[The idea of receiving nudes as means of paging would be a lot more appealing if the first one he got wasn't from another twink. But, well, he did make a promise. So when Taako arrives in Nathan's new room--which will appear behind the next doorway he opens--it's...a community center? Nathan's lounging in a wheelchair, and he's already got a lit joint between his lips.]
[LISTEN, Nathan, the twink ratio is pretty high here. His odds weren't that great. Anyway, Taako has . . . already experienced this, sorry bud. Chuuya already grabbed him. Now Taako's just tryna go to bed and all these donguses want part of his evening?
But he's gotta give the weedman his due now.]
Well, you told me to meet you right after. Only trying to abide by your schedule, my dude.
[Thank god thank god thank god for the weedman. Immediately starting to take an exceedingly long drag of that, letting his eyes roll back in his head. Gross.]
You have no idea-- [He might have some idea.] Perks of the job?
[There are, like, folding chairs...the furniture leaves a bit to be desired. Nathan frowns.]
Well, look, I didn't plan on this being my room. You shoulda seen where I was staying when I ended up here in the first place with the rest of you lot. Big, beautiful hotel, yeah? Huge bed...real classy shit!
[Disbelieving. Just continuing! Keep following if u want, Nathan, Taako's not stopping you.]
Totally not fucking with you. I worked for a secretive organization that built and lived on a second moon. Use your brand new fancy powers of knowledge if you wanna test me.
[This time, Taako doesn't have to worry about magically getting transported anywhere! At some point before much time has passed, he'll turn a corner and find Nathan leaning up against the wall, hands in his pockets.]
So! Guessin I should start expecting a weekly appointment?
[Go ahead, play hard to get, you minx. Nathan takes on a leisurely pace.]
Different folks, different strokes. Somethin' about sexual energy charging up my newfound...what'dya call us the other day? NPCs? NPC abilities. Which are basically a lot like my regular abilities but super fucked up. The point is, all of you need to fuck to survive, and I gotta fuck to keep the ship from sinking. Not that I mean that literally, probably.
[Call him a minx out loud and he might jump his bones immediately? He'll fucking love that. Do it Nathan. Though he does actually slow down a little at that interesting information.]
Your regular abilities but super fucked up? Details, please. Details. Feels like that's a much better trade off than just some of your cheap skunk shit.
[Though that makes him at least unfold one arm from across his chest, resting his fingers against his own face, acting like he's curious where this is going.]
[Sauntering over though, to at least stand in front of Nathan - not touching him though, he knows what the fuck is up this week.]
There's a boner joke there, but I'm not gonna fish for it. [Actually, it's way too easy.] Some part of you is still stiff, right? [OH YUCK. Laughing at his own fucking joke?]
[Do you ever just feel like you're going to spontaneously combust because that's kind of where I am. And where Nathan is, but unexpectedly, because he's totally forgotten about the week's effect and all of a sudden Taako is just so fucking sexy.]
[YEAH GOD. In the interest of time, fade 2 black is good with me - Taako will just drag him somewhere with mildly more privacy to bang as quickly as possible. It's weed time babey.]
[He said urgent, but Nathan doesn't exactly look pressed when Taako joins him in the community center. He leans casually on the railing of his mezzanine, looking down from his hobo-style loft.]
[Is this the payback you get for Ghosting someone after horny week. Hmphing, because, he wanted his magic powers to be complimented by someone, but whatever.]
Alright. Just a test, tell me if you hear anything after this, okay? One, two, three: we've been given three options by the demons, but I highly suspect they're lying in an attempt to get us to choose a nasty bad end, so we're trying to come up with a plan to save our own asses, and maybe the asses of others along the way.

SUNDAY, WEEK 0;
Someone didn't waste any time.
no subject
But he's gotta give the weedman his due now.]
Well, you told me to meet you right after. Only trying to abide by your schedule, my dude.
[Holding . . . out . .. .. . . his hand..]
no subject
Don't say that like you weren't thirsty for it.
[Also when will Chuuya stop stealing his fucking thunder? Stop Chuuya 2019. Nathan holds out the joint. Friendship inspired by weed.]
no subject
Not thirsty for anything, bub.
[Holding out the end of the joint again though.]
Uh, got a light?
no subject
[He didn't have a lighter before, but now, he fishes in his pocket and produces one. After a moment, Taako's got a freshly lit joint! Hell yeah.]
no subject
You have no idea-- [He might have some idea.] Perks of the job?
no subject
Got my own private pocket dimension of home sweet shithole.
