There was a farm that had a dog

[heritrix]

[Throughout the day on Monday, everyone still left in the building will find a handwritten invitation delivered to them at some point or another, along with a bonus sheet of paper.

WHO: You!
WHAT: Fun and games!
WHERE: The roof
WHEN: 6 o'clock

Hey, everyone. It's been quiet around here lately, so let's keep our spirits up and have some fun! The sun might not be shining, but we still have a great view of the stars, and somewhere warm to watch them from. Food and drink will be provided, so just bring yourself (and your bingo sheet!), and we'll enjoy each other's company.

- Rin Tohsaka

There aren't any decorations upstairs, but there will be food and drink as promised, and lots of variety. Curry, soup and sandwiches, parfaits, homemade potato chips, a cheese plate; Rin went all out. For sweets, there's chocolate chip cookies and a lemon meringue pie, with milk or juice (that looks like it was made from scratch) to wash it down with. Alcohol too, if that's your thing. There's even a bloody mary for Elda, somehow.

As you might guess from the invitation, the bonus piece of paper delivered with the invites is a blank bingo sheet! Whether it's when the invites are delivered or when they come to the party, Rin will give everyone instructions on how to fill it out, and how the game is played.

HUMAN GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER BINGO

1. Fill out the sheet with 24 simple facts about yourself! They should be anything you're comfortable sharing with others, and most importantly they must be true
2. Share sheets with one another! If you have something in common with what's on another person's sheet, you can sign off on that square.
3. Players may sign up to two squares on one another's sheets, but only two! Normally you'd only collect a single signature, but this is a small group.
4. When one row has five signatures horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, that's a BINGO!
5. Whoever has the most BINGOs at the end of the night wins!

That should about cover it. But yeah, it's a game designed for the group to maybe get to know each other a little better. Discussion is encouraged, not just for what you have in common, but what you don't! What's most important is everyone have fun.]

SCORESHEET

[heritrix]

[Make your own top levels for threading, but if you want a handy place to link your bingo sheet/keep track of the signatures on it, you can reply OOC here!]

[matchbreaker]

Elda's bingo sheet and signatures can be replied here/edited onto this/idek how this works.

Adelina's card, to be edited with any updates!

[matchbreaker]

[ ... The bloody mary is appreciated, even if it's sort of weird. She sniffs it a few times experimentally and then takes a sip and...

... not the worst.

Well, with that done, she'll get her sheet in order, and she goes fro broad. She has some unique things, right? So let's just go broad, because then they'll have to sign it. Some unique, some not unique... and the positioning... She's focusing on that a lot so you might see her fretting about that.

But then once it's out and around- ]

So let's get signing these. You got anything fun there?

[ Her own is sure a thing. ]

[heritrix]

[Rin has a glass cup which she's sipping juice from primly, despite using a silly straw. Mrrrr.]

Most of the ones I have in common with you are depressing.

[There's actually several she could sign as well, though she's trying to narrow it down to just two. She could go with unusual ones, right? Or something Elda doesn't know about.]

[bloodisthicker]

[aw yiss. muthafuckin chocolate chip cookies.

anyway, you know... why not be kind of glib about some of his trauma. because you know? this is probably the key to moving on.]

Well, this should be fun. After all, there's only so much you can learn about someone in a month, right?

[matchbreaker]

[ . . . Well, you know what, she'll circle the younger sibling one and sign her name. ]

Golly, how'd hunting even come up. I didn't know people still did that.

[evilfrenzy]

[Rideaux picks up Tarrlok's card and...well his eyes widen almost immediately. Holy shit the first one. So his theory about last Sunday must have been true, since...

There's a pause, but you know what, fuck it. He's signing off on dead.]

You're getting this only because I can't believe you actually put it on your card.

[notaccurate]

[Luca is looking at Tarrlok's card, then at his own. And then he goes back and forth a few times.]

...actually I think we are opposites on a lot of these.

