strip never have i ever!

[torako]

The classic party game! But with a sexy twist!

THE RULES
1: Post a top level in which your character shares something they've never done, starting with the phrase "Never have I ever..."
2: Check out what other people put up. If your character HAS done it, they have to take off a piece of clothing!
3: Generally keep track of how much your character is wearing as you go down the page.
4: If you're out of clothes, you may instead opt to perform a forfeit, determined by the person who got you! There are beds and a variety of toys over there in the corner, if you need them.
4.5: If you offer someone a forfeit and they don't want to do it because it's Not Their Kink, please respect that and either drop the thread or suggest something else.
5: You can cheer people on who are stripping in other threads or flirt with them or just express surprise that someone has/hasn't done the thing. Don't be afraid about jumping in on someone else's thread!
6: Just generally have a good and sexy time!

[...Maybe not, then.]

Ah, that does sound pretty spiteful. Hopefully the person Hades is with didn't get the wrong idea.

[ragingnature]

She, erm, definitely got the wrong idea. [ Her cheeks darken as she fidgets with her hair. ]

As did everyone else that saw the photo of me leaving his place the next morning. [ Because tabloids are a thing on Olympus. ]

[foolishjustice]

[He winces at that.]

Ah...mass media is...good at that.

[ragingnature]

Yeah...

[foolishjustice]

I wish I could say to ignore them, but I know how difficult that can really be.

[ragingnature]

It was taken care of. Hades wasn't particularly happy about having his privacy violated like that and he has some power as King of the Underworld.

But his girlfriend really doesn't like me even though there's nothing going on.

[foolishjustice]

Even if the story gets shut down, the damage can be done. It takes a lot to debunk a false rumor, especially when people take it personally.

[ragingnature]

Yeah... My classmates are actually frightened of me now that they know I have some ties to the King of the Underworld.

They all seem to think he's some kind of monster.

[foolishjustice]

Mm...Hades does have quite the bad reputation, among those who only think of him as the ruler of the Underworld. From my readings, though, he actually seems like one of the most level headed of the Greek deities. The only stories I've read of him delivering harsh punishments were about people who quite frankly deserved it.

It's a shame how readily people tend to accept such superficial assumptions at face value, isn't it?

[ragingnature]

It is. If they got to know him they'd know that despite his intimidating appearance he's actually just a big softie that has seven adorable dogs.

[foolishjustice]

Seven? I'd only heard of Cerberus.

[ragingnature]

That is one of his dogs. He's such a smart boy and is very protective.

[ She taps a finger to her lips. ] Let's see if I can remember the rest. There's Cordon Bleu and Russell. And, um, Fudge, Big John, Mushroom, aaaaand... Oh! J.P.

[foolishjustice]

I guess that answers the question of whether Cerberus counts as one dog or three.

[ragingnature]

Most of the time he only has one head and is only a little bigger than me. [ And she's not very tall to begin with. ] He only changes if he needs to be threatening.

[foolishjustice]

I guess it makes sense that he can take a more mundane looking form. A lot of creatures from Greek myth have some sort of shapeshifting...is that true of Orthrus as well?

[ragingnature]

Orthrus? I'm not familiar with that name.

[foolishjustice]

The two-headed dog of Geryon. According to the myths I've read, he was Cerberus' brother.

[ragingnature]

Maybe? Hades said all his dogs were strays or adopted from a shelter. But I've talked to some others and sometimes the things they know from their world about us is different.

Like, I've had some people call me Hades' wife and say he kidnapped me. Or that Zeus is my father.

[foolishjustice]

Are you Persephone? That's the myth I've read...though, tellings are split between whether or not you deliberately went along with it.

Of course, that in and of itself illustrates how unreliable they are. The stories are so old, and have been told by so many different people, that I'd be more willing to believe major details have changed than that they've survived intact.

[ragingnature]

[ She nods. ] Well, we're certainly not married and any kidnapping was unintental on his part.

There is that. Though it seems that in some worlds we don't exist or we did but no longer do.

[foolishjustice]

I can't really say for sure if you do or not, in my world. I know there are gods, but...it's all secondhand. I've never spoken to one directly to ask about other pantheons.

[ragingnature]

That seems to be common. So many have read or heard stories but not actually seen or spoken to any of us.

[ Except Harry Dresden, he's beenthe first she's spoken with that has met any of the gods. ]

[foolishjustice]

I know one has meddled in my life, but...

[His expression turns sour. His brow is also scrunching a bit, like he's trying to remember something that's just barely eluding him.]

He's just been using me as a pawn, and was counting on me not knowing.

[ragingnature]

[ That doesn't sit well with her. It leaves a sick feeling in the pit of a stomach knowing that a deity would do something like that. Then again, she's aware of some of the stuff Zeus gets up to so she wouldn't put it past one. ]

I'm sorry that happened to you. I know that doesn't make it better but... Ugh! It's not right for one of us to do that kind of thing to a mortal. [ Red thorned vines wind their way into a crown on her head as anger wells up in her. ]

[foolishjustice]

Don't worry, he's going to get what's coming to him. I'm not helpless, and neither are the other people he's manipulated. If I can use what I learned here to break free of his machinations...I can't quite put my finger on why, but I feel confident that I can help stand up to a god.
