Truth or Dare: Nexus Edition

[the_rebel_son]

Lucifer isn't quite sure how this madness started. The angels had opened up the council chamber for visitors and of course Beelzebub had started them drinking, then they got rowdy and people started joining them. Who had brought up the idea of Truth or Dare was unknown but it rippled through the amassing group to a uniform good idea, despite the objective nature of it being a disaster.

Then there was some vote that Lucifer missed where Galahad, Prometheus, and Belial were made judges to keep things in line. That might have been the most reasonable and sane thing since this conversation started. Chairs were rearranged to a big circle.. and all the chairs from the villa had been taken. It was crowded, specially when they decided the judges should have chaises to lounge on. This was some true ancient Greek style madness with the drinking and the topics that were sure to come up. Still, it was all fun and games, right?


Rules of the Road:
1. Top level with your character.
2. Note if you are opting this in as canon for Nexus. This may be done in top level or in individual responses (If there is any questions about this please seek out players OOC.. Discord, PM in Dw etc)
3. A character may only ask truth or dare of the same character once.
4. However, a character may ask as many different characters as they please.
5. Characters may ask questions without doing a top level. However the 1 per the same character applies
6. If your character is crossing threads for a dare, please link back to the original comment where the dare was issued.
7. When in doubt ask?

"You speak wisely, lass. Fighting is hard, 'specially for things you believe in."

skekSa sails alone - in part for her image and to preserve her independence, but also so her Sifa won't be involved in her battles. She has few friends, especially not among the Skeksis, but the more time she spends here the more the idea of friends appeals to her.

She wants to get to know the Nexus and its people better.

"A dare, then! Well, let me think." The Mariner considers what to ask. "Aha! Show us your wings, Deet."

Deet nods slightly, worrying her lip at little at the thought of the last fight she saw, the anger and fear that gripped her, the power of the Darkening. Her fingers stray to the edge of the cloak she's wearing and run through the soft feathers, and that makes her feel better at once.

A slow smile grows on her face once again at the dare, and she giggles quietly, once. "That almost sounds like flirting, Captain," she teases, but nods agreeably.

The cloak has to be adjusted slightly, but then she flares her wings and flutters, hopping into the air and hovering for a few seconds before landing again. She leaves her wings spread then, content to show them off despite her laughter. "I got bit by a nurloc on this one," she points. "Not that long ago, but it's almost all healed up. I don't think there's going to be a scar at all in the long run."

"Between the two of us," says the Captain, voice low, "I think you have an admirer already. I don't flirt with a lass who's taken."

skekSa has noticed the black feathers, as dark as her own mane. She wonders what the source of those feathers is, but that'll be a question for later. Perhaps it's a gift, since she can't think of a Thra creature that could give material for a cloak like that.

The Mariner's own body has some scars from old adventures and old battles, so she nods in respect. Some are faded marks on her snout, others are hidden under feathers. Clearly Deet has seen some adventures of her own.
