Boosting Morale (Open; Sexy Calendar Thread)

[Rozalin Kendal]

((OOC:  Welcome to one-shot posting!  Post any character you want of yours to be in a suggestive calender pose.  Pics can be fun but are not required, just put them in a spoiler tag in case of younger viewers or work credentials.  There's a separate calendar for men and women. Let's see what kind of cheesecake Cabal can dish up!))

She wasn't entirely sure who came up with the idea, but at the end of the day, it didn't really matter.Rozalin's lips quirked and her brow raised at the mention of specialty calendars featuring the men and women of Cabal. All funds were donated to the cause and it was a huge morale boost!

According to the photo director, anyway. Not that it mattered. The pirate chuckled and nodded, already sold on the idea. Any and all were invited to try as long as they followed the basic laws fo territories and decency. 

Roz had no issue with the posing or the exposure, utterly amused at the fact she was apparently going to be Miss October. Apparently they were having as much fun with the pirate thing as anything else.

And boy, would she give them a show. Draped and leaning back for one, a few buttons undone rather than her norm, she let Aryn dictate her initial pose before adding twists and tweaks of her own.  Ultimately, it was a milder version than what she originally thought, but it worked.

And of course, that filter. Cute. But so was the dropped sleeve and exposed skin. And, of course, her blade.

Because who doesn't love shiny toys?

Miss October

[Emily Suddenfield]

Why did she agree to this again?

Right. Morale.

She questioned to herself, for a moment, why there wasn't a men of Cabal calendar but the answer seemed obvious. Man-tits didn't sell. And while Emily would normally never be caught dead wearing something outside her giant sweater (which usually hid the goods), she volunteered to be a part of this intensely exposing photo journal strictly to help Cabal and the people of 259. Scowling as she walked out of the dressing her, Em's stomach was exposed, the Tight bikini mashing her chest together to make them more..."photogenic", as Aryn put it. Leaning against the pillar, she reached down and tugged a little on the wrappings around her waist, letting out a little breath before the flash of the camera caught her.

"Right! Perfect!"

Emily looked up and blinked.

"But...I wasn't ready."

The camera man waved her off, talking about natural being perfect and needing to bring in as many as they could before the end of the afternoon. Emily felt a deep and abiding desire to take the camera and beat this mans ass to death with it. Instead, her hand went to her hip and she cocked a brow. Bending over, she winked (blushing), and blew a kiss, the exposure down the front of her bikini being far more intense and causing the man to go stiff and stare wide eyed. Standing straight, she smirked.

"If you say so."

She turned and left, flipping her hair over her shoulder, leaving them with the photo that silly man decided on, instead of the one she offered.

Miss July

[Bailey Oleander]

Wrapped in a soft robe and sandals, Bailey shifted as she eyed the other girls and looked away as soon as she realized what she was doing. They were pretty, and had more confidence than she did. She still wasn't even sure why she was doing this. Morale? Yes, she'd agreed to that, and now she wasn't sure why she hadn't backed out. There were plenty of others who could do it; Rhona would probably rock it if she were around.

She blew out a sharp huff, the air pushing her bangs up into the air before settling back down in a golden haze to frame her face. She could still go, could still let one of hte others take the slot for her month's choice She closed her eyes as a dark haired girl passed by, opening them again as she steeled herself for something she would have never done even a month ago. Her grip shifted on her robe, but she stayed, and when she was called in, she gave a nervous smile and nodded, stepping into the photographer's playfield.

After the first couple of awkward poses and blushes, they seemed to get hte point, offering to let Bailey go. She wasn't forced to do this, after all.

"No, it's okay." She took a breath and squared her shoulders, blinking when they provided a prop, instead. An old toy watergun? She could work with that...

Looks like she'd be coming out as Miss June!

[Stevie-Rae]

Stevie waited her turn, not even bothering to put on the robes offered the females as they left the restrooms where they changed.

“I carry my own props.”

She told them and waited in line. Luckily it wasn’t cold. Stevie was draped in a white blanket. The females behind her buzzed with excitement. She was just there to see what could be done. It turned out, November was to be her month. She wasn’t much for turkey dinners, but the month, she’d enjoyed. Lovely weather, leaves changing, strolls with her dad. She missed him. Stevie was snapped back to the moment when the eager gentleman hollered for the next in line. Stevie grinned and made her way into the room. After what felt like too long posturing and border lining on leaving the stupid shoot, the image was taken. Stevie grinned and thanked the man. On her way to the door, she accidentally stepped on the blanket and it fell to the floor. Her face matched a cooked lobster as she snatched the blanket from the floor and rewrapped herself. However humiliated she felt, Stevie still held her head high as she exited.

