______________

FESTIVAL OF RECREATION

From the second you leave the elevator, there are lights. Holographic, sparkling, twinkling lights that dance. Known as holoffs, these lights are in tune with the music, your heartbeat, your moods. They will swirl around you as you dance to a rhythm, turn various colors for your enjoyment or to show your mood. They will interact as you eat and dance and hopefully romance.

What? You thought the Festival of Recreation was about anything you do for fun?

It's this world's version of — well, not quite the Valentine's Day most of us celebrate (or don't). But it's less about love and more about, you know, sex. It's closer to Lupercalia than anything else. There's no animal sacrifice, but there are those that consider sexual relations during this particular festival to have better fertility outcomes. One of the non-Displaced passengers will likely have some study to talk to you about with the findings and how it's real.

They have split out the park so that those who don't wish to partake in any recreation can still enjoy themselves. Half of it is devoted to food and dancing, with the lights acting as a guide for that. There are lots of interactive dances and games, some with the fertility angle so you know... Mind your youngin's eyes. It's mostly PG-13 tops on this side.

The other half of the park, and you have to be over 18 to get into it, is more about drunken debauchery with comforts abound for those to partake. You can even find a temporary mate with some lovely Companions for your enjoyment. They are free to turn you down, and you must discuss desires and consent before, but everything is above board. This is considered an admirable profession, and the Companions come in all shapes and sizes.

No one on board considers this depraved. They consider it beautiful.

Wynonna exhales heavy and checks her breath before shrugging and heading toward a bar. That line usually works.

Nebula continues walking along, seemingly oblivious to the goings on. She's here as Quill's wingman. Of sorts. This stuff doesn't make her blush, even if she was physically capable of it, but she has no interest. She doesn't like to be touched. Or rather, touch is something that is usually with a fist or a weapon. It's not a pleasurable thing for Nebula.

	He is not a fan of being laughed at, and it takes him a quick moment to catch up to her. "Excuse me. What is your business laughing?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nebula glances down, expecting him to grab her arm, but he doesn't. She brings her gaze upward and whatever mirth there was before is gone. "You try too hard to impress people. It should be enough that you're Loki, the great Trickster." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: entrance. madetorule 2020-04-15 04:43 am UTC (link)
	This is not acceptable. It is borderline insulting, really (all the more insulting for the times it has been true). The idea that he tries too hard to accept these people is absurd. "I am Loki, and I do not seek to impress anyone." He glares. "What do you know anyway?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"More than you. Her body temperature had risen by a few dot point degrees." Nebula's cybernetic enhancements allowed some strange things, like the record of conversations and showing those conversations from her perspective as if her eye was a damn projector. One of Thanos's ways of keeping an eye on her. "And it doesn't take a genius to see that you were clearly turning on the charm for her."

She got it though. Nebula hated it when people pointed out her shortcomings, but she'd also come a long way from the days when she and Loki knew one another when in the clutches of Thanos. She could admit she was wrong. Except when she clearly wasn't. "You're here, instead of there, so I'm obviously right."

"There is a difference between turning on charm for someone already impressed, and attempting to impress someone, a distinction that may have escaped you," he snapped irritated. The nerve. The absolute nerve. And it wasn't as if he didn't expect to have sex today if he wanted it, but that he'd been lured away by this nonsense really, it was absurd, and he was as annoyed at himself as he was by her. "You're not right. Delusional is not right."

	He could be irritable about this, but there are more interesting things to do here and he will find them. (Reply to this) (Parent)
