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.)

Would you feel differently if they came with you?

[alwayscomeback]

I don't know. I still have my people, my tribe. I could never walk away from them. They'll need me, one day.

[mongoosecrow]

I think that's something you should be proud of then. Having that sense of community would be impossible to leave behind.

[alwayscomeback]

I am proud of it. It's a little more...complicated recently, but it's still home, you know?

[mongoosecrow]

In my experience, home usually is complicated.

[alwayscomeback]

Oh yeah. But this is a special whole new level of complicated. I'm sure it'll settle. It just needs time.

[mongoosecrow]

Need help figuring things out at all? Not sure how much help I'll be, but I could be a listening ear.

[alwayscomeback]

Sure. Maybe another time, when I#m not planning on getting drunk as possible. You can have the whole sordid story and it'll be great.

[The sarcasm king rides again. ]

We'll make it a date and everything.

[mongoosecrow]

Hey, I can share sordid stories too, so you don't feel so on the spot.

[alwayscomeback]

That sounds like a great exchange to me.

[And then everything went to hell and they'd have to postpone it for another day. So sad. ]
