find things beautiful. He can acknowledge that things are aesthetically pleasing, but they never really speak to him. This feels different. This feels, a little, like living might. The only thing that could possibly make it better is if the blood had been Jade's own.
Nonetheless, when he speaks, it is simply to ask, "What the hell does that mean?"
no subject
"Just that one's age does not make them any more enduring. We were always taught in the sea that the oldest fish were the wisest and most resilient. I suppose that isn't always the case of the land population."
no subject
"I could kill you where you stand, you know."
no subject
Jade steps forward, closing the gap between them to press his bloodied lips against Akutagawa's own with little regard to the rest of the mess on his face. Perhaps the close quarters and his own contact with the perfume had begun to take their toll.
no subject
He hadn't expected this to go on beyond what it had already been, but it seems for now, he's making no move to stop Jade.
no subject
After all, the blood--the essence on his lips and in their mouths wasn't his own. Yet when the kiss is broken, Jade doesn't move away but instead takes hold of Akutagawa's exposed cock again in cold leather-clad fingers. "Do you like your own taste?"
no subject
It's a simple answer. The blood itself is thrilling, but the taste of his own cum is something that he's neutral about at best.
He's still sensitive from his previous orgasm and the fingers brush against the scrape on his cock in a way that has him hissing between his teeth. It hurts, but in a way that sends a jolt of electricity throughout his body. He shudders, a shaky hand reaching up to grasp at Jade's arm. Normally, he'd be finished by now. The requirements for quota have been met, so there is no reason to continue, but, most likely due to the effects of the perfume, he feels his body heat up with desire once more.
no subject
Or perhaps the perfume that Akutagawa believes was drugged is taking hold. He gives a few more slow strokes before tilting his head and nipping sharply at the other man's lips. Talk really wasn't that important in this situation, but he'd eventually have to ask a rather prominent question.
Oh well. He'd cross that whirlpool eventually. "Turn around, please."
no subject
"We're done here." The words are said, but Akutagawa does not shove him off or make a move to move around him. Instead, he lingers in the same spot, expression blank and unreadable.
He has no reason to continue. They've met quota, and he'd been taken care of, so why...? Why did the aphrodisiac still have to have an affect on him? He wants to submit, wants to obey every order he's given, but he's far too stubborn to not at least try and fight it.
no subject
Yet this particular being with their fragile flesh leaned into them and encouraged the feeling of pain. Jade's hand grips the stiffening cock again, gloved fingertip brushing over the tip. "It doesn't seem that way."
