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 LIEs 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 LIEs 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 high-rise. 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. Submissives are provided with a plain black pleather collar to wear and Dominants are given bracelets made of the same black pleather. The simple design is an immediate visual indicator that they have not yet signed a contract and they will be informed that more elaborate or personalized styles are a privilege reserved for those who do. Enjoy your free time until Orientation! Participation is mandatory for all new and past arrivals. The weather has been noticeably cooler lately, with some afternoon heat lingering around depending on the day. Fall is nearly here; can you feel it? |
 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. |
 (cw: collars/harnesses, corsets) LIERs, both new and old, no doubt find some aspects of Duplicity culture shocking and may fail to assimilate without proper guidance. Whether or not they are contracted, LIERs will find themselves wearing and handling clothes and accessories that may look or feel unfamiliar. For this reason, LIEs staff are helpfully introducing different kinds of fashion that characters will typically encounter in the city. Arrivals get to attend a seminar on the use, handling, and care for clothing made of fabric like leather, latex, or lace. The seminar includes the importance of using such clothes to express one's identity, and how it can be used to highlight designation. Submissives may end up assisting Dominants in lacing up corsets or fitting into slick bodysuits. Characters of opposite designations will also be paired for a basic leathercraft workshop, where collars and harnesses can be customized to suit a particular design, preference or fit. If LIERs feel compelled to take any new pieces of their wardrobe for a test drive, even better! At the end of Orientation, participants are given complimentary fetishwear to take home. Enjoy a new latex thong or pleather jock strap, on the house! |
 (cw: insects, sexual compulsions) As the weather in Duplicity begins its transition into autumn, a slumbering menace from the ground begins to hatch and propagate. Tiny little moths, iridescent blue and red, seem to appear out of nowhere, congregating around sources of bright light, regardless of the time of day. They can be found on various surfaces (trees, the walls of buildings, etc.) and while they appear to be particularly harmless, they do bite. Not on purpose, however; it isn't blood or flesh they seek. No, it's clothing, especially the sort made out of cotton and other organic fabrics. If they bite, it's by mistake, trying to chew and munch their way through clothing. They seem to especially enjoy undergarments, gnawing holes through panties, boxers, briefs, and bras alike. The bites themselves don't hurt or even itch all that much, but they do cause characters to feel oddly amorous toward others who have also been bitten. Side effects wear off after an hour, but unfortunately, the underwear holes are here to stay. Maybe that complimentary kinkwear you received during Orientation would be a smart thing to put on in the meantime — the moths don't seem to like leather or PVC very much! |
 (cw: insects, aphrodisiacs, sexual compulsions) With lingerie shops and other clothing stores in an outrage due to damages and loss — courtesy of those irksome moths — the city has prepared an all-out assault in a bid to get the pests under control. Buildings are fumigated and streets and parks are sprayed with various chemicals to rid the Up and Down of the moths. While their efforts do have results, and the moth repellent drives away the infestation in a matter of days, the chemicals also have unintended side effects on those who breathe it in or come into contact with the substance in one form or another. Said effects include heightened sensitivity, increased libido, and in particularly extreme cases, unquenchable sexual insatiability — all of which will only subside once the chemical has fully worked its way out of the body in a day or two. As compensation to citizens and new arrivals who may have had their clothing ruined during the entire ordeal, gift cards are handed out so that LIERs may purchase new outfits from the very stores who suffered losses. While available stock might be low, there is still enough of a selection for individuals to find something suitable to wear — even if it may be outside their typical comfort zone. Since uncontracted Submissives are unable to purchase anything on their own, they will be paired with a Dominant to accompany them on their LIEs-sanctioned shopping trip. Time to put those fashion lessons from Orientation to good use! |
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 the assignments are OOCly 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 would prefer stability, they are a Submissive. If your character would embrace passion, they are a Dominant. 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 tag on 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!! |
no subject
You don't have to hang around and see how it turns out. [It doesn't feel right not to offer an out, even if he finds he would deeply prefer if she stayed.]
no subject
[ and she means it, in spite of how little comfort it provides.]
You're new, I just want to make sure you're okay.
no subject
I'm fine. [He pauses, then finally admits:] But I want to kiss you.
no subject
It might make you feel better. [ it might be nice, she's just saying.]
no subject
With his flesh hand, he very gently cups the back of her head-- and her hair is so soft. He leans in, shutting his eyes and kissing her firmly.]
no subject
eventually it breaks and she pulls back, breathless and with a smile settling over her lips.] Any better?
no subject
When it breaks, he follows her lips back for a moment before pausing to respond to her.]
Yeah. Much better. [A small smile tugs at his lips, a little shy.]
I don't know if one kiss was ever gonna be enough.
no subject
Well, the thing about that is - I didn't say we had to stop at one.
