week four | mingle

[marriagebroker]

Final week at the estate! Final week with your friends. Final week with your beaus. Time to make the most of it, everyone!

In fact, to celebrate this fact, today there is a cake. It's nothing special, just a nice little cake to enjoy with your morning coffee or throughout the day. Yay, cake!

And when Wei Wuxian arrives that morning, he is going to call out once again for everyone to join him, near the cake.

"Everyone, I have another announcement!"

Hell yeah, announcements.

[ There is cake! And from somewhere, Poppy has managed to procure a tube of icing.

Hovering over the cake for a moment, because it needs a bit of sprucing up, in her opinion. And when she steps back: tada!

CONGRATS ON THE SEX is now scrawled across the cake.

The cake is now for sex-havers only! If you haven't been in the Boom Boom Room she will slap your hand away, standing guard over it as she cheerfully eats a corner piece. ]

[researcherstory]

[ Haha. She doesn't like sweets, so Odile is perfectly happy to watch others despair. ]

[fireball]

[ You know what, Odile can be so valid for this one actually. That's her cool grandma! ]

[enscene]

I guess a setup like this wouldn't work on you, would it, Miss Odile?

[Like the problem is the fact that it's a cake trap and Odile doesn't like sweets, not the fact that it's an incredibly obvious sex cake bait trap, which Furina is also aware of. She knows way too many cops for that.]

[makes direct eye contact with her]

[as he picks up the cake knife]

[fireball]

[ Cheerfully, returning the direct eye contact: ] Not until you've nailed your man!

[ A beat. ]

Or until he nails you!

[beatmatching]

[ well. luka has been looking at sweets more in the last week or so. so he spots the cake and gives it a long look.

...maybe he can have a piece a real housewives of orange county would eat? he'll move to cut himself the most anemic slice without a word. ]

[fireball]

[ He did go in with Maya earlier, soooo... an approving nod. Have at it, you! ]

[irreversal]

[ Poppy....... (affectionate)

Shoko cuts herself a slice and - much like their introduction - just plops it onto Poppy's plate to join her first slice. ]

What's your goal with this, hm..?

[fireball]

[ Beams up at Shoko. She knew this would happen, but her goal was actually not to get more cake. That's just a neat little bonus! ]

More people need to go get laid.

[ and by people she means, looking around for wherever Romura are, ]

[crimsin]

[ FUCK YEAH CAKE. Nico has drifted in from somewhere this morning and scoops up a slice pretty much instantly. ]

I see what you are doing here.

[ Amused. ]

[fireball]

[ Hell yeah Nico!! ]

A worthy endeavour, if I do say so myself.

[ She is very proud of herself. And also of Nico. ]

[gamboler]

[ Approaching to cut himself a slice without hesitation. ]

Is this your doing, Poppy? Unusual flex, but I respect it.

[ He sees that cake she's eating, good for her!! ]

[fireball]

[ It's a fantastic flex. The best flex. She beams up at him. ]

Why thank you. It just tastes a little sweeter, you know?

[ Something non-sex-havers certainly would not know, ]

[phenomerom]

[ He's just here for his morning coffee??? Rom stands off to the side nursing his cup, making no move for the cake himself, watching the shenanigans for a few moments before commenting, ]

I wasn't aware it was something that merited a congratulatory cake?

[fireball]

[ Just. Smiling. ]

Of course you wouldn't know. But there's one way you can find out~

[reverso]

[Help. This makes him laugh when he spies what she's written.]

There's a cake for that now?

[Birthdays, anniversaries, etc. And... sex, apparently?]

[fireball]

There's a cake for everything now.

[ nodnod. ]

But this one is the most important, don't you think?

Re: 🍰

[nrangel]

[ Cutting herself off a piece of cake. Thanks, don't mind if she does. Poppy knows because she told her, but how many others do when her own bbr trip happened so later into the night when people were drinking heavily? ]

[beatmatching]

[ luka does because he doesn't drink! the benefits to being a teetotaler~

he spots her as he is carefully sectioning his very tiny cake slice into exactly two forkfuls. ]

Is that what you wanted? [ not the cake obviously, but the cake stands in for it so it works either way. ]

[ordimame]

[someone did not partake in party shenanigans because he was too busy BROODING, so--]

Tell me if it's good or not, since I'm apparently not allowed to have any.

[irreversal]

[ Good for you, Serpilia!! Though Shoko definitely quirks a brow because she's curious. ]

Heh. Does that explain why you've been in a better mood?

[embellwish]

Keeping up with everyone's private affairs, are you...?

[ So scandalous! Poppy is keeping heads or tails on everybody fuckin.... ]

I didn't know you were interested in that kind of thing, sweetheart....

[anathemaw]

[ he u-turns as soon as he gets a glimpse of what she's written on the cake. so she's a weird pervert, too... ]

[scooptimistic]

... Uh. So is this you staking your claim, or...

[ ????? ]
