[Outcast107]

William listen to everyone talk and smiled. While he wasn't big on the conversations he was just glad they were at least getting along. While he agreed there wasn't much to do, that didn't stop him from enjoying the company. Though he did hide his face a bit when they talk about letting William go visit the strippers, and the part where someone brought up that both Juliet and Sierra should strip.

He didn't know if he would be up for the first part, and no idea how to handle the second. Teammates stripping? Seem like an odd thing to do. When the drinks came Will smiled at the waitress, though he try to keep focus on her face and not her outfit. "T-thanks." He whisper to her, which earn him a flirty smile. Will grab his drink and started to sip on it. Contining listen to the people around him as he then heard something fun.

"Oh, or two truths and one lie, that one's fun too, but it might be a little difficult here."

"I'll play too..though I probably won't be very good." He smiled lightly, setting his drink down. He didn't mind the game at all and it seem far better then the current entertainment. Not wanting to get caught up in drinking, gambling, or one night stands with either the strippers or random guest. That and he didn't want to think of messing up and making himself look like a fool infront of people.

 

[Evrant-Knight]

Daniel listened as the others gave their responses, some where less then enthused about being here, as the options for entertainment that were available here didn't exactly interest them, or that it held no worth to them, Mirabelle especially. Whilst this was going on, one of the many waitresses passed them by and he beckoned her over. This one had a subtle blend of both Russian and Japanese features, making for a surprisingly attractive blend given the differences between the two peoples. She was wearing something that whilst more respectable looking, was nonetheless revealing. The lady greeted him with smile.

"[Evening. I'll have the Okinawa Soba please, with a green tea to drink.]" Daniel pointed out each item as he ordered them.

"[Certainly. Anything else?]"

"[No no, that will be all for now.]" The waitress then left giving him a flirty wink as she turned. It was around this time that Sol had made a suggestion about a game that the group could play.

"Oh, or two truths and one lie, that one's fun too, but it might be a little difficult here."

"Now this seems like it'll be interesting, though I might just sit and listen if you don't mind." Daniel said, sitting back more comfortably in his seat as he spoke.

 

[IFS]

"Uh huh, you just wanna get me out of my clothes. Totally on to you."

"Oh you know me so well," she replied with a smirk "but that doesn't change the truth of what I said, there's no reason to let scars bother you."

"Only if you want to, of course. And I'm sure we'd need to set some ground rules. But you'd be surprised about how many hunters have gotten to know each other over this, because, believe it or not, a fair amount of them are socially awkward and loners. Oh, or two truths and one lie, that one's fun too, but it might be a little difficult here."

Hmm, that could be fun, and it would be something the others would engage in. Well not all of them, as apparently Daniel would rather sit out and watch. Coward, or just boring, maybe both.

"Sounds like fun to me," she said "truth or dare that is, two truths I suppose works as well but dares are much more fun."

 

[figment of mind]

"Oh, and also, since a large part of us aren't drinking or gambling or anything, how about we play a game? A little "get to know each other" game? I mean, it's just a childish thing, and I'm sure there's already a lot you do know about each other, but it could be fun. If we add a little competition to it, of course. Some truth or dare, perhaps? I mean, some of us are already shouting challenges atop of our lungs, so why not?"

Mirabelle couldn't argue with the idea of getting to know each other better...of course, she would have to answer more about herself, something she wasn't exactly comfortable with. Still, she did come here partly for the social interactions so it was probably best to at least try this game out. After all, the more she shied away, the more these opportunities would pass her by...besides, she assumes that she could back out and not play if things started getting too uncomfortable. Once everyone else had answered, giving their approval, Mirabelle joined in, saying, "Well...okay then. I'll play too."

She still felt a little nervous about it but she presumed that the questions would all be light in spirit, not digging to deep into the others past or secrets. Of course, she couldn't discount that from happening...but she figured that just left that person a target for some deeper digging so she felt reasonably assured that nobody would try doing that, preferring to stay non-intrusive to giving up their own secrets.

'Of course...why am i doing that? It's just a game, not an interogation. Nobody else is thinking of hiding something. Now calm down, and prepare for the game...', she thought to herself. Afterwards, she began trying to get her nervousness under control, waiting for the game to start.

