« « « ALL ON DISPLAY


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 first hints of spring are in the air. Large piles of snow still linger, but precipitation has turned to rain and the breeze gets a little warmer every day. It's time to swap out wool coats for umbrellas and turtlenecks for tea dresses!



» » » ALL ABOARD




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.



« « « NEW CITY NEW ME



(cw: cockwarming, lap sitting, frottage, edging, public sexual acts, public displays, public transport)

Far too many people can’t seem to follow directions. Reading a map shouldn’t be that hard, so LIES has taken it upon themselves to update their usual city tour to refresh newcomers and graduates alike. This month’s orientation includes a more in-depth tour than the usual train ride, coupling it with bus routes that lead groups through various stations and stops that show off some of the city’s most notable landmarks. To your left you will see Fiddler's Square, and over on the right you will see the greenhouse, opened just last year. Enjoy this drive along the coast! The beach looks lovely and the lighthouse stands proud and watchful, but the city recommends against visiting either one. Isn't the business district much lovelier, with all the fancy hotels and lively dance clubs?

Dominants and Submissives both new and old are required to take or give the tour at least once, depending on how long they have been in the city. Those who have lived in the city for over six months will find themselves given maps to follow and brochures that describe various places in town; they are paired with newcomers who haven't been here quite as long, and are still learning what the city has to offer them.

Whether a tour guide or a member of the tour group, Dominants will be given priority seating, while Submissives are expected to either kneel at their feet, sit on their laps, or even stay standing in trains and buses that, curiously, are always packed. Everyone’s taking these tours, so it's no wonder these carriages are so crowded.

Something strange happens on these tours, though. It starts small and faint, but the longer you spend in these crowded buses and trains, the hotter you feel - and the people surrounding you look more and more attractive. But this is Duplicity, and no one will bat an eye if the Submissive on a Dominant’s lap starts humping them in front of everyone else… After all, it seems like everyone else is already also doing the same.

The strange part? No one can get off. No matter how far you take it, or how long you try to climax - you just can't. No one can. No one's getting off on this tour, not until the bus or train makes it to each pre-planned stop. Please mind the gap as you disembark, and try not to come all over the concrete the minute you step out of the vehicle!



» » » STAMP AND GO


(cw: randomized kinks, exhibitionism, transactional sex)

The tours aren't all about sex on the go. While the tour guides are given maps and brochures to study up on, the tour-takers are given little stamp cards and instructions to complete a fun stamp rally. Visiting each of the locations on your card can get you an adorable stamp, and completing the stamps will get you a fun and useful prize! Participating locations include:
▪️ The Aquarium
▪️ The Library
▪️ Cupid's Castle
▪️ PUSSY Academy
▪️ The Obelisk
▪️ Riddler's Square
...and more! Every card is different, and will take you all around the Up and the Down.

The catch - you don't get a stamp until you use your device to scan an official code found in stamp stands at each stop. Doing so brings up a pose to be done with at least one other person. Make sure to pose quickly, a camera somewhere in the area will flash in a few moments to take your photo. Some photos are fairly straightforward - a kiss to the cheek, or a slap to the ass. Others are a bit more involved - giving a blowjob, or getting pegged. Don't complain, some unlucky people might get something convoluted (can anyone truly bend that way? Time to find out!). You get unlimited tries to take the perfect picture - so if you don't manage it the first time, simply scan again and strike another pose. Unfortunately the pose won't change with any additional scans, so make sure to do your best with what you’ve been given!

Completed stamp cards can be exchanged at the Orientation Center for a loaded money pass! Particularly valuable to Submissives (uncontracted ones, or ones who want to buy things by themselves), money passes are honored all over the city, and can be used to purchase necessities without a Dominant’s signature. The pass is valid for a whole month, and has enough to cover a month’s worth of decent warm meals, a few indulgences, and maybe some appropriate clothes for the season. Buy whatever you need to impress the Dominant of your dreams and secure a contract that suits your needs.



« « « DRESS ME UP, ADORE ME


(cw: clothes play, optional crossdressing, optional transactional sex, public sex, mirror sex, exhibitionism)

In a bid to attract new customers, the boutique Delicate Desires has partnered with LIES to advertise their shops as a one-stop-shop for new arrivals to get their hands on necessities they’ll need to make their lives easier and more enriched. With every completed stamp card, Submissives will also receive a coupon for 40% off anything in the store. Get a frilly, lacy outfit for every occasion!

If you don’t have any cash or failed to complete your stamp card - don’t fret! Find another Submissive who is willing to spend money on you from their own pass, or find a Dominant to spoil you - with the outfit being one of their choice, of course.

