Honey, I Love You!

WHO? Nene Yashiro and YOU!
WHAT? Nene decides to start a cute ice breaker game. 
WHEN? Early April, before the charity showcase starts filling up and WAY before either body shows up in the auditorium.

An hour after the last 'normal' student leaves, Nene Yashiro commandeers homeroom 1-B! Some preemptive notice has been given in that she's told people she both does and does not recognize, all from spring break, but there's also a sign taped to the doors inviting passersby inside to meet other transfers. 

If that doesn't interest your character, I'm sure someone else will happily drag them in anyways! Even if they don't want to partake in Nene's icebreaker game, they can still come by and be with the others, of course- and commentate. 

When people enter, they'll find desks pushed to the walls for the most part, but most of the chairs are arranged in a circle. There's a couple plates of sugar cookies and homemade donuts with a seran wrap cover to keep them safe (and a note encouraging people not to take too many), and on the blackboard in chalk it reads a game and a set of rules!

"Honey I Love You

An ice breaking game to make people smile! Whoever's it must stand in the center of the circle and pick a person! To start the round, they tell them "Honey, I love you, will you give me a smile?" and their chosen must respond "Honey, I love you, but I cannot smile" without smiling. If they succeed, the person in the middle has to try whatever they can to get them to smile. Once they do, they change places! 

RULES:

1. No touching anybody! No tickling or lifting or anything. (That's cheap, anyways.)

2. If you can't get someone to smile in 5 minutes, move on to someone else. 

3. Smiling or laughing is an automatic lose! Majority vote on what counts as a smile if it can actually be contested. 

4. don't be weird please

also please don't eat ALL the cookies or donuts they're for everyone

DEPUTIES
noah-kun
clamor-san" 


Nene seems rather pleased herself. Any volunteers on going first?

... Of course, eventually she'll have to set up the Naughty Corner for rule breakers, so in the corner, with a few desks turned around to make walls, is a  cardboard jailcell. Nene worked really, really hard on it, but she'd hidden it away initially out of naive optimism. There's also more in case she needs to separate people in the naughty corner. It has also been vandalized with GAY BABY JAIL, so there's that.


((OOC RULES

- Feel free to start your own rounds, of course! But if you want to wait until someone gets your character to smile to start your own round in a top level, that's also okay. Rounds can be either your character asking someone to smile or rebuffing a smile. 

- Characters who aren't playing the game are allowed to commentate! 

- Be fair about smiles, of course! 

- Again, this is BEFORE either body has been set out!!! Please keep that in mind. 

- Have fun owo ))

[this is the price he pays for lingering around to tease noah, help he doesn't have the context he's just gonna have a mini heartattack]

N-noah? What are you doing? [this is some kind of game? why is it so cute??

also he already lost. amazing. he's doing the speedrun just try and beat his record]

he gives her a little wave back]

[personal profile] silentabyss 2021-04-15 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
It's— it's j-just a game we're playing, that's all! H-honestly, why'd you walk in here without knowing wh-what we were doing?!

[NOW he's mega-embarrassed! Thanks!]
sunstead: (020)

[personal profile] sunstead 2021-04-15 06:22 am (UTC)(link)
[oh noooooooooo he's even cuter now this is amazing]

I just happened to be passing by... but Noah, I had no idea you were into games like these! I'm glad you're not letting that rebellious teen attitude of yours keep you from having fun.

[and before he can be stopped he's gonna ruffle noah's hair

adorable. a good day to have hands.]
silentabyss: (024)

[personal profile] silentabyss 2021-04-15 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
[Noah's brain simply says "aaadhfasdfkljdsfk" in response to that. Thanks, you broke him. The head-pat does make him obnoxiously happy, though.]

W-well! Y-you already lost the game, stupid...! [oh now we're moving to insults?] If you smile, you lose! S-so!
sunstead: (013)

[personal profile] sunstead 2021-04-15 07:02 am (UTC)(link)
Oh? Is that how it works?

[he's definitely way too old for this and would probably just laugh and decline if it were anyone else... but hmm. noah did make the mistake of coming to him, the guy who has spent an entire year without a face. he would be killing it at this game if he were still a sickle.]