 

[DarkRawen]

Sol looked at the others, surprised that nearly everyone had agreed. Everyone but Daniel, but it was always easier when someone was watching either way. It had mostly been an idea he'd come up with to distract himself, but apparently they were doing it. "That's fair. Let's do truth or dare then, since you've all left it up to me. I'll go first," he said, starting to think of some ideas, what to ask and who to ask. "Oh, but not just yet." He loosened his scarf a little. "Rules. I'm not one for a lot of rules, but we should have some. For questions, most things goes, though it won't be fun if someone is purposely targeted with difficult questions. As for dares..." Sol thought a little more.

"Well, Dares. No forcing people who's said they're not drinking alcohol to drink alcohol, nothing more physical than a hug or a kiss on the cheek, not unless the one being dared says it's fine. Nothing that will get people in too much trouble, some is fine, but asking someone to pick the pockets of one of the fine gentlemen inside here, for instance, isn't the best idea. At least not if they get caught. Lastly, remember limitations, some of us are more squishy than the rest, and some can't do certain things. Just give it a bit of thought, and it'll be fine, okay?" Sol looked to the others, making sure they had gotten it before leaning backwards, holding his soda.

"Now, because he brought us here, and because his people are paying... Vik. Truth or dare?"

Sol smiled a devious smile, he already had some fun questions for the other. As for the possible dare, well, it might be a little embarrassing for the vampire, but it was more for Sol's comfort.

 

[Athol]

Snagging the waitress Daniel spoke with, before she left, he ordered a bottle of Nemiroff Lex. As long as I keep it to the low-to-mid six figures, the accountants wont ***** too much. He thought as Solomon went over the ground rules.

"Now, because he brought us here, and because his people are paying... Vik. Truth or dare?"

?Somehow I knew you were going to say that.? Viktor replied, returning Sol?s smile. ?Truth.?

 

[DarkRawen]

"Somehow I knew you were going to say that. Truth."

Sol smirked, he was a little sad that he wouldn't be able to get Vik to get him a pink straw, but this was good too. He wasn't going to start off with some question about the other's favorite color either.

"Well, it's just going to be a basic question, but I think it'll be fun regardless," he said, putting his hand on his chin. "So, let's see... What's the single most embarrassing thing you've done? And I don't mean like, slightly awkward, I mean the most mortifying, humiliating situation you've ever put yourself through."

 

[Athol]

"So, let's see... What's the single most embarrassing thing you've done? And I don't mean like, slightly awkward, I mean the most mortifying, humiliating situation you've ever put yourself through."

Viktor sat back, thought for a moment or two, then laughed to himself. ?Alright. It was 1960, I was helping mount some pulleys for a block-and-tackle up in the rafters of a warehouse we?d just bought, so I?m 30-35 meters up on the catwalk?and this isn?t some nice secure thing with hand rails and the like, it?s just a series of 12 cm wide boards laid rafter to rafter?anyways; I?m up there crawling about with a bunch of rope across my shoulders, when I hear new voices enter the building below me.? Shaking his head a bit he chuckled softly.

?I?m trying to see who?s below me, but they?re on my blind side.? He said, tapping the left side of his head. ?I try to twist a bit, while still moving forwards, miss my footing and fall. I let out a rather undignified yelp, flailed about, managed to get some of the rope both caught on a rafter, and around a leg. So here?s my big ass dropping like a rock, about to eat floor, when the rope snaps taught, stopping be about 4 or 5 meters off the floor, looking at the rather stunned faces of the Elders, a minor Demon Lord they were giving a tour to?and the single most stunning woman I had ever seen.? Looking over at Juliet, he gave a brief, sad, smile. ?That was how I met Melina.? He fell silent for a moment, the coughed, and went on.

?So here I am, hanging upside down, feeling like a total idiot; when Olha, in her best ?innocent little girl? voice chirps up with ?Dear God, it as big as my arm!??that was when I realized my pants hadn?t survived the decent?I somebody had offered to stake me right then and there, I?d?ve probably said yes. To cap it all off, that little brat had a camera with her and managed to get at least 4 or 5 pictures of me like that, before the rest of the work party stopped laughing enough to get me down.?

?Anyways?? He said eventually. ?Mira, you?re up. Truth or Dare??

