When: Throughout February
Where: Aefenglom
What: Stealing shit, making some cash, clothing mishaps, and full moon shenanigans.
Warnings: Slight body horror, will update if anything else changes

kitchenware shop: OTA

[ lance is here staring at all the kitchenware. does he look like he's here to shop? not particularly. it looks more like...he's admiring all the silverware, actually. they're spick and span, glimmering in the light...

they're perfect. lance can't resist them. he doesn't know why, but he can't look away. the shopkeeper's hands seem tied with customers, so now is the perfect time for lance to do his thing.

lance looks from side to side, and when he thinks nobody's looking, he picks up a spoon and starts to slide it into his pants pocket. ]

felicitous fancies: OTA

[ lance needs money. and what better way to make money than to do speed dating for a second time!!! ...he's not exactly looking forward to it 100%, because he met some real weird people there, but it's a fast and easy way to make some cash to buy some necessities. and lord knows he desperately needs those.

so he's here at the brothel, trying not to blush at all the pretty ladies around -- he's here to make money. he gets paired up with someone who's also here to make some quick cash, and he leans back on his chair, taking in a deep breath. his cheeks are still pretty red, but he thinks focusing on his partner will (or will not) make things a little easier. he cracks a smile at whoever's sitting across of him. ]

Hey! Having a good night so far?

clothes shopping: OTA

[ lance can also be found doing some clothes shopping. he's gotta stock up on outfits, after all -- casual ones on lazy days, stuff to wear to bed, clothes to wear on any potential dates... he managed to grab a few pieces with keith and soren, somehow, despite not having money on him -- but he's back at it again with actual currency this time.

lance finds a nice shirt that he opts to try on. he looks pretty excited about his choice, too, and he heads to the fitting room to try it on.

a few moments pass, and then suddenly, there's the sound of something tearing along with a panicked shriek from the fitting room area. ]

Hieeeeeee!

the worst solution ever: open to voltron house + any visitors, night of the full moon

[ so. if you were hoping to use the bathroom downstairs closest to the entrance to the voltron house, you're out of luck.

those who move closer to the bathroom will start to hear the sounds of water sloshing around accompanied by a deep, heavy sigh. the lights are on, the door is open -- seems like someone didn't care much about privacy. if anyone dares to peek in, they'll see no one other than lance himself, sitting in the tub, looking rather...frazzled. worried about something. no, he is not wearing pants, but the suds in the tub are pretty high so you wouldn't be able to tell.

when he sees someone nearby, he'll lift his head up and look at the newcomer before holding his hand out to say "stop" before they can get any closer. }

I'm not gonna say no to company, but stay right where you are and don't come any closer!

[ unless you want to see him with no pants on????????? ]

under the sea: OTA (full moon)

[ those who are near the ocean at some point during the full moon will see a shark-like tail peeking out of the water in the shallows. quickly, it goes under -- and then lance's head and shoulders pop out of the water.. his eyes have gone dark, pupils bright blue. his eyes narrow at whoever approaches, and he snarls a little, teeth sharp. he doesn't look like he's about to attack, but he certainly doesn't look happy to have company. ]

What're you looking at?

wildcard

[ open to anything! if you'd like to plot something feel free to contact me at amplitude ! ]

Kitchen Ware

[sneaksweet]

[Sometimes when you live with one other dude in a mansion you understand somebody's gotta learn how to cook. Which means he's walking into the isle and seeing... a guy just try to pocket a spoon?]

You should pay for that.

[loverboi]

[ you know, this is fair. not even lance knows why the compulsion to steal this is so strong. he looks over at the guy addressing him and scratches the back of his head, looking sheepish. ]

What? I don't know what you're talking about! Can't a guy just admire some spoons in peace?

[sneaksweet]

[He's not here to play games with a stranger, so he'll just say it.]

's a spoon in your pocket.

[loverboi]

....Psh, naaaaw, of course there isn't!

[ just gonna start slowly stepping away now.... ]

Aaanyway, I'm done looking at the fancy silverware, so I'm gonna be on my way....

[sneaksweet]

[He's about to make it very difficult to move away, because Juza's following him step for step.]

I literally watched you pocket it.

under the sea

[stopfen]

Not you.

[The new fae's wandering had brought her here. To stand in the sand where she could see the moon reflected on the water, gaze up at it in the sky. Look at the stars.

Mikasa didn't even turn her head to look down at him in the water. Too large black eyes, still looking at the sky.]

[loverboi]

[ wow!! lance rolls his eyes, but he follows her gaze, up towards the sky. he shifts a little, the tips of his tail peeking out from under the water. ]

Admiring the stars?

[stopfen]

It's so bright.

[Something was missing though. Not that she knew what. Something that was enough to make her worry but not panic.]

[loverboi]

...Well, yeah. They're stars. ... Have you never seen stars before?

[ lance...let her live her life ]

under the sea

[plasticasshole]

[What Lance doesn't know is that Connor is behind him, his own glowing blue eyes focused on that shark tail. He approaches, taps Lance on the tip of his tail, and then playfully darts away again.]

Good to see you again.

[loverboi]

[ he feels the tap on his tail, and then the sudden rush of someone swimming away. lance turns his head towards the source -- behind him -- and sees connor. ]

Hey, man. [ he gives him a toothy smirk, turning his body towards him. ]

You were right about me being a merrow. Feels pretty good, not gonna lie.

[plasticasshole]

[Connor nods, looking Lance over properly. Looks like he's a shark of some kind.]

I'm glad you made it to the water before the full moons. The first time I grew a tail, I was in the middle of the street.

