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!

His expression softens, but there's something unreadable in his eyes when they part.]
Do your best not to let anybody take that smile from you. Would be a shame for it to disappear.
no subject
Are you worried? You shouldn't be! I have been through much in my life and death! If that much has not kept me down, nothing will!
[Give him like an hour though, and he'll probably excuse himself to hide any actual feelings he tries to have. Don't worry about it!]

[Wolfwood sighs, sitting back a little to give him some space.]
You sayin' you've been through so much, yet you're still smiling like that...that's the part that's concerning, I guess.
no subject
Perhaps it is because I have been through so much that I maintain this outlook. I am not the only person who has suffered. Still, knowing how dire things an be, it only seems fair to maintain good spirits — so that others will not succumb to despair!