There are changing rooms available for customers to try on outfits and one may find that when they look at themselves in the mirrors of the store, their self-confidence spikes. It doesn’t matter how good or bad they may objectively look, they’ll feel like the hottest person to ever grace Duplicity’s streets. If said boost in confidence comes with feeling hot and bothered, well, the clerks won’t mind if the rooms are used for a quickie, so long as you’re, well, quick about it. They're expecting a lot of customers!

A competing store next door, Allure & Adorn, has decided to use this opportunity to try and lure customers into their own shop, boasting that their clothes are just as good - if not better! - than the ones offered next door. They will also accept the money passes that Submissives may have earned during the stamp rally, but their prices are a little less favorable than the boutique's. Their outfits, instead of their mirrors, seem to make those that wear them feel prone to showing off and indulging in exhibitionist activities. No fucking in the changing rooms here though - this store has class! Go out on the streets if you wish to indulge in that sort of behaviour.



» » » MOD & OOC NOTES



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:

All new arrivals on this TDM are 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 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!!

[ It's fine - he's not stupid. The situation in the Van was uncalled for, and he can't imagine how discomforting the situation would have been for someone like Natsume. Izuku manages to dash past the bus stop and onlookers who may have questioned what the Sub was doing with another holding him like that.

He stops short behind a tree and places Natsume onto his feet with marginal ease. The tension of the inner bus leaves him, along with some of that hotness, but he still feels a bit uneasy himself. ]


Are you okay?
depressku: (41)

[personal profile] depressku 2025-04-21 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
That's... [ Talk about walking into the late 1800s - ] I see, I guess I could see it as if I were working for another person's Hero Agency.

[ Simplifying it in his head, something he would have done anyway without speaking it out loud. The need to contextualize things into something easy to swallow, while the world around you seemed to be set on fire. ]

Are you sure? [ Izuku isn't one to use his hands for anything, but now with Caters in his own, he squeezes them gently. As if to say - hey, I'm .... With you. ] I don't think you need to spend any money on me, I'm fine with just this alone. Getting to help me out, is going to help me in the long run.

[reno expected to see a lot of people in this place, especially after already meeting Tseng on the bus, but he definitely didn't expect to see the puppy of all puppies himself, Zack Fair.

For a moment, Reno just opens his mouth and frowns, then blinks at the guy who definitely looks like Zack, same hair, same scar, ... same way too excited attitude.
But it can't be, right?
Zack was still one of their biggest failures, of not being on time before the Shinra army got to him, and it's honestly one of the things that sometimes still gnaws at him.
But to see him here, alive and well, it honestly confuses Reno for a moment.]


Yeah, basically just arrived, uh ...

[his eyes flicker around as if anything in their surrounding would give him any clues of why Zack is here, but of course, nothing does.]

What the fuck are you doing here??

[And he does notice the quick chance of emotions on Zack's face. That guy truly never learned to develop a poker face ..]

[Reno slips into a chair in front of the bar while he watches Rude work, and it almost feels like he is watching Rude back home working on some new bomb or another kind of explosive.
The same concentrated look, the same attention to detail and seriousness about his work as back then.
Still, it feels a little strange to have these practiced hand movements applied to bottles of alcohol, shakers and spoons rather than wires and TNT.

but he beams as he gets the drink and eagerly reaches for it, then slides off the bar stool and steers them right to one of the empty booths to find a new spot opposite his partner.]


Well then. Cheers to our reunion, I guess?

[he raises his glass, then takes a sip.]

Ya didn't promise too much, that's some good stuff. I'm impressed.
But now I need to know everything! What did I miss?!

[ The last thing Izuku expects is for someone who is nearly falling over to have the mind to fall into reactive combat instantly. Izuku's expertise in battle and fighting causes him to immediately act in turn. Though, even without Danger Sense, Izuku can tell this was either a mishap or just reactive - he watches as the other tries to gain their bearings again. His own face seeming to shimmer, mirroring the brilliance of those striking, glowing eyes that look back at him. ]

Amazing, are you trained in combat? I wonder what for, are you a Hero in your universe, or?
depressku: (d27)

[personal profile] depressku 2025-04-21 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
You're right, I am... Sorry about that. [ Izuku hears the voice from behind him. Taking in another deep breath, and rising to stand on both of his feet. He turns to see the person who spoke to him, and offers an apologetic bow. ] Are you okay to go?
beauman: (Default)

[personal profile] beauman 2025-04-21 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, you're right! Pardonne-moi, I was so curious I forgot my manners. A pleasure to meet you, Izuku! I am Rook Hunt, le Chasseur d'Amour~ ♥

[Rook flourishes his hat for a properly dramatic greeting; he may as well be sparkling for real, hmmm?]

Pomefiore is the dormitory I was sorted into, at school--we strive to emulate the Fairest Queen's legacy of tenacity and self-improvement in all things. She's studied and revered around the world as a role model to aspire to; it's said that she devoted her whole heart and soul to becoming the pinnacle of beauty in every possible way, no matter how difficult. Not just in appearance, but all aspects of life--physically, socially, intellectually, building a vast array of talents and skills, becoming a magnificent ruler.....

