pathemaooc | Test Drive #2

ARRIVAL: Your character wakes up in a temple completely naked except for the collar around their neck. Near the spot they wake up is a pile of clothing that is NOT what your character was wearing before they woke up. When they unfold the clothing they will find it's a toga and that there's a pair of sandals under it. Too bad, that's all there is. The sound of bells soon fills the temple, drowning out the noise of chatter and panic, drawing your attention to the statue in the center of the temple before a loud, booming voice fills your head:

Welcome, Honored Guests. I trust you’ve found everything easily enough. You may consider your Toga a token of my generosity and I trust the footwear will be more than sufficient;

Now I’m certain that you all have many questions, so perhaps you’ll permit me to explain.

I, Eros, Son of Ares and Aphrodite, God of Love and Sexual Desire, have brought you to Pathema for a very simple purpose. I offer you sanctuary from the trials and tribulations of your all too dreary existences and in return, I ask only one thing of you.

Your devotion.

I have seen how reluctant you creatures can be when it comes to matters of the flesh, and so I have ensured that all of you shall have the proper encouragement.

Surely you must be aware by now that each of you have been fitted with a collar. I wouldn’t try and remove them if I were you. Your petty magics, or force, will do little more than cause them to tighten I’m afraid.

Over a period of fourteen days, your collars will tighten. I’m told it’s a terribly uncomfortable experience and I wouldn’t suggest you push your limits but you mortals are rather a stubborn lot. Still, never let it be said that I didn’t try to warn you.

Now if at the end of those fourteen days, you have still refused to show your devotion to your God? You will simply cease to exist.

Oh, come now. I am not a cruel and capricious God. You’ll be permitted to return to your previous state of existence, for the mere price of something that you hold dear. A memory of those trivial times from before you were brought to your new home

Ah, yes. I do believe I have your attention now, don’t I?

But of course, how can you, mere peasants, show your God how much you adore him? I should think the answer is very simple, don’t you? I am the God of Sexual Desire after all.

SPRING FESTIVAL: Flowers are in bloom, birds are singing their love songs, and the residents of Pathéma are celebrating the arrival of Spring! Stalls of flowers can be found in the market place, fresh pressed juices and berries are sold and everyone feels more friendly than usual.

At night, bondfires are lit on the beach, and tables of food from your world are displayed alongside food from foreign places. Music is played all night long, and dancers pull strangers to join them, while the fire breathers put on a show for all to see. At midnight, fireworks light up the night skies before the party rages on until the sun comes up.

Blankets are available all over the beach, some giving more privacy than others...

NETWORK: Everyone is provided with a communication device that gives them access to an island-wide network. These can be used for so many things! Send pictures of the drunk guy at the bar, your boobs or whatever you want!!

WILDCARD: There are forests, mountains, marketplaces, all sorts of places to go and explore on the island. Ideas for settings can be found on the locations pages!

**TDM threads can be used as your sample in your application! It can also be considered in game canon if it is agreed on by all characters involved in said threads.

[Hey, she's a people person and if what people said was true about this place, it was most likely almost everyone was going to end up seeing them anyway.]

That's... kind of depressing. So we're back to ancient times.

[Good thing she can just just roll with things, mostly. Though, her eyebrows lift with that last bit.]

Hey! I'll have you know that I can put those girls on that shitty show to shame. Besides, isn't this like an everyone gone wild type thing?

[He laughed a bit, though the sound was a little choked because, let's face it, he wasn't the kind of guy who found himself happy most of the time. Amused, occasionally, but never really happy. Still, she had a sense of humor and wasn't bad looking so those were both pluses. Red hair might be nice but beggars couldn't be choosers.]

That's what they've told us. I'm not willing to buy it until I see it. Until I get some proof that this shit is going to kill me, I'm not going to just accept I have to fuck or die.

[That's one of the things that Camille is good at, getting along with people. Normally she's good at getting them to smile too and with this guy? Doesn't seem like she's lost it.

She flashes him a bright smile and shrugs her shoulders.]

I don't know if I'm wanting to test the whole death and losing memories thing. Sure, some of them are pretty shitty but they're mine.

Besides, I've done worse things than having to sleep with someone to survive.

[Logan has had to do a lot of shit to survive. He has more than a few wars under his belt, more blood on his claws than any one person should ever have. He doesn't know if this isn't just one more test, one more experiment but he doesn't think his conscience can get any guiltier at this point. The sex is willing, at least, and that's all he can ask for. The circumstances are bullshit.]

Still bullshit, though. No offense, sweetheart, but I would rather you want to sleep with me just because you wanted to and not because you were about to choke to death. Big difference in sex for fun and sex to survive. Not really a fan of the latter.

And who says I wouldn't?

[Seriously though. They had 14 days to make sure their collars were loose. There was no reason the sex had to turn into sex that was needed to survive.]

Unless you're planning on waiting out the entire two weeks... I on the other hand do not plan on waiting that long.

I'm not planning to wait it out. I just want to let the powers that be know that they can fuck off before I go and do the deed. That's all.

[Stubborn. It's what he does.]

Soooo, you're going to make a point by dying?

[Riiiight. Men, why so stubborn??]

You'd rather lose a memory then say, get to know me and have some fun?

[Snort. Yeah, that's definitely how it works.]

Maybe I can avoid losing the memory and have a little fun now? I'm not completely against it. I'm just pissed at the system.

Right now?

[Camille grins because, shit why not. He's older than what she normally goes for but he's still hot. He doesn't even look that much older than Fisher.]

I can go for some fun right about now. But I kinda like to know the names of my booty calls. Call me old fashioned but whatever. Just so you know, my name is Camille.

[He's kind of the definition of old-fashioned, as it is, so that suits him just fine.]

Logan. How long you been here, Camille?
