TEST DRIVE MEME #29
Arrival
"Judgement has come upon you. God has deemed you worthy of Hell. But don't worry, it can still be undone," comes a soothing voice that echoes all around you. The voice promises comfort, hope even.
It may seem like a nightmare at first, despite all of that. Full of hellfire nipping at your skin and a sensation of being pulled down no matter how much you struggle or cry for help. Wretched, unseen hands pull at you, grip tight at your body, tighten on your throat, skeletal fingers grab at your face, slide in your mouth and jab at your eyes as they struggle for purchase. It feels like for a moment, they may snap your neck as they tug and pull. The more you resist, the more phantom hands are added to your struggling body.
It feels like they could tear you apart if you let them. The only thing to do is to let go and stop fighting.
And so you do.
Darkness and nothingness consumes you for a second, but only a second.
Initially, everyone opens their eyes to a long, dark corridor made of stone. They find themselves in what appears to be a long queue with other sinners, palm bloody.
Characters find their bodies feel heavy and stiff, bruised with odd hand prints here and there that they received during their journey down below. A massive headache throbs behind their temples. They are urged forward to take a numbered ticket and wait their turn in the long line. As they're ushered forward through the corridor, their first stop will be to see Lilith, standing outside her office.
The woman in a smart suit and a friendly smile steps forward to greet sinners one by one. "I'm sorry for your rough landing. We've never gotten it quite as smooth as it was in the past. Please, let me see your hand--"
Once she has the sinner's hand, there's the warm, almost electric touch of magic that soothes away the aches and pains, heals the wound left behind on each sinner's palm. Lilith looks satisfied with her work and gives a nod. "There, all better. Please take your care package and continue on until you reach the stairs."
On their way out, sinners receive their 'package', a contract detailing all sins committed. If they look at the list closely enough they'll notice it's written with their blood. That explains the palm wound then. It's an old piece of parchment despite the freshly written letters upon it. They will also receive a slightly more modern smart phone. Think early generation Android and a pamphlet made by other sinners during their stay here with useful tips.
After that, sinners will be ushered on to a set of stairs where a guard waits. "Welcome to Penance," the demon says gruffly before motioning them on without an ounce of courtesy. "Don't hold up the line."
They seem to go on and wind forever, but eventually, they come upon what appears to be a lobby of a hotel. Once there, they will notice several shops and other areas around the front desk.
The demon at the front desk looks rather bored, but when sinners approach? He seems to snap to attention to offer whatever help they might need of him. He will at least direct to food or rooms to rest their wary bodies, or recommend sights to see around the hotel.
.
Stand Your Ground The chill in the air is still hanging in there, biting into skin as the fog from God's divine punishment begins to fade, and with it, the twisted monsters and hallucinations that it brought in. Hallucinations stop (but may not be forgotten), injuries from tortures are healed (but again, may leave their imprint anyway), and everyone starts to slowly filter back into Penance proper. The animals are brought back to the stables and the spiders return to their nests they made within the hotel (and out, thanks to the kind sinners who helped relocate them!)
So do try not to worry if you see chihuahua sized spiders hanging around everywhere. They are quite docile! And a lot of sinners and demons seem to want to adopt the little guys as pets.
Lilith is still sporting injuries from the previous event, but she's dressed sharp and professional again, reassuring everyone that they did the best they could and it's time for a break while they wait for Lucifer's grand return to Hell. Something remains haunted in her eyes, however...
Ah, well, don't worry about it, new arrivals! It likely means nothing. Times have just been hard as of late.
Lucifer is still nowhere in sight, but Lilith announces it's time for a proper celebration as a reward for everyone's perseverance and aiding others lately. And look... it just happens to be close to that mortal holiday, Halloween!
Despite the husk of a community the fog revealed, Penance is once again decorated and vibrant in no time. Halloween decorations litter the streets and the hotel, as well as neighboring establishments. There are caramel apples being passed out freely throughout the hotel, as well as cider and other candies that inspire good moods.
