Time For Some Drunk History/Canon Storytime

Everyone's got something they can just go on and on and on about, even when they're a little bit drunk. Or a lot bit drunk. In fact, honestly? Maybe they've even got a better handle on it when they're drunk. So honestly-- honestly?

Just. Sit there. And let them tell you about it.

how do.
- Post a top-level with character info, including what thing they can nerd on about. Is it a particular time in history? Is it how magic/science/an ice cream machine works and the astounding ways it came to be like that? Is it their take on that one thing that happened in canon?
- Tag other folks with questions about their topic or a general gentle prompt to get them rambling.
- Roll to see how drunk you're getting (or not; we're not the cops) and tell the people the thing you know while you're super coherent.

how drunk.
1] Still sober - Work on that.
2] A little tipsy - You might be getting a little ramble-y about the thing.
3] A few hard drinks in - Okay, so, sentences are hard and you don't know how to pronounce the one thing but you are damn sure this is how it went down.
4] Plastered - Listen, you'll answer that question in a second, but has the other person seen what the table looks like if you put your head down on it.

Comments

theo bell | where mischief lies

[backronym]

[ask him about (1) Viking mythos, (2) the dogs of the United Kingdom, (3) steampunk tech, or (4) whether Loki is a lying liar who lies lyingly; happy to modern au him up]

Dogs, it's always dogs

[fantabulousandwich]

I got to ask you something.

[They're somewhere between three and five drinks in- or Harley is, at least, her latest tiny paper umbrella tucked behind one ear- and she's feeling pleasantly giggly.]

How the hell did King Charles get a freakin' dog named after him? And which Charles was it? The fun one with all the mistresses, or the one that pissed off Parliament?

[deathbymistletoe]

Do you have much experience of Loki? [Baldr is curious because the Loki he remembered didn't particularly care about Midgard or humans in general.]

Horatio Hornblower | Hornblower

[whisted]

[Nelson, Napoleon, or bust]

Ophelia ] Hamlet

[importuned]

[Danish literature, floriography, and the exhausting reality of dating princes]

Kaminari Denki || My Hero Academia

[charge_bolt]

[Ask him about Pokemon, electricity, or any of the craziness to happen to his class in canon, and he'll be happy to talk your ear off!]

Raihan | Pokemon SwSh

[draigon]

[Alright fam, we've got Darkest Day number one, Darkest Day number TWO, the history of Hammerlocke and Galar as a whole, the role of a Gym Leader, weather as a strategy, and dragon and/or regional Pokemon. Have at!]

Jiang Cheng | Mo Dao Zu Shi

[gottabeshidinme]

[Let him tell you about (or please argue with him against) dogs being the superior pet, his clan being the best, every other clan being mediocre at best... and, depending on his mood, Wei Wuxian being a total asshole or maybe-almost-okay. (... Actually, on the latter point, he'll likely argue against whatever your opinion is, because clearly he knows Wuxian best.) Or bring your own topic of contention, he'll bite. Possibly literally.]

2;

[diosaguerrera]

[ fight her opinion! because it's cute how moody a-cheng can get at anything emotional. ]

Your sworn brother loves you in his own way, don't you think?

Dilandau Albatou | Escaflowne

[diabolical_adonis]

[ Let a drunk 15-year-old try to convince you he knows shit-all about war and strategy. ]

Re: Dilandau Albatou | Escaflowne

[raynos]

[tell another 15-year-old mecha pilot-slash-strategist alllll about it, my dude. let's say they're a couple drinks in and getting kind of stupid.]

William James Moriarty | Moriarty The Patriot

[lordofcrime]

[it's math just math I'm so sorry]

Jamie Hemeros | Zoids New Century /0

[raynos]

[want to hear about
- the inner workings of huge biomechanical animals?
- that time his teammate used a giant robot lion to fight a giant robot dinosaur during his planet's equivalent of the Super Bowl?
- why his teammates are jerks and he loves them?
then buddy you are in luck.

if you're uncomfortable with a kid getting drunk then just assume he's on NyQuil or something, i guess. or having a weird reaction to Mtn Dew Code Red. we can make this work.]

Date Masamune | Sengoku Basara

[vengaboy]

[ I mean, he kind of IS the drunken history.

Ask him about himself or any aspect of the late Sengoku Era, whether specific to Basara or real life! Don't expect actual historical accuracy in the case of the latter, though. ]

here's the furry you ordered

[thereisoneimpostor]

[ If Zoroark wants to get really good at playing human, he's going to need to know a little about human history. He was going to lurk nearby and listen in, but then he smelled alcohol and promptly realized that everybody here is drunk.

Drunk humans are the funniest humans to trick! He can't just be a passive onlooker now!

Harnessing his power of illusions, Zoroark takes on his well-practiced human guise. If everybody's inebriated, this is going to be like playing on easy mode! The challenge is usually part of the fun, but if everyone else is being indulgent today, why shouldn't Zoroark? ]

Tell me about your very interesting samurai history! I know plenty of things about samurai history, [ this is a lie ] but if you're a real samurai, you'll know the history best of all! Are you actually good at battles? Is it hard to fight with swords? They look clunky.

