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.)

space bar!

[poisontippedcure]

[It's been a rough couple of weeks, and so a trip to the bar doesn't seem too far out of line. And hey, this game might be fun.]

[Might.]

Never have I used a microwave.

[At least, she thinks that's the name of it? That weird contraption in the kitchen. She almost tried once and the shipmate who helped her had an allergic reaction.]

[spacebro]

You got me there. [He drinks and then looks curious.] Really, never? How do you make popcorn? [Clearly important.]

Aaaaand I've never made food for myself regularly.

[poisontippedcure]

We don't have need for such things where I'm from.

[Also, she's not sure what 'popcorn' is. She mostly hunts her own food, but she does regularly prepare it. So, a drink.]

Never have I started a drinking game on a spaceship.

[That's probably a little too on the nose but she's determined not to lose this.]

[spacebro]

Who doesn't need convenient food-heating?

[He drinks and is so much less determined to win that about half the time or more he drinks at his own questions.]

Mmm...I've never had people compliment me on my ears. [But he suspects she has because they're very cute.]

[poisontippedcure]

We have convenient food heating. It's called 'fire.'

[Rose takes a sip. She doesn't get too many compliments anymore, but they do happen occasionally.]

I've never not had a tail.

[spacebro]

[He takes a drink.] There's a tail too? [It would be impolite to look, right?]

I don't know if I'd call fire convenient unless you have heat vision.

[He tilts his head.] I've never had heat vision.

[poisontippedcure]

[It absolutely would be and also she's side eyeing Mon-El pretty hard right now.]

Neither have I, but that sounds more convenient than practical.

[She smiles.]

I've never flown a spaceship.

[spacebro]

[His eyes are just staying right up here. No worries!]

I've seen it in action and it can be a lot of both. That is not a look you want to be on the receiving end of.

[He takes a drink because of course he has.]

I've never ridden in one. [And another drink. He plays this so well.]

[poisontippedcure]

I wouldn't imagine so.

[Which, come to think of it, had she been on the receiving end of heat vision before? There had to be something like it, right?]

[She takes another drink, before smirking back in response.]

Oh? And what exactly are you doing now?

[spacebro]

That's why I took a drink. [He waves his glass.] It does get harder to think of things you haven't done. [He's not drunk. His tolerance is through the roof, but he is getting buzzed and he is playing with a lot of people. But to be fair he was never that good at thinking of them.]

I've never put my hair in a pony tail? [Mostly because it's too short.] Or was it your turn? I've never skipped anyone's turn?
