« « « MILLIONS OF MISCHIEFS

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.

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.

Oh, and one more thing. It's fucking cold. Better bundle up.

« « « LAST WEEK ON

The LIEs Program has proven to be relentless in their search for the Deceit Gene by going to any length to push participants into sexual situations and contracts. It is clear now that the citizens of Duplicity support the LIEs Program. The ship, which docked in a powerless and empty city, has vanished back out to sea and as the fifteenth contract was signed, the lights have come back on. Duplicity is bustling again. In fact, it's as if nothing ever happened. If one was to ask they'd be met by either genuine or Oscar worthy confusion. The city was 'never' without power and daily life had never changed. Great, more bullshit.

New arrivals are brought in the same way as they have in the past and that same, annoying, train tour is available the day after orientation. The city is in clean up mode. While the Up and the Down vary in levels of cleanliness, all of Duplicity is actively sprucing the place up. Fresh paint. Street cleaning. Those oh so satisfying pressure washers are out and about. There's a surprise visitor coming and Duplicity's government and the LIEs program are hasty to prepare.

Duplicity needs your help! For every hour of cleaning, an Eternity Card usable for purchases by both Dominants and Submissives, will be loaded with twenty bucks. For every hour completed with a partner, it's thirty!

The day 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.

In preparation for the super mysterious visitor, Duplicity is asking for everyone to band together for a day of fundraising. As it is the kind thing to do, supporting local small businesses is the method of choice! Fifty percent of all proceeds will go to freshening up Duplicity, specifically the Down. Get out there and show those businesses some love. On showcase are The Naughty Persian, PECS, The 13th Step, the Arena, and:

When you’re on the hunt, USE DEFRONT!

The perfect fit, the right fit, the only fit.
Invented by an elderly Dominant and Submissive couple, Fildos are exactly what one might imagine them to be: portable dildos placed onto the fingers for immediate pleasure and satisfaction. At one of the many sample shops found throughout the Down, workers are happy to construct personalized Fildos right there on the spot. A mold of the buyer's fingers are taken, and within an hour, everything is ready.

Individual Fildos are always sold in a set of 10. (And for those a little more adventurous, there are the occasional Tildo shops to be found as well.)

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[ He's about to respond that the kids aren't that young, they're not preadolescent. But they are too young to have to endure this kind of thing. It's already scary enough coming into ones sexuality without prying eyes and a waiting room of people outside cheering you on.

But he stops, and just looks up at Charles with his full attention. As long as Erik had known him, Charles had always been so flirtatious, happily using his charm and wit and gifts to help himself to a host of willing women. Erik supposes he never stopped to consider what it would be like after the incident. ]

I'm sorry, Charles.

[ He reaches out to lay a hand over top of his friend's. ]

I think they're unlikely to send you home; you could find us.

[ Which means if he proves to be useless, it's more likely they'll kill him. He knows that thought was a little too loud. ]

--I won't let that happen.

I'm hardly a helpless babe in the woods, old friend. [His smile is a bit crooked, hand twitching under Erik's.] ... But thank you.

[He nods to the chessboard, withdrawing his hand as if to just gesture at the pieces.] Your move.

No, and that's what they want us to think we all are.

[ He takes his move, after a brief moment of thought. ]

But you have to admit, we're hard men to capture.

[ And the fact that they can easily just sedate them at any time... Means they have to be careful. As much as it seems like it sometimes, he's not trying to get Charles killed. ]

Are we?

[Because... you've been captured in Charles' past, man.

Not that Charles is going to mention it, just absently picking up one of his Bishops, turning it this way and that between his fingers.]

No one is infallible. Not even us, I'm afraid.

[Then he smiles and the expression isn't necessarily the most friendly one to appear on the usually charming man's face.] Though I do pity the fools who try. You can't tell me you haven't been itching to cause some mischief since your arrival, here.

[ Yeah, well, Erik didn't think it was a good idea at the time to start World War III for something as simple as his freedom, so. Hence, the capture.

Rude to bring that up though, old friend! ]

You have no idea. Until now I wasn't even sure if this was all some sort of telepathic projection and they'd gotten ahold of Cerebro.

I've been trying to scramble my thoughts at every step, manage all my words. Do you know how hard it is to recruit people for a cause you have to publicly pretend not to believe in?

[ By this time, the water's boiled, so Erik stands up to go attend to it. ]

Sign a contract with me.

[ He means platonically. ~~I do not~~. ]

[Whatever flippant comment Charles might have had prepared for Erik's recruitment issues is lost at that rather direct demand.]

