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.)

[There's a long pause when he asks that. It's a question Lance has thought before plenty of times, but he's forced himself not to linger on that "what if".]

...I don't know. I really don't. To be honest, I kind of got thrown into this war without even knowing it was happening to begin with, so a lot of it's beyond me.

[He nods, realizing what a downer of a question that was. He was supposed to be in the cheering up and distraction business.] I know how that being thrown into something big thing goes. [Maybe not an intergalactic war, but he was suddenly on track to be a superhero which was not exactly how he ever saw himself.]

You know what? I think you'll do great. [He raises his glass as if to cheer him.]

[the_tailor]

You think so? You just met me! I mean, I know I carry an air of general awesomeness around me, but...

[There he is, back to that routine of his to drag himself out from darker thoughts. Lance raises his glass as well, clinking it against the other's.]

[spacebro]

[He shrugs.] Seems like a jerk move to assume the worst when you have to go to war?

[the_tailor]

True. Very true. You're a cool dude, A+ person to talk to and drink with.

[He smiles.]
