Who: Everyone
When: Day 13, afternoon
Where: Public Lounge

[ Guess who's trying to earn as many Sparks as possible? This guy. So on Day 13, sometime during the day each Team may have received a quick visit from this guy, encouraging them to come to the public lounge during the afternoon to partecipate on a get to know each other exercise. For anyone who asks, he'll explain on very generic terms that it's just a game of truth or dare or kiss, and he's going to try his best to convince people to actually show up.

For those who do show up at the public lounge in the afternoon, he's going to explain the basic set up ]

All right, so, the whole thing is pretty simple. Usually, I guess there should be something to spin or help with randomly selecting people, but that's going to get complicated, so let's skip that one. You see someone you want to get to know, you partner up with 'em.

Here's the rules. You ask your partner to pick Truth or Dare, and ask or provide your challenge accordingly. As the person who's been asked or challenged, you will have the option to back out of it by kissing your partner instead. Doesn't have to be anywhere specific, there's kids here.

You won't win anything out of it except, huh, my gratitude for taking part, I guess.

[ Have you considered Crow yes? ]

All right! Truth or Dare then?

Dare, please.

[She says it promptly, but not so much s to seem desperate]

I dare you to give someone a massage.

[doesn't even miss a beat.]

Will you do?

[ He grins. ]

Of course~

[i can't believe thi]

Where would be suitable?

Lady's choice!

...Perhaps your room, then? a bed would be best. If you find that acceptable.

[a massage bed would be EVEN BETTER and she is actually internally struggling not to buy one just to do this stupid dare because she's such a huge bloody perfectionist.]

Sure, that's acceptable to me. I'll lead the way.

Before that...ah, do you recall your name?

No, but someone else said they did and I figured I'd go with it. You can call me Crow.

It is a pleasure, Crow-san.

[She curtsies dipping her head.]

You may call me 80H.

80H, huh? That's an interesting name.

[ He's leading the way to Licorice's cabin as he's talking. ]

Thank you. You are literally the only one who believes so.

[she's noT FUCKING. BITTER.

okay but her tone, while still exceedingly polite is both a little dry, but also mildly surprised. She did not expect to hear that at all.]

Why the hell would anyone have a problem with it?

[ He's genuinely baffled tbqh. ]

[bless u]

Some of it is complicated, but for the most part, because it does not sound "human".

[ He shakes his head. ]

Sounds like bullshit if you ask me. Who cares about that stuff? If you're happy with it, that's all that matters.

...That is kind of you to say, Crow-san. Thank you. Even if you do not have to.

I didn't say it 'cause I thought I had to. We're here.

[ He opens up the Licorice cabin door for her. ]

[yeah, but listen.]

Ah, thank you.

[she hesitates before she crosses the threshold. has she pissed off licorice? nah should be ok. maybe

who the fuck knows she's going for it.]

After you show me to your quarters, please excuse me for a minute, there is something I need.

[would suck if she walked in

Huh? Sure thing.

[ He motions for her to follow, then walks her over to his room. ]

It's this one right here.

Thank you. I will not be long. Please take this time to prepare.

[True to her word, she leaves and arrives again, knocking on his door.]

[ He's stripped out of his regular clothes and is now just wearing his team-regulated pajama bottoms, which yes means he is shirtless and yes means he is built. Also [spoilers for TOCS2] his chest has a scar on it that, if 80H pays attention, has a matching one on his back.

He opens the door with a grin. ]

You were right, that wasn't too long at all.

[do you ever think like, something is a good idea at the time, but then you are all at once faced with unequivocal, irreconcilable failure?

because boy howdy is she.

This was a mistake. A delightful, chiseled mistake.

But to her immense credit, she doesn't stare. Her eyes never wander. crow could be dressed like a priest for all that she reacts because she's not elaine, even if she has, incidentally, fucked a priest

anyway.]

I apologise for keeping you waiting all the same.

[she dips her head politely in courteous apology.

don't think about the collarbones]

[ Is it the same priest Elaine fucked-- ]

Getting started will be apology enough.

[ He's definitely not upset, but like hell is he gonna get caught in an apology loop from her. He walks over to his bed and sits down. ]

So how should we do this?
