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

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.))

If I wished to know, I would simply watch them do it.

As the person who initially asked the 'falling down the stairs' question: that is a fair if dispassionate point.

[He may also be more than a bit concerned now.]

Must one normally inebriate their coworkers in order to find such things? I think that rather suggests a lack of observational skills.

[Drunken rambles incoming:]

Ah ah ah, how can we observe something that happened in the past and in another universe?

--I mean. With magic, probably, but that's not an option for all of us. And seems impractical for a large-scale application.

And isn't as fun!

[ He ignores the remark about 'fun' for now ]

If it is not happening now, why is it of interest?
subcircuits: (encouraging)

So we can get to know each other, 'f course. The more invested we are in each other, the stronger our community, yeah?

[ Can't relate, bruh. ]

And imbibe large amounts of liquid that might not even be intoxicating.
subcircuits: (appealing)

[He gestures with his 'cup', which is actually a ramekin knicked from the kitchen car.]

Drinking's in the spirit of the game, whether you're boozing it or not!

If you say so.

The inebriation is a personal choice; you will notice a number of people here are playing with non-alcoholic drinks. And we can hardly observe events for which we were not present, can we.
hoardsrealestate: (that's not the point)

It seems that is more your failing than theirs, if it is something you are genuinely interested in.
