OPEN SEASON (click to reveal!)


29 / male / bisexual / ace of hearts
Details
Your humble servant Aventurine at your service.
A senior manager of the IPC's Strategic Investment Department, though I suppose that might as well be on pause. Right now, I'm a senior manager at Phoenix Casino, instead - why don't you stop by sometime during the evening, and you might as well be met with a bunny surprise.
Meet new people, form new bonds, and have fun. Isn't that what everyone comes to casino-resort for?
Glad you asked! Though I'm not sure how much it counts for a talent, I have quite the impressive luck. No matter the gamble, the danger, the puzzle ahead of me - if I bet it all on my "luck", then I know I'll come out of it the winner.
Though if you want actual talents, then you will have to get to know me and find out yourself.
I haven't yet read all the books in the universe, or watched all the movies, or listened to all the songs, or eaten all the food... So it's hard to say I have a proper favorite, isn't it?
Are we finally addressing the elephant in the room? Let's see...
Someone kind, interesting, intelligent, who enjoys a good conversation. Is that too broad? Then perhaps I'm just that easy to charm, haha!
I find wine suits my palate better, but I won't turn down the offer for beer if you'd like.
.02 CLOWNS OR MIMES
No real preference. If they're both meant to entertain, isn't the one who makes me laugh the better one?
.03 SHOWER OR BATH
A friend of mine would stand by a quality bath time, and after spending so much time with him, I've got to say the same!
.04 PIRATES OR NINJAS
Between a group of people known for freedom and rule-breaking, and those bound to loyalty... Is this a question about which I find more interesting, which I would want to be, or which of these sentiments I relate to the most?
.05 TITS OR ASS
Does it really matter, if both have their own appeal? Or rather, perhaps I should say it truly depends on the person.
.06 COFFEE OR TEA
A proper morning starts with a good cup of coffee. It's essential to any corporation worker like me.
.07 SPICY OR SWEET
Though both have their appeals, sweets are easier on my tongue. Perhaps it's hard to let go of my inner child? Haha!
.08 SUMMER OR WINTER
Most of my childhood was spent under the scalding hot sun of the desert, and though I'm quite used to it, I can't help but enjoy the comforting cold of winter nights the most. Besides, sharing a warm blanket with someone isn't so bad of a way to spend a winter day, is it?
.09 LEATHER OR LACE
Each kind of fabric has a time and a place to belong. Leather for something more formal, perhaps even casual. Lace, for a more intimate encounter. But both do suit me, don't you think?
10. ROUGH SEX OR GENTLE SEX
Am I on top, am I on the bottom? Those things are necessary to know for a proper answer. Whether you want me to be nice or not, whether you want to be nice or not... Knowing your partner's preferences is what matters the most, isn't it?
ESTJ-A

no subject
If the words of a stranger have so much value to you, then finding more connections isn't so troublesome a thing to you, is it?
( it's... not a diss? or shade? but maybe he's just pointing out a hypocrisy, allegedly, if what leona says is true, anyway. )
But I do believe quantity is not in numbers. The more people you keep close to your heart, the more likely it is to watch it break.
( unfortunately spoken from experience, whether he's trusted or not. )
no subject
so he'll just live in denial instead. way easier, way simpler. ]
If you stay a stranger for the most part, then those connections don't really mean anythin' at some point.
[ whenever that point is... ]
Would you be afraid of havin' a connection with me?
no subject
Would you? ( uno reverse card instead. ) You're the one who said connections made in this place aren't worth your time, my friend. Do you simply find them bothersome, or is the loss of them once you or your connection inevitably leaves too much for you?
( sorryyyy, he'll call it as it is. because he's the same, so. )
no subject
Mm. Maybe I need to find the one that actually makes me change my mind.
[ not necessarily a reverse card. but maybe if he plays both sides well, it'll be enough for aventurine to be happy with an answer? ]
Otherwise I guess I got some high standards.
no subject
Hahah, so you play hard to get? That's surprising.
( and leona can wonder if he means anything by that, really. a little gamble, if you will. )
Or is it that you miss home so much you want to be back as soon as possible? In that case, there's truly no room for connections to anchor you down to this place. Something like that, perhaps?
no subject
[ ugh. he rubs his face with both of his hands, desperately trying not to lose face AND his patience at the same time. ]
Yeah, I wanna go back. Got plenty of unfinished business to attend to. You know what that's like? Obligations and whatever?
[ like, the obligation of having a peaceful sleep that's uninterrupted by random suit-caused erections ]
no subject
( too bad he's a corporation slave with no home to go back to. alas. his life will be filled with paperwork and depression until he finally dies, probably. isn't that a fun obligation to return home to? )
Then consider me a new connection, if that will make it easy for you to go back home. ( you know. a card and all. ) Aventurine, Ace of Hearts. You can look up my name on the network. And if you're ever in need of a card, I might just be able to help.
( because also i don't think he ever introduced himself a year ago? hello? )
no subject
Yeah, sure. I'll think 'bout it. [ does he actually care about the game at hand? yes and no. he simply figures that any and all effort is pointless; whenever the resort wants them out, they'll be out. hopefully not as a statue. ] Name's Leona. Not an ace but a prince.
[ better than a stupid card. he'll just leave the 'second' part off. doesn't look as good on a business card tbh ]
'Might' just be able to help?
[ enjoy a brow raise so powerful that it can be felt through universes ]
no subject
and of course, he can absolutely feel the eyebrow raise. so powerful it actually steals from aventurine something like a more genuine laugh, if only because the surprise of it all is funny to him. too bad leona wasn't there to see it. )
I mean more than just mine. Again - connections, my friend. Who knows, I could set you up with someone whose card you need. Ah, but if you're wondering about mine, that's a far easier endeavor. Simply tell me a day, a time, and a location, and I would be more than happy to offer a trade.
no subject
Days and times are kinda meaningless around here. So why I don't just tell ya where you'll find me the most.
[ it's the 'giving myself cover' reasonable but idk i think it tracks. ]
Early Bird Hall, for starters. And if I'm not there? Pretty much any of the natural lookin' places.
