COME STAY WARM AT THE SCRATCH! AS USUAL, ALL WEEK LONG DIGITAL INVITATIONS will be sent out THE DUPLICITY POPULATION, FROM THE LOCALS TO EVERY LIER IN TOWN inviting them to come stay warm and find a little love while you're at it. That's right, valentine's day is coming up and while it might be chilly outside, things are heating up at the scratch ALL MONTH LONG.

OUTSIDE THE CLUB (LOCATED ON THE SITE OF THE FORMER MAGIC BELL), ARRIVALS WILL BE GREETED BY BURLY SECURITY GUARDS PUNCHING HEART-SHAPED INVITATIONS. THESE ARE NOT REQUIRED FOR ENTRY, SIMPLY ENCOURAGED, AS SPECIAL DEALS, DISCOUNTS, AND PRIZES WILL APPLY FOR TICKET-HOLDERS THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT.

▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰

The club is nice and toasty warm, a nice respite from the cold outside. The decor is is all reds and pinks and hearts, neon lights. The mood in the club is both cozy and sultry, inviting those who come to visit the club to slide up to someone sweet and spend some time.

Betty Cooper is all about supporting local businesses and she couldn't resist the flowers she saw at the market and bought enough to decorate the whole club. Those of you who have been to the market might recognize these flowers... Patrons are encouraged to take some for themselves or to take a whiff if they want.

But if you do, you might experience a few things depending on the color of the flowers:

RED | extreme "lovesickness" or unhealthy obsession with other(s)
WHITE | wanton sexual desire and a willingness to do anything, any time, anywhere, with anyone
PINK | craving for rough sex/sadomasochistic interactions
YELLOW | feelings of arousal for normally platonic relationships
BLACK | desire to act completely in opposition to one's natural dominant/submissive preference

CAUSE NOW THAT I GOT LOVE, I'M FREE INSIDE 💕

🅣HE STRIP CLUB (ALSO KNOWN AS SHAKERS) IS LOCATED ON THE MAIN FLOOR, A LONG ILLUMINATED HALLWAY BEYOND THE FRONT DOORS LEADING TO A SPOT-LIT FLOOR COMPLETE WITH BOOTHS, STAGES, AND HALLWAYS THAT LEAD OFF TO PRIVATE ROOMS (TWO OF WHICH ALSO FUNCTION AS KARAOKE BOOTHS). MUSIC PUMPS AT A STEADY BEAT AND VOLUME, EACH STAGE FEATURING A POLE (MORE THAN ONE FOR THE MAIN STAGE) FOR THE DANCERS TO MOVE AGAINST. THE SMALLER STAGES AND PRIVATE BOOTHS ARE TYPICALLY WATCHED OVER BY ONE BOUNCER A PIECE, BUT THE MAIN STAGE -- EXTENDING FROM ONE END OF THE WALL TO THE OTHER -- IS BOOK-ENDED BY TWO, SOMETIMES THREE, SECURITY GUARDS, TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THE DANCERS. THE CENTER OF THE ROOM HOSTS A LIGHT-UP DANCE FLOOR WITH A JUKEBOX AT ONE END BY THE DOOR.

GUESTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO BRING THEIR DRINKS AND DRUGS DOWN FROM THE LOUNGE INTO THE SHOWROOM TO HELP THEM RELAX AND BETTER ENJOY THEMSELVES, AND OF COURSE SO THE DANCERS STAND A BETTER SHOT OF UPSELLING EXTRAS TO GUESTS. THE BOOTHS AND PRIVATE ROOMS BOTH ARE DECORATED IN DARK COLORS AND LOW LIGHT, THE SEATING IN BOTH UPHOLSTERED IN RED LEATHER. THE PRIVATE ROOMS THEMSELVES ARE FAIRLY SMALL, FURNISHED WITH CHAISE LEATHER COUCHES OR LOVE SEATS, A TABLE, A CAGE, BUT LITTLE ELSE OTHER THAN WHATEVER TOYS OR GEAR EACH DANCER MAY BRING ALONG THEMSELVES, SO IF THAT'S OF INTEREST DURING A SESSION, BETTER ARRANGE THAT IN ADVANCE...

▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰

Dancers have been provided a variety of outfit options to go along with the theme of love.
women's one | women's two | men's one | men's two

The lighting arrangements will backlight the dancers with tones of reds and pinks, giving a them, think the silhouette challenge. Music arrangements will be slow and sensual, songs. Guests should feel free to explore and tip generously!

Part way through the night, one of the stages will be opened up for guests to take part themselves in 15-minute slots until the end of the party (participants can sign up at the bar). Anyone who wishes to perform is welcome to request some backup from the dancers working but not currently performing themselves, or they can put on a solo show. Guest dancers are welcome to keep any tips they collect, but heading off to a private room will require the payment of a cover charge. Anyone who discovers their true calling in the process and wants to make it a full time job should talk to Betty Cooper.

Never ever had somebody love me right 💕

ⒾN THE BASEMENT IS TOP DOLLAR CASINO, THOUGH YOU WOULDN'T NECESSARILY KNOW IT WAS A BASEMENT TO LOOK AT IT; LIGHTS LINE THE WALLS, THE STAIRS, AND THE FLOOR, BRINGING A WARM BRIGHTNESS TO THE WINDOWLESS SPACE, WHICH IS BOTH PAINTED AND CARPETED IN VIVID, BOLD COLORS AND PATTERNS. IF IT HAPPENS TO GIVE OFF "LAS VEGAS STRIP" OR EARLY/MID-CENTURY SPEAKEASY GAMBLING DEN VIBES, WELL, GOOD, BECAUSE THAT'S EXACTLY THE INTENTION FOR THE DECOR.

OBVIOUSLY IT ISN'T A VERY LARGE CASINO -- THOUGH DECENTLY SIZED, THE BASEMENT EXTENDING THE LENGTH AND WIDTH OF THE WHOLE BUILDING'S DIMENSIONS WITHOUT BEING BROKEN UP TOO MUCH BY AN EXCESS OF ROOMS AND HALLWAYS -- BUT IT'S WELL-STOCKED, BOASTING SEVERAL ROWS OF SLOT MACHINES, A FEW PRIVATE CARD ROOMS, AND A NUMBER OF CARD TABLES. AND A ROULETTE WHEEL, OBVIOUSLY. THE CASINO ALSO OFFERS ITS OWN BAND OF SCRATCH-OFF TICKETS, NOT REDEEMABLE FOR ACTUAL MONEY, BUT A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT PRIZES. JACKPOTS ARE HIT IN THE USUAL WAY, ALTHOUGH SOMETIMES THE DAILY GAMES AND GOALS FOR REACHING THEM WILL BE A BIT MORE UNORTHODOX... THIS IS, AFTER ALL, STILL DUPLICITY. FOR EXAMPLE, DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY TO PLACE A BET AT ALL? WELL, THAT'S OKAY. THE CASINO ALSO ACCEPTS CERTAIN FORMS OF, AHEM, COLLATERAL AS A SUBSTITUTION FOR CASH, BUT REALLY MAKE SURE YOUR INVESTMENT WILL BE WORTH IT AND DON'T JUST GO OFFERING YOUR BODY UP INSTEAD WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING THE POTENTIAL CONSEQUENCES OF LOSING; TRULY, YOU MIGHT BE BETTER OFF JUST COMING BACK WITH CASH.