... I'm sorry, I don't think I heard you correctly.

[Erik. What the actual fuck?]

I won't put anything in it. I'll let you live where you choose, even rent you a private studio if you prefer it.

You don't even have to see me, but you don't know what they do to uncontracted Submissives.

[ And then he comes over with their tea. ]

I remember you once said no one should try to go it alone. Turns out this is something I can't crack by myself. I need you, and I don't need you to be bogged down by the endless distractions they throw at us.

... You have no idea how bizarre it is to sit here, listening to you of all people saying that.

[Shakes his head, staring at the tea and for one moment, wishing it were something stronger.]

I can't just ask you to provide everything for me.

[But he'd paid attention during the tour and the information sessions. He can't even work without a Dom's help. And even if he could, he somehow suspects he's unlikely to find any vaguely decently paying jobs for a paraplegic person.]

[ Erik may not be a mind reader, but the way this conversation is currently going, he doesn't have to be one to rifle through his cabinets and procure a bottle of scotch which he pours them both generous fingers of. ]

You aren't asking. I'm offering. There's a difference.

[ Plus, he knows that Charles has always had people taking care of him. Maids, servants, Hank. There is no way that boy knows how to live alone. Erik is not entirely sure he knows how to read an electricity bill or which way to load the dishwasher. ]

[Excuse you, Erik, Charles knows how to handle finances and the dishwasher. Hank's just refused to let him help with chores since he got paralysed, gosh.

... Everything else is true though.]

... Let me think on it, please. [Said with a sigh, even as he gratefully accepts the whiskey and takes a generous 'sip' of it.

Maybe he can get a job as a teacher... Surely even this city has schools (that aren't related to sex)?]

Fine.

[ But Erik bristles a bit because, well. He's already seen several accounts of submissives getting assaulted. He can't imagine that native dominants will feel any sympathy towards the wheelchair.

He wonders if Charles will be able to convince his way out of the zoo or if he'll just wake up there, dazed out of his mind. ]

...Do you know what that lipstick was? The one they were trying to sell you?

No, actually.

[He goes and pulls out said chapstick from his pocket - a tiny sample-sized one, but there nonetheless.] They were very insistent that I'd have to expose myself to get a perfect colour match so when I declined, they pushed this on me and told me to consider coming back with my Dom.

[He's mildly scandalised still from the experience, but mostly amused, sipping his whiskey as he examines the tiny tube in his hand.]

[ Erik downs his entire drink. He's going to need it. ]

It overrides what it is you want and supplants it with what it is they want.

Everyone around you becomes irresistible.

I'd suggest you not put it on while we're the only people in the room. And honestly I don't imagine Stephen would appreciate it either.

[ He pours himself more scotch. ]

... It's that potent? Really?

[Now he's looking at the chapstick with more interest, uncapping it to give it a cautious sniff, as if he might be able to detect whatever was used to create such mind-altering arousal.]

[ U DON'T KNOW THERE AREN'T PHEREMONES IN THAT THING WHAT ARE YOU DOING ]

Charles.

Just trust me on this one.

You've tried it yourself?

No, but I've seen people try on the swatches and leave the stand.

[ Charles what are you doing ]

[Look, this is a man who often forgets safety in the face of science.]

Just the lipsticks, or these balms as well?

It's not the pigment, Charles, it's the rest of the formula.

[ He might be shrinking away a bit like he's afraid Charles is going to use him as a test case. ]

Were they swatched on their hands or their lips?

[Because he knows the skin of the lips are much more delicate than hands, so that might affect absorption of the formula... or is it because people have the bad habit of licking their lips that it's so much more effective at their mouths?]

I don't know, I wasn't paying that rapt attention.

Will you please hand that to me so I can throw that out.

[ Is he still brandishing it oh my god Charles why ]

You're not even slightly curious about how it works?

[Openly grinning now because wow. He knows you sleep around, Erik, so why are you so concerned over this?]

Not remotely, and I don't need any of the assistance it may afford me.

[ He's going to reach over and try to snatch it you jerk. ]

I never said you did?

[Nope, it's his, it's all he has that's his in this stupid city and he just immediately wraps his fingers around to save it from Erik's grabbing.

... Which also smears a bit along his palm, whoops.]

... Oh dear.

[Taking his hand back closer to himself, opening it and seeing that little glisten of balm on his skin. But... no, not feeling anything strange. Rubbing his fingers over the spot curiously.]

Hmm...

...

[ Charles no. Charles. NO. ]

I'm locking you in my room in a second.

[ He rephrases that. ]

Alone.
