THE NEVER HAVE I EVER MEME!

[firstofthefallen]

You probably know how this goes

Everyone's at a table that somehow can fit everyone in the game with (non-alcoholic for the kiddies) drinks

BUT

this time, there's a bit of a twist!

Never have I ever...

The classic- your character admits to something they haven't done, and other characters drink/put down a finger/high five them if they have done the thing your character hasn't. See how awful your friends truly are or realize you both haven't done anything fun NERDS

Don't judge me, but I've...

Instead of saying what they haven't done, your character blurts out a confession of something they have done. Other characters drink if they have done said thing and can too share in the shame. Commiserate together by seeing what awful people you are/see how awful you are in comparison to your friends!

Ask me anything!

FOR... however long your thread goes, your character is now compelled to tell the truth when asked a question, no exceptions. Whether or not this compulsive truth telling applies to the asker is up to you!


There's no drinking rule on this one because they'll probably be trying to drink the pain away anyway.

Pick whichever ones you like!

Never have ah ever given up!

[punchingbagman]

And ah better not see any'a y'all drinkin' to this, ya hear?

Re: Never have ah ever given up!

[ceasetoexist]

[Drinks.

Sometimes it's better to just give up.]

[punchingbagman]

Now why'd ya go an' do that?

[ceasetoexist]

Cause some things just don't happen.

[punchingbagman]

You sayin' you had yer heart set on somethin' and then went and decided it was impossible?

[ceasetoexist]

Didn't so much decide as find out it was so yeah, that is what I'm saying.

[punchingbagman]

Ah hope ya at least gave it one last shot instead'a jus' rollin' over and lettin' it go.

[ceasetoexist]

Pretty sure it doesn't make a difference since in this instance? Dead is pretty much dead.

[punchingbagman]

Huh...

*Head scratch.*

Ah guess even somethin' like the Everlight might have trouble with that.

[kuukai]

Bull. We've all done it.

[punchingbagman]

Nope. Ain't nothin' ah've ever given up on. Always kept goin' 'till ah won or lost.

[kuukai]

Ya must beat yer head against a lotta brick walls.

[punchingbagman]

Didn't say everythin' was easy, or that ah've succeeded at everythin' ah've tried. But ah'd rather try somethin' and keep fallin' down than give up an' miss out on somethin' good.

Hay, if ah was the type t'give up 'cause it didn't look good, ah never would'a got mah best friend.

[kuukai]

Sometimes movin' forward isn' the best option. Ya ever think abou' that? Basic self-preservation.

[punchingbagman]

So ya go at it a different way. Ah know even an awesome guy like mahself can't always jus' go chargin' in and get his way.

*After nearly getting himself killed trying to do just that once.*

But that don't mean ya give up. It jus' means ya try somethin' else 'til ya figure out how ta get what yer after.

[kuukai]

Hmm.

Tha's a diff'rnt kinda givin' up. Not sure'f I agree, but...

[ Well, anyway, she takes a sip. ]

[punchingbagman]

Only givin' up if ya admit ya can't do it at all. Ah know ah ain't the smartest, but even ah know that there's more'n one way t'get somethin' done.

[kuukai]

[ She shrugs. ]

I've changed my mind midstream on things. S'normal.

[punchingbagman]

Guess that does happen sometimes. Ah jus' ain't the sort to commit to nothin' ah don't wanna do. Gotta be able to put mah heart into it, or it ain't really worth doin', ya get it?

[kuukai]

Nah.

Somethin' can be worth doin' one minute an' not th'next. World ain' that simple.

[punchingbagman]

Only time that happens is when somethin' goes and changes the game. Ah ain't never had somethin' ah had mah heart set on that ah decided wasn't worth it no more unless somethin' got rid'a what ah was after.

[kuukai]

What if someone told ya th'truth abou' whatever ya were huntin', hmm, an' ya didn' like it?

Wha' if ya realized what ya were doin' was all a lie?

[punchingbagman]

The truth ain't always easy. Me an' mah friends, we know that better'n anybody ah could name. But if what yer doin' ends up a lie, you go an' make yer own truth! Sometimes ya jus' gotta beat yer own path to what ya want.

And if yer after somethin' and ya find out it ain't what ya thought...well, ain't it still worth seein' it through to the end?

[kuukai]

No. Sometimes it isn'.

Not like we have a choice ev'ry time. But ...

Look, never mind, ya wouldn' understand.

[punchingbagman]

Ah'd rather have the closure, mahself. Even if things don't end up the way ya hoped, ah ain't the sort to jus' leave things hangin'.