... It's not really fair if I don't know the rules yet. Alright, why don't you start again?
silentabyss: (013)

[personal profile] silentabyss 2021-04-15 07:09 am (UTC)(link)
[That's the worst possible outcome! But to avoid having to repeat this a third time, Noah points to the rules behind Clamor because to be frank, he can only take so much of this before embarrassment causes a full 404 error. And then... and then, he tries again, God help him.

Are his arms crossed? Yes, yes they are. Is he pouting? You bet.]


H...honey, I l-love you, w-will you give me a smile?

[kill him]
sunstead: (008)

[personal profile] sunstead 2021-04-15 07:13 am (UTC)(link)
Honey, I love you, but I cannot smile.

[this time....... he is prepared and taking this 200% too seriously

but also, finally, a use for that resting icy stare of his.]

[wow this entire motherfucker]

Wh— wow!

[Unlike others, Noah isn't really good at making jokes, and he'd go for tickling if that were allowed but it's NOT and that's just not fair! Okay, okay, he has a joke somewhere. A lame joke. Harque probably told him a joke once, let's see, uh.]

W-well, um... when I was a kid, my brother told me I could be anything I wanted to be. As it turns out... identity theft is a crime.
sunstead: (010)

[personal profile] sunstead 2021-04-15 09:10 am (UTC)(link)
[i

is that a joke about his dead brother's doppelganger

appearances aside clamor's will is actually weak but SHOULD he laugh at this..... it would be even worse to point that out so he's just gotta. keep it together here. he has to stay strong this is some next level mindgames shit right here

but he also doesn't want to make noah get anxious by just stonewalling him, so...]


There's nothing funny about committing crimes. That would make you a crook... so you better straighten yourself out.

[It's fine, we don't need to analyze the fact that that joke definitely 100% came from that body-snatching whore Dantalion and not, in fact, Harque Ebalon, but it's fine. Don't worry about it. Noah doesn't need to be aware of this fact, his memories are borked, it's fine!!!]

I've never committed a crime! [Debatable.] And if I have, it's for a good cause!

[Should he up the ante? Hm... A moment of thought...]

Will you smile if I promise to do math homework?
sunstead: (048)

[personal profile] sunstead 2021-04-16 09:25 am (UTC)(link)
Is bribery allowed in this game? [... it's not not against the rules

HMM]


If you promise, sure—but I'll be holding you to it, kid!

[there will be no escape from Ain & Clamor's Funtime Math Hour™]
silentabyss: (025)

[personal profile] silentabyss 2021-04-16 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[He's going to regret this. Hold on. Wait. What has he done.]

I hate you so much. [No, he doesn't, but he has to be A Teenager about things.] Fine! Yes, okay, I'll do the math homework from here on out, but you'd better help me with it!

[Why did he make the executive decision to go against Clamor of all people?! What was he THINKING?

And then there's a pause and Noah adds,]


...I don't actually hate you. Just so we're clear.

Hmm, sorry, I think I misheard something! Who's the most wise, compassionate, and stylish scholar you know—not to mention the strongest ego weapon made by only the finest of Seven Tower's magitech department—who is not only the perfect companion, but without whom you would be completely lost both in life and in math...?

Go on, you can say it.

I'll wait.
silentabyss: (013)

wheezes

[personal profile] silentabyss 2021-04-17 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[Wow!]

...

...ugh.

...

Fine! It's you. You're the most... [he tries to say it word-for-word, but he forgets like, half of that,] ...uh, wise, compassionate, stylish scythe-ghost I've ever met, and the best math teacher I could've asked for!

[With the combined strength of Clamor and Ain, Noah Ebalon WILL learn basic algebra. That said, Noah mulls over that for a little bit and decides to up the ante, because he feels a little bad, maybe. Just a little bit.]

You're the best companion I could've asked for, even if you're mostly a scythe, so... Sorry. Don't give me that look, I don't hate you.
sunstead: (013)

[personal profile] sunstead 2021-04-19 10:13 am (UTC)(link)
... I know you don't hate me, so you don't have to get all teary-eyed on me now. Why don't you give me a smile, hmm?

[he is smiling tho, so this is Clamor surrendering to the sacred promise of math homework. congrats on your victory(?)]
silentabyss: (087)

[personal profile] silentabyss 2021-04-19 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't get teary-eyed, and my face doesn't work that way.

[Despite his protesting, Noah manages a half-smile, and he's really, really trying to pretend he's not smiling. In fact, he should be sad, because now he's permanently screwed himself into doing homework. He takes a seat finally, at least.]
