1. SHUTEN TERRITORY - Muscling In

art by tohdraws

In the aftermath of the curse crisis, the Shuten Clan forgave a bunch of protection payments in the region, and helped cover the costs for rebuilding. Unfortunately, some of the street gangs in the area are much less civically minded. They have used the Shuten's relaxed policies as an opportunity to turn their own screws on the local business owners. These unaffiliated youth gangs have been much rougher with the locals, and have been asking for even larger collection fees. This has pissed off the folks who are just trying to get their lives and businesses back on track!

Unfortunately, the opening of Sai no Kawara in the underground drew so much of the clan's focus and manpower, that the issues up top just slipped through the cracks. Until now! Toraguma is in a bad mood and is looking for people to take it out on: the youth gangs will do just fine.

Volunteers are being solicited to join the regular Shuten enforcers in driving these interlopers out of Shuten territory. The gangs are wise to the usual Shuten tactics, though, and they're prepared for a fight. They are also appealing to the influx of Lost Souls: they act as though they're the victims of the factions' power struggles! They propose that taking up arms against the Shuten Clan will win them favor with the other groups in the city. (It will look less good with the Shuten Clan, should you be assigned to them.)

Fight with the Shutens, or with the gangs. Either way, a fight is coming.

2. TAMAMO TERRITORY - Throat Goat (NSFW)

at by akai riot

This prompt is overtly sexual in nature. Please use the proper NSFW labelling in your top levels and threads.

While the Palace of Sai in the underground is doing well, that doesn't mean the other businesses in the Tamamo Clan's collection have been slacking. One of the least "classy" soaplands has decided they're going to hold a contest to drive up business for themselves! They are partnering with some of the other sex clubs in the area for the sleaziest of events.

The Hyottoko Cup is looking for volunteer participants! The competition is pretty straightforward: a ruler is drawn on the throat of each participant and an array of members is presented to swallow. Whichever contestant can take the guests deepest and longest will take home the "coveted" Hyottoko Cup! Ok, there's a little judge favoritism involved too, so put on a show.

The guests have likewise been pulled in as volunteers, with instructions that they don't have to make this easy on the participants. Guests are provided with special seals that they can use for the length of the competition to enhance their natural assets. For those lacking the equipment entirely, there's a seal for that too.

Have fun and play nice.

3. TAMAMO TERRITORY - Strike a Poise (GEN)

Other businesses looking to jump start this month's earnings are also getting in on the spirit of competition! Businesses less oriented towards sexual service have come together as a means to draw in the high dollar clients, and one local club has proposed something old school.

Sign up for the Poise Contest, where contestants are placed into more and more ridiculous geta while tasked with serving drinks to the guest. Spills are expected, and the guests are cheerfully kitted out with cheap club-branded ponchos to protect their clothes. (Marketing, am I right?) While spills are expected, the contestant will lose points for each of the spilled drinks. Try to keep your balance as you attend to increasingly absurd drink orders. The intensity of the traditional footwear will only make your job that much harder.

Do you have what it takes to pour a champagne fountain while wearing teetering tengu geta? Prove your balance and dexterity is the best and the take home prize is some sweet cash. For Lost Souls freshly in the city, the chance to win some extra money can't really be passed up, huh…

4. SUTOKU TERRITORY - Jigokucho's Got Talent

Ever since Moonday's beloved singer – Ringo-chan – was kidnapped at the Tanabata festival, the band has had to cancel all of their scheduled gigs. Unfortunately, they were a hugely popular act, booked solid in most of the Sutoku Alliance's various nightclubs. This has left a ton of empty spots that need to be filled quickly, before the crowds get upset and demand… refunds.

That's where you come in, Lost Souls! Desperate promoters and talent bookers are literally grabbing Lost Souls off the street and begging, pleading, with them to perform a set for the night. They just need to have something to fill the space Moonday would have otherwise occupied. At least give the crowd something to see!

Acts do not need to be of the musical variety. Any performing talent is accepted, no matter how esoteric or bizarre! If it can fill out a 15-30 minute set, the club owners will be happy and the customers will at least see something interesting; even if it's a bad kind of interesting. So get on stage and show this city what you've got!

( Help us fill our time slots, please! We're desperate! 😩)

5. DEPARTMENT OF THE ENMA - Sticky Paws II: Outta the Bag

The Enma Department is busy: they have a kidnapping to investigate, a primordial god to pin down, and the crisis of their ever-shifting public image to manage. However, crime never sleeps and is always there to add to the troubled Department's workload. Worse still, we thought this little crime spree was over six months ago! But here it is again, much to the Enma's chagrin.