[Ah, Silver wasn’t expecting the questions, so it takes him a moment to parse the words. He’s far from slow, he’s simply caught off guard.]

No, I am a bodyguard for the Crown Prince of Briar Valley. A knight in training. Though he is not here, so I work as security in my Dominant’s business. [His head tilts quizzically.] You recognize someone trained in combat so easily, you must be equally skilled.
depressku: (d1)

[personal profile] depressku 2025-04-21 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I see... You come from a world where there are still Kings and Queens... It really sounds like something out of a game - sorry to compare it that way. It's really all I have to go off of; otherwise, it's just old history from the late Europeans. I didn't take a full course on that myself, so I wouldn't know too much about it. [ This was exciting, Izuku wasn't sure about the prospect of meeting people from other - worlds? Universes? However, he seems to be a bit more into the concept now. If anything, looking forward to learning what they do in their own worlds. ] So a school dedicated to beauty in every meaning of it? What a wonderful and cool place...
depressku: (c2)

[personal profile] depressku 2025-04-21 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Talking a bit loudly, ignoring everything around him - ]

A Prince? There's royalty here - really? [ Exciting, very cool - Izuku is excited. ] YOU'RE A KNIGHT? [ WAY TOO EXCITED!!! ] An actual, real Knight? I love Knights so much, European ones? They are so cool, kind of like Samurai with their Chivalry and honor, and then one step away from being Heroes in their own way! I love so many of them, I know the popular tales of King Arthur, The Song of Roland, Charlemagne and his Paladins - but I'm sure there are tons of other Knights! I have never heard of Briar Valley, though, so it must obviously be from a whole other world. It's so nice to meet you! My name - right!

[ Izuku awkwardly offers his hand, and beams. ]

My name is Izuku Midoriya; I was a teacher previously and taught at a school called UA. It's an academy where I help train the next generation of Heroes.

Ahahaha! Non, non, not quite. Night Raven College has dormitories dedicated to each of the Great Seven, to inspire generations of future mages to embody their examples and strive for greatness ourselves. They're all quite different in aesthetics and values alike, just as the Great Seven themselves and their achievements were; they say the Dark Mirror can see the nature of your soul, and assign you to where you truly belong.

[Should he be offended, being compared to a game? Naaaaaah, certainly not. That just speaks to a natural sense of wonder that game designers have to consciously strive to imitate, doesn't it? It's like getting lost in a good book or movie!]
depressku: (f60)

[personal profile] depressku 2025-04-21 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Mages!? Dark Mirror...? Oh... [ Izuku feels like a kid again, and some sense of hope and awe oddly flickers in the depths of his heart. ] I really wish I could see it all for myself.
argentisomnum: (quiet smile)

[personal profile] argentisomnum 2025-04-21 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[Silver is a bit taken aback at the verbal flood. He thought Idia could speak quickly when interested in something, but this newcomer is on a different level!]

There might be royalty here, but not my liege. Though I am glad he is safe from this place. I… do not recognize any of the names you know, but if we are from different worlds it would make sense.

[He takes the offered hand, his own strong and smoothly callused but still elegant. A warm little smile reaches his lips.]

My name is Silver. It’s a pleasure to meet you, Izuku. You say you are a teacher of heroes? There is such a school nearby to the one I attended before I came here. Royal Sword Academy and Night Raven College, respectively.
beauman: (Default)

[personal profile] beauman 2025-04-21 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
And I wish I could show you! I found my time there truly life-changing. I wonder how our curriculum would compare to what's taught in hero school?
depressku: (f92)

[personal profile] depressku 2025-04-21 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[ A strong firm, but gentle handshake is given. ]

This is true, I am also glad none of my friends ended up in a place like this... I would hate to see any of them here. [ In all honesty, his own heart would break, and he isn't sure he could handle it. With everything he is learning bit by bit, he almost wants to do whatever he can to be a Dominant so he can ensure their safety if one day that does happen. ] They both sound so magical and cool. I'd love to learn about it all sometime, if you ever want to talk about them.
depressku: (13)

[personal profile] depressku 2025-04-21 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
If you know it yourself, or would like to go over it sometime? I have a lot of notes - [ Izuku remembers a bit suddenly, turning to walk over to where his yellow backpack is placed. ] right my notes! [ He shifts and bends down to open the zipper of the bag, passing over the large suitcase within to pull out one of his lined notebooks. ] Not to bounce around topics, but if you do want to show me more about clothes, I'll be sure to take notes as you do. I also have some of my notebooks, which cover the curriculum I go over at our school.
argentisomnum: (thoughtful)

[personal profile] argentisomnum 2025-04-22 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
I would be happy to tell you about my world. Several of my schoolmates are here, if you wish to join us for a social gathering sometime. It’s good to make friends in this place, it can be difficult to be alone here, especially as a Submissive.

