012 ♐ Video ♐ I sit and spew my guts out to the open air 'cause no one wants to hear a drunken fool

[codename_duchess]

[For a split second there is darkness, and a muffled "Shit, hold on - hold on, I got it" in Archer’s voice. When he gets his hand off the camera and holds the communicator up properly he’s in his natural state (drunk), behaving normally (drinking), leaning up against a chair propping up Gary’s feet.] Hey Barge, help us out with something.

[Gary is draped over both of the chairs in Archer’s room and endeavoring to take up as much space as is humanly possible. He flips the camera a lazy salute. He is also drunk. His sunglasses are on his head. It’s a party.] We wanted to know, what are some things you’ve done? Or haven’t done? What- what are the things -

[He trails off into giggling. Archer guffaws, raising a tall glass filled with a thick pale green substance in a toast.] Mmmm. So. - Yeah, anyway, we’re playing a game. And we’re going for the record, right, buddy?

I’ve no fucking idea, [Gary replies, grinning like an idiot and finishing off his own glass.]

Jesus Christ, really? We’ve been playing this for - holy shit, four hours and eight minutes. Do you seriously think anyone’s ever played Never Have I Ever for this long before? [Archer pauses thoughtfully.] Have any of you ever played Never Have I Ever for four hours and eight minutes? [He anticipates a no, raising his Green Russian expectantly.] We’re kinda running out of questions.

[Gary reaches down to swat at Archer’s shoulder to get his attention.] Oh, waitwaitwait. Never have I ever kept a Never Have I Ever game going this long!

Except you totally have now! [Archer greets this with a cheer, punching the air as he drains down the rest of the drink in one go.]

[OOC: Truth flood joint post with this_corrosion! Both Gary and Archer are affected. Replies may come from either or both of them.]

These. [Gary says, gesturing to his first Green Russian of the night,] These are dangerous. Who the fuck came up with this?

[codename_duchess]

That'd be Pam. She grew up on a dairy farm and always uses heavy cream, so I do a modified version.

[this_corrosion]

Hm, God bless Pam. I've only had absinthe the once, woke up in the boot of someone's car. Wasn't locked or anything, still don't know what happened there.

[sickjoke]

Gary.

This is not an okay way to handle the pub ban.

[this_corrosion]

M'not in the pub.

[Apparently he found his communicator somewhere. It's supposed to be on video, but all you can see is the ceiling of Archer's cabin and part of a sleeve.]

[sickjoke]

And you are not with me, either. We're going to need a clarifying of the rules, Gary.

[myresponsibility]

Why would you want to?

[codename_duchess]

Why wouldn't you want to?

[myresponsibility]

Because alcohol poisoning, giving people way too much information about your life, running out of stupid questions to ask... I could go on.

[youwillgotohell]

What in the world is Never Have I Ever?

[codename_duchess]

We can demonstrate!

Tell me something you've never done. Anything.

[youwillgotohell]

I don't know. The Barge is a world of experiences. [s a r c a s m.]

Hi Morgana!

constructive threadjacking 102

[codename_duchess]

Yeah, hi!

[ichoosefight]

I've never played Never Have I Ever for four and a half hours.

[ That answers all of his questions nicely, she thinks. ]

[this_corrosion]

We haven't either. No drinking.

Ask another one!

[ichoosefight]

Okay... [ she's done a lot of things, ok, give her a second. ]

Never have I ever taken off another woman's bra.

pretty sure I'll be using this icon in repeat for this

[la_belle_rogue]

[Rogue is trying valiantly to not just crack up at her inmate. Shouldn't encourage him. But she's smiling really hard. ]

Four hours huh? Ya feelin' alright there, Archer?

[She knows he's a drinker of epic proportions, but she does have to check.]

[codename_duchess]

Four hours and eight minutes! Nine. And still going strong! WOOOOO!

Um, yeah. Why wouldn't I?

[mistconduct]

Never have I ever had sexual feelings for anyone's dad, Gary.

[this_corrosion]

[This is so hilarious he can't even handle it.]

No, no wait. I don't know about that one, because does having sexual feelings about yourself count? I don't know if I'm a dad, but it's possible.

[agoodboyreally]

[He hasn't figured this one out yet, but assumes it means anyone affected can't tell lies; he's certainly come up with at least one or two in the meantime. (Czeslaw, that isn't how it works.) He knows he can dissemble, at least, and gapes at both of them.]

So you tell the truth as part of a game?

[codename_duchess]

[Neither have Archer and Gary, really. The combined fun of the game and the effects of the Green Russians they've been drinking like water makes the truth come to Archer easily enough without outside influence.]

Uh. Yeah? You talk about stuff you haven't done, and anyone who has done it has to drink. You'll play it in a couple years, probably.

[spam for Rogue]

[codename_duchess]

[This flood - at least he thinks it's this flood - sucks. Combining it with the truly inhuman amount of alcohol he's ingested, it leads him to an awkward place of truth that he is, luckily, a bit too wasted to clearly appreciate.

And as one does when sad and drunk, he pounds on his warden's door and pushes inside as soon as she answers.]

Rogue. Rogue, nobody loves me.

[spam for Rogue]

[la_belle_rogue]

[When she opens the door, she's not really that surprised it's Archer. But she watches him a little wide eyed as he staggers in past her. She shuts the door and sort of shadows him cautiously, watching to see any signs he might fall over, or break something, or both.]

What brought this on?