[ They're much less elegant than his claws! ]

Sherlock Holmes || Sherlock BBC

[desecrated]

[ask him about crime or poisons, famous serial killers, interesting post-mortem discoveries, or the way bees socialize.]

[backronym]

...how do bees socialize?

aodhan fincher | original character

[crosstuned]

[ ask him about music theory/history, or (his favourite) how various instruments work. ]

[riff_razor]

[OOC: I have to throw my musical theorist at yours.]

What do you think about the conversion of classical instruments to lighter, electric equivalents?

elia martell | asoiaf | ota

[veryfond]

[ ask her about queen nymeria's conquest of dorne, or if she's REALLY plastered the time her husband left her and started a terrible war! ]

Hirako Shinji | Bleach | OTA

[jazzz]

[music nerd here! if prompted, he can and will also go off about revenge and the proper use of the sword. and maybe about that time he consecutively downed eight cups of coffee.]

[yuureiressha]

... excuse me, did I hear that correctly? Eight cups?

Aarne "the Eagle" Järvinen |The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust | OTA

[suomi_thunder]

[He lives in the 3-4 range. XD Will talk forever about making drums, drum kits, drumming, cooking, reindeer, sex/sexuality, being genderqueer, cosmetology, living above the arctic circle, animism/shamanism, stardom/fame.]

Beelzebub | Paradise Lost | OTA

[hesperussword]

[Literally the angel of drunkenness. Will talk about everything; animal husbandry, weapons of war, brewing and armor are his favorites. If you want to really get him going ask about Hannibal or war elephants.]

[knightgallant]

[Bee drinking his fill and getting sloshed is a regular enough thing around the farmhouse that Galahad doesn't bat an eye when he comes across the other man in the sitting room. Turning, Galahad makes his way over to where the angel is enjoying himself, both hands wrapped around an oddly-shaped parcel tied with string. He came across the most perfect treasure to bring home to the angel today, and couldn't resist picking one up for them.]

I found something for you in the market today. [He settles down into the couch next to the angel, being mindful not to lean back and trap the wing behind him.] Here.

[Will there be an excited yell when Bee sees the bowl on its elephant stand? Part of him's definitely hoping for an excited yell.]

Vars Hagen | The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust | OTA

[midnight_devil]

[Will talk about Norse mythology (especially Fenrir), The European punk scene, piloting planes, customizing motorcycles, music writing, bass guitar, punk fashion. Mun note: Vars' native language is Norwegian and his grasp of English isn't perfect. The drunker he is the funnier this could get if they are speaking English.]

Thomas (Tommy) Jerome Newton | The Man Who Fell to Earth | OTA

[iamjustvisiting]

[Humans, what it is like living with humans, human history, Aliens, what it's like being an alien among humans, music, gin. If he's really drunk he might talk about his family or being in love.]

Holden Ford | Mindhunter | OTA

[mindhunting]

[[ Serial killers and why they do the things they do is a topic he more or less founded the research on so he's ALL ABOUT IT. Also how funny he found Charles Manson, some random animal facts, deets on lust killings, rambles about how much he loves his parents, or that one time he had a full on mental breakdown because he hugged Ed Kemper after having a Really Bad Week. ]]

[itswhoyouare]

Most disturbing serial killer you've ever caught?

Nester Abernathy/The Loch Ness Monster | cryptid OC | OTA

[loched]

[How Jurassic Park got it Right, 50 ways the Ice Ages sucked, Midieval fishing and you, and the evolution of the kilt.]

[jazzz]

Shinji’s old, a little over seven hundred, but this guy is old. And Shinji’s learned that the old ones always have the most oddly specific fixations. Like those funny plaid cloth thingamajiggers those weirdos wear in the west.

“Kilts? Aren’t those like skirts or something?”

Mick Ronno | Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars | ota

[guitar_voodoo]

[Mick will talk about Ziggy, specifically how much he adores his alien and the alien pussy he possesses. Band stuff, how useless he is with tech. The story of how Ziggy knocked out a thug by throwing a shoe at them. More girlfriend stuff. His cat, Gibson. Guitars. Lots of guitar talk.]

Joe "Burn Them All" OC | Ziggy Stardust universe | ota

[helland_damnation]

[Joe will talk about his favourite Fin, Aarne. Sex, lots of sex. Lewdness. How much he loves his lover's body. Band craziness. Doing drugs. Getting smashed. Doing dangerous stunts and getting into trouble.]

They need to get trashed together - The world may not be ready!

[midnight_devil]

The hell if he knew how this started but now he and Joe were sitting there doing shots. Vars used to get trashed like this every night but that had calmed down, or so he thought. The two bassists were shooting Jack and Akvavit one after another. This was going to be shit in the morning when they were wrecked from mixing these two drinks together. Who the hell cared at this point?

"Surprise Fin hasn't found yet." Vars commented, wondering what both the Fin and Viktor were up to since they weren't here. Probably giving someone a hell of a time somewhere.
