Video/Action : Open : "I Never" Game!

[spacebro]

Who: Mon-El and YOU!
Broadcast: Open to all
Action: Open at the Space Bar
When: Now

I should probably mention I'm awake again since that's what everyone's doing. Who knew so many of us were sleeping together? [Light laughter. Yep. Okay, more serious face now.]

So, I heard what happened, and I don't want to make light of that. I know what losing a planet is like and it's...not great. [Such understatement.] But I also wanted to provide some distraction. [It's what he's best at.] Some fun. Some potential healing? [For himself too. He's still processing what happened to Okita and the others.]

For anyone who is interested—either over the network or by coming into the Space Bar at the Iskaulit—let's play a game I picked up on earth called, I Never. [He may also be correcting what he thought was awkward grammar from someone saying "Never have I ever." Details.]

So, you take turns and say something like, "I never crash landed on Earth." And if you have then you take a drink. [And he does.] Which is usually alcohol, but apparently [apparently, he says] kids don't do that here, so water or whatever is fine too. The objective is to make the other person drink more than you, so you might just get them really hydrated instead of drunk.

It's a good way to get to know someone too, so everyone's welcome even all those people I don't know yet. I'll start.

I never was born on Earth. [He doesn't drink.]

[If you do meet up with him at the Space Bar you'll see he's actually bartending and drinking on the job! But he has superhuman tolerance so there's that. He may even be responsible and switch to club soda if he needs to. He'll offer you a drink even if you're not interested in the game.]

(OOC: Feel free to threadjack if you want in on this concept with someone else too or just to point and laugh. You might want to check with them, but it's cool with me. And if anything goes to a place you don't want it to go just let me know or give me a heads up if there is something to avoid up front. He won't be intentionally hardcore about it.)

[axi]

You've also never been old enough to drink.

[Kaname's on the stool next to her. She reaches out and slides the beverage away from Freyja.]

No alcohol for you.

action;

[livesfastdiesung]

Ehhh, but Kaname-san! I'm fifteen!

[SHE'S MIDDLE-AGED. TECHNCIALLY.]

action;

[axi]

You know as well as I do, galactic laws trump planetary ones every time. I doubt that's different here.

[She does spare her friend a sympathetic smile, though.]

But I'm sure they've got non-alcoholic drinks that are just fine.

action;

[livesfastdiesung]

Not even a sip? I won't tell if you won't!

[But that's probably her last feeble attempt anyway. Wow, galactic laws are very unfair to Windermereans.]

action;

[axi]

There will be nothing to tell this time.

[Despite her refusal, she's still smiling warmly.]

Maybe some other occasion.

action;

[livesfastdiesung]

Fiiiiine. If that's how it's gonna be! I know when I've lost.

action;

[axi]

I'd still like if you played the game. Just drink something else.

You in?

action;

[livesfastdiesung]

Of course I am!

I think you gotta drink already, though, unless there's somethin' you weren't telling me!

action;

[axi]

As far as I'm aware, you're correct.

[So she grabs the drink Freyja somehow had and takes a big sip.]

Happy now?

action;

[livesfastdiesung]

Eheh, I am. It's your turn, now.

[And don't worry, she's getting something non-alcoholic mom.]

action;

[axi]

[As you were, child!]

Mm, I've never been engaged.

[Take that.]

action;

[livesfastdiesung]

[Sometimes she wonders how he's doing. Sometimes. She assumes he's probably okay and doing stuff somewhere or something. But still!! Geez Kaname, that wasn't fair (just like her first question wasn't fair, right).

So she drinks.]

I never knew about really old people before Ragna. [And she thought they were an entirely different alien race for awhile there.]

action;

[axi]

Define really old people first. [Kaname eyes the girl.]

action;

[livesfastdiesung]

They've gotta be so old they've got wrinkles.

[So not you, Kaname, gosh.]

action;

[axi]

Like most other species get. Unfair.

[She laughs, then drinks. And of course not her, you cheater.]

I've never been a stowaway on a ship.

action;

[livesfastdiesung]

[She huffs, taking a drink.]

I've never been a leader.

action;

[axi]

[Without a word, Kaname knocks back the rest of Freyja's original beverage.]

Cheap shot. I've never been accused of having a horn.

[Yeah girl, they all heard that convo.]

action;

[livesfastdiesung]

[Okay suddenly she looks like she wants to die. Why is this happening.]

Kaname-san!

action;

[axi]

Yes, Freyja?

[Three guesses who's acting completely innocent right here.]

action;

[livesfastdiesung]

[Since she's already given herself away with her reaction, she just. Accepts her fate and drinks, but oh my god.]

That was really not fair!

[It's not like she was playing fair though, anyway.]

action;

[axi]

[A chuckle slips out, she can't help it. She does pat Freyja's arm, though.]

Love and war, Freyja.