[ hopefully he won't mind if she takes the liberty of gently reaching up, one hand resting against the side of his jaw as she leans in for another kiss, more passionate this time now that she knows it's okay to let herself enjoy this.]
no subject
Just a moment, though. When her hand touches his jaw, he knows what to do. Cable leans down, kissing her deeply. His metal arm circles her, resting on the small of her back to draw her in even closer. His tongue runs gently over her bottom lip, sliding into her parted mouth.]
no subject
she craves that intensity, eagerly meeting it with her own as she enjoys a deeper taste of him. and if one kiss wasn't enough - well, she's quickly losing track of how many this is because she doesn't pull away after the second. her touch only roams a little - not wanting to be too presumptuous- fingertips of one hand stroking along the front of his shirt while the other slides up against against the back of his neck.]
no subject
A little self-conscious, he reaches out quickly to catch her hand, gently guiding it to the parts of his neck with more skin. It is impossible to tell if he moves it for her comfort (the metal parts of him are cold) or his (it feels nicer to have his skin touched).
Cable rubs her lower back slowly as they kiss, tracing his tongue over hers in their kiss. His hand moves down, testing how she feels if it starts to run over the curve of her ass.]
no subject
to her, all of it feels good, everything from the way she licks into his mouth to the slide of his hand against her ass. whether his touch brings her more firmly pressed against him or Barbie does it on her own she couldn't say. all she knows is that closer is better (and still not enough).
she breathes out for a moment, releasing a hushed moan between them. they're in public - she wasn't really expecting this - but she can't really tear herself away, so Barbie catches up by crushing her mouth against his all over again.]
no subject
What's more important to him is how soft her lips are and how good it feels to feel the heat between their mouths. The moan is very exciting, particularly when she follows it by crushing their lips together eagerly.
His hand runs slow, experimental circles over the curve of her ass and he kisses her back with equal intensity. Cable hums softly, long and low against her lips. It's when his breath hitches that he starts to remember again that they're in public.
He catches her chin gently with his metal hand to gently stop the kiss, but he's not far away when he murmurs:]
Did you want to go somewhere private? [He hesitates, making himself ask:] Or do you have somewhere you need to be?
[He feels he shouldn't presume he's entitled to her attention, even if he likes it.]
no subject
she can't even claim an aphro's influence, she'd been careful not to try to the food. she blushes a little at the thought, eyes warm and filled with desire when she tilts her head back to look up at him.] Somewhere private is probably a good idea.
[ it makes her feel better to have the choice - to know that she's with the kind of person who would offer her one. but Barbie's clear on what she wants, even if she realizes she should probably be just as open about her own experiences.]
I should warn you that I've only done this a few times. Just in case that bothers you. [ she's glad sex is a part of her life now, but she can understand someone thinking it's weird that it took her so long, especially when everyone else seems so confident in what they're able to offer each other.]
no subject
Her confession gives him pause and for a moment he feels guilty. Is he rushing her? But he remembers the look she gave him, and it's hard even for him to deny that they both want this equally.
It surprises him for reasons he can assess are self-imposed, his age, the way he looks. He could go on, but he can't deny what he's feeling from her.
He takes her hand, leading her gently toward a secluded alley which feels very rough for a girl like her but awfully convenient.]
It doesn't bother me. [He says it firmly.]
But if things move too fast or you don't like something, you'll tell me. [It sounds a bit like an order when he phrases it like that.]
no subject
her eyes brighten to the order he gives her, and Barbie can't really explain how or why it thrills her when Cable words that the way he does. there's already so much she likes, and he hasn't done anything more than kiss her.
she nods, tracing her fingers against his as she takes in the heat of simply touching him, too.] I'll tell you. [ she promises, shivering a little at the contrast between the warmth of his skin and the slight breeze in the air. she watches him admiringly, eyes roaming his body in quiet approval.] But I want you so much, I don't think that's going to be a problem.
no subject
However, her admission that she's inexperienced helps him take a bit more initiative. Even if she keeps saying things that make him smile shyly.]
You're a funny girl.
[He murmurs.
Cable leads her down the alley, turning her gently so her back is to the wall behind a staircase. It's pretty private, but Cable glances around suspiciously before he assesses that this is fine.
He braces his robot arm on the wall alongside her, crowding in so she's mostly concealed from the outside world. From there, his lips find her neck and he starts to press kisses along it, stubbled chin brushing over her as he does.