Everyone seems very eager to just forget the last punishment ever even happened... sinners and demons alike. Whispers around the community show plainly that everyone is worried, hushed murmurs of God and big plans on the horizon making the rounds, but... best to not even pay attention to that. Especially any talk of Barbas possibly returning that are on the tongues of the demons who look worn out and exhausted at the mere thought. It's just simple paranoia, surely.
Now, instead get ready for the festivities!
Everyone will receive an invitation on their devices to go to the pumpkin patch within the community. It's hard to miss with its creepy scarecrows that seem to almost follow those who enter and the mischievous little demons that like to sneak up and try to smash all the pumpkins... there's also a new addition to it! A few concession stands just outside the patch, as well as what looks to be a corn maze.
Not just any corn maze either, but a spooky, haunted one that sinners will be encouraged to participate in, if they so choose! There are tons of props and costumes for all those willing to frighten their fellow sinners as they make the trek through the maze! Jump out and spook a friend or put on a performance that's truly spine-chilling!
Once inside, sinners will find themselves chased (good-naturedly) by demons and others dressed in over the top Halloween costumes ranging from creepy dolls to axe murderers to cartoonish Lucifers. For once, while creepy in parts, it really does feel like a traditional haunted attraction, done in good will for a bit of fun. No actual torture will be happening this time around!
Now, what's in the center of the maze? Well, a party of course. A Halloween bash awaits those who make it to the center of the maze that not only includes costumes, many versions of the song Monster Mash, but party drugs and alcohol galore... all with a Halloween twist. Drugs come wrapped up like little candies, and drinks are all candy flavored for the most part.
But that's not all! The succubi are out in full force, in skimpy mad scientist uniforms and test tube drinks they're handing out to all who would dare! These drinks, they'll warn, will cause some... interesting side-effects. These include:
It should also be noted that the succubi and incubi have also claimed a patch of the corn maze all their own. Venturing in, sinners will be hit with overwhelming aphrodisiacs that may include heat-like effects. More information can be found in the Follow Me Down prompt!
When it comes time for the party to wind down, guests will have to (perhaps drunkenly) navigate their way back to the pumpkin patch. It will be dark out by this point, an eerie mist in the air that hopefully won't bring back too many bad memories for some...
There won't be time to reminisce when the scarecrows seem to be quite alive and may move eerily closer every time a sinner's eyes stray away or even blink. Some may begin to downright chase sinners and demons alike right back to their homes. It's probably just a fun little Halloween prank, so don't worry about it! Like so many other odd things happening lately...
Those who aren't interested in braving a pumpkin patch or corn maze may instead opt to visit the local movie theatre for a horror movie marathon with what may contain familiar favorites as well as some very traumatizing cinema clearly meant for demonic kind. These may leave certain sinners with nightmares for a few days... or they may find them oddly enjoyable, if they're already beginning to show demonic traits. Whatever the case, at least there's limitless caramel corn on offer!
Additionally, at Helluva Cup, there's also a lot of baked treats being offered up in an expansive display... one that Bean, the hell rat is even dressed up for! Sporting a little bat costume for the festivities, he's placed as a centerpiece in the middle of the table of treats. Be careful of the very real biting that may happen for trying to take food the rat has deemed his! Also be careful, there will be consequences should anyone try to hurt the owner's beloved pet (and possible rewards for anyone who stands up for the little guy in the form of special drinks or a heartfelt thanks). It's probably for the best to just ignore the filthy rodent and steal food when you can... the treats do seem to inspire a good mood, so sinners may be encouraged to overindulge a little bit! Or a lot. They're so good, it's like they're addictive.
Helluva cup isn't responsible if anyone eats until they get sick, of course...
Reach Up High The local demons have a unique take on trick or treat this round! While they want to give their favorite mortal sinners something of a break, they all know full and well God has to be appeased and the wary get very few breaks!