Cat cafés are a popular tourist attraction all across Jigokucho. About six months ago, a gang of bakeneko infiltrated several of the cafés to rob customers occupied with kitty bliss. Wallets, jewelry, and anything else those sticky paws could snatch away were being picked in droves. The cat capers are afoot once more!

Are you a hapless victim of these furry thieves, or are you helping the Department of the Enma track down these cat burglars? Unfortunately, the bakeneko are exceptionally clever and are using a seal to disguise their secondary tails. This makes them look just about like any normal cat. Better make sure your lead is good, or you'll be chasing down an ordinary Felis Catus. Soft to pet, but not going to return your pilfered cash.

Of course, the café staff might be in on this caper too… It's never easy to tell who's getting a cut of the profits. Be careful who you trust out there.

6. ALL OVER - The 100 Billion Yen Man (PLOT RELEVANT)

The local TV news has been announcing that Kaberou Kannazaki – the legendary finance wolf and the father of kidnapping victim, Ringo-chan – will be making an announcement this week. People have flocked to television sets throughout the city; at the squares, around TVs in bars, electronic stores, each other's phones, and any other venue with a connection. The kidnapping has been a highly public ordeal and the talk of the town. Many of the locals were present at the festival and witnessed the crime. They want to hear what the word is!

The public doesn't have to wait long. Wolf-eared Kaberou sits at a press desk, surrounded by microphones, and dazzled with flashbulbs. He clears his throat and, as he begins to speak, he is direct and to the point; not unlike a wolf lunging for the throat.

"As of today, I am issuing a bounty on the man known as the Iron Bear, who has claimed responsibility for the kidnapping of my daughter, Ringo Kannazaki. The payout to the party responsible for bringing me Iron Bear, dead or alive, is 100 Billion Yen. Individuals or groups, I don't care. Just bring my daughter back to me, and the money is yours."

Well! The Department of the Enma's hopes of an orderly investigation have been dashed, but this is certainly an opportunity for anyone brave enough – or, more accurately, stupid enough – to traverse the Wasteland. Maybe one of you out there will find the legendary Iron Bear and bring him to some form of justice.

Local businesses are quick to leap at this opportunity, too. They begin to aggressively push sponsorships at would-be bounty hunters. Weapons? Armor? Survival gear? All at discount prices! Each faction has their interest in collecting the massive bounty as well. They will all be putting a lot of pressure on recruits to get ready to head out to the Wastes.

If you just got here? Well, it would definitely be in your interest to start finding gear, and finding people willing to collect that bounty with you. It could mean a big step forward toward your eventual contract, after all.

_{[ Oh. That makes him feel a little bit better knowing that his partner is also lacking in the experience department. Akira warily looks at curious eyes who are growing impatient with their dilly-dallying. That inhuman part of him wants to be on display; wants to be filthy, but the pureness of his human nature wrestles with his newfound hellish desires.

At the end of the day, Akira is a teenager who is curious and has never been pleased in this way; it's just.. a lot to take in here when he's only freshly arrived. He also realizes this is indeed his own doing and misunderstanding.. and he's helping out. At least he isn't the one providing the service because he knows he wouldn't be able to do something like that.

Hands shaking, he reaches down to his denims and unbuttons the button, giving Nazuna a look of warning. ]}

Don't.. tell anyone about this though, okay?

_{[ AKIRA YOU HAVE A WHOLE AUDIENCE, JEEZ. ]}

I'm just doing this to get paid.

...I can't promise some people won't talk...

[If it weren't for the fact that he'd just performed at the festival, he might have been confident in saying that people probably wouldn't have any reason to remember them, when so many others were participating and frankly, doing worse on a regular basis here. But even with the limited exposure he's had, he might be a problem.

But if it's just a matter of him and his word--]

I can promise they won't hear anything from me.

[Admittedly he might be just the tiniest bit fond of this weird jerk. He can certainly appreciate his attitude. He'd rather not put any pressure on him or make him uncomfortable about it seriously.]

Nothing wrong with that.

_{[ Nazuna’s teasing aside, he finds the other person to be.. tolerable. There’s not much fondness on his end, however, and he feels his face further growing scarlet as he reaches the edge of resisting. The numbers on the other male’s neck is a reminder of what this whole lewd show is about, and his mind wanders to the feeling having a mouth engulf him; muscles of another person’s throat hug around him. His cock jumps in excitement and he finally exposes himself, worming the undergarments and denims past his hips and to his thighs. He’s an average size and girth, uncut, with a generous amount of hair teasing just under his navel and down to between his legs. He exhales, feeling the rush of exhilarating adrenaline quickly overturn the feeling of nervousness. He can feel his heart throbbing in between his ears. ]}

Get on with it then. We have kept people waiting long enough.

