Party Rock Anthem only it's played on kazoos

[sacrificialpawn]

[Oscar is a practiced master at Coping (tm) in the face of things he would prefer not to address in any sort of healthy or rational manner. After the events of yesterday, he's somehow getting the feeling that he isn't the only one, which means that in his mind there is only one thing to do: this translates to yet another Walmart booze heist (even larger than the original), a few side trips to amass snacks because RIP his kitchen, and some haphazardly erected decorations in one of the spare rooms to try to at least give off something of a celebratory atmosphere... but let's be real here, this is just Misery x CPR x Reese's Puffs + alcohol.

Sunday morning will find handwritten notes tucked under everyone's doors inviting them to a party that evening, snacks and drinks (that particular word underlined a couple of times, just in case people didn't pick up on the meaning of "party") provided gratis.

There's alcohol, there's soda for the minors, there's plenty of junk food to eat, and there are a whole bunch of other people who are also Going Through It. What better recipe for a party could you ask for?

... don't answer that.]

[Raven is also drinking because it wouldn’t be a party game without him being at least a little tipsy.

It helps him be honest…which will not be good for him but it will be funny for us lmao.]

[guffawsungraciously]

...

[takes a drink...]

Perhaps.

[reallyfishy]

Oh? You’re into the rugged look, Jasper?

[He should not sound as intrigued as he does. He’s straight.

Totally straight.]

[guffawsungraciously]

...

You could say that, I suppose.

[it's honesty hours...]

[holeful]

[Plus he's a functional alcoholic, don't forget.]

Hm... 84 points especially for those with matured tastes.

[reallyfishy]

[I was trying to be nice.

Also, Fukuda,]

Y’ain’t wrong, but…ain’t this supposed ya be about yer own tastes?

[holeful]

Oh, 84 is my rating but I feel like you'd get bonus points for those who like guys with a particular sort of maturity, like a strange but reliable uncle.

I think you're handsome but more because you have nice features and eyes with a sort of misery hidden in them.

[DON'T SAY IT LIKE THAT?]

[reallyfishy]

…

You’re a little too observant sometimes, Fukuda.

[The guy probably isn’t a brilliant detective for nothing.]

[divinevoid]

You have your own unique charm, and you are easy on the eyes as well.

[ Plus, Raven seems like the type of guy who'd be fun to tease. ]

[reallyfishy]

[No stop VA don’t feed his ego—]

Glad ta hear ya have eyes.

[divinevoid]

[ It's a bit too late for that! ]

It's only natural~

[scythegun]

[...................

he is not drunk enough for this one. maybe later. but probably never because that sounds better!!!]

[reallyfishy]

…Why’re ya lookin’ at me like that?

[scythegun]

Like what?

[do NOT call him on this???]

[reallyfishy]

[Did he not expect Raven to notice???]

Like you’re embarrassed ta even look my way. I ain’t that ugly.

[...

WHY ARE BOTH OF YOU BOYS SO DIFFICULT EVEN WITH THE ALCOHOL HELPING, Dorothy has to pause for a moment, but--]

...I imagine it really will be no surprise to you, but you are quite attractive, dear. In any sort of look you can pull off, I think.

[raven...cute...!!]

[reallyfishy]

[DON’T. DON’T WORRY ABOUT IT.

Also he blushes at Dorothy’s words. It’s different to be complimented by someone he likes.]

R-Really? I mean, yeah, of course it’s no surprise!

I dunno ‘bout any look, though…

[ungratefuloz]

[...Help, the blushing is making it worse, she's absolutely endeared further--]

Oh, come now! Seeing you at that ball was certainly nice, but I think you're definitely charming in your own right by default, you know!

But really, you are quite cute. Especially in such a flushed state.

[reallyfishy]

[Nooooooooo—

Raven would say something about how Dorothy has seen Schwann, but she keeps calling him cute and his brain short circuits.]

It’s…the booze. Yeah, it’s the booze.

[weepingclown]

You remind me too much of Murro to really say...

[Considering Raven, hand on his chin.]

[reallyfishy]

That a good thing or a bad thing…?

[akademise]

Based merely on appearance, it'd be a 7, but knowing you as a person is elevating it to an 8.

[ Raven isn't super His Type, but he's very cute. ]

[reallyfishy]

[Now it's Raven's turn to be surprised by the compliments he's receiving.]

Never expected ta get personality points tonight, but hey, I'll take it. Ol' Raven's still got some charm left in 'im.

[akademise]

[ Hearing Raven call himself old is... kind of amusing now that he has his whole memories back. ]

He certainly does. Though maybe those words mean little from one who is even older?

[crosswired]

[anyway now that he has more than a couple glasses of whiskey in him, he's coming back around and just giving Raven a nod at this. RIP he doesn't get the tall bonus.]

You've been very compassionate. I think it's a very shining trait.
