Now Kiss!
Who: The Entire (Adult*) Population of the Grove
What: Spin the Bottle Round Three
When: Somewhere in Magic Month
Where: The Inn Lobby
Warnings: Magic will probably go haywire because what's funnier than your emotions spiking and making your windy magic go woosh
*Younger muses can set up their own Spin the Bottle behind the Inn or whatever. Be some punk little rebels I don't care, I'm not your dad.
After two months of terror, it's time for a little whimsy — or so Luca Aurelius says, at least. And since Ain is a perpetual bad influence on him, Luca defaults to the most menacing game he knows: spin the bottle.
The rules are simple, plop down in the middle of a circle and get comfortable. Or maybe you got roped into this by a friend and now you're trying to put on a brave face? Either way, it's time to wait: the bottle will land on you eventually, right?. At that point, the rules are simple: kiss!
You can be brave about it and lock lips, or something mildly more. Or if you're trying to play it cool, a kiss on the hand or cheek should suffice. Luca isn't really enforcing any strict rules. The bastard isn't even playing, what the hell.
(Or, to put it all simply and break the fourth wall: drop your character. Add a little description about their behavior/demeanor prior to the kiss, if you want. Then, wait for someone to tag you, while you do some tagging out of your own! Spinning the bottle is a mutual affair, after all. Just remember to take any escalations off comms and to your inboxes, you fucking menaces)
Hope you're ready to resolve some of that tension you've been ignoring!

I didn't, but... [Looks at Allen. Looks at the bottle. S h r u g s.] I don't mind.

He’s only slightly rattled, but very much in that way he was shown something rapidly and not fully able to process everything. He knows there was a lot to unpack there. And he is t going to try, thanks—
He keeps that eye shut, while he hides his Innocence’d hand behind him. Not because he’s afraid to show it off, but mostly just so it doesn’t accidentally get touched by Mystery. This is a fun party game and he doesn’t want to accidentally stab a Not-Evil demon just because his hand is mad about their existence.
He holds out his human one to Mystery, then. ]
May I have your name first? It feels improper for a kiss without one.
I’m Allen.

Or he won't. That's fine, too, probably.
He's got a perfectly human hand being offered to him, which he takes - and considers kissing it just like that, but- oh, he wants introductions, okay.]
Mystery.
[Sorry, Allen. He knows.]
