The Sleepover meme

You all know how it goes. Maybe its a group of teenage friends at someone's house, maybe its adult strangers snowed in at the airport, maybe its a camping trip of kids but for some reason, you're all going to end up spending the night together. Sleep is for the weak and distractions are needed. Will lifelong friendships be forged and broken or will everyone just end up covered in silly string and hungover? Your choice will decide your fate. Better grab your overnight duffle, your favorite pillow, some people to hang out with and choose wisely.

options:

1. Games. Truth or Dare, Spin the Bottle, Settlers of Catan or a vicious game of Uno. Ice breakers, social stand-ins, conversation starters: these are the games we play that bind us together against a common enemy or tear us apart. Is it fair play or can there be only one? Find out who your friends are and keep them close. Nations have gone to war for less than this.

2. Pranks. Get enough people together in a group, add alcohol, or just insane levels of tiredness, and it's bound to happen. Maybe you were dared to or maybe you just got stuck with the phone when it was already ringing but its time to break out the TP and find a house with trees in front or figure out if your neighbor's refrigerator is running. Can things go wrong? Oh yes. Oh yes, very. Hope you wore your running sneakers when Old Man Griminch catches you with those eggs.

3. Scary times. Because really, what's a sleep-over without some fear? Whether its a horror movie in a room with no lights, Bloody Mary dares at midnight or campfire stories about true events that happened on a night just like tonight, a night together with friends doesn't end right if no one's screaming or in tears. Grab those batman snuggies, its time to get creepy.

4. Food! No party is a party without food. Maybe its making chocolate chip cookies at midnight, maybe its a food run, maybe its marshmallows over that aforementioned campfire. Whatever it is, its time to break out the grub and play fluffy bunnies until someone pukes.

5. Make-over! Break out the glitter nail polish and hot irons. This old sleep-over staple is sure to create bonding moments and only mild scarring. Learn to braid hair, learn to apply eyeliner, learn which of your friends has the fashion sense of a 1930s clown. Did someone fall asleep before the rest of the group? Well, that's what sharpie pens, shaving cream and firehouse red lipstick was invented for. The 80s are calling and they're not taking no for an answer.

6. Snuggle pile! That's right. After a hard night of pixy stix and jello twister it was only a matter of time before everyone ended up crashing. Hard. Whether you wind up in a puppy pile or just using a stranger's shoulder for a pillow, at some point one of you is going to wake up enough to steal a blanket.

7. Soul searching. It's five in the morning and everyone else has gone to sleep. Now's the time for deep thoughts, deep conversations and utterly life altering questions. Like 'do seagulls ever get sad?' and 'why are they called 'styrofoam peanuts' if you can't eat them?'. Someone's got the answers. You might have to wake them up to get them but its now or never. Universal truths aren't going to wait for reasonable hours.

8. Grab bag! you do what you want!

you know the routine. Put your character, series and any prefs in the header. Tag around. Have fun. And don't fall asleep first whatever you do.

Honestly, how did he get into these situations with Caboose? Oh, that's right, Caboose was adorable and he could never say no to him. Well, that wasn't true. He could, because some things Caboose wanted to do really weren't advisable, but things like this? This he could never say no to. He watches a drop slide towards Caboose's thumb, biting his own lip as he debated and finally gave in.

"Oh, come here," he sighed, leaning forward and opening his lips, feeling the strain through is neck and along his shoulders. His arms tightened around Caboose's muscular mass, tugging him in as close as he could.

For his part Caboose tries to hold as still as possible so he doesn't accidentally poke Kirk somewhere painful with the spoon. The tip of his tongue pokes out the side of his mouth as he careful maneuvers the ice cream into Kirk's mouth despite the odd drip or two now running down his thumb. Ah well, it doesn't hurt to get a little messy.

"Got it!"

Damn it, Caboose was adorable when he was trying really hard. He seemed to imitate their cats, with his tongue sticking out ever so slightly, and his gorgeous eyes laser focused. How it was possible for such a large and muscular man to look adorable Kirk had never understood or figured out, but he'd stopped questioning it a long time ago. It was one of those little things that made Caboose especially unique.

He licked his lips as he swallowed, fingers moving beneath Caboose's shirt to caress the hard muscle of his stomach. "You did, and it was delicious," he approved. "That deserves a reward, I think."