 

[Outcast107]

William wonder who was going to go first. That was until Sol asked Viktor his most embarrassing moment in his life. Smiling a bit as he wonder that as well. Just looking at Viktor didn't seem like he would in William opinion. Though as he start to recount the tale, William smiled a bit, enjoying hearing his friend story.

Laughing a bit as he listen to Viktor telling how he felled down, pantless and infront of his bosses, his bosses' friends, and the woman he fell in love with. As well as the whole thing with Olha making it worst then it started. "I'm not sure what I would have done if that happen to me." William thought, he would probably have died right there and then.

 

[figment of mind]

Mirabelle just stayed quiet as the questioning started between Sol and Viktor. She was surprised at how direct and personal the first question of the game was...but soon found that subsiding once she started listening to Vik's story. Of course, she didn't laugh all too much since it she thought it would be insulting, plus it would draw attention to their little group, but she did genuinely find the story to be amusing. She did wonder though, how he was able to so readily tell the story, since it seemed like it was something you kept to yourself...then again, they were doing it to share such information so maybe that was why. It was in the spirit of things...she just had to make sure that she kept that spirit going on her turn.

"Anyways...Mira, you're up. Truth or Dare?"

Suprised by how quickly her turn had come about, she froze for a second before getting over the suddenness and saying, "Um...well, it wouldn't be in the spirit of things to not choose this so...Truth."

 

[Athol]

Viktor thought for a moment, then an idea twigged. ?Ok, I know this isn?t as?amusing?as mine, but it occurs to me that I really know nothing about you. I?ve met a couple of automatons before, but neither of them were as remotely ?human? as you.? He said, watching her. ?So, where are you from? Who built you??

 

[figment of mind]

"Ok, I know this isn't as...amusing...as mine, but it occurs to me that I really know nothing about you. I've met a couple of automatons before, but neither of them were as remotely 'human' as you. So, where are you from? Who built you?"

Mirabelle blinked for a second, surprised at how easy the question was. Then again, just because the question was easy, didn't mean that everyone asked it.

"Um...hm. Well, I'm from the province of Galicia, in the northwest corner of Spain. It's a nice place, lots of seafood and Greenery. Anyways, the man who built me was my father, Rodrigo Delgado. He was nice but was also focused on making sure that I was well educated, especially in the ways on how to build new parts for and just generally maintain myself. He worked as an engineer publicly, and helped create quite a few designs and working models of equipment that's still being used today apparently. Still, he was, for the most part, an alchmist and was thus focused on trying to complete the Great Work. Heck, before he realized that I was sentient and could think, he focused more on that than me and even after he put it on the back burner, i still noticed him working on it in secret, though apparently I came first by then. I understand why he still continued it...it's the Great Work after all, the search for immortality. Most alchemists go for it for fear of death but he...he felt he had a responsibility to do so, mostly due to creating a, for the most part, unaging daughter for whom he didn't want to have to experience the sad truth of outliving all of her own family. Unfortunantly, most alchemists don't get to complete the Great Work, and he didn't either..."

She paused for a moment, trying to figure out how to steer the conversation back to lighter topics, before continuing, "...Anyways, before I sour the mood...Sierra, truth or dare?"

 

[Lunar Templar]

Sierra sat and listened to both story's, Viktor's Story was amusing, but she wondered if it was really the most embarrassing thing that's happened to him given his readiness to talk about it, but at the same time it happened during the 60s so maybe he just didn't care anymore.

She figured it was the latter.

Mira's story she found more interesting, though her own thoughts on it where interrupted when Mira put her on the spot with the dreaded 'Truth or Dare?' question. Part of her wanted to say dare, mostly cause she felt like she could trust Mira to not do anything to crazy to her. But doing stupid stuff wasn't why she agreed to play the game.

"Truth."

 

[figment of mind]

"Truth."

Mirabelle wondered if her question was good enough, comparing it to the questions that came before. Still, it's not like they were judging them or anything so she wasn't too worried about it. Looking back at Sierra, she said, "So...we all know you're good with enchanting...but I want to know, what got you into it? What made you intrested enough to pursue it?"

