BiT live

Who: Cosmo
Where: Lobby
When: 436

[Cosmo is rocking a look. Minus the plague mask, it's just his normal mask. He's got a set of fruity drinks in front of him, and he's leaning back with a drink in hand.]

"Risk" and "Reward".

Half of these drinks are non-alcoholic, most of the rest are quite potently alcoholic, a few are drugged.

The risk is obvious, the reward is engaging in the live. Or perhaps in avoiding the traps.

The drugs are one of three kinds--a potent psychedelic, a numbing agent, and something to get you a little hot under the collar. Do take it elsewhere if you get that last one.

[He sips his drink.]

Of course some say the best way to win at gambling is not to play, but where's the fun in that?

((OOC: tag any toplevels with the aphro as nsfw and you can have like, multiple if you want. I'll toplevel Lahabrea to talk to but you can also just engage with drugs.))

I suppose you're right. The drugs can't possibly be that bad.

[wayofthehousekeeper]

It wouldn't be enough to be problematic.


Would it?

[abovefate]

[ he's just smiling ]

No, of course not. So why not go ahead and try to drink as much as possible? If you make it to 8, I'll give you 200 points.

[wayofthehousekeeper]

Eight... sips?

[ plz sir have mercy. ]

[abovefate]

[ :) ]

Eight glasses.

[wayofthehousekeeper]

[ w h e e z e ]

I guess... there's no better time to find out my tolerance...

[ This is how he dies. ]

[abovefate]

Of course. The knowledge will serve you well in the future, won't it? And that'll give you extra points as well!

[ because 200 points are totally worth it ]

[wayofthehousekeeper]

[ When you have zero idea of what the income rate is in a new place, 200 points is totally worth it. ]

Well this probably isn't the worst decision I could make.

[abovefate]

Of course not. I'm sure there will be many worse ones to come in this place.

[wayofthehousekeeper]

That'sh concerning.

[ Going for drink two. ]

[abovefate]

On my first day here I died after being hit by a train. Compared to that, a few drinks can't be so bad, right?

Ah, though that reminds me. I don't think I've seen you around before. Are you new?

[wayofthehousekeeper]

[ He died?? ]

[ Quick brain we gotta say something appropriate. ]

Oh... 'm sorry for your loss.

I'm Aster new.

[abovefate]

Tsukiakari. A pleasure to meet you.

Now - where were we? Six left still, right?

[wayofthehousekeeper]

Yeeeeees.

[ Reaching for another. ]

[abovefate]

Ah, so brave! I'm impressed.

[wayofthehousekeeper]

I'm tryin' my best.

[ Is he going to make it through this gl- no. ]

[at_heart]

[ Scaramouche, ]

[abovefate]

[ he's smiling.

not his fault this guy is cheap!!! ]

[at_heart]

[ Ugh. Privately resigning to spotting Aster like 1k points or something after this. ]

I'm pretty sure he's going to throw up long before he actually gets to 'eight'.

[abovefate]

Such little faith in your unitmate! It must be disheartening.

[at_heart]

I'm not really a 'faith' kinda guy, but I'm pretty sure that's not the word you use for 'total denial of what's staring you right in the face'.
