And now...
...the much awaited OUAT Fanfic Drinking Game!!!
During the Season 3 winter hiatus of OUAT, I discovered the wonderful world of OUAT fanfics and have been avidly reading them ever since. And when I say avidly, I mean totally addicted. I've probably done more reading for pleasure in the past nine months than I have in my whole life. One thing I've noticed, though, is that the peeps who write at these sites seem to read each others' work and certain adjectives and phrases tend to get used over and over to the point of cliche. And being me, ;D I thought it would be pretty funny to make a drinking game of it!
So without further ado...
If the words vile, vial, or viol get misused, do a shot.
If green eyes, brown eyes, blue eyes, hazel eyes(or any plain eye color) is mentioned, take a sip of beer.
If smokey, chocolate, honey, emerald, or verdant is used to describe eye color, take 2 sips(and a bonus sip for creativity above and beyond these listed).
If referring to eyes as orbs, do a shot.
If the phrase 'green eyes met brown' (or any similar phrase) is used, do a shot.
If 's/he opened and closed his/her mouth like a fish out of water' is used, do a shot.
If 's/he exhaled a breath s/he didn't realize s/he was holding' is used, do a shot.
If 'she stood, smoothing out the creases in her clothes(or something like that)' is used, do a shot.
If Regina refers to Emma as Miss Swan, Sheriff, of Princess, take a sip of beer.
If Emma's red jacket is referred to as hideous, do a shot of that Red Bull crap('cuz I *am* evil ;P).
If older woman or younger woman is used, take a sip of beer.
If older brunette, younger brunette, blonde, or any hair color is mentioned, take a sip of beer that best matches the hair color--eg stout, amber, blonde wheat, or pilsner.
If Regina sneered, scoffed, huffed, snorted or rolled her eyes, take a sip of beer.
If someone refers to either Regina or Emma as insufferable, take a sip of beer.
If pale skin color is mentioned, or tanned, toned thighs, take a sip of beer that best matches. If olive was mentioned, eat the olive from your martini (or steal one from someone's martini, or the bartender's garnish caddy ;P).
Regina purring or husking calls for a body shot ;P
If someone is getting their nipple sucked and it is released with a pop, do a jello shot. ;D
If someone's hands are batted or swatted away, do a shot.
If Regina refers to Emma's bug as a death trap or yellow monstrosity, do a shot of lemon drop.
For a cheesy/goofy grin, eat some cheese puffs(cheesy poofs). (can also be done if someone magically poofs somewhere)
If someone is chewing on their bottom lip, chew on a Slim Jim ;P
If someone ruffles Henry's hair, eat a handful of Ruffle's potato chips.
So if you dare to play this drinking game while reading OUAT fanfic, I *highly suggest* you do it on a chapter by chapter basis because I am not responsible for your alcohol poisoning or exploded liver. ;)
BTW, any additional suggestions are welcome. :)

Hey, Xul. I couldn't help but riff off of your excellent drinking game rules. I do not unfortunately read any fan fiction ATM so I guess I lack the context to determine the accuracy of your quite thorough critique of OUAT FF stories. I have faith in you though. You go, girl! Show them!
Arekino, you had me ROFLMAO with some of those! :)
Would you mind if I shared a few of those replies with my FF friend?
Would you mind if I shared a few of those replies with my FF friend?
Go ahead. I'm just glad I made you laugh. :)
You're a funny, funny guy, Arekino. Maybe you should take a shot ::rimshot:: at writing a fanfic? Like what they call a drabble(just a short scene)?
Like what they call a drabble(just a short scene)?
I have no idea what it takes to write fan fiction. I don't really know what FF is like. Plus I'm way behind on OUAT.
I do like that word "drabble". :)
What was the reaction to your drinking game BTW?
I have no idea what it takes to write fan fiction.
Not very much. You just think of a story or a scene that you would like to see or something you'd like certain characters to say to each other. It can be anywhere from a few hundred words to multi-chapter epics exceeding 100,000 words.
I was even reexamining my idea for the Big Lebowski one. I could make it a "one shot" of Henry trying to convince Emma to play The Dude on behalf of MM who wants to put on a play. Then I could have Regina putting her 2 cents worth of snark into the mix. It would be funny and original. Peeps like funny and original. :)
What was the reaction to your drinking game BTW?
Raucous laughter and it was called creative and original. So well received IMO. :)
If Regina refers to Emma's bug as a death trap or yellow monstrosity, do a shot of lemon drop.
"Is bug a codeword for vagina here?"
