Nighttime Drinks

”Miss Saige. Tell us the rules.”

Astra moves over, allowing somebody else to sit with her on the bench.

“Okay okay, so. There are ten glasses here. Seven are filled with water, one with hallucinoid poison, one with paralyze poison, and one with charm poison. So ten total.”

Saige sets up the glasses in a row.

“Someone not playing will have to move them around without us looking so we won’t know which is which. For the actual game, someone will ask you, ‘Truth or Dare?’ And you will have to pick one. They will have to get you to answer a question truthfully or do a dare. The goal is to get the person to refuse so that they have to take a shot and risk being poisoned. And it will go in a circle. I will go first, so Astra can ask me truth or dare, and then after I will ask Miquella, and then we just go in a circle. Fun, right?!”

"Ah Fuck!"
Selena jumps when Saige rushes over all excitedly, then takes a deep breath and shakes her head.
"Ok. That's enough excitement for me." Selena stands and gather's her bottle, recorking it, and her rose and turns to Miquella and Blodwulf.
"I'll send for you guys later. I'm gonna head home for a bit." She looks back and forth at the shots on the table, and back to Miquella.
"Have fun and good luck. But I'm not playing that. I'd just ruin everyone's fun."
She gives a semi nervous smile towards Saige. "No offense but truth or dare games are not something I participate in.... And those probably wouldn't work on me anyway, and if they did, you'd have a bigger problem on your hands."

“You don’t have to play if you don’t want to! Would you move the glasses around though?” Saige asks Selena.

“I highly doubt you’d ruin anything Commander! You can learn more about us like this, so you’re free to come and sit.”

Astra nods the seat to the right of her. She puts up all her bottles and keeps out one that is a poison remedy tonic.

”Anyways, Master Mendacium?”

She gestures to the seat on her left.

Miquella sits next to Saige and waits patiently