[It hadn't been much fun, though admittedly now that he looks back on it he can at least find amusement in it.]

sorry for the late tag!

[loverboi]

Yeah?

[ that...sounds bad. ]

How'd you end up dealing with that?

Worst solution ever with a bit of a wildcard twist

[quintessent]

[They've worked out a system, so to speak. Lance needed help an Allura needed to not see him butt-naked. One of those things was more important than the other. Typically this might be the sort of thing she would leave to the boys to handle on their own, but Keith hasn't been around much as the full moon has been approaching and Allura isn't about to sit back and make Shiro do the work just because of a little propriety.

So, with her eyes locked on something outside the door, she knocks gently. Not daring to look inside until Lance has confirmed the important... bits are secured under the washcloth she'd given him.]

Lance, I found the salt.

oh boy...

[loverboi]

[ look, the suds are at least covering him up well enough so allura doesn't have to be met with a butt-naked lance when she enters the bathroom. but she did, indeed, give him a washcloth, so he will use that washcloth to further conceal his....you know.

when he hears her knock, he clears his throat. ]

Yeah, come in!

[ it's safe, promise. ]

[quintessent]

[Forgive her if she still believes in a sense of modesty here. When he gives the a-ok, she starts into the room. From far away it's mostly safe, as Lance is protected by much of the sides of the bathtub, but still she makes a very specific point not to stare, keeping her eyes on the floor, the wall, anything.]

I'm not sure if it will be enough but...

[Finally she reaches the rim of the tub, and here she finally meets his eyes (and nowhere else.) There's a chair already next to the tub, given how long Lance has beenn in here, and she takes a seat.]

How are you feeling?

[loverboi]

[ thanks allura. he appreciates that you aren't staring!! for as much bravado as he has with women, lance is a shy boy and does not want the princess to look at him funny. he looks up at her and lets out a sigh. there's a window high up that gives him a clear view of the sky. ]

I don't really feel anything yet? Other than the usual weird monster stuff.

[ and...is it just allura, or are lance's eyes now shifting up to stare at her tiara? ]

I have no idea what to expect.

clothes shopping

[synchroswim]

<sub>[Lance wasn't the only one out shopping today. Having only one coat (with a shady history at that) really was a sign that he needed something else, but the problem was where to even start.

He doesn't get to dwell on the pile of shirts in his arms for very long though, because when he hears a mysterious scream from one of the dressing rooms? Demyx fumbles the armful down and screams himself.]</sub>

I didn't do it! What's going on!?

[loverboi]

[ oh that sure is one of the employees isn't it -- at least that's what lance thinks??? lordy he's in for it, but he can't expose himself just yet!!

from the fitting room, he hesitantly calls back: ]

N-Nothing! Just, uh, stubbed my toe on the wall! You know how that goes!

[ TOTALLY CONVINCING. ]

[synchroswim]

The wall? Dude, did you kick it?

_{[With the immediate "threat" gone, he stoops to start picking up the clothes he just sort of. Yeeted directly into the ground.]}

Actually, should I get one of the people who works here? They've probably got like... A first aid kit or somethin' if you whacked it real bad!

[loverboi]

NO-! No, don't get someone who works here, trust me.

[ the response is immediate and frantic. that would be his worst nightmare, don't do it to him buddy.

but...since it seems like he doesn't work here... ]

...If you wanna see how bad the damage is, get closer.

[ lance you can't just invite someone to a fitting room-- ]

clothes shopping!

[reluctantradiance]

[ Lance is not the only one out shopping for clothes. Yuma is browsing more than anything for now - he's perfectly happy with his current attire for now - when he hears...is that Lance? He's only met him once before, but that sounds like it might be Lance. Even if it isn't, he can't just ignore someone yelling like that. ]

H-Hey, what happened? What's wrong?!

[ He won't come in just yet, it's a dressing room after all. But still...! ]

[loverboi]

[ nonono. this is bad. the fabric tearing was pretty loud and audible, and lance is scrubbing his face in the dressing room when he hears someone call out to him. a worker, maybe? quiznak, he's in trouble -- no, wait. he recognizes that voice from somewhere.

lance peeks out and... ]

Yuma?

[ oh thank goodness it's someone he actually likes. he makes a motion for him to come closer (lance is wearing pants, don't worry), and then he'll see...

what looks like a very expensive-looking shirt with a giant grey fin sticking out of it. lance's voice is quiet when he speaks again but no less filled with agony. ]

Dude. Monster transformations suck.

[reluctantradiance]

Yeah, it's me. Lance, right?

[ He's almost relieved. Almost. Thus far it seems like Lance hasn't been hurt, but that doesn't ease Yuma's concern just yet. When Lance waves him over, Yuma takes a closer look and...

Oh. That...okay, yeah, no wonder there was such a racket. His eyes go wide for a moment, and he can't help a wince. ]

Are you okay? That sounded like it was pretty painful...

[ Yuma is careful to keep his voice down so he doesn't draw attention; that's the last thing Lance needs right now. Luckily for Yuma, his own changes are much more subtle, but who knows how long that luck will last. ]

[loverboi]

[ YEAH. yeah. the fin, at least, seems to start shrinking in size. kind of like it just popped out and is now retracting back into lance's body? weird. but he looks back at the tear and runs his hands down his face. ]

Okay, it wasn't that painful. You know what hurts more? How much this is gonna hurt my wallet.

[ because he's going to have to pay for this, and he barely has any cunes left to spare. ]

Definitely was not expecting this.