Ya know, the more I think about that the funnier it gets. Emma *is* blonde. I'm assuming the carpet matches the drapes. ;P
Peeps like funny and original.
Yeah, generally speaking.
So well received IMO.
As expected then. :)
I'm assuming the carpet matches the drapes.
Unless she's got a linoleum floor... which I suppose could match drapes... but nice and smooth... easy to clean... a bit slippery when wet...
Anyway, if anyone can pen a decent,original, funny drabble, it's you. :)

LOL! So "linoleum floor" is code for Brazilian bikini wax? Muahahahahahahaha!!!! Arekino, you are hilarious!
Anyway, if anyone can pen a decent,original, funny drabble, it's you. :)
I suppose. I'm thinking about one now but it'll have to wait until after the gig on Sunday. QoH is driving me nuts over it. She can make the simplest things so complicated that you just want to jump off a bridge or something. :/
you are hilarious!
Hm, I probably shouldn't quit my day job yet though. Oh, wait, I don't have a day job. Meh, there's too many comedians in this world already.
the gig on Sunday
Ah, yes. Good luck with that. Should go well.
Doctor Who today. Gonna watch it. Gonna have me some fun. :)
Good luck with that.
Thanks! I'll let you know how it went after I get back. :)
Everything went well. I didn't burn anything or flip one onto the table. :)
I didn't burn anything or flip one onto the table.
I didn't think you would. :)
Wait, what do you mean by flip one onto the table?
And what did you serve?
(yeah, I know I'm up late. I'm going right to sleep now. Why not have a rest yourself? :)
what do you mean by flip one onto the table?
No omelets landed outside of the pan. :) I haz skillz. ;P
And what did you serve?
Bagels, whitefish spread, tuna fish, egg salad, hummus, baba ganoush, spicy Spanish eggplant, pitas, assorted breads, salad with a few different dressings, some thingy with quinoa, omelets...I think that's everything.
Someone told me that it costs $70,000 to join that club. I didn't believe it and just looked it up. Sure enough, it does. :O
yeah, I know I'm up late.
Yes, you *are* up late. ;)
Why not have a rest yourself? :)
I'll go to bed at my regular time. I don't feel too bad for having to get up at 7:30am. I took a sleeping pill before I went to bed last night. It usually means a dreamless sleep and I seem to wake up every couple of hours, but since I got at least 7 hours of sleep, I don't feel like total shit. My feet are killing me, though. I haven't done this for a while. :/ It's almost like that old joke: everything hurts and what doesn't hurt doesn't work. ;P
Someone told me that it costs $70,000 to join that club.
WTH? Is that some sort of millionaires club? Talk about keeping out the riffraff.
So does this mean the pay for this gig was higher than usual?
I haven't done this for a while.
Yeah, that's a difficult thing to maintain where you live. It's not a great place to take a little walk once in a while. :/
everything hurts and what doesn't hurt doesn't work
I doubt that's because you're getting old or something like that. You probably just need to practice, improve your stamina. Or maybe you need better shoes?
Is that some sort of millionaires club?
So it seems. The 70K is the initial fee for when you buy a home in there. IIRC, it's an additional 8-10K per year afterward for membership.
Talk about keeping out the riffraff.
Yeah, I joked to the guy that that's definitely one way to keep out the Section 8 crowd. ;P
So does this mean the pay for this gig was higher than usual?
Unfortunately, no. Wealthy peeps can be real cheapskates sometimes.
You probably just need to practice, improve your stamina.
It's just that my body isn't used to it any more. I used to be able to do 7.5 - 8 hours of walking around like it was nothing. This one was around 5.5 hrs and my feet were on fire(my back, too). Granted, I had a lot of walking to do with bringing in equipment. Before, that wouldn't even phase me. Sometimes I could do a short gig like that and then come home and mow the lawn afterward. Sitting around on my ass every day has destroyed my stamina. :/
Or maybe you need better shoes?
Nah, I wear Doc Martens. ;) Air cushioned soles and anti-slip. Any other type of shoe in this line of work and you could bust your ass on a greasy floor. So not just for metal heads. ;P
Where is my Arekino? Did he wank himself into a coma during The Fappening? ;P
Wealthy peeps can be real cheapskates sometimes.
Meh, too bad.
So, anything else on the horizon? A gig? Anything else? Anything fun?
Where is my Arekino?
Right here, my lady. You just missed me. :)
Did he wank himself into a coma during The Fappening?
Nah. Those pics weren't particularly interesting. Plus there's lots of free porn on the internet.
Hey, there ye be!