She thought it was a fair enough question...she just hoped it didn't make her sound like she was insulting her or anything over it. Of course, even if it did, she thought of it as a good question anyways since...well, she had gotten into alchemy due to interest over how she was created, so she wondered if anything similar happened to Sierra. Now she just had to wait...

 

[Lunar Templar]

One the short list of questions she was expecting, that wasn't one of them, though give it was Mirabelle it probably should have been.

"The short answer is. It's apparently 'in my blood'. a week plus laid up with fuck all to do gave me time to poke around in my family history for a 'magical' perspective, and apparently, it's what my blood line on my mothers side was know for back before 'magic' was driven underground." Sierra began. "So I was already predisposed to want to 'enchant things'. As for why I peruse it." she said taking a drink off her beer.

"It was one of the 'outlets' I had when my former demon powers start to wake up in full. My mother, Heather, being totally unaware of magic and all related things had to ask her friend Noire, who is a sorceress, for help, which I imagine was rather awkward. Anyway, Noire is the one who introduced me to Enchanting once she found out I like to build things. Which I'm sure you all could have guessed if you've ever been in my room and seen my selves, whats more though she never let me get bored of it, once I mastered one principle she get me another, then another, then a little challenge then another of those till before I knew it I was starting to conduct my own experiments and research." Sierra continue, stopping only to take a drink off her beer. "Noire is also the one who got me into 'normal sciences' as a means of augmenting me enchanting skills, and I quote "It's easier to break or bend certain natural laws when you actually understand the normal physics behind something."

Sierra finished, then noticed her Beer was also finished, and frowned. "Sorry if 'it was to keep me from getting into trouble' was a bit of a dull answer, but it is why I started doing it." Sierra concluded, and took a look at those who'd yet to be a target and thought about it for a moment while she flagged a waitress down for another one.

"Alright Will, your up. Truth or Dare."

 

[Outcast107]

Will was enjoying the little history from his friends. He always like to learn new things and the two he heard so far were interesting. Though he gulped when it was his turn to pick Truth or Dare. Setting down his drink, which was half empty by now as he tried to think of an answer.

"Um..well.I..um...I..I pick truth..not wait Dare..no wait.yeah Dare!" he said, his mind taking things a bit to far as he was worried. On one hand, he felt like they may get annoyed that someone else picked Truth. On the other hand he didn't want to know what sort of twisted dares Sierra would come up with. Though it was probably better then Juliet ones...he hoped.

"Yeah..I..I'll picked dare." He nodded. Smiling lightly as he was ready for what come.

 

[Lunar Templar]

Sierra gave Will a rather surprised look, she hadn't expected him to go for 'dare', but the die had been cast so now, she had to think of a dare, something a little out side his comfort zone but not so far that he'd openly reject it.

"Your dare, is to give myself or Juliet here, a kiss. On the cheek is fine, but if your feeling bold you could always go for a kiss on the lips." Sierra said after a few moments a thinking, clearly having to rethink her plan a bit.

 

[Outcast107]

Will face went red as he look at the two. Not sure which one to kiss or how? Would he kiss on the cheek? or on the lips? His eyes moving back and forth between the two. What if he kiss Sierra and Juliet gets mad? Or vice versa? Hoping he made a right choice as he walk over and went to Sierra. Closing his eyes as he leans forward to give her a kiss on the cheek. Not really watching what he was doing.

Wondering what Juliet was thinking and hoping she wasn't going to get mad at him. Knowing she kindof been pushing on him for sex, but was it cause she likes him? or because she was a succubus? he didn't know but at the moment he was going to have his first kiss.

 

[Lunar Templar]

Sierra, seeing Will coming in, eye's closed toward her cheek, briefly considered turning her head to surprise Will with a kiss on the lips, but decided against it and let him go in and give her a kiss on the cheek.

After he finished she smiled, gave him a peck on the forehead and then waited to see who Will was going challenge.

 

[Outcast107]

Kissing her cheek lightly as he pulled away. Blushing lightly at her smiled as he saw her moving forward and kissed him on the forehead. Smiling as he sat back down as he look at Juliet and Sol. Wondering which of the two he should asked, decide to go with Sol as he didn't want him to go through whatever Dare Juliet might come up with.

"Sol..Truth or dare?" he asked, as he was glad his part was over.