His flesh hand is still holding hers and he gives it a gentle squeeze.]
no subject
she doesn't need to guide him, but she still does just to steady herself, one hand against the back of his head as her lips fall open and she moans openly for him. she squeezes his hand, chest rising and falling in a strong pull of air that leaves her breasts pressed against him, the light peaks of her nipples starting to poke against the flimsy summer dress she's wearing.
she knows she should be quiet, anyone could stumble this way and she wouldn't even notice if they did - but some part of her wants Cable to hear the sounds he pulls out of her, just so that he knows it's not funny to arouse her this much. she parts her thighs for him, lifting a leg to slide against his side, fabric falling open to welcome him with the heat of her skin.
and she is hot, so much so that the cool metal might be a welcome change when her touch brushes against his robotic arm - but she keeps going, seizes his face in her hands and drags him back for another kiss.]
no subject
He looks surprised when she grabs his face, so much so that it earns her a soft grunt. He doesn't hesitate to kiss her, since that's what she wants and he's never going to complain about it. His tongue swirls gently in her mouth and he hums, appreciative of her.
Now that her leg is nice and settled on his hip, he slides his hand between their bodies and cups one of her breasts. His thumb drags over a nipple, tweaking it gently just to guage her reaction. He's finding his choice of tight T-Shirts is an absolute win, because having her body heat and her breasts up against him has dramatically improved the course of his day.]
no subject
some part of her wishes they were somewhere private, somewhere they could be more comfortably naked and she could feel his skin against hers, but the fiction between them that comes from fabric and body heat and desire might just do it for her, too. she appreciates the muscles in his shoulders and along the expanse of her back, hands lingering where she knows there's skin as opposed to the firm areas of metal that she feels out along the way.
it's not that she doesn't like it, but she can take a hint the first time.
she arches off the wall against him, feeling the solid outline of his cock against the front of her dress. it's reason enough to shift, easing a hand between them to palm him through his pants. there's so much that she wants from him, and just about all of it starts with them dealing with the barrier of their clothes.]
no subject
The cadence of his breath changes, hitching when she touches his shoulders with her soft hands and fingers. He grunts, pleased by her other hand on his cock. He moves his hips against her hand. He flicks open the button of his jeans and unzips, taking her hand by the wrist so he can slide it over his cock (still concealed by trunks).
He makes eye contact with her after this. His hands move back to her thighs, sliding between them and rubbing his fingers over the front of her panties. After a little petting, moving from ghost like touches to firm, he slips his hand into them.
Again, his fingers ghost over the lips of her pussy. His eyes stay focused on hers as he presses a finger past the lips, teasing around her hole before he slides it inside her with a soft hiss.]
You're wet. [He says that as if he's giving her sincere praise for it.]
Does that feel okay?
no subject
it's hard not to close her eyes and lose herself to how this feels, but Barbie knows she'd hate missing any of it.]
Better than okay. [ she takes a breath, sliding his cock out of his trunks so that she can wrap her fingers around his length, so hot and heavy in her hands that she has to stroke him just to settle some of the anticipation.] How about this?
[ something tells her that Cable probably prefers a firm touch, so that's what Barbie offers, though her eyes don't leave his. she wants him to see how much she wants this, even if she's sure he feels it in all the slick he's created between her legs and the slight rock of her hips - eager for more because she can't wait for him to fill her.]
no subject
How about that? [He echoes her question, a small, sly smile playing on his lips. The breathiness of his response probably lets her know that she's making good moves, coupled with the way his cock tenses against her touch.]
You want it in you, don't you? [He presses his forehead against her temple as he murmurs into her ear. His other finger circles her clit firmly before he slides it in with his other finger. He makes beckoning gestures inside of her, pressing curiously against her walls.]
You won't get it until you come for me.
no subject
I want you. [ there's a quiet insistence to it - the way his cock fills her hand is enough to make her yearn to feel it, but his fingers fill her too, and Barbie can't help how tightly she tugs around them from the inside. knowing what he wants, she works her hips, meeting his fingers as she jerks him in hand.
she can't even explain how much she wants to come for him out here, because he knows exactly how to touch her and because she's so eager for more. he hits places inside her that already have Barbie whimpering, and she can't help but realize it usually takes some kind of aphro to get her this needy.
this time it's all Cable, something that might make her smile about this commanding stranger if she wasn't breathlessly trying to come for him. following orders is new to her, and yet it's so sexy she wonders why she hasn't done this before.] Trust me. Coming's not gonna be a problem.
[ because it feels so good she can barely think straight, and after a while he'll feel the tension in her thighs and the way she tightens around him, her eyes squeezing shut as she finds her pleasure and bites her lip to keep from anyone hearing her out here.]
no subject
Cable breathes out a soft laugh at her comment, but she's not lying. Soon after she's clenching around his fingers, getting wetter and warmer inside and biting her lip. Cable catches her mouth and kisses her deeply, giving her a space to moan while he finger-fucks her through her orgasm.
When he pulls back, there's a genuine purr of praise in his voice.]
Good work.
[Cable withdraws his fingers from her, his other hand tilts her chin so he can make sure she watches him suck her off his fingers.
Then he steps back from her.]
Turn around, face the wall and bend over.