Those pics weren't particularly interesting. Plus there's lots of free porn on the internet.
Got that right. Celebs without hair/make-up/wardrobe and photoshop are as unappealing as most everyone else.
anything else on the horizon?
Client called from NY. She'll be back in October. Maybe something for her. :)
I had a pretty steamy sexy-times dream about you and me in the shower. Does that count as something fun? ;P
Celebs without hair/make-up/wardrobe and photoshop are as unappealing as most everyone else.
Well, I wouldn't go that far. I mean, I wouldn't say that celebs or everyone else are unappealing. You're not unappealing, for instance. (no, I do not use pics of you that way ;)
Does that count as something fun?
Of course. :) I really like the idea of sexy-time in the shower. It's quite intimate and there's lots of slippery sliding involved. ;) We used to have a bathtub in the previous house. I used to love to soak and splash around in that. Sex in the bathtub sounds like fun doesn't it? Although I do suppose there's special technique to it. ;P
Damn, why don't I get sexy dreams with you in it? ;P
I wouldn't say that celebs or everyone else are unappealing
I shoulda just said that they usually aren't any better than anyone else. I've seen plenty of peeps who aren't celebs who look much better.
You're not unappealing, for instance.
Obviously. ;P ;D
You're not so bad yourself. ;)
no, I do not use pics of you that way ;)
I don't know whether to flattered by your respect or offended. ;P
I really like the idea of sexy-time in the shower.
Me, too(apparently ;P).
Sex in the bathtub sounds like fun doesn't it?
Mmm-hmm. :)
FWIW, you always have nice smooth/soft strong hands in my dreams. Is this so in real life? And kiss good, too. I *know* you have nice looking lips IRL. ;D
Damn, why don't I get sexy dreams with you in it? ;P
IDK, maybe I should send ya some better pics? ;P
Speaking of pics, and I believe in giving credit where credit is due, Friday I was watching the weigh-in for UFC 177(?) and the ladies came up for their turn(Shayna Baszler vs Bethe Correia). So Baszler goes first, strips down to her undergarments, all standard black bra/bikini top/little shorts. Weighs in and waits for Correia to strip down and get on the scale. So Correia strips off and she's wearing what looks like a red bathing suit(strapless top and frilly bottom). I'm thinking, 'Okay, that's kinda different.' Then she weighs in and then steps off to go do the traditional stare-down with Baszler. But when she turns around, the backside of her bathing suit bottom is rather...revealing. The first thing I thought was, 'Damn, nice ass' The funny thing is that when I went to look for that pic, I wasn't the only one to think that. LOL Correia is what my friend Amanda from H/S would have called a "shipwreck" (#13 definition on Urban Dictionary). Good body, face not so much. Been taking too many punches, methinks.
I love MMA, but I HATE getting hit in the face. I wouldn't want to mess up my good looks like that. ;P I'd make a much better coach. ;D
I don't know whether to flattered by your respect or offended.
It's partly selfish. Fantasizing about unobtainable women is less frustrating than fantasizing about possibly obtainable women.
Is this so in real life?
I have no calluses anywhere on my hands so I guess I'd call them soft/smooth. I don't know about strong.
And kiss good, too.
That's the nice thing about dreams, you can make up whatever you please. :)
I've no idea if I have talent for kissing. I know for sure that I lack the skillz. So do you, probably.
maybe I should send ya some better pics?
That might help but you're not going to do that, I assume. I'd advise against it anyway. Even google might not be safe from hackers.
The first thing I thought was, 'Damn, nice ass'
Better not tell QoH about that. :P
Good body, face not so much.
Meh, her nose is a bit wide. Nothing too bad.
but I HATE getting hit in the face.
Really? Gosh, I wonder why? ;P
I have no calluses anywhere on my hands
Code monkeys are known for smooth paws. ;P
I don't know about strong.
You're a dude. They're strong by default. ;)
I know for sure that I lack the skillz. So do you, probably.
I'll need to prove you wrong some day. I haz the Xul swagger. I know what to do. ;D
you're not going to do that, I assume.
Certainly not nekkid tits and ass ones. ;P Maybe some with sultry smoldering Xul expressions. ;P
Better not tell QoH about that. :P
Yeah, lets not get her started on that again. Even though she is the one who has the obsession with physical appearances and asses in particular.
It's just that I watch so many of these things, and when the fighters go for the weigh-in, they are usually quite emaciated-looking from dehydrating so they usually don't look too good. Usually they are muscular but wiry-looking. Which proves the point that you can be fit and strong and still not look good nekkid depending on your body type. Correia is probably the first I've seen with a nice round ass. Some Iberian Peninsula genetics in the works, methinks(like yours truly ;P). Brazilians *are* known for nice butts.
