(This is a roleplay based in an alternate universe, using characters from the Final Fantasy world, and is likely to incorporate a number of extreme fetishes.)


There really were only so many ways one could entertain his or herself legitimately, respectfully, when control and coin flowed as freely as the six-tier fountain in the main foyer of the island's grand casino. The height of its waters reached just over three stories and were a treat to look upon even as high as the tenth or twelfth, tourists often caught leaning over hallway balconies to flip in a gil for good luck, or to simply stare. He had whatever he could wish on a whim, this man, this wretched, perverted, yet handsome and charming youth. Such billions were unheard of for a twenty-eight year old, and while they were mostly his doing he could not claim it entirely. The foundation of it all was paid for through a rather rich inheritance, and over the course of just six years in operation the island retreat that encompassed anything one could want in a vacation, from a tropical forest to mountains of snow to stretches of beach to beautiful plains to anything else, had turned the investment of his inherited millions already into billions.

It could not be done, architect after architect would tell him, to have seven or eight contrasting climates all sustained on one island, sizable or no. A physical impossibility. Funny how the impossible became possible when money was thrown its way. And despite how much it had taken, literally every last gil, it had all been recouped within the first four months of its grand opening. People lined up years in advance just to enter such a palace, such a paradise, some dropping everything they'd earned to stay a month or two straight, others thrilled to set foot for even one day. It was the elite of the elite, only the rich or beautiful allowed to exist in his Eden.

But there was only so much a man at the top could do before it all became routine and, quite frankly, boring. He had done too well of a job in making this place so self-sustainable, right down to the staff who could quite well run it without him, his several assistants tending to their given tasks superbly. If he didn't wish to personally oversee things he generally didn't have to, and there was only so much indulging in one's own heaven before you desires others to share it with you. Lucky for him the ladies were were endless, all of them rich, or gorgeous, or both. Unlucky, not for him but for the men they often came with, they were taken, taken only in the assumed sense. He could have whatever he wanted, this young gentleman. It was simply a matter of explaining that to each blushing, giggling female.

There was one whom he'd been staring at for well over an hour now, a rather busty blonde standing near her man at a roulette table, and obviously growing less and less interested by the minute. Gambling was quite addicting for some and only so-so for others. The problem was that for those who couldn't get enough this place was a horrible enabler, their payouts higher by far than any other casino, patrons needing only one lucky win to recoup a steady string of losses. That didn't mean those wins came often, but when they did they were like a drug, enticing one to spend the next several hours in search of another hit.

Celes Chere. He'd gotten her name in minutes at the request given to one of his assistants. Tall, slender with a light muscled tone to his body, Tyrith was a clever young man who knew how to bide his time, and knew when to press forward. Hazel brown eyes matched well with his short brown hair, combed forward and to a side. Several days worth of an untouched growth stretched along his jawline, something which rarely brought complaint from any lady to share his bed. Or his dresser. Or his bathroom counter. And that jaw itself gave way to a wicked grin, that of a man on the hunt, that of a man sitting several tables away with his eyes seemingly stuck on this blonde. This busty women whom he already knew how he wished to take. This leggy female whom his loins ached to claim at simply her sight, wanting to mark his territory in, and all over her body.

Whether she knew of his looks or not mattered little. She'd glanced over his way a few times, but that could have been coincidence just as well as it could have been knowing. He wouldn't make his move yet. Soon. Not yet. He'd wait for hers first, wait for her to leave her man, perhaps to another part of the casino, to the bar, or anywhere else she would go. And then he would pounce, this the wild and she his prey.
 
Excitement. Those were the words most women would associate with dating a treasure hunter. That, along with romance, gold, and passionate lovemaking under a stary filled sky. Instead, the result were more along the lines of dull journeys into ten thousand ruins that looks exactly the same, barely enough gold to get by, and a tame missionary style session, once a week. Not exactly what most romance novels would be like. Celes realized that life was indeed not a romance novel. Not every woman will be lucky enough to find a man who can give them that dream romance. Indeed, she's lucky she's found a lover at all! Especially considering her background and former life as an imperial general.

"At least in the army i dont get this bored.." She muttered through pursed lips.

"What was that honey?"

"Nothing, go back to your gambling."

Locke Cole used to be a fascinating man. That go-to-hell attitude, and the daring things he would pull off during the war, was in part why she was attracted to him in the first place. Now that peace is upon them, the couple simply went from town to town, looking for rumors of hidden treasures. It would take months before they actually found something, and when they do, they use the money to pay for the next expedition. She hated to say it, but before this whole relationship, she was happier. She thought this trip to the casino would renew their fire, but in the end, all that it resulted in was this, Locke getting stuck in the roullete table, earning more money than he can get in ten expeditions. She should be happy that he made money, but prefers that he spends more time accompanying her. Taking her to the shopping promenade where she saw that wonderfull white lingerie with the butterfly pattern, or the low cut dress with the strings around the back. She needed more clothes, as it is, she only carries with her a few outfit, including the green leotard that she uses in combat, and the modest sleeveless white blouse and black pants she wore now.

"Honey, im gonna take a walk into the promenade ok?" She told him, half expecting him not to hear her.

"Ok, i'll be right here." He replied.
 
Gentlemen were patient, knowing when to stay their hand, knowing when to wait - and wise men were quick when that moment did come, lest it not come again. When he watched Celes step away from her man, he not a lipreader but displeasure evident on her face, the opportunity to strike couldn't have been clearer. Couldn't have been clearer even were she to wander along the storefronts, where he could gift her with anything she so desired.

And that's exactly where he watched her go.

They could have been designed as any other stores might, fancy and elaborate, expensive with things most would only ever dream of possessing. And they were. But they were more, much like his resort could have been the same as any other did he desire to go the simple, already paved route. But there was more to them than that. The entire main floor of the grand hotel was designed as one very large circle. At its base was the reception area and elevators to higher floors, at its center the grand casino, and all around, the outer ring of the main floor was a series of shops wrapping around the entirety of the circle, a beautiful wide canal with gondolas taking the place of the path from shop to shop. One could walk if they so chose, but why walk through the gates of Heaven were you not willing to embrace its entirety?

As he followed Celes from behind, abandoning his drink at the roulette table to casually take after her toward the shops, Tyrith could not help but stare. That ass. When she reached the canal and paused to look around, he severing the distance between them with each new step, he felt an overwhelming desire to simply come up behind her and grab hold. Those hips. He felt a shiver, a grin, wanting to just press up against them... soon.

Soon.

"Excuse me," he spoke calmly as he came up directly beside Celes, snatching up her left palm within his fingers as he circled around. Tyrith's grin had faded to a smile now, though mischievous it still was, as he came to stand in front of her in his tailored gray and black suit with a soft silver trim. "Please, madam," he began, hazel brown eyes centered on her blues, "but I cannot allow you to take another step without being accompanied." Before she could resist her hand was raised ever so elegantly to his lips, where the back of her left palm found a kiss. Then a second, just as light, his lips lingering. Then a soft third, this time to her fingers. His hand lowered after that to reveal that devious smile she may or may not have noticed already, though only lowered, he not yet ready to let go of the lady's hand.

"I do apologize, but while you are quite stunning, and your attire may invoke jealousy in others in any other place, here I feel you deserving of something even more lovely than you are currently wearing..." He didn't part his look from her eyes, not even for a second. "Would you care to indulge this wish, my dear? I had a specific piece very much in mind from the moment I saw you. And since then, if you would not mind a man's shameful admittance, I have found myself unable to so much as look away." His thumb traced slow, tender circles around the inside of Celes' palm. "Captivated."
