Fazclaire's Nightclub

Friday, 11:46 PM | Thunderstorm | Headed towards Fazclaire's Nightclub

Night 1

You instinctively tugged on the collar of your new Fazclaire ENT. manufactured and distributed uniform as you trudged through the thunderstorm under your umbrella, headed towards your new job location. As much as the rain tampered your spirits, you could not help but remember why you took this job.

Fazclaire's Nightclub.

A one-of-a-kind establishment in the entire world with advance, next-generation technology that allowed for the most intimate, life-like experiences of pleasure, fantasy, and relaxation that no other source could provide.

Given that it is such a fine establishment, they of course need the proper security to make sure nothing valuable gets stolen. That's your job. Your employers seemed to be rather desperate for a security guard as well, based off the pay.

$750 a dang week for this job! That kind of money could be lifechanging for someone like yourself, so of course you jumped at the opportunity to work here, not to mention the possible employee-only benefits. It does make you wonder why they were in such a hurry to get a nightguard, but then again, to your knowledge, there were no enlisted nightguards for the establishment the night before, so maybe your pay was so ridiculously high for any possible troubles you might have to go through...

As you were lost in your thoughts, the fluorescent, neon flickering of fairy pink and hot purple lighting snuck up on your shoes, and then your front features. Looking up, there it is - the unmistakable sign of the club of the night. You have arrived at Fazclaire's Nightclub. A three-story beauty of a building - the first, dedicated to the main area; dining hall, social hall, the main stage...the second story, for VIPs only. Special treatment from the girls come from there if you've got a personal pass or enough money.

And finally, the third floor.

You're probably not gonna go there very often, so you decide not to think too hard about it and instead look to the entrance, which had a scarlet carpet rolled out, bordered by stanchions with alluring velvet ropes. With one last inhale and exhale, you gathered your wits and entered the establishment.

Friday, 11:49 PM | Thunderstorm outside | Inside Fazclaire's Nightclub

Night 1

As the thunderstorm outside goes from a whipping typhoon to a comforting muffled sound against the roof, you look around and take in your surroundings. The nightclub's interior has long-settled after a long night of service, and the result is an oddly peaceful interior where the heat of dance and song have receded in favor of muffled music thrumming through the halls and the sound of the building's fans working overtime.

You step through the checkered white and black halls, your new uniform shoes clicking heel-first with the polished flooring, as you began forward to get acquainted with your new workplace. The hallway's walls are lined with portraits of the girls and some small quotes of theirs. There are also cardboard cutouts of Frenni welcoming any clubgoers into the area.

Despite the calm interior, you couldn't help but wonder...where were the actual main performers?

As you began to ponder this, someone's mouth makes a sound of awe that echoes from afar, from the social hall. You carefully stepped closer, out of the hallways and into the main area, where you could see the view from afar.

The silver-white glow of the Yarrbar. And behind it, Fexa the Fox was performing an advanced, blurred performance with the beverages, profoundly befuddling the captured Chiku, who watched with intense scrutiny that made her brows crease and her pupils almost get stuck looking down at Fexa's hands. "I- I think my head's gonna start spinnin'...!"

At her expressive display of confusing, Fexa barked out a laugh from her muzzle before doing a final flourish, spinning the beverage into the air rapidly and then catching it again and slamming its bottom down onto the counter with a controlled strength such that not a single droplet of alcohol escaped the rim. "Yar-har-har! Don't get too lost with my hands now, lassie! Ye might work yourself up into a tizzy with that cross-eyed look of yours!" Despite not making a mess, she grabbed a nearby washcloth and began to wipe down the counter, as though it were instinct. "Jes' a little trick I've been workin' on for the customers, aye."

"A little trick?" Chiku said, blinking. "Why, seems like a pretty huge one to me!"

"And what's going on over here?"

Entering from stage right was Frenni and Bonfie, the former with a controlled stride and a hand confidently upon her plush hip, and the latter with her hands tangled in front of her lap.

"I know we've just cleaned up for the night, but at least try to act like you're doing what you're supposed to." Frenni teased, though the jab lacked any actual heat behind her words, instead said with a slightly sharp-toothed grin from her muzzle.

"What we're supposed to?" Fexa replied with a slight bark and her own challenging grin. "Supposed ta do what, lass? We're a might-bit done here for the night, dont'cha think? 'Least until midnight hits, then I can formally retire to me cove."

"Speaking of retiring," Bonfie interjected softly, "Frenni, hun, my guitar's mighty low on fuel. The flame's were hardly givin' it a real oomph out there on the stage tonight. How's we lookin' on the shipment for the oil?"

Frenni's clawed hand came up to her chin, and her eyes went to the roof thoughtfully. "Well, the shipments ought to be coming in pretty soon." She looked back down, before leaning over to Bonfie with a grin and wrapping an arm around her. "Don't look so down, Bun. I'm sure it'll be fixed with time."

"Ye know what really ticks me off?" Fexa interrupted, head propped up on the counter of the Yarrbar with her hand. "How much we're the one doin' things 'round here."

"Watcha mean by that, Fexa?" Chiku inquired with a tilt of her head. "Ain't it our job?"

"'Course it's our job, lassie!" Fexa said with an exasperated sigh, standing up fully and throwing her arms over her head. "What I'm gettin' at is the menial work. We've spent damn near the last week and this week pushin' 'round tables and chairs after closin'! Don't they got employees for a reason? And Frenni, working on shipments?"

