Drank live

[noteablekiller]

Who: whoever
Where: lobby
When: like a half hour after the game starts

[would you like to drink? Codex has an inkling you might like to drink.]

[he has the usual menu out, though the prices have gone up a bit:

All Drinks: 25 points

He has his deck of cards nearby on the table being used as a bar, though, so he is in play.

He speaks into the camera]

If anyone would like to come down to the lobby for drinks while they discuss the game, I'll be here for a few hours.


[Feel free to use an overflow post for the game, reply to Codex's top level (or another members of Baritones if they appear) to buy a drink]

Yes, you are truly in love with your volleyball.

... the heart is a lonely hunter.

[ Does actually look slightly self-conscious here ]

[shutthefoxup]

It is the best sport, afterall. The secret doesn't have anything to do with volleyball though.

Mmmm...."You're lonely" would be too literal with that clue, huh?

[furrytailprince]

Far too literal.

Is this secret about you and your brother?

[shutthefoxup]

Nope.

Mmmm....is it a love life secret?

[furrytailprince]

I suppose you could say that.

... Is yours related to a particular fancy?

[shutthefoxup]

Fancy?

[furrytailprince]

Something you enjoy.

[shutthefoxup]

Mmm...it's related to everything, but moreso the things I care about.

Does itttttttttt have to do with not wanting to be single?

[furrytailprince]

It does not. I am not so desperate.

... someone you care about?

[shutthefoxup]

I would hope not. People are really quick to get into relationships here though. I don't know how people have time to date multiple people. Not judging just....how do they have time and energy to date one person let alone like five?

Nope!

[furrytailprince]

I cannot understand it either. But then I suppose I am more discerning in my tastes.

Your unit?

[shutthefoxup]

Mmmm....does the hunter part have to do with looking for something? Like acceptance or affection?

Getting colder.

[furrytailprince]

The hunter is not me.

Is it about an action you would take?

[shutthefoxup]

I'm so bad at this game, it's awful. Haa.... Is the hunter a person though?

It's about things I do, yes.

[furrytailprince]

I think you are doing better than me. I am completely lost.

And yes they are a person.

[shutthefoxup]

Is it a reference to how animals hunt? So solitary hunting?

I think you’re overthinking it. Mine are mostly simple secrets.

[furrytailprince]

A type of animal that engages in that.

Something to do with friendship?

[shutthefoxup]

You’re happier being a wolf?

Focus on burning.

[furrytailprince]

I would not say that anymore. There are things humans can do that wolves cannot.

You want to set off fireworks?

[shutthefoxup]

Well, my initial animal was a fox. Foxes hunt on their own. It feels self-involved to say, but is it that you have a crush on me?

Opposite.

[furrytailprince]

I should think that would not be a secret to you anymore. But it should be close enough to count for the real one.

[ Hands over card that says "has crush on Fox," though he looks away as he does so. The flush is probably still obvious. ]

C-Congratulations, you are the only one to figure it out. Of course you did have an advantage...

And, ah, you don't like fireworks?

[shutthefoxup]

Fox too, huh? At least you have a brand.

Warmer.

[furrytailprince]

[ Covers his face with one hand, his tail whipping about ]

Do not put it so churlishly! You both have different qualities. Besides, he doesn't know and I do not intend to tell him. He has enough on his plate. Enough suitors as well. It is simply an inconsequential feeling. Which is the only reason I feel comfortable sharing it with you.

... you don't like fire in general?

[shutthefoxup]

I'm just teasing. Your secret is safe.

[Handing him a card]

I've been anxious around fire since the game where I almost...well...you know.

[furrytailprince]

I am not afraid of you sharing it, I know you would not. I just do not want you to misunderstand it... To think it diminishes what I told you before.

[ His tail stops and his ears droop at the memory ]

... ah, that is right... it seems so long ago...
