Before the first night was called, Lila had taken a moment to get herself a beer and get started on the process of getting at least buzzed, because she was pretty sure she'd be a lot more fun with some alcohol in her than without. She was a little amused by her assignment, but the threat of starseed hot potato - and of ruining such a wonderfully fun mystery game - kept her tight-lipped and with the card quickly tucked into one fo the compartments in her purse (so that it would be quicker retrieved because god knew her purse was a horrorshow of junk).
She ducked down as instructed, and waited to see who the wolves would choose on their first hunt of the night.

Laine had situated herself with some beer and was currently parked next to Lila on a pillow. The thread of starseed hot potato caused her to twitch, and absently rub the flat of her chest with a grimace. Uh no, Laine would make sure that didn't happen. To herself anyway. She'd sooner do those laps in the rift. Taking her card, she slipped it up the sleeve of her dress.
Now it was time to play the waiting game.

Jade pondered Laine's offer of seat for her, not really saying or doing anything as a response to that yet. It was kind offer, a sign of acceptance. While she wasn't exactly the most social butterfly and preferred her own privacy, she also felt it would be rude of her to turn down said offer. So, when Ever started the game, she took a seat next to Laine (not too close though) and listened introductions with keen interest.
She graciously took her card when offered, glanced at it and put the card face-down in front of her. It was really hard to see any other reaction to the information in the card, other than slight lift of an eyebrow. So, that kind of role. She was silent though, not finding the idea of a starseed hot potato very pleasant. She would nicely follow instructions and play nice, that she would do.

Ariel had to restrain herself from making a face as she shuffled over to the pillows to take her own seat. It made her feel like a child to sit on the floor like this, though if this were some other kind of event, maybe she wouldn't have minded so much. This whole thing just smacked as juvenile...
Balancing her plate of food on one hand, the tall woman crossed her ankles and sat down cross-legged before she balanced her beer on the floor. Her food joined it as she was handed the card and she read it over. She did make a face this time, but she said nothing as she tucked into her bra strap where it showed over the slouching neckline of her sweater. Maybe she'd get lucky and they'd lynch her first.
Picking up her food, she nibbled at bits of it as she closed her eyes and bowed her head for the 'night phase', unable to help keeping her ears open for the sounds around her and unwilling to completely bend over into a fetal position for this.

Mayumi behaved as more of an awkward wallflower than she had intended, watching the others file in. Usually she was not particularly shy, but there were just so many strangers. Having had a rundown of the rules to this game courtesy of the internet prior to her arrival, though, people-watching did not seem like the worst option. Sure, she hardly considered herself particularly cunning, but hey, maybe if she could fake it.
She received her card from Ever, biting her lip coyly as she peeked at it carefully to learn her role. Then, en route to her seat, she took a can of Sprite and cracked it open with a short hiss before sitting down, taking a sip of soda, and lowering her head as instructed.

Leora had grinned at Ever's proclamation of being in charge. She knew in theory that there were people above him in rank, but she hadn't ever met any of them ( At least not that she was aware of ) So in her mind, Ever was pretty much always in charge of her. He had recruited her, so she for the most part thought of him as her general anyway.
She wondered off over to the refreshment table, eyeballing the contents and plucking up a bottle of water. She was looking over the gathering curiously, taking note of people whom she had never met before, not exactly actively talking to anyone.
When ever started to hand out cards, taking hers gingerly and glancing at it, before sliding it into the laced sleeve of her glove. She walked over to a cushion on the floor, she sank down to sit beside a boy with the most curious of mustaches, her carefully layered dress suddenly turning into a puffy puddle of lace and ruffles that threatened to spill over onto Scott's cushion.
Setting her water bottle down on the ground, ankles crossed daintily at her side, she leaned forward and closed her eyes as instructed, looking very much like a collapsed marionette.ChibiGingi Because Leroa's dress is invading scott's bubble. emotion_awesome

