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.))

Something like that.

[abovefate]

That's fine by me. It's additional points and entertainment all in one.

[temperedinpride]

Well, most people are a bit... cautious. But that is also interesting in its way. How much more eagerly they would try if I had drugged the drinks but not mentioned it. An oddity of human nature.

[abovefate]

It does look like some are stupid enough to try anyway.

[temperedinpride]

"Daring". They are daring enough to try.

[It doesn't do to insult people you want to drink your dodgy booze]

[abovefate]

Ah, it seems I still have a lot to learn. Daring, then.

[temperedinpride]

And speaking of dares, have you an interest in trying?

[abovefate]

I might, depending on whether it's interesting to or not. Drugs aside, I can make myself sober if I end up unlucky, so the challenge is only in tricking people into thinking they have a chance.

[temperedinpride]

Just so. But spicing it up does make it more interesting on our end.

[abovefate]

Should I challenge you then? See who ends up a little too hot before the other?

[temperedinpride]

That is assuming one of us doesn't end up numb or hallucinating first. But certainly.

[It's not like the alcohol's going to do anything if they don't want so it's just drugs roulette?]

[abovefate]

If I do end up with either of those I expect you to carry me back to the dorms swiftly.

I'll call for help for you, though.

[temperedinpride]

My, how kind. But my usual help is a bit... incapacitated. Summon Alexander than, if it is me.

[abovefate]

Is that so? And who would your usual help be? I was already planning on just calling Alexander, but now I'm so curious.

[temperedinpride]

[He gestures to the very drunk Vergil]

Usually he would be willing to carry me back. But it seems he'll need his own assistance.

[He picks up a drink though.]

[abovefate]

Oh, he's fun.

[ he'll pick up one as well, but ]

I'll let you start.

[temperedinpride]

[He knocks the drink back without hesitation.]

Alcohol, it seems.

[abovefate]

[ drinking his as well!

it's alcohol. but it is extra strong though he doesn't feel it yet ]

It seems I haven't gotten any bad effects either.

[temperedinpride]

How lucky for us both. A shame alcohol cannot do much for us if we do not wish.
