Trash Squad Day 5 - TRUTH OR DARE

[chinhotta]

Mornin' sweethearts! Come on down to the cafeteria!

[ Today the cafeteria looks different again, most of the tables cleared out and the space full of pillows, blankets, and love sacs of various sizes. Around the time everyone gets there, Vanilla pops up in the front of the room.. ]

Do you know what one of the most important things in a relationship is? Honesty! Do you know what some others are? Trust! Self-confidence! Communication! A sense of adventure! Sexual compatibility!

...What was I talking about? Oh, right! Today's event is truth or dare! You know how it works! Find someone and ask them if they want a truth or a dare! If they pick truth, ask them any question and they have to tell the truth. If they pick dare, tell them do do anything and they have to do it. Then it's their turn. Try to ask around!

And... I've got something special for you!

[ Vanilla pulls a sheet off a table to reveal a bunch of tiny plastic bottles, each about the size to hold one sip of liquid. ]

The blue ones are Vanilla's Famous Vanilla-Flavored One-Shot Truth Serum! One truthful statement guaranteed! The red ones are Sarsaparilla's Tequillas! Pure liquid courage - give yourself the extra kick you need to get out of your comfort zone!

...You don't have to drink these if you trust each other and are confident in yourself, but in the spirit of honesty in our relationship, I'm willing to make a trade. If all these shots are drunk by nighttime, I'll give you proof the people eliminated and disqualified are safe!

[ The truth serum, as you would expect, makes you tell the truth. The "tequillas" aren't actually alcoholic, but they do make you feel much braver. Both generally only last the length of one answer/dare, but some of them might last a little longer... chinchillas don't practice good quality control. ]

—Oh, by the way! Your scores are displayed in your tablets now! They don't include your second dates yet, but we'll keep them updated!

I know. But I will not waste my time thinking of them when I only have you with me for a few more days. Even if you have come to love others here, like Suoh, even if you love them more... I will occupy my thoughts with you.

[artisticliberty]

Honda, then. I choose truth.

[lacrimose]

If you trust me, I can show you.

[Not that there's much room to fly around inside a school, but maybe if he uses the gym or the auditorium...?]

[dismemberthename]

Yusuke-?

[reaching to stroke his cheek]

Sure, I love other people too, but it's not about loving someone more or less.

[artisticliberty]

[lifts his head enough for that, his eyes red around the edges]

I... only mean that... if you would rather be with someone else, I will not keep you. I realize that my desires are selfish, and if I am being perfectly honest, I would want to spend as much time as possible with Suoh, too. And if either of you objected to my involvement, then... well. I won't push my own desires onto either of you.

[dismemberthename]

Are you listening to yourself? You're not the one being selfish here...

[runs his hands soothingly down Yusuke's back.]

Let's calm down a little, okay? Then, we can go ask Suou about it together. Straightforwardly. Without leaving room for making assumptions like that. It'll be putting him on the spot, and I feel bad about that, but... we don't have much time to waste, right?

[artisticliberty]

[he shivers a little from the contact, already worked up emotionally, so the physical contact just heightens everything]

... very well. I can agree to that.

[dismemberthename]

Okay. Then let's do that, after we wind down a bit. You wanna sit?

[assent]

[ I should have too is on the tip of her tongue, but she keeps her mouth shut this time. ]

I hope it all works out for you. [ When she turns back around it looks like she’s fine anyway, that her mind isn’t half occupied with what Sudoh said and how she relates to it. She just looks hopeful for him. ]

Thank you for your help. I will take a truth this time, I think.

[dismemberthename]

I'll miss you too, you know, when this is over.

[just. straightforwardly.]

So I'm wishing you good luck as well.

[TRUTH OR DARE CAN FUCKING WAIT]

[lacrimose]

[Slouching over with his usual grumpy expression.]

Hey. I need to find out stuff we have in common.

[assent]

[ whY IS THIS HAPPENING ]

I feel the same. It is tiring but I am trying to make the most of the time I have here with everyone.

[ Her response is still pretty guarded though in all fairness. ]

[lacrimose]

Hottest person here?

[slice_of_life]

... [blinks]

Wow... why don't you use that as a topic for a poem? I think... that's almost profound, in parts.

[dismemberthename]

Yeah, s'definitely all people all the time. I've never been a super social person, so it's a lot. But let's do our best with the time we have, yeah?

[lacrimose]

[He sits up from where he'd been laying around dozing, arms linked behind his head.]

Not yet. Guess they really want us to drink as many of those bottles as we can.

[artisticliberty]

Yes.

[he's gonna wobble over to a love sac and collapse into it before his legs give out]

[dismemberthename]

[tagging along, curling up in the one beside it. giving him space but not like, Avoiding him at all, keeping an eye on him.]

[artisticliberty]

[looking at him like a kicked puppy :( why u not sit with me]

[dismemberthename]

[honey

okay crawls to share the one he's on, tucking himself up beside him.]

[artisticliberty]

[wraps an arm around sudoh and presses his face to his hair, inhaling. he's still pretty shaky, but he's tethering onto this to ground him]

[dismemberthename]

[smells more like iron and furry critters than a, like, human, but yusuke probably had already noticed that what with all the contact. sudoh takes this as a signal to snuggle up close, careful to keep his arms tucked up close to his body, letting Yusuke latch onto him as he will but taking care not to make him feel trapped.]

[lacrimose]

Yeah, Reyson sent me. I can fly up and get you down easily, but you have to trust me.

[aka: pls don't freak out if he becomes a giant winged hellbeast]

[artisticliberty]

[he really just associates those smells with sudoh at this point tbh. he lets one hand drift into his lap and lace his fingers with sudoh's, holding his hand.

and he just stays like that for a while, until--]

Oh, I forgot about the game.

[dismemberthename]

[handholdinggggg]

Ah. Same here. Well, whatever. This was definitely more important.
