Lily

Welcome to the Dusk Lily Lounge, a lounge to wash your worries, shrouded in bright lights and dark corners, sweet staff with honeyed tongue and deep conversations. Drinks to quench your thirst and drown out the sorrows. A dream that awakens when dusk fall, when the sun burns its last wick for the day and the moon embraces its children once again.

21+ Malboro - The Mist - Ward 13 - Plot 37
The Dusk Lily is an immersive RP lounge, catered to socialising and information brokering. The Lounge's main goal is to unite people seeking events/fcs/communities with said elements looking for new people.

  Rule 1   The Lounge is +18 - this means sexual and dark themes exist, but we'd like you to keep it clean. This means if you wish to ERP with someone, take it somewhere private. While some of our staff may indulge in such services, this is by no means a reason for you to harass them - nor anyone else.  Rule 2   This Lounge is LGBTQIA+ friendly. Anti-LGBTQIA+ of any shape or form - IC and OOC - will NOT be tolerated and you will be removed and blacklisted.  Rule 3   Absolutely NO racism, sexism, bigotry is to be tolerated. Such behaviour will result in removal, and be blacklisted.  Rule 4   Respect your fellow roleplayers. We're all human, we err, we discuss it. Bullying, slander, shitstirring etc. will not be tolerated. While this Lounge is made to be information brokering/"gossip", if you're using this to slander/harass anyone, you will be blacklisted.  Rule 5   On that topic, no IC beef carried to OOC, or other way around. No drama in within the lounge/discord, we're all adults. If you have a problem, take it to the DMs, or reach out to the moderators/staff/managers.

  Rule 6   No elitism. We're here to have fun, and all experiences are welcome. Use your skills to educate, not exclude. If a certain theme is not your cup of tea, you can ignore.  Rule 7   This is a RP channel and first and foremost. We're all here to have fun, do a little RP, and relax. So please, enjoy yourselves. IRL > OOC.  Rule 8   Give people some time to respond, then poke them via /tell. Especially during crowded scenes where responses may get lost in an ocean of chatter/emoting.  Rule 9   If you're using any form of syncing, please make sure to compress textures. Excessive use of VFX or use of jumpscare vfx/malicious vfx will get you banned from the syncshell.  Rule 10   And finally, while the gil is RP only for the time being, tips are of course appreciated. Companionship services, however, will require real gil to be spent. Prices for these depend on the Staff member.

  THE DUSK LILY MANIFESTO   Welcome to the Dusk Lily Lounge, a lounge to wash your worries, shrouded in bright lights and dark corners, sweet staff with honeyed tongue and deep conversations. Drinks to quench your thirst and drown out the sorrows. A dream that awakens when dusk fall, when the sun burns its last wick for the day and the moon embraces its children once again.A modern lounge, vibrant lights on dark, sleek curves of the furniture. Somewhere the mind escapes, a safe haven for your weary mind. A garden of exquisite lilies that bloom with the stars.In the shadows, whispers churn. Behind the thrumming music, secluded conversations take place in peace. Information is exchanged, and then stored away somewhere safe until the right moment.Below the bush of roses, the thorns await, pricking each whisper from the flesh, another drop of blood onto the spider's web.We inhale the knowledge, and exhale the alluring fumes to the right person. We listen, we engage, and after each opening, we tend to our garden of secrets. One beautiful seed at a time.
