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.))

( he doesn't even try to disguise his eye roll here. )

People are going to do what they're going to do, it's not like I have trouble saying no. I'm not afraid of dealing with consequences of what I say or do. If people get the terrible idea in their head that I'm a challenge, they already missed the point.

( plus the only one trying to make him squirm over this is the guy who has turned him down for the erroneous belief that Jingyi was falling for him in the first place, so he's pretty sure zero people actually think of this as a "kiss Jingyi" challenge in the first place. )

Oh, certainly, and you look like a man who's very adept at defending yourself as well.

[ Most people did, compared to Gen's lithe stature. ]

And yet plenty would want to avoid the entire hassle. So, it does make me wonder ... what is the point, my friend?

[jingyeets]

( cue the eyebrow raise. )

Teasing the ones who'll play and take a drink for it.

( .... duh )

[ Surprised blink - and then a genuinely amused grin. ]

I think I like you.

[jingyeets]

Oh, don't worry, there'll be plenty of time to either change your mind or confirm.

( he looks a touch amused, since he can honestly say: he's not fussed who does or doesn't like him, generally speaking, as long as someone's dislike doesn't invite harm on those he cares about. )
