Never have I ever made a fool of myself [video, nebula 17]

[monkeyinthewrench]

What's up, party people?

[ And here's a cheerful wave from a man in orange, seated in his room with a mug of...something. ]

If we haven't met yet, my name's Jake. Jake Peralta, your clues guy. I'm down to poke things with sticks and solve mysteries! Sooner we figure out what the train's entire deal is, where we're going and all that, the better, right? But in the meantime, I thought it'd be fun to get to know my new squad!

Anyways, I was wondering if anyone would be down to play a little Earth game called Never Have I Ever. How it works is you say something totally cool, or weird, or boring that you haven't done. And anybody who has done it has to take a drink. Unfortunately, I'm as broke here as I was back home, so I can't supply the booze. And we should probably be setting a good example, right?

So just drink whatever you have! Be that water, juice, milk, coffee...or if you happen to have a proper adult beverage on you, go ahead and drink responsibly. You ready? Great, I'll start: never have I ever gone skydiving!

((ooc: it's a big mingle format! Go ahead and add new 'never have I ever' statements as new toplevels, and threadhop all you want.))

Never have I ever been in a relationship.

[That should catch a lot of people.]

[mtsilver_conquor]

[brb taking a sip of her drink.]

Trust me, it's better to wait than rush.

[tactlesstantei]

I’m in no rush, don’t worry.

I mean, it’d be nice to have a girlfriend one day, but I can wait.

Sorry for the slow :(

[mtsilver_conquor]

Assuming we even remember this once everything's over, let me know when you and your girl are stable.

You can come to my world and use one of the tanks if you want. [Eva: forgetting not everyone knows her world's slang.]

[jan_ken_hacking]

[Ssssssssip...]

...Masumi-neechan, do you think you ever will?

[Fortunately, given who's asking, it's clearly meant to be a pleasant, curious thing, rather than anything mean.]

[tactlesstantei]

I hope so. It’s not a priority right now, but it’s something I’d like one day.

[jan_ken_hacking]

Mm, it's good to not rush things, so that's a good approach.

....is it overstepping, to ask if you have a dream-match though...?

[Softly, thoughts move toward Watson...]

[goingthroughaphase]

Man, I'm gonna need a refill soon if this keeps up.

[ She takes two sips. ]

[monkeyinthewrench]

[ And down it goes. ]

I could just talk about Amy all night. But I don't think anybody wants that.

[Yugi is just going to take a long sip of his drink. Considering he has a fiance now the answer was clearly obvious.]

Over six months on the train and counting.

[tactlesstantei]

Hey, congrats on that Yugi! I hope it keeps going well between the two of you!

[sizedoesntmatter]

I hope so to. For as long as we both continue being on the train.

[paopuofyourlife]

[This was something Kairi can actually take a sip for now as weird as that was at the moment.]

I hope that you find someone someday.

[blue_ice]

I'm getting married in two days. Enjoy the solo life while you can.

[ Aand drink. He's just teasing, don't worry. There's a little smile there. ]

[tactlesstantei]

Congrats! I hope it goes well!

[She's very genuinely delighted for him, if her tone is any indication.]

[thawed_pride]

[Sigh, once again, a drink of coffee that he's sure will invite surprise and questions about his personal life...]

Once again, I have no intention of indulging anyone's desire for gossip.

[fun_thementalist]

[ Drinks some of his chocolate milk, and then grins - ]

I think you're playing to win, my dear.

[tactlesstantei]

I sure am.

[She has no regrets.]

[canyounoct]

Do you want to be?

[ Drinks. ]

I mean ... some people, that's just not their thing.

[tactlesstantei]

One day, yes. I'm in no rush, but it'd be nice to have a girlfriend one day.

[It's not a major issue for her, but sometimes she does think about it.]

[so_dark_a_road]

[ Curufin upends his bottle and takes a big drink. ]

If you ever intend to be in one, get to know the person before you are tempted to become a couple. It's really not fun to find yourself in a relationship that never should have been.

[wizard_redfive]

[There is subtle movement from the video feed as Dairine just starts to lift her cup but sets it back down in what's hopefully a casual motion. Nothing to see here.]

[Yeaaah, given how unsure she was over what emotions were going on with Roshaun, that probably didn't count.]

[pleple]

[ Sip tea. ]

Why are these the only ones that I fail on?

[dragoonrouge]

[Q'uila takes two distinct glugs of tea.]

[tactlesstantei]

Oh, care to elaborate?

[She will not force Q'uila if she does not want to, but she is curious.]
