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.))

Saying what?

[No he won't, and it's time to go full stupid on the teenager to deflect everything. Maybe even to just go and say something else for this game.]

A-Ling I have one for you. Never have I ever let the youkai get the better of me.

[Low blow, but Jin Ling should know exactly what he means, given the Okami's enjoyment of teasing the boy. Not meaning losing control, but letting the youkai get the amusing better of them.]

Saying things like your family not being proud of you-- and devaluing yourself! Would you seriously quit that?!

[ Jin Ling was seething beyond the normal levels of how dismissive this was and on top of that, did he just change the subject on him again!?

As if he needed to be reminded that the demon got the better of him all the god damn time. Jin absolutely hated the youkai teasing him tremendously. He had to deal with it harassing him while he was trying to explain things to both Jingyi and Sizhui. Neither looked good to him.

Whether Wei Wuxian was expecting it or not, Jin Ling's fist came flying at him. ]

[Oh now he's just laughing, with a hint of bitterness as some emotions bubble up. Biting words he does want to say regarding things Jin Ling's maternal grandmother always spat, but doesn't, or rather can't thanks to the kitsune's interference.

The kitsune also just lets him get punched as well.

You deserved that one, he's right you know. Don't you ever learn?
Shut up.]

Your uncle is an idiot.

[ Jin Ling doesn't want to hear at this point. There are plenty of people he can list off the top of his head that don't think that way. Most people can also agree with his assessment.

So rather than giving the other the satisfaction of yelling at his deflection, he decides it's better to just show it with action. His hand feels a little numb from where he punches. He wasn't expecting Wei Wuxian to take the hit but that is soon explained when he hears the fox speak to him. ]

Of course he is-- always spouting nonsense!

[A flick of the ear with annoyance, not even thinking about letting his host take control back until the teenager is calmer. Although Wuxian himself is growing more and more agitated, though he knows the fox does this enough that he's stopped fighting it. Especially with people like Jin Ling.]

He's always trying to fight back as well, and say those things. We've seen his memories, he has people proud of him... the moron.

Though, maybe both of you should calm down and not try and kill one another with your words.

[for the sake of his own sanity and not having to keep control of his host.]

[ Jin Ling is still seething a bit. It's a miracle that the wolf didn't decide to stop him either. It was probably entertained and wanted to watch their outcomes before interfering. Since the fox had stepped in, it probably didn't need to.

Jin Ling on the other hand, was still boiling a little but huffs unhappily as he crossed his arms, still visibly angered but not about to throw another punch at Wei Wuxian, for now. He's just really upset that his uncle keeps coming up with these stories, saying that no one in his family was proud of him. Even Jin Ling himself, is quite respectful and fond of how knowledgeable well versed Wei Wuxian is. Even if he has a terrible personality to boot. ]

The biggest moron! I know that! As if anyone would believe those words to begin with.

[ His mouth twitches briefly. ]

Who's killing who with words? I'm just stating the facts!