[It's sad that it's not much to look at, but.]
She may be a bit plain, but let me tell you, she is stocked.
no subject
[Is there like. Anywhere to sit, Nathan. Taako's just standing around awkwardly, puffing away, scuffing a foot at the floor.]
Chuuya's was better.
no subject
Well, look, I didn't plan on this being my room. You shoulda seen where I was staying when I ended up here in the first place with the rest of you lot. Big, beautiful hotel, yeah? Huge bed...real classy shit!
no subject
[Wandering around a bit, poking at the walls, poking at the floor, trying to figure out the magical nature of this place.]
I was on the moon before this.
no subject
I'll have you know I didn't have any trouble getting laid back home, because I'm beautiful and charming. Everyone here is just a fucking asshole.
[And he, the king of assholes. Nathan snorts.]
You're full of shit.
no subject
[Disbelieving. Just continuing! Keep following if u want, Nathan, Taako's not stopping you.]
Totally not fucking with you. I worked for a secretive organization that built and lived on a second moon. Use your brand new fancy powers of knowledge if you wanna test me.
no subject
[He slaps that disbelieving tone right back.]
What do you think I am, some kind of all-seeing wizard? Not exactly how this works, mate.
no subject
no subject
[He leans back in his wheelchair, getting comfortable.]
Spin me a yarn!
WEEK 2; MONDAY
So! Guessin I should start expecting a weekly appointment?
no subject
Confident! You're assuming I'm gonna go for this deal.
no subject
[He kicks off the wall and trots after Taako, catching up easily enough with his long legs.]
I've got something you want, I'm a beautiful specimen of human genetics, and you don't strike me as the type to appreciate a big fat fanny.
[That, and he clearly just is naturally confident. They have that in common.]
no subject
[What does that mean. Barely looking at him over his shoulder, acting like he's got much more important places to be.]
What do you get out of it. If I'm gonna do this, I'm not trading it for the shitty end of the stick.
no subject
Different folks, different strokes. Somethin' about sexual energy charging up my newfound...what'dya call us the other day? NPCs? NPC abilities. Which are basically a lot like my regular abilities but super fucked up. The point is, all of you need to fuck to survive, and I gotta fuck to keep the ship from sinking.

no subject
[He laughs, surprised. Maybe he will call him a minx out loud! Who knows!! There's STILL TIME!]
no subject
no subject
[Who has the power in this situation? Not even he knows anymore.]
no subject
[Turning to face him at least though, crossing his arms over his chest.]
no subject
[Is he taking the piss? Hard to say, but he sounds like he's having a good time...?]
Anyone ever told you that you're brilliant?
no subject
[Though that makes him at least unfold one arm from across his chest, resting his fingers against his own face, acting like he's curious where this is going.]
no subject
[Honestly at least Taako is hilarious even if Nathan doesn't understand half of the dungeons and dragons type shit he goes on about.]
I may be a wanker from time to time but I'm no stiff.
no subject
[Sauntering over though, to at least stand in front of Nathan - not touching him though, he knows what the fuck is up this week.]
There's a boner joke there, but I'm not gonna fish for it. [Actually, it's way too easy.] Some part of you is still stiff, right? [OH YUCK. Laughing at his own fucking joke?]
no subject
[STOP! BAD! BOTH OF THEM IN THE TRASH!!!]
no subject
[Reaching over to flick Nathan on the nose, knowing exactly what that's gonna do.]
Let's just get this over with, shall we?
no subject
Kiss me you minx!
[There it is.]
no subject
Doing that.]
no subject
no subject
WEEK 6, MONDAY
No weed on the other side?
no subject
Got it handled.
no subject
[He's impressed he's just also not in the mood, so he staunchly refuses to remark on them.]
no subject
Alright. Just a test, tell me if you hear anything after this, okay? One, two, three: we've been given three options by the demons, but I highly suspect they're lying in an attempt to get us to choose a nasty bad end, so we're trying to come up with a plan to save our own asses, and maybe the asses of others along the way.
Get anything?
no subject
...nasty asses?
no subject
Great. So, there's the baseline. The baseline is nothing.
Ugh, okay-- is there anything you can tell me about this ritual?
no subject
[There's nothing he can tell you that you don't already know.]
