[event/open] NEVER HAVE I EVER

Who? Anyone who wants in
When? 8pmish during the event
Where? On the beach
What? Just a nice little icebreaker game to get to know everyone. :)


It takes a bit of work and a few rides on the tender, but there’s a neat little structure set up around where the tender has been letting passengers off.

There’s a makeshift bar out of some coolers from the sundries store and some chairs somehow dragged onto the tender, wrapped in paper to hide that it’s a bar made out of coolers and chairs.

Just that was a pain to set up, however, so the crowd seating is made up of beach towels and driftwood logs dragged down from further up the beach.

Most prominent is the makeshift banner set up behind the bar, a trail of paper taped up between two hockey sticks jammed into the sand. In big block letters (that are only slightly cramped near the end) is written the theme of this little get-together:

ICEBREAKER


8PM - “NEVER HAVE I EVER”


The makeshift bar is crowded with glasses with drinks already poured. Who did that and when? Uh... Someone in a Hawaiian shirt, right?

Right, anyway. There’s April taping another piece of paper to the sticks of the banner, and when there’s enough people around, whether or not they’re actually here for the game, the rules are loudly announced for all in earshot:

  1. One person states something they have never done, in the form of: “Never have I ever...”

  2. If you HAVE done that thing, you take a drink

  3. Elaborate if you want

  4. Repeat with the next person


Simple enough, right?

Honesty is not magically enforced, so it’s entirely up to your character if they choose to drink or not, or explain why or why not they’re drinking. Have fun! Learn about your fellow passengers!

[RULES FOR US, THE PLAYERS:
- Top levels are for your character making their ‘never have I ever’ statement
- Top levels are then replied to with your character drinking or not drinking, whatever you feel is notable
- From there, have people react/ask further questions/etc to those replies, thread as normal.

Every character gets ONE ‘never have I ever’ top post unless the response to this post is abysmal.]

[ Oh it's this guy again. Steve now has the experience to know he's probably not doing some weird roleplay thing but. ]

Being stood up? [ he asks, in a tone that implies disbelief that anyone would even have to ask. ] Like when you ask someone on a date and they don't show?

( further clarification needed! )

What if they show up, but then turn around and just leave you there.

( not a date, but kinda a date. )

( cool. cool, content with that answer she takes the BIGGEST most BITTER swig.

good people died, lexa, and even the most heartfelt forgiveness will never truly equate to forgetting. )
konpeito_aji: (Kill them)

[personal profile] konpeito_aji 2022-09-17 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[What the fuck?]

Can I kill them for you?

[He doesn't drink, but damn. What the fuck?]

No you may not.

( and yanno clarke, that one sip was probably good, you were almost done, oh — oh, nope, starting over. )
konpeito_aji: (playing the fool is my job not yours)

( WE DON'T TALK ABOUT THIS with anyone except, like. natsuno and pal. notably absent from that list: nobunaga and steve harrington if he's still in listening vicinity. )

Literally none of that's your business, so. ( too mature to stick out her tongue, not mature enough to stop a nasty sneer. )
konpeito_aji: (Shhhh)

[That's okay, Nobunaga is immature FOR HER.]

[So he sticks his tongue out playfully.]

[But winks.]
Got it.
