"Wine" Tasting and Drinking Games

[superjoanjett]

Anyone showing up for class today would notice some ominous bottles filled with clear greenish liquid sitting on the bar.

"So. Today's wine choice is absinthe," Jessica began. "And yeah, I know. It's not wine. Whatever. We're fucking drinking it."

She pulled off the cap and started to pour a glass for everyone. "The taste profile is that shitty black jelly bean you accidentally ate with a hint of dusty herbs that someone keeps in their pantry but only break it out during thanksgiving dinner so they don't really taste like they should."

"Oh and supposedly it's supposed to make you hallucinate but I guess that's a bullshit urban myth. So if you start seeing fairies or whatever then they're probably real. As for tonight's drinking game we're all going to pretend we're at some teenager sleepover and play truth or dare."

Because the combination of absinthe and truth and dare is a chemical reaction that Jessica wanted to see happen.

"Let's start shall we?"

Being truthful.

Or daring.

This should be totally fine, right?

Truth or Dare

[superjoanjett]

Choose truth or dare! Then you either have to be truthful or do whatever the dare that was challenged to you!

Talk to Jessica

[superjoanjett]

Who even though she's a professional drinker is beginning to wonder if her choice of alcohol was a good idea.

Even Faye knew that this shit supposedly made you hallucinate.

Which was why she was going to go ahead and take a double, yes please. Even if the licorice taste really didn't do it for her.

Re: Truth or Dare

[flourish_or_perish]

"Dare!" Faye called out with exactly zero hesitation.

Truth was obviously the worse choice. God. Never. No.

Re: Truth or Dare

[superjoanjett]

"Seven minutes in heaven with Stark," Jessica said pointing Faye toward what she thought was a closet.

Might be a closet.

Who knows?

Re: Lecture/Socialize/Try the absinthe

[superjoanjett]

Even Jessica knew what a double could do to most normal people and eyed Faye warily.

"You sure you want to drink that much?"

[1000yearstoolate]

"That looks like poison," Seivarden said, stating the obvious.

She probably wasn't going to finish her glass.

Re: Truth or Dare

[1000yearstoolate]

"Truth."

Seivarden preferred not having to do anything stupid, and she wasn't above lying in a drinking game.

Re: Lecture/Socialize/Try the absinthe

[superjoanjett]

"That pretty much describes all alcohol," Jessica pointed out.

And she was on her second glass at this point.

Re: Lecture/Socialize/Try the absinthe

[1000yearstoolate]

"You have a point," Seivarden said. "Let me rephrase: that looks more poisonous than most alcohol."

Re: Lecture/Socialize/Try the absinthe

[superjoanjett]

"Oh yes, absolutely," Jessica said with a wry smile. "You should have more."

"I have a strong constitution," Faye shared.

Which mostly meant that she didn't know her limits, but she'd be fine. Ish. She'd been fine before.

Re: Truth or Dare

[flourish_or_perish]

"I don't know what that is," Faye replied.

Which was an obvious lie -- she could figure it out pretty easily -- especially given how annoyed she looked about this.

Not the Stark part. The part where now Jessica had turned on her, like radio squirrel, and was encouraging things. How dare.

Re: Lecture/Socialize/Try the absinthe

"Oh, this is a mistake," Nick said, good-naturedly.

Because he knew from experience!

Re: Lecture/Socialize/Try the absinthe

[superjoanjett]

"Oh well in that case," Jessica said pouring Faye a triple. "Please enjoy with my compliments."

Re: Lecture/Socialize/Try the absinthe

[stykera]

"That's very green," Stark said uncertainly. And that bottle was ominous. Why was there a skull?

Re: Lecture/Socialize/Try the absinthe

[superjoanjett]

"Oh, absolutely," Jessica said pouring a nice sized drink for Nick with an amused look. "I think I should just change the class name to terrible decisions enabled by alcohol."

Re: Lecture/Socialize/Try the absinthe

[gotyoucookie]

"I think we all knew that when we signed up for the class." It was why they did it, really.