SPOILER: Click to show

[Kaia Galanos]

While completely unlike her to engage in such strange activities, she always tried something at least once. So. Okay. Let's feel embarrassed and have it displayed in a calendar so you can't forget about it.

Oh yeah the Morale bit. Sure. That's why she's doing it, too. Totally.

She would take absolutely no suggestions or directions, seemingly confident as she marched over when it was her turn. If she was going to be a sexy beast, she'd figure it out herself. There's no point otherwise!

She stripped of most of her clothes, tossing them to the side before sitting down and placing herself. All she had left was her blouse.

"I'm ready for my close up." she practically mumbled.

Snap!

After a few attempts at different poses, a decision was made to use the....um...mildest one. Which is a shot somewhere between poses.

Miss February!

[Thorn Wyatt]

"Okay. Let's go."

Elias steps into the room, dressed as usual. Sure, the calendar was starting to fill up with those sexy ladies, but it was missing something. Something... important. Something that everybody needed, or at the very least, something those sexy ladies needed.

Him.

"Here's what you've been waiting for."

He says as he lies back, giving the perfect picture for Mr. August.

[Mathew Amtrum]

Mathew was never one to be shy, and since his business had been concluded he found himself in a much better mood and far more willing to accommodate such silly requests like this. Morale boosting or just showing off? He was down either way. He strode onto the set, and would direct himself. He knew what he was about. Dramatically tearing off the unneeded clothing and tossing it to the side as he lit up a cigar. A little work on the lights and what they had was pure gold. Mr. September was here.

[Evelyn Amtrum]

For whatever reason, they needed alternate models for some of the months. Not that Evelyn really cared. She stretched for a moment, enjoying the sensations that came with rising on her toes and already drawing attention with the casual movement. She knew she looked good and, thanks to the healers in God Territory, she felt much better and looked like herself again.

Which meant it was time have a bit of fun. She had about as much trouble showing off as other people one could mention, and the soft creak of leather could be heard beneath her clothes.  When it came time to take the spotlight, the jacket was removed, sliding down from her arms like liquid gold to reveal the black leather bondage gear beneath.

And wouldn't you know it, they had a prop for her, too.  Evelyn smirked a little and took the whip in hand, giving the camera a smoldering look.

Good things pictures were worth a thousand words, because April was heating up quick.

Miss April

[Caelan Xander]

Cael was all for helping to boost Morale! Though he was surprised by just how little he needed to do. After the photographer calmed down from looking at him he said something about using his natural assets as the focus of the picture. He just told Cael to Flex and strike a pose. And the ripping of the fabric of the super tight shirt he'd managed to find made it obvious why he didn't actually own any shirts. All the same. Mr. May was here.

[Krane Asiv]

Morale in any military was of utmost import. Krane had only ever seen the portion in the ad about moral, so when he got there decked out in all his armor. Though when he was told it would be better if he took it off he was confused. Eventually when he had his shirt off and was barely clothed he assumed it was for real hand to hand training. Then camera's and lighting, he fully understood now.

"Instructional Video training."

Nailed it. Krane went about doing regular things showing discipline while they got shots of him, showing a soft spot to strike an enemies armor should you intend to do maximum internal damage to soft organs.

Mister December

[John]

John made his way onto the set huge grin on his face as he met with the photographer and spent WAY too much time with lighting, adjustments, oil, shot after shot after shot. Super lewd, simply present, snazzy and dressed up, swim wear, underwear. Until finally they settled on a "Bed" shot with his pants undone.

"Screw morale, I just wanted to spread my legs for the ladies."

Mister January

[Allison Kazim]

Whyyyy was she doing this. It was embarrassing and ridiculous. Morale, her left foot! Still, as much as she protested and detested, that didn't stop Ali from joining in any more than the people already there. No one was twisting her arm, and as long as she didn't have word of it getting back home,s he'd probably be okay. Probably.

Still, she picked out a swimsuit since she was signed up for a warmer month, trying to pretend she wasn't aware of the fact a lot of the other girls had features twice the size of hers at the least. It didn't matter. In, out, and done.

Except they kept wanting to change her pose, adjust the light, get the best angle. Was this even worth it?

In the end, Ali made her name as Miss May!
