everybody, put your hands up; yes, flying – imagine it like that!

[shuttermouse]

[ You know what this murderschool needs? Party games. She talked about it with Tarrlok during the afterparty and today's the day she's going to host a game of truth or dare. After that unpleasant little motive, she's sure a lot of people are going to appreciate a distraction. She's a little too old for this, but watching each other perform stupid dares should be entertaining.

So during the day, she writes a bunch of notes and slides them under everyone's doors. One also goes up on the fridge. ]

Are you looking for a distraction after yesterday's incentive? Are you just bored?
Come to the dining hall at 6 pm today!
There will be food and we'll be playing truth or dare!
- Chie Hori

[ As promised, there's food! The main attraction here is the build-your-own-parfait bar, but there's a nice assortment of other things too - yakitori made by Kyrie, Fern's mac and cheese, Sayaka's curry, plus a tea/coffee bar courtesy of Weiss. There's also a few bottles of booze Chie grabbed from the bar. Drink responsibly, please.

Have fun playing truth or dare, everyone! Remember, you can refuse a truth or a dare if you want to, but then you'll have to drink one of the shots of hot sauce Chie has prepared. Unless you're being asked to reveal what's in your envelope, then you can refuse without punishment. ]

Comments

[bloodisthicker]

[Look. He encouraged this. He should be there. En...joying.

...he's definitely eyeing those drinks as he digs into some yakitori, debating whether he should risk saying something really stupid or... you know... chill a little bit.

Hm. Decisions, decisions.]

[icysemblance]

[Weiss is decidedly not too old for this, even if she's pretending to be entirely too busy fussing over the tea and coffee to actually play.

...she's not going to refuse, though, unless it's something simply too embarrassing.]

[firstaid]

[Well, Estelle's here because she just wants to do something other than stay holed up in her room or more failed attempts at reading so... here we are. Once they're settled she'll just get this game started because it will be another interesting and hopefully fun way to get to know others.]

Um, so I suppose I'll start! Truth or dare?

[greenmamabear]

[Fern is one hundred percent grabbing some liquor to get some liquid courage for this hot mess. Not that she hates the idea, just... high school, amirite?

In any case, she'll be wallflowering, watching the others, smiling and lifting up her glass at passerby, and generally enjoying what she considers kind of absurd. But its fun.]

[matchbreaker]

So the way this works is that you do whatever I say? Okay, let's do it, truth or dare!

[ ... she's not eating or drinking anything.

As usual. You've never seen her eat anything or drink anything but some isolated waters or teas. ]

[destage]

[...Well, you know. Hopefully no one's gonna try to get people to reveal their secrets here, but she won't necessarily be surprised either way. Still, she helped out, so she may as well stick around and enjoy herself, yeah?

She's not going to wallflower, though--she'll be walking around a bit, waving anyone who doesn't look like they'll mind being bothered down with a smile.]

Hi there! Are you up for playing the game, or would you like to chat?

[greenmamabear]

Little more complicated than that.

[Yeah you know what. This is actually bugging her.]

...I'll take truth.

[evilfrenzy]

[Rideaux is here! He has brought his own alcoholic beverage with him- a direct result of the tension from yesterday's incentive reveal. Like hell is he trusting anything provided by others right now.

He settles down in a spot at the table, generally making himself approachable for the game as it's a pretty decent one. However, he can't help but comment...]

Considering what's inevitably coming, isn't this theme a bit tacky?

[...]

Ah, well. Let's have it, then.

[shuttermouse]

What kind of host would I be if I wasn't up for playing? Truth, Maizono-san.

[bloodisthicker]

...in fairness, Chie brought it up to me before that whole mess on Tuesday. So.

[...he regrets a lot right now.]

[didntgetdadslooks]

[ Angel's here! She sticks near the outer edge of the party, since... what the heck is properly socializing, that sounds fake as hell, but she'll smile at anyone who approaches her. ]

Alright, so... you want to just talk, or go right into the options?

[destage]

[Alright, that'll get a bit of a giggle.]

I wouldn't expect any less from you, Hori-san! As for the truth...hmm. What's the most embarrassing picture you've ever had taken of you?

[shuttermouse]

My parents snapped a picture of me mid-sneeze when I was eight. My face looked really weird and there was an impressive amount of snot coming out.

[shuttermouse]

Hi, Tarrlok-san. [ hey buddy it's your favourite host. ] Truth or dare?

[firstaid]

I doubt even if people were asked they would share their secrets.

[So even if this was an attempt at trickery and well, tacky, at least she wouldn't attempt to get something like a secret out of people.]

Though this is a fun way to get to know one another better.

[destage]

[...oh god, she just laughs at the mental image.]

They must have thought that was adorable! Oh my gosh, though, I'm so sorry--did they show it around to the family, or is it just something they kept in an album for you?

[It's hard to say how sorry she actually is, but she tried??]

[destage]

Let's start with a truth, Estelle-san.

[what's the worst estelle could possibly ask--]

[evilfrenzy]

[Well then. For full effect, he'll even do a semi-dramatic cringe.]

Ouch. The timing couldn't be more unfortunate.

[...maybe Jericho was listening in? That wouldn't be a surprise.]

[firstaid]

Okay...! Um, do you have a crush on anyone back home?

[Estelle is a hopeless sap when it comes to stories like these, kk.]

[evilfrenzy]

I would hope that the people here would have enough tact to not attempt to take advantage of the theme to ask.

[Looks like they're on the same page there.]

Yeah, it's not a bad ice breaker. Better than speed-dating. [Aligula.] So, did you want to do a round?

[firstaid]

I thought the questions were interesting...! [She wasn't interested in the dating aspect anyway.]

Anyway, yes, I would like to do a round. Would you like to start or would you like me to start?

[destage]

[...if that pause and kind of slack jawed expression is any indication, uh. That's.]

Ah, no, actually...I have a friend I recently reconnected with back at home that I did once, but he's just a really good friend of mine.

[At least she's honest about it.]

Shall I go next, then? Truth, or dare?

[destage]

Hey, Fern-san!

[Like heck is she gonna let you wallflower, girl, she's walking right over.]

Enjoying yourself so far?

[destage]

[Hey there, Weiss, hopefully you don't mind some company.]

...Weiss-san, if you keep fussing over the set so much, they're going to think you're not done with it.

[It's gentle, at least. It's a bit of a quiet invitation, if needed, to have someone for a distraction.]

[zomgboom]

I mean. We're, like, here for a party, right? Truth or dare?