So they will be selecting sinners at random and insisting they go from room to room knocking on doors. Their task? To offer to give a treat or give a hand. Don't worry! In this case, no actual hands will be given (unless you're into that sort of thing...), but they will have to help a fellow sinner or demon with a task of their choosing. This can range from something as mild as cleaning the toilet to finding a pet lost in the chaos of all that's happened lately, to cooking them a meal, it doesn't particularly matter! Your only limitations would be your imagination!
If the person at the door chooses a treat, sinners may have to get inventive about what they offer. Treats may come in the form of treating someone to unexpected entertainment or a talent you possess, or to just be exceptionally delightful. Of course, if a sinner wants to offer an item on their person or less... innocent treats, they are free to do so as well.
To deny anyone's offer means that the sinner has failed and a sin will not be taken from their list.
Follow Me Down WARNINGS: humiliation, public sex, a/b/o themes, potential dub-con
As mentioned, the incubi and succubi have carved out a little section of the corn maze all their own. Just off to the side of the main event, those who venture in will be treated to overwhelming aphrodisiacs hanging in the air like a very sweet perfume, more risque performances and costumes, and areas where plush cushions have been laid out for... other activities.
The succubi are still serving their drinks, but there are also decadent chocolates for the taking, as well as a chocolate fountain surrounded by fresh fruits for dipping.
There's been a makeshift stage made for an impromptu costume contest where sinners and demons can cheer for sexiest costume or encourage the removal of said outfit. There's also a helpful collection of risque costumes available for those who want to slip out of their boring old zombie or mummy look! You never know when that costume may start to influence your behavior at this sort of party, so you may want to adopt the least bitey costume there is...
Additionally, especially those who took the transformation potions, may begin to experience signs of heat or rut. They will begin to want to breed uncontrollably, and may adopt certain characteristics of either alpha or omega.
Alpha traits include enhanced aggression, the urge to claim or dominate those they want to breed with, uncontrollable sexual urges, and the ability to smell when someone close by is in heat. It may also include the ability to knot a partner, but not always. Omega traits include the need to be bred, increased body heat that may be uncomfortably intense, potential slickness as the body prepares for the experience, and the urge to present oneself to a suitable partner.Like alphas, omegas can smell a proper partner close by. The intense urge to be claimed or marked may also be present.
Both parties will experience reduced recovery time and increased stamina.
These urges will last until mating has been completed (it may take several rounds) or until the next morning, whichever comes first.
Those who aren't influenced by those urges will still find plenty of ways to have a fun time if they so choose, however! No need to fret. There's still drinking, dancing, and plenty of adult entertainment to be had.
[While pregnancy of the traditional kind isn't possible in Penance, there may be an upcoming opportunity to participate in a body horror and pregnancy-related twist coming up. As a current or future player, if you're interested in this, please include your name here with which role you participated in this prompt with, as well as your partner's name. Remember, omegas will be the ones experiencing the potential pregnancy, no matter their gender!]

It may seem like a nightmare at first, despite all of that. Full of hellfire nipping at your skin and a sensation of being pulled down no matter how much you struggle or cry for help. Wretched, unseen hands pull at you, grip tight at your body, tighten on your throat, skeletal fingers grab at your face, slide in your mouth and jab at your eyes as they struggle for purchase. It feels like for a moment, they may snap your neck as they tug and pull. The more you resist, the more phantom hands are added to your struggling body.
It feels like they could tear you apart if you let them. The only thing to do is to let go and stop fighting.

Red - may cause a surge of possessiveness towards people or items that may be unexpectedly strong. How dare they look at anyone else? Or what nerve, that guy touching what is obviously yours.All effects may last anywhere from a couple hours to a full day, so it's recommended that all sinners use caution when testing these out! Additionally, multiple drinks may be consumed for a double whammy of effects for the truly adventurous.
Blue - may cause a surge of courage and bravery, giving the sinner the nerve to do something they may not normally do.
Green - may make the drinker feel more truthful and unable to tell a lie. What an uncomfortable predicament to be in when someone asks if their costume flatters them or not...
Black - may cause physical transformations of the monstrous variety. Tentacles or demonic features, even animal features. Oh my!
