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.)

You know... Uh. I don't know. It just kind of does. We're teammates and buddies, but he's been my rival for years in piloting.

[Even if said rivalry is all but one sided.]

[this_loser]

So you like ... compete with each other?

[the_tailor]

Basically. He might say that I'm the only one who believes in our rivalry, but he's a big fat liar. All I need to do is issue a challenge and dare him, and bam. Hook, line, sinker.

[this_loser]

Yeah, I got that impression. He's fun, though.

[the_tailor]

He really is. You two friends?

[this_loser]

Yeah! I mean, I sure hope so.

[the_tailor]

I'm glad. He's kind of the lone wolf type sometimes, so it's good to see that he's branching out.

Anyway, uh, hi, I'm Lance!

[this_loser]

Nah, it's cool. It's been good for me too. [Seeing as he's only had one friend his whole life. It climbed to three with the road trip, but for a while there it felt more like friends-by-obligation.)]

Prompto. Nice to meet you.

[the_tailor]

Nice to meet you too. Welcome to the "Dealing with the Wild Yowling Coyote that is Keith" club. I'm trying to think of a shorter name to fit on a t-shirt, though.

[this_loser]

[Prompto snorts at the nickname. Though in his experience so far, he's not sure how it fits. Keith just seemed a little stand-offish and quiet at first. But he was fun once he opened up. Something of an adrenaline junkie.]

I don't know. You could try, um. What do you call them, when you use the first letter of each word to spell another word?

[the_tailor]

Anachronism? No...that's not it. Ac... Acronym! That's the thing. So it'd be..... DWTWYCTIK?

[Pause.]

That doesn't sound catchy at all. That's it, my new mission is to think of a nice catchy name for this club.
