[video/action] I Never Game!
[ greetings, Marina. Hawke again. today she just tosses a wave at the camera. ]

Let it never be said I was good at planning... well, anything... but I came across something that sounded like a bit of harmless fun. Not that it has to stay that way. [ winks ]

It's a charming little drinking game called "I Never". And if at least half of us are passed out on the floor by the time the evening's over, I'll consider it a success. The tavern would have been my first choice, but as it met a rather sad end... shall we say around eight o'clock? In the club?

((OOC: Forward-dated action in the comments! Enjoy!))

	[ t, tiny guilty start! then he turns to face Flynn and straightens up just a little bit. ] Well -- I thought it might be nice. [ and then he notices Flynn's glass, and turns on that topic of conversation avidly ] Are you drinking? What are you having? [ please help him, Flynn! he is so lost. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Where I come from... It's important for a commoner seeking to gain status not to do anything wrong, ever. A single mistake could end my career. Alcohol would be a rather poor choice of indulgence. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ his eyebrows come together, at first thoughtful -- and then regretful. he looks at Flynn, unblinking, and then... smiles faintly. ]

It wouldn't have reflected well on me, either, back home. And besides, drinking is... something you do with friends, or at least colleagues. I didn't really have either, for a long time.

[ tiny pause, before he smiles at Suzaku and adds ]

But we're not on our worlds anymore. We're here, and... if this is something you'd like to try -- I think you should. [ the last part comes out in a bit of a rush, as if he's forcing the words out before he loses his nerve ]

	[aww. a smile for him] Well, it's not that I never have, just -- that I'm still not really comfortable with it. It doesn't feel like something to do for fun. You have tried drinking before, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I know. I sort of felt the same way. Feel the same way? I saw some people I really respect get -- very drunk, and they were really embarrassed the next morning. And the one time I tried, I woke up with an awful headache.

...But, still. I think, maybe, once in a while... and if you do it with friends, or -- even a colleague...

[ tiniest hopeful look for you, Flynn ]

--Well. I'd like that one bad experience to not be my only one, I guess.

	[awww] It definitely shouldn't be the only one. You should be able to relax and enjoy yourself! We'll -- have a beer. [one little drink can't hurt. he waves over the robot manning the bar] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	black_as_knight 2012-05-03 04:24 pm UTC (link)
	[ he brightens considerably, then hesitates. he has to make sure!! ] You're -- sure you want to? [ is it really okay :o because if it is, he will be over to the bar in the blink of an eye. all of his nerves over this experience seem to have vanished, now that he'll be sharing it with someone he trusts. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	designated_hero 2012-05-04 08:12 pm UTC (link)
	There's absolutely no harm in just one beer. [chuckling] And I'm happy to be able to share one with you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	black_as_knight 2012-05-05 12:26 am UTC (link)
	Good. [ :D ] ...Thank you. [ tiny self-conscious pause, and then he hurries over to the bar. ] Um, is there anything specific you want to try? Just a beer, right? [ what kind of beer :\|a beer IS a kind, right? like, in a bottle? maybe?? thinking hard. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	designated_hero 2012-05-09 01:27 am UTC (link)
	Just a beer, unless you have any other preference. And sit down. [amused. to the robot heading over] Two beers, I think? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	black_as_knight 2012-05-10 03:18 am UTC (link)
	[ o, oh. sitting down! of course sitting down. :\|a ] Yes, please. [ to the robot, and then he goes back to sitting there with a tiny foolish smile. ] I haven't really tried much, so. I'm not even sure what I'll like, or... What about you? (Reply to this) (Parent)