Pink - may cause other physical transformations, which may include sex or age swapping.
Orange - may cause one to feel inferior or superior to those around them. They may be inclined to let others know just how good they are, or shrink away to hide while they deal with the deep shame of their existence.
It should also be noted that the succubi and incubi have also claimed a patch of the corn maze all their own. Venturing in, sinners will be hit with overwhelming aphrodisiacs that may include heat-like effects. More information can be found in the Follow Me Down prompt!

no subject
But he's never done anything quite like this. Not just with a man. With someone older, more experienced. Things are different with Rodriguez. Not better, just different.
He keeps one arm wrapped tight around Gabe's back, his other hand wrapping aound his waist, then dragging up his side until he slides it around his back, pulling him in close with both hands. Gabe's good. Starting off slow, then slowly ramping up until Mal's rocking against him with every stroke. Not quite hard or fast enough to finish him off. Just on the edge.
As for Mal, he's just trying to hold out as best he can. He'd said he'd had stamina and he's eager to prove it. Besides, he's not ready for this to be done yet. Not nearly. But the deep breaths he's trying to take are starting to stutter, the occasional tiny gasp as he bites back a whimper. When Gabe checks in, there's a pause, and then a jerky nod. It takes him another second to force out an answer. ]
Y-yeah.
[ He squeezes Gabe a little closer, letting his nails drag down his back. ]
Yeah, 's - 's fuckin good.
[ The words are said in a rush, as though he's fighting to get them out before he loses the ability to speak again. ]
no subject
Yeah, Gabe thinks. Yeah, he could do this for a while.
He keeps it up. Works Mal steadily, inching up pace and pressure. Shifting a little to play with his balls, see what it gets him. How Mal reacts. That’s always been the fun part with someone new. Figuring out what they like, what makes them lose it. ]
Like this?
[ Gabe presses a softer kiss to Mal’s neck. Gentling it a bit. If Mal feels like he’s going to come, then Gabe will back off. Pinch it off. But until then, they’ve got plenty of time to play it out. Plenty of ways, too.
He shifts his grip, pressing his thumb back against Mal’s perineum. Seeing what that gets him, too. ]
Or you want more?
[ Been a while since Gabe’s done it like this. Usually he lets strangers manhandle him and calls it a night. But this is good, too. ]
no subject
Besides, the longer he holds out, the better it feels. He focuses on his breathing, on centering himself, letting the waves of sensation ride over him without overwhelming him. But his breath hitches when Gabe curls his fingers around his balls, a little gasp that would definitely be embarrassing under any other circumstances. And when he presses his thumb lower, Mal moans, dropping his head to press against Gabe's shoulder and rocking against him.
He does want more. He does. But he can't take any more, not yet. ]
S-stop -
[ So much for pride. He'd be tapping out if he knew the gesture. Instead, one hand shifts to grab Gabe's bicep, not quite pushing him away, just giving him a signal. Grounding himself. ]
Stop, I can't -
no subject
[ Gabe hums a little, stilling his hand. He presses a softer kiss to Mal’s throat. ]
Too much?
no subject
He just stays silent and unmoving for a second, making sure he's not going to come after all, and then he shudders, bowing his head to mouth gently at Gabe's neck in return. And then up and along his jawline, a slow trail, until he's kissing him again. Slow and gentle this time, almost sweet. ]
Not too much.
[ Just enough, maybe. ]
no subject
Somehow, he wasn’t expecting that.
He smooths his hand up Mal’s back. ]
You want to come?
no subject
But maybe it's something in the air, or the way Gabe had described drawing it out, making it last. Maybe it's just that he's always been vigilant about making sure his partner comes first. He's not an asshole, after all.
Whatever it is, Mal finds himself shaking his head, one hand slipping down from Gabe's back to slide between their bodies. He wraps it gently but firmly around Gabe's cock. Not doing anything. Just holding him, for now. ]
Wanna make you feel good.
no subject
Yeah, that feels good. Everything does right now. ]
Shit, Mal.