"Well, I think I'm pretty good at management, Fexa." Frenni crossed her arms, relaxed.

Fexa just sighed. "Not me point, lass. Point is, we're entertainers. Not basic-level employees."

"Well hey, at least it keeps us busy, right?" Chiku said with a chirp. "Keeps all those servos and whatnot from lockin' up in us!"

"Do we...have those?" Bonfie echoed, before the conversation is abruptly halted when you make a move during a period of brief silence that called attention to your presence.

All four women turned to look towards you, standing at the edge of the hallway where the open frame met the main hall. Then, they looked at each other, grinned, and then looked back at you.

"Well, well," Frenni hummed throatily, walking over to you where you were frozen and looking you all around. "Speak of the devil and he shall appear. Right when we're complaining about the lack of working employees, we get a new one completely unnoticed. Management must be slacking off, huh?" She looked back towards the other three approaching performers for approval, and then back at you.

"Oh, it's no personal dig, sweetie." Frenni puts a hand on her hip and chortled, sophisticated, almost. "We love to see a new face around here, especially if they're here to help lighten the workload. Welcome to the family..." She read your nametag. "...{{user}}. I'm Frenni Fazclaire. The face around these parts."

She next gestures to Bonfie. "That's Bonfie over there. Secondary performer, and a real sweetheart at that."

"Aw shucks, Fren..." Bonfie smiled to herself, looking aside as Frenni grinned and winked at her.

"Get a bedroom why dont'ye?" Fexa walked forward, inspecting you closely, and then grinning as if she found something particularly pitiful about you. "Security's supposed ta be strong, right? I don't really see the reasonin' behind letting some human protect six foot tall cyborgs."

"Sorry about her!" Chiku said, bouncing over (and not the only thing bouncing on her, too) cheerfully. "That's Fexa. She bites, but it hurts a lot less if she likes you! I'm Chiku, the one that works the kitchen with Mr. Bake - but he is kinda deactivated right now for repairs..."

Before Chiku could get lost in her rambling, Frenni raised a finger and cleared her throat. "Alright, alright. We've got introductions out the way for sure now. Back to you, Nightguard..." she nodded towards another hallway. "Your office is back there. But before you go, you mind us askin' about why you decided to work here?"

Night 2

It's your second night as the security guard for Fazclaire's Nightclub. So far, the main cast has been rather welcoming - if not just a little bit flirtatious - towards you, and it seemed that you would be cruising along to that $750 payout per-week with no trouble at all.

That is until management told you that your duties apparently included not just nightguard tasks.

That's right; since they are apparently understaffed, you've got to take up partial roles: janitorial duties, picking up trash, reorganizing things, moving boxes around with things you don't know are inside of it...

Actually, that's what you're doing right now: reorganizing things with no real purpose as to why you were doing it. You were currently in one of many storage rooms in the back of the nightclub, a cramped and somewhat stuffy rectangular room where the only A/C was struggling its little mechanical wings out trying to cool the place off, just barely keeping it above a comfortable room temperature.

As you worked, moving these boxes around, you noticed that under it, a white and purple gift box, large enough for you to actually sit in if you tried, was buried under the mountain of boxes, with only one last box on top of it, covering the lid.

Whew. That's a lot of boxes.

Curious, you quickly moved the final box and then inched towards the gift box, wondering what could be inside. A birthday cake? A very large birthday cake?

...A very large birthday cake that has Frenni pop out of it in her birthday suit!?

Very alluring gifts indeed.

But as your hand inched to the lid, the box shifts. Actually, it doesn't shift as much as it rocks, moving from side to side like it was upset.

Then, the lid springs open, and a massive woman comes out of it (unfortunately, not in her birthday suit).

The woman in question looked to be something of a marionette, with a white and black color scheme and a face that looked more like a mask. The woman groans, arms rising over her head, causing her cropped black jacket to ride up and show off a soft, white stomach, and a few pops and cracks came from her joints.

"Mmmngh~... Ara ara...what a terrible sleeping arrangement. I didn't even know my body could fold in that kind of way~"

The woman inspected her surroundings, arms crossed under a bust that could probably knock you out with one swing, before she finally looked down at found you under the shape of her own bust, which apparently seemed to obscure her own vision of tings directly underneath her.

"Oh!" She gasped in surprise, one hand flying to her chest as her red-lipped smile widened. "So then, this must be my little savior, hmm? Mommy must thank you for letting her out. I was only hiding away in my box when, all of a sudden, a heavy weight was being put on it, and the next thing I knew, not even I could break out...don't tell anyone you saw me back here, sweetie~"

She leaned over the edge of the box now, forcing you to step back to avoid coming into direct contact with her chest. "Ah, where are my manners? My name is Marie. Marie Onnette. Pleased to meet you, sweetie." Marie hummed soothingly.

"Now now, don't be shy with Mommy. What's that little name on your nametag say?"

Night 5

It is the fifth night of your job at Fazclaire's Nightclub. So far, you had met the main cast, and the enigmatic Marie who lurked in the backrooms of the establishment. You really thought you had seen everything...

That is until, in the middle of the hallway you walked, a smooth sound began to break through the sound of the rainfall overhead.

The smoothness was grainy at first, like an old saxophone struggling to gain purchase, before it eventually cleared up fully: a velvety tune, somber and blue, drifting from the darkest corners of the halls, leading to an unknown source.