Really? Gosh, I wonder why? ;P
Especially getting kicked in the face by sparring partners who weigh at least 100 pounds more than me. :/
Maybe some with sultry smoldering Xul expressions.
I doubt that will do it for me. Although it would be nice to see your face again. It's been a while.
Brazilians *are* known for nice butts.
Well, King Size butts. :D ;P
Especially getting kicked in the face by sparring partners who weigh at least 100 pounds more than me.
Somebody did that once? What was the damage?
I doubt that will do it for me.
Oh? Then what will "do it" for you? ;P
Somebody did that once?
Yep. My friend/next-door neighbor who I went to kung fu classes with.
What was the damage?
A very probable broken nose(didn't go to doc of course)that bled like crazy for almost a half hour. It was scary amounts of blood. I was scared, my friend was scared, his cousin was scared...probably more of QoH finding out than anything. I can tell you their bathroom sink looked like I was slaughtering animals in it. ;)
The most miraculous thing was I didn't get much bruising, just a little where my glasses sat on the bridge of my nose. I think QoH *might* have said something after a few days but I probably made up something like I got hit by a ball in PE class which earned me a mild scolding, but she never found out the truth and I intend to keep it that way. ;D
I got strikes to the head in kung fu class a couple times, once from some jerk of a guy while sparring even though strikes to the head were not allowed which set me off and instructors had to step in and grab me before I did damage, and then other accidental ones or open handed ones from instructors while doing blocking exercises. Never fun.
Anyhoo, yesterday was drama packed. QoH wanted to run some errands, but like usual, waits until the afternoon to get going. So finally we go to get in her truck and the damn thing didn't want to start(battery mostly dead). So I asked her if she left her lights on or something. Anyway, turned off the A/C, radio, unnecessary electric devices and waited a bit and when she tried it again, it just barely had enough juice to start.
So, ran the one errand and then came home. She wanted me to check the battery to see if it had any corrosion on the terminals(yes)and then I had to take time to clean that. But instead of having some sense and using my car to complete the errands, she is too much of a control freak and had to use hers. It started up initially, then we stopped for gas. It started up again and we went to Winn Dixie. It started up *hesitantly* from there and we went to Publix. I *was* going to suggest to her to let me go into Publix while she sat in the truck and ran it, but against my better judgement and to keep from arguing, I said nothing. When we got back out, the damn thing wouldn't start. So had her pop the hood and I played with it a bit.
To my surprise, a nice lady offered to give us a jump start after she unloaded her groceries. She even had her own cables so I didn't have to unload all our groceries to get to our own cables. Well, she tried, but it didn't have enough juice to start, so we had to call AAA. In the meantime, 2 other nice guys offered to help, but couldn't get it going. We were up in W Hollywood, BTW. I was shocked that there were still some friendly/helpful peeps left in S FL, certainly none where we live.
Anyway, AAA took and hour to get there(good thing I brought a small cooler to put the meat in). Their big trucks have a booster to jump start so it started right up. Went home, now today QoH "just doesn't know what to do" as she is paranoid of buying a battery from "just anywhere". ::face palm:: I'd just buy a cheap one because there's no guarantee that the expensive ones(like she buys) are going to last any longer. Sigh. Now I have that drama to look forward to(and spending more money that we don't have). :/
BTW, I had called my dad a couple times yesterday to ask how to do a couple things with the battery, and then he shows up this morning unannounced and had drama with QoH. She had to come wake me up to tell me. Couldn't wait until I got up for that. >:(
My old peeps are completely mental. :(
A very probable broken nose(didn't go to doc of course)
I guess you were still young and stupid? ;P
That must have hurt for a long time.
QoH *might* have said something after a few days
My mother would have spotted this immediately. Also, I probably would have told her.(and gone to the doc)
certainly none where we live.
Well, there's you. And where there's one of you there must be more of you. :)
I'd just buy a cheap one
Aren't there any brands that have good reputations?
My old peeps are completely mental.
Could be worse. They could be making out with each other. ;P
That must have hurt for a long time.
Not that long IIRC. Maybe just a few days.
The worst was the time I dropped the table thingy on my toe and smashed the hell out of it. That definitely had to be broken and my mother was in the kitchen when it happened(I was in the basement with my sister). I was howling and wailing in pain and she couldn't care less. No medical treatment for that, either. Not even a freakin' Tylenol. QoH was pissed that she had to bring ice for me to put on it. I was in agony for *weeks* and no one gave a damn. The bullshit excuse was always that "we can't afford the doctor". Looking back on it, I'm fairly sure my dad had health insurance through his job that covered me as well. QoH may have had me bullshitted back then, but I can see it for what it is now.
