Drinking Games and "Wine" Tasting

Class today and probably for the foreseeable future was held at Caritas (Thanks Kitty!) and if Jessica felt weird about being on the other side of the bar... well it was weird for her.

After enough people showed up (she wasn't going to count) she cleared her throat and began her "lecture."

"All right. Welcome to whatever this class is called. Which is just an excuse to get drunk tonight. Which really none of you need but I'm not judging," she said as she pulled out a bottle of "wine".

"Tonight's wine," she said gesturing towards the bottle like one of the models from the Price is Right, "Is MD 20/20 Red Grape Wine. Which supposed to be wine but probably tastes like grape juice. Or a really bad version of grape juice that's been sitting in the back of the fridge that got turned off because you went away and unplugged the fridge and came back to find it fermented. Not that it has ever happened to me."

She cleared her throat which clearly indicated that it did happen to her.

"Anyway. Fuck introductions because I think I've met all of you except for Travis. Everybody say hi to Travis. Tonight's entertainment will be called 'I Never'. If you've ever went to high school and went to a party at someone's house that you don't know and needed an icebreaker, you've no doubt played the game."

And that's when she pulled out shot glasses and began pouring everyone's individual order.

"Grab your drink and make your I never statement. And just continue to make statements, I don't care."

Silver had never been picky about alcohol before, and he wasn't going to start now. Alcohol that tasted like juice? There were worse things.

Well, this was...terrible.

Rosa was going to probably have several glasses.

Look, this class was hopefully going to be a half-decent substitute for the old Drunk and Bored Club meetings, and drinking awful booze just came with that territory. It helped it feel more authentic this way.

Drink crappy alcohol. Ignore most people there.

Perfect. She approved.

"I never went to school before now." And did this count as school, really?

Would it be considered bad form if Shunsui were to tip a little from his sake jug into his glass?

Had that ever stopped him before?

(The answer, at least to that second one, was no).

Nick tried one measly sip.

"No."

He sipped it again. That's how this was gonna go.

Rosa was, as a rule, non ot a fan of any sort of game that allowed other people to get to know stuff about her or forced her to have to know stuff about other people.

But she did enjoy games where she could try to be shrewd and get people increasingly drunk.

So after a moment to consider the crowd, consider their location, and try to go back in her history to make sure she wasn't forgetting some occasion where this statement would be untrue (and if she was? So what? She was a cool person, she didn't remember things), she threw out, "I've never been to space."

"I've never been a fan of wine," Nick said.

So it made sense that he was here.

That sounded fake to Nick, but he wasn't judging.

He was drinking though.

That got an actual scoff out of Nick.

Clearly anyone who drank was looking to get drunk in class and he supported that.

And here Shunsui thought he would never find a reason to truly appreciate his time at the Academy!

Well, that wasn't true. There were plenty of reasons to appreciate his time at the academy, all of them female, but this (and his drink that went with it) was good, too.

Amaya was really torn with this one. On the one hand, it had one of those flavours that made her wonder if she just didn't get wine, but, on the other hand, it had one of those flavours that she felt she could really grow to like which explained exactly why she would probably never get wine...

Whelp, Silver could definitely drink to that one.