"Heads up everyone!"
Ever sounded cheerful, his crown knocked even more askew by the night's activities, settled back into his throne with his legs stretched out and his eyes flicking around the gathered crew.
"As is tradition, I gave the wolves the option to kill no one this first night -- and they took it. The majority of them, at least, voted not to kill any of you." He raised his eyebrows, spread his hands: they had, in his opinion, been given a gift.
"Of course, this always makes the first day harder, so let's make it a bit easier. How about each of you introduces yourself -- your name, maybe what it is you do, something about yourself -- and explain why it's not in your character to be a wolf."
A beat, thoughtful.
"Then you can vote about who you'd like to lynch today. Because someone must die. You have to take them out before they get to you...."
___________________________________
OOC:
It's lynching time!
Some number of wolves decided not to kill anyone off in the first round, which means you got a pass -- this time. In the future, this isn't an option. From now on, people will die.
For the next 48 hours, you should introduce yourselves and discuss in character who you think might be a wolf, who should be lynched, etc. If you want to say you think you felt someone move in the night -- go for it. If you want to go based on your knowledge of people in character -- go for that. If you want to lynch your BFF because it's hilarious -- also solid grounding.
I only have one request: Keep your posts brief. If possible, stick to 3-4 sentences max. Make it easy for people to read and keep the play going! You can post a bunch of times or you can post once, and that's up to you.
By 48 hours from this post, however, you should post in red bold font who your character is voting to be lynched. I'll post a reminder at the halfway mark!
As always, if anyone's confused, just shoot me a PM/IM. I'm around a lot. XP

Zac for his part lifted his head and –immediately- gave a narrow eyed –stare- at Ever. He looked like he wanted to say something, like he wanted to –scold- but was biting back that option other than to point at Ever before dropping his hand again and taking a breath.
“Zac, not a wolf… I wasn’t a wolf last game and I think it’s pretty obvious I’m acting the same way, take that as you will.”
“I’m holding back till I hear some more introductions.”

Laine groaned quietly and sulked at the idea of going around and introducing themselves. "Now that I feel like I'm in grade school again..." She mumbled as she rolled her eyes. "Laine, and like Zac," Real name this time, not the other one. "I am not a werewolf, nor was I one last time as some of you know. And I think I'ma hold off too.."

Lila blinked slowly. "Delilah. Uh, usually just Lila, really." She flashed her most charming smile. "I wasn't here last time, but I am definitely not a werewolf. Do I look like the type of person to be savaging innocent townsfolk in the night? Please." She laughed. "I'll hold off on voting, too - I'd like to know everybody's name."
She took another sip of her beer, siting back a little.

Makayla lifts her head as she glance around at everyone, leaning back to relax in her chair. A small smile forms across her lips as she gives a shrugs "I'm Makayla, and I was a wolf in the last game that Ever hosted. One of the last to die I believe." she gives a chuckles as she pushed a few locks up hair from her face "Though sadly, I'm not this time." she didn't say anything else before she takes a quick sip of her beer.
"I'm not gonna choose either, not until everyone has given their story. No point in jumping the gun. Plus I am curious about all the new people." setting her beer down next to her chair, she crossed her legs as she waits.

So far, no one had actually followed Ever's loose instructions. Avery took a drink from her cup and decided to change that pattern.
"Evening," She offered the group a polite smile, one hand smoothing the fabric of her skirt. "My name is Avery - I recently graduated DCU with a degree in marketing and economics and hold a position on the city council. I work primarily in the music industry." That took care of who she was and what she did, as for her innocence...
"I'd argue that our roles during the last game have nothing to do with our cards tonight, so the fact that I was a villager isn't exactly relevant. I'm very forward with my opinions and arguments, and it tends to get me killed off rather early. To be frank, I would make an excellent wolf. It seems much more entertaining than sitting with my head down all 'night,' but I'm not."

Ariel was glad when it was time to open her eyes again, taking a sip of her beer as the time for introductions came around. Sadly, no one was killed straight off, but whatever.
"I'm Ariel Mishnah. I hunt bad guys for a living, take that as you like." The dark haired woman said as she shrugged, popping more food in her mouth.

During the night phase, someone had gotten entirely too close to him and the moment Ever instructed them to open their eyes, he stared at the girl that got close as though she had suddenly sprung three heads and spit fire. He said nothing, but made a point to scoot away, listening to Ever's instructions and holding his tongue. He didn't want to be the first to speak, and thankfully, he wasn't.
They were all introducing each other, but Scott wasn't retaining names or faces. He couldn't. It was impossible for him to even think to do so, with so many different people, and so many reasons why they couldn't be a werewolf, outside of blatantly flashing their card. It was too much and it was so easy for Scott to want to shut down. But he held on, somehow.
"Scott." He said when it seemed appropriate. When it came to the other parts, like talking about himself and explaining how he couldn't be a werewolf, his mind drew a blank. Everyone was looking at him. That wasn't helping. "And I got nothing."

"Good evening," Jade said politely when it was her turn to talk. "My name is Yadira Sorah but everyone calls me Jade and I hope you do as well." A small, polite smile formed on her lips for a moment. "I'm a chef...." At this point she hesitated, not sure if she wanted to reveal more about herself and how she would continue from there. "As for why I'm not werewolf.... is because such card was not dealt for me." Not very creative answer but she wasn't sure what else she could have said.