[bloodbiter]

[Her eyes widen at a few of those points, but. After a moment, she gives a smirk and writes her name under 'father issues'.]

I'm not surprised there's more than one person here who can say that.

[heritrix]

[As the hostess of this little party, Rin's one of the first people here. After all the cooking she's done today you'd think she'd be worn out, but she's actually bursting with energy! Seems like she got the hang of it after helping Hibiki out all those weeks ago; it probably helped that she kept it to a lot of great tasting, but simple dishes.

Once everyone's gotten some food and any questions have been dealt with, she'll leap into the game with gusto. Rin's bingo sheet was pre-prepared the night before.]

If you can't find any matches, we can test out the ones in the bottom corners.

[hesperos]

I'm pretty sure we'll be able to find matches just fine.

[ Heeeeey Rin, guess who it is that's decided to drop in with some food and is ready to play! He'll peer over, and, huh. ]

You like sleeping in too, huh?

[bloodisthicker]

[...he signs on honors student, because the point is to go for things you probably don't know about each other, right...]

...I'm admittedly curious about some of these that I don't share with you are all about, but.

[hesperos]

[ Here we go.

Yuri will be sitting around, and lounging all casual-like in here. His stuff is here again. So what if it's simple, he is just like that ok. ]

Isn't this a game old people play?

[ Yuri's not complaining, not at all, judging by the smirk on his face and the fact that he's playing. Ayy. ]

[matchbreaker]

Well, not all of us are so young, you know. Though it's ironic it's one of the youngest who came up with this.

[ Elda you could pass for one of the teenagers if your mouth isn't open.

... but all the same, let's look over Yuri's card now. Hmmmmm. ]

[bloodisthicker]

Only if it's for actual money, I think.

[...

he signs off on the wanted man one, because uhhhh, maybe he should've left a note.......]

[evilfrenzy]

[This is the sort of icebreaker that Rideaux can get behind, honestly. He does like learning things about people, but it was just kind of awkward when framed in a speed-dating theme. And even after two months, he feels like he can still learn a lot from those who are also still here.

It doesn't take him too long to get himself settled into a spot. He's got a sandwich and some potato chips, along with a drink. And oh, his card is here too of course! Written in red, because of course it is. He did his best to print clearly (he's not the cleanest writer, stereotypical of a doctor).]

This should be good. I do wonder what we'll end up having as matches.

[heritrix]

[Oooh, color her interested. Looking over the page, Rin signs on "has an inherited ability" almost right away and looks back up at Rideaux.]

Okay, if you were comfortable enough writing it down, I have to hear about this one.

[bloodbiter]

[She walks in shortly after the gathering starts; she might not be familiar with the concept of bingo, but after discovering how it's played, she'll glance at the sheet with a bright smile before she fills it out (in an elegant script that looks nothing like my lazy image editing).

She grabs a few small sandwiches as she migrates to anyone present in the room, displaying her card.]

This is a wonderful idea, don't you think?

[matchbreaker]

Well, I won't say it's mage-girl's best idea ever, but it certainly isn't her worst either. Come on, let's see the card.

[ . . . You know is she married or a widow?

...

... She's going to sign off on the Married one anyway. ]

[notaccurate]

[Luca is there on time, but it takes him a loooong time to fill out the bingo sheet. He may have crossed off a few answers and replaced them, with quiet mutterings of 'that's no good' and 'I can't talk about that' as he does so. Clearly he's trying to think of the least-embarrassing facts about himself.

But eventually he has a sheet ready, and is ready to go around and talk to people.]

[matchbreaker]

[ She's going to sign off on the wanting to punch a dead person, natch.

But then with a smirk, she's going to point at. ]

Oh you don't like being the center of attention?

[perpend]

[This? Cabanela can get behind this.

He has his sheet with him as well as a parfait.]

Thiiis is a perfect way for us to really get to know each other!

[matchbreaker]

Oh these are frighteningly honest, Cabanela.

[ And she didn't even know most of them, what the hell.

... She'll sign off on the daughter figure one, though. ]