[Releasing the handshake, Silver reaches up to touch a lock of Izuku’s hair without really thinking about what he’s doing.]

I grew up training with someone whose hair reminds me of the forest, like yours. His is lighter, though, and his temperament far more abrasive than yours. I’m glad he’s not here, either. He would be overwhelmed.
depressku: (f71)

[personal profile] depressku 2025-04-22 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
It's good not to be alone, n-not that I am upset I am alone. I can handle my own; I just mean, I'm glad to hear that you aren't alone. [ Izuku is immediately flustered, and as his eyes dart away to try to salvage his statement. The hand that reaches to touch a lock of his hair. Catches him completely off guard, and his cheeks go red. ] E-Eh?

[ Izuku is attempting to process what to even say to that, had Silver brought up his friend and mentioned it between them because he was glad Izuku reminded him of them? Or, was there something else about this? What was the reason for toying with his hair? Izuku is fumbling and, unfortunately, doesn't even know what the right thing to say is at this moment in time. He flubs, but simply does not speak and clutches the bar while looking away. ]

I-I see. [ He manages. Trying not to look at anything around them either. ]

[personal profile] beauman 2025-04-22 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
I was almost finished with my third year, actually--all that would have been left before I graduated was a year of off-campus internships. I'm sure--oh!

[Rook can't help but burst out laughing, no less amused for being so apologetic.]

I did promise to help you find some clothes, didn't I? You might just be too engaging a conversationalist for your own good, Professor~ Shall we come back to those curriculums later, and get started?
depressku: (f59)

[personal profile] depressku 2025-04-22 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
[ An Almost graduate? That makes him a little sad, time stolen from them, it would seem. Either way, what Rook says does make him laugh, it was an interesting compliment considering how most people find him to be a bit too chatty otherwise. ]

I'm sure I have a few people who would want to disagree, but I'm glad you think so, and please, Izuku is just fine.
argentisomnum: (serious)

[personal profile] argentisomnum 2025-04-22 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
[The reaction confuses Silver for a moment, until he realizes his mistake. He slowly pulls his hand back, looking apologetic.]

Forgive me, I rarely initiated physical contact before I came here, and now it has become common for me toward my friends. I sometimes forget that such things are impolite to many strangers. If I offended you, I apologize.
virulentus: (14)

[personal profile] virulentus 2025-04-22 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
[ There's something almost funny about the fact that they seem to be perfectly compatible where sex is concerned while seemingly unable to carry on even the most basic conversation without sniping at each other. As she comes, cunt spasming around his cock, Wesker wonders a little hysterically whether he might someday come to tolerate her—even like her, outrageous as the idea may seem.

He fucks her mercilessly through her orgasm, caring not a whit for the mess that leaks onto his lap with each thrust. In fact, he thinks, pulling up the skirt of that stupidly modest dress to rid what they're doing of any last pretense of decency, he rather likes the mess. The sight of her—wet and swollen with arousal, greedily taking his cock—is what finally pushes him over the edge. He comes with a soft, bitten-off groan, cock twitching inside her as the clenching of her muscles coaxes out and prolongs his orgasm past what seem to be all reasonable limits.

When it's finally over, he lowers her slowly onto his lap, then slumps against the bus seat. ]
Well. [ He remembers that he's supposed to be angry at her, but he'll worry about that later. ] You're a very odd woman.
depressku: (d3)

[personal profile] depressku 2025-04-22 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
No, you are fine. [ Izuku still looks a bit sheepish, and the way Silver speaks so properly and with understanding. Helps him feel at ease in the moment. ] I'm not exactly used to interactions like this. I think it's amazing you can be that comfortable with strangers like that; I wouldn't be able to do it. [ Izuku considers looking at his hands for a moment. ] Thank you, though, for being kind. Your, Prince? I guess.. Yeah, he would be proud to know you are very considerate.

People often feel much the same about me, I fear. But none of them are here to take offense to either of us, are they?

[Rook claps his hands energetically. Time to focus!]

Now, then! The most important thing to know is that your clothes wear you at least as much as you wear your clothes. Absolutely nothing will look good on you unless you suit each other, no matter how beautiful your outfit may be in isolation. That means before you think about anything else, you need to make sure that what you pick helps make you comfortable, confident, and happy.
depressku: (f106)

[personal profile] depressku 2025-04-22 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
[ That surprises him, clothing wearing him? It was something he considered, if he thought about it more deeply, at least when it came to his hero suit design. ]

I see... I do feel most comfortable in dress pants and formal shirts. For me, it's about the respect and professionalism it brings when you wear them.