[ Gabe huffs a little, breathing out slow to steady himself. ]
You wanna fuck me? You want me to fuck you?
no subject
Want what you want.
[ He means it. Gabe's asked Mal what he wants to do, more than once. And then given it to him. Made him feel amazing. He wants to return the favor.
He runs his free hand across Gabe's back to his arm, running his palm up and down his biceps. With his other hand, he squeezes him. Once. He drops his head to nuzzle at Gabe's neck, just below his ear, murmuring againist his skin. ]
You haven't said.
no subject
Hell changed that, in some ways. Maybe it was inevitable with the proximity, with how the demons like to force things. Keep it all interesting. But it was a choice, just like this is. And there are ways they could play it.
Gabe makes a low sound, rocking into Mal’s hand, but the gesture doesn’t repeat. Fleeting pleasure when he wants more. He can feel the words shivering against his neck.
Fuck, that’s good. Gabe sighs again, then leans in to kiss Mal on the mouth. He lets it deepen. Lets it drag. ]
Then fuck me. You know how?
[ Doesn’t matter. Gabe does. ]
no subject
He shakes his head. He can be reckless and cocky, but not about something like this. Not when it means someone could get hurt. ]
Done it with girls.
[ Obviously. He reaches up to cup Gabe's face in both hands, returning the kiss. ]
I can learn.
no subject
Not that different. And you learn quick.
[ It’s fun. He grins, running his fingers along Mal’s side. Then he leans in close so he can suck a mark into Mal’s neck. Just because he fucking can. ]
Think about how you want me. Hmm?
no subject
His neck's going to be a mess of marks and bruises tomorrow, but it never occurs to him to care. Instead he bends down to suck a mark of his own into Gabe's neck, going slow, letting himself think and imagine. Decide what he wants most. ]
On your back.
[ That'll work, right? And he'll still be able to see Gabe's face, to hear him, to reach and touch him all over. He pulls back a little, already putting his hands on Gabe's shoulders to gently push him down. ]
Yeah?
no subject
[ Gabe goes down easy, stealing a final kiss before settling back on the cushions. He feels warm, boneless. The ache dulled down to almost nothing when they’re touching like this.
It’s good. And what follows will be, too. He’s got a feeling.
Besides. He’s fucked a couple other people already tonight. Got him nice and relaxed, ready for it. Gabe hums again, resting his hand on Mal’s hip. ]
Get the lube. The oil, [ he corrects, because that’s the word he used earlier and that’s easier than slowing down to explain. ] And get it on your dick. It’ll feel pretty great, then I’ll show you something better.
no subject
The oil's still nearby, and Mal nods obediently, grabbing it and pouring a little into his palm. He applies it carefully, lingering as little as possible. He isn't right on the edge the way he had been before, not in danger of coming just from the slightest touch, but he still wants to be careful not to work himself up too soon. Not to end this almost before it begins.
Even so, Gabe's right. It does feel great, and he shudders as his oil-slicked hand slides smoothly over his dick. ]
Better than this?
no subject
Uh-huh.
[ He grins. They’re close enough now that Mal can’t miss the smile. And he shifts, putting his hand over Mal’s own. And then onto his dick, because why the fuck not? They’re here for a reason. And it’s easy enough to guide Mal between his legs.
Gabe goes easy. This time, he doesn’t bare his teeth or turn it into a fight. ]
I’ll show you.
no subject
He hisses, letting out a slow breath as Gabe's hand wraps around him. It's getting better already. But then he starts guiding Mal into position and he almost stops breathing altogether, just watching. Just letting it happen.
His free hand slides under Gabe's thigh, squeezing gently. Gently urging him to bend his knee, open himself up. Some things, he doesn't need to be taught. ]
Show me.
no subject
Real. Maybe he needed that. Something to tether him to the now, where he can’t get lost inside his own goddamn head.
He hooks a leg around Mal’s waist. Not hard, not yet. ]
Slow.