[For him, appearances were everything. In truth, he's anxious beyond all belief. He can say whatever he wants but can he perform? He has no one to blame but himself. The desire to please others and the fear of disappointing them never play well together and yet he's never been able to separate them. At the very least, he knows how to express what he wants to express and cover up the parts he doesn't want to be seen. Gracefully, he slides down to his knees. He has to sit up straight but it's fine-- it's...

Okay maybe his face is a little hot, but he can tell himself it doesn't show. (It does.)]

Be gentle with me~

[A joke, albeit a terrible one. Because even if he was-- Nazuna doesn't know how to go easy on himself. Taking a deep breath, he brings his hand up to grip the base of his cock and leans in; swallowing it between his lips, deep to the back of his throat. He doesn't want to overdo it, but he still can't resist pushing himself. His own heart is skipping erratically.]

_{[ Somehow, the watchful eyes on them seem a lot more evident and Akira can't tell if it's excitement or embarrassment. There is actually some distant cheering as the contest persists on either side of themThe feeling is so tearing. On one hand, his demonic nature loves acting like a hedonist, bent on seeking pleasure in as many ways possible. But then there is his natural, human side that is gentle and sweet. He's always been shy, but ever since Amon fused with him, he's gotten a lot more confidence in himself. Akira is 100% certain he wouldn't be up here if it wasn't for Amon's cockiness (and his cock??? I guess?)

Akira looks flustered when this happens, feeling hot and dampness engulf him and shamelessly push towards the back of the blonde's throat. He squeezes his eyes shut and allows Nazuna to do what he pleases and is comfortable with. The goal is to see how far he can get it to go, right? and as much as Akira wants to buck and thrust into his mouth, he resists.

He always resists, but maybe it will be alright if he steadies his hand on Nazuna's head and exhale slowly. ]}

[Now that he's here, it's surprisingly easy for Nazuna to drown out the cheering from the onlookers and the noises of the other contestants around them. But in the back of his consciousness he can still feel the prickling burning sensation of the eyes watching. Yet he wouldn't be much of an idol if he got tripped up by having a couple hundred eyes pointed in his direction. Everyone was treating it like a show. But this wasn't a stage and they weren't his audience. As far as he was concerned, he only had one person here to please-- and that was the guy with his dick in his mouth.

Leaning his head into that hand, he dares to look up; red eyes fluttering open to watch the guy's face as he slowly begins to move. His lips hug the shape of him-- not too tight, but more firm than if he really wanted to tease him-- as he lets Akira's cock slide along the curve of his tongue. This may be his first time doing it, but he knows what he's supposed to do more or less. He's old enough to have heard his fair share of stories too.

He wouldn't mind Akira taking a few liberties but he's fine with doing most of the work here. Visually, he's a little less flushed than he was earlier, but his cheeks are still a vivid shade of pink and his eyes try to shy away from making full contact, even as he tries to read his expression to get a feel for what he likes.]

_{[ Down and down his cock goes, hitting until Nazuna's mouth is almost snug against Akira's body. He doesn't have the biggest or largest cock, not like this, and judges take tally of where the end of his member lands in Nazuna's throat. The goal is to see how long he can hold it, right?

But this situation he's found himself in is so lewd. The way people are cheering and watching and making crass remarks. His human nature is embarrassed but his demon nature cannot get enough of it. He feels his body starting to ache, trying to hold back the monster that lives within him. Most of the time, situations didn't excite him enough to the point of losing control, but he has transformed on several occasions just from having a vivid dream.

Here, it's real, and he's never been put in this position before, so he has no idea how well he's going to keep this up. His breath grows rapid, his body shaking. ]}

You.. you may have to stop..

_{[ Already? But Nazuna has almost taken him in his throat fully. ]}

[Before the measurements are taken, he gives himself that final push to take in every last centimeter he can. The hands on his neck taking measurements are an unexpected and strange feeling. He can't see much of what's going on; the best he can do is try to stay as perfectly still as possible until it's over. He does try-- but the neck is a pretty sensitive place to have someone touching and leaving marks on his neck. Some squirming is to be expected.

Akira's voice snaps him back out of his intense focus. Although it's barely recognizable, there's a muffled "ah" noise. With that comes all the sensations of his throat and mouth moving and the small vibrations that come with it.

Was he gonna--? Ah... it felt kind of early for that, but it was the only thing that Nazuna could think of for why he'd suddenly ask to stop like this. In the scope of the competition itself, it would have been fine. Probably expected, really. But... considering this guy didn't have a whole lot of experience maybe it was embarrassment--? Nazuna really didn't want to put him in that kind of situation. He didn't really sound all that certain about what he really wanted though.

So-- rather than pulling off, he opens his mouth wide again. If the guy really wanted to stop now, well-- Nazuna wasn't going to stop him. But he wouldn't stop him if decided to say screw it and just enjoy it either.]