[ And then he guides Mal into him, groaning at the drag. Fuck. ]
no subject
The oil makes everything slick and easy, and there's an almost overwhelming urge to drive forward, to push deep and bury himself now. But he resists it, one hand moving to grip Gabe's hip as he inches forward, excruciatingly slow. He doesn't want to hurt him, but he also holding back for himself. It's almost overwhelming as it is. Too hard, too fast and he's afraid he'll finish long before either of them want him to.
His eyes flick up, seeking Gabe's, but he doesn't say anything, just gazes at him with his mouth open slightly. There are no words. ]
no subject
This is different. Careful in a way he doesn’t usually like. Maybe it’s different because he’s drunk.
Maybe. But the drag is familiar, the intensity of it pulling him out of his head and tying him firmly to the physical. Mal puts a hand on his hip - not digging in, just holding - and Gabe’s breath hitches. A small thing, on balance. The warm feeling spreads. And he aches, but it’s a good ache. A welcome one.
Gabe nods once, jerkily. Fuck. ]
no subject
It feels right to him, at least. It feels perfect, in this moment. Just the two of them, and who cares who's watching or what the rest of Hell is doing. He keeps moving, so slow, until he's finally nestled against Gabe, skin to skin, filling him up.
Fuck.
For a moment, he just stays like that. Relishing it. Then he urges Gabe's hips up a little more, bending him almost in half, and leans over him, wrapping an arm around his shoulders. Bracketing him within the shelter of his own body.
He rotates his hips back, pulling out slightly. Pauses. Then slides back in. ]
no subject
He doesn't know why, exactly. Maybe just because he wants to. Because he can. But he holds, and he breathes, and Mal - quicker learner indeed - leans into him. Bends him up, and then draws his hips back. And then in.
Oh. Fuck. Gabe shivers with it, one hand flying to Mal's arm to steady himself. The other he drags against the cushions, getting a good grip so he can sink his nails in. The angle's not perfect but it's close. ]
Yeah - fuck.
[ He rocks with Mal, to help. Set the pace, get the angle right. ]
Like that.
no subject
Yeah?
[ Half his concentration is still on holding himself back, making this last as long as he can stand it. The rest is just drinking it all in. The sound Gabe makes as he lets his head fall back. The way his hand clamps around Mal's arm. How fucking good he feels, and for a fleeting moment Mal wonders if it really feels just as good for him, what it might be like if their positions were reversed. If Gabe was the one driving into him while Mal writhed and cried out underneath.
It's not entirely different than with a girl. Close enough that he can let his instincts take over, tell him what to do. But it's not quite the same, either, and his eyes stay locked on Gabe's face, watching his reaction, eager to do it right. ]
S'good?
no subject
[ Gabe shivers again, the warm feeling spreading through his chest and then lower. The ache in his joints fades away. Sometimes he feels like his skin is too goddamn tight, like his bones are going to vibrate right out of his body - real horror movie shit - but not right now. Right now, he lets himself drift, and react. Lets himself fall into the rhythm they’re both setting.
Mal’s strong. Focused. And his hand feels good on Gabe’s hip, holding him tight. Keeping him present.
Good. Gabe closes his eyes and shifts a little. Working the angle until -
Oh. Yeah. He jerks under Mal, tightening his grip on Mal’s arm. ]
There, there, fuck.
no subject
Yeah.
[ There. That's it. He's gasping, breathing deep and intense, and he forces himself again to focus, to look at Gabe's face, even as he rocks into him over and over. It's a good rhythm. Shit, he wants to keep this up forever, except...he can't. Gabe had already brought him right to the edge once and now he almost regrets it, because he's getting there again far too soon. ]
What...you want?
[ Words are hard. Thinking is harder. He squeezes Gabe's hip and lets his hand slide down his thigh, then back up again. ]
Y'wanna come? You want me to - to -
[ Though neither of them may have much of a choice in what Mal does, not with how good this feels, not with how erratic his thrusts are starting to be. He cries out, cutting himself off, and bites his lip hard. Not yet. ]