Aren't there any brands that have good reputations?
I looked some up on the 'toobs. It's hard to tell. Lots of conflicting opinions. It seems that all the different brands only offer 36 month replacement. You used to be able to get warranties up to 7 years, but no more it seems.
QoH is currently agonizing about making a decision about buying a damn battery. Now, instead of just getting one for her truck, she wants to spend extra money to buy one for my car even though mine is still working fine. All the drama and agonizing and stressing over it is making me insane. It's a fucking battery. Just buy one. Just because they only guarantee it for 3 years doesn't mean it's only going to last 3 years. Hers was supposed to be for 7 and only lasted 5. Mine was for 5 and has lasted 5 and is still working. There's no way of telling how long the damn things will last. It isn't worth worrying over, but she has to worry about Every. Fucking. Little. Thing. Seriously, I'm reaching my limit on how much of her paranoia and worrying I can take. :/
Ugh, QoH finally relented and the batteries were bought at Sam's where we already have a membership. Can you believe she was actually going to spend $50 to join Costco just so she could buy the battery $17 cheaper? The only reason that she didn't do that is because when I called, they didn't sell a battery that would fit my car as well. Her thought processes and decision making are warped and illogical. I just can't get over having to buy one for my car, too, even though the battery currently in my car is still working. O_o
And she took 2.5 hours in the store to buy an additional few items. :/
Now, I have to install the batteries myself and bring the old ones back to the store to get refunded the extra $30 they charge when you don't trade in the old ones on the spot. The most ridiculous thing is Sam's does free installation, but QoH is too paranoid to let them do it. I guess it's a win-win for her if for some reason I have trouble installing them myself, then she can berate me over it. I wish she would hurry up and die already.
I was in agony for *weeks* and no one gave a damn.
How old were you at the time? Couldn't you have gone to the E.R.? They have to help you there, right? Anyway, you have really shitty, abusive parents. Best thing is to get the hell away from them if you can.
I guess I should be glad my parents were never that bad. They just cared about their kids a little too much a little too often.
I wish she would hurry up and die already.
Ah, if wishes were pennies... :) What's the plan for after that happy occasion BTW? Have you planned out a post-QoH era? Worked out the details?
BTW, today is a babysitting day for me so I may not be offering any late night responses. See you tomorrow. :)
How old were you at the time?
Maybe 13 or 14. I don't think they had passed the law back then that made it mandatory to treat people even without insurance. If I had called 911 for an ambulance, they would have said it wasn't an emergency and to go to your regular doctor. Same with the ER. I had no way of getting there on my own as the nearest hospital is miles away.
you have really shitty, abusive parents.
Yes, unfortunately I have no one who would take me in and nowhere to go.
They just cared about their kids a little too much a little too often.
I'd gladly trade for ones like that.
Anyway, I must be psychic as what I predicted about having a problem installing the battery on my car happened. I put the one on QoH's truck with no problem(and she wasn't standing over me incessantly chattering and nagging at the time). When it came to my car, that is a little more complicated as everything is compact and I had to remove the air filter/cleaner thingy to get to the battery. Then, the battery is shoved up under the frame and hard to get out. I had a bitch of a time getting the old one out, QoH constantly in my ear running her mouth. Of course she had to start with the lesbian shit again and calling me all sorts of other horrible things and then put her finger 2cm in my face and flipping me the middle finger in my face so I had just about enough of her shit and hauled of and slapped her in the face. I didn't hit her flush as she dodged at the last minute so I just clipped her a bit. She wasn't too happy with that. ;P The she thought she was going to 'teach me a lesson' so I told her to come do it. All bluff on her part. I was so pissed off I was going to knock her ass out if she put her hands on me. Then she threatened to "sue me for elder abuse". More bluffs. I told her she has no proof since it's her word against mine. Then I told her to go fuck herself and went in the house and locked the door. She was locked out. ;P (taste of her own medicine)
Anyway, long story short, I eventually let her back in, I went out and since I didn't have her standing over me doling out abuse, I could think clearly enough to get the battery in(I had called my dad in the mean time to ask him if he could come help, he said yes, but I called him back to cancel since I managed to get the thing in myself).
Oh! forgot to add, while she was hovering over me spewing her bullshit I was trying to see if I could loosen some things to make room to squeeze the batter in. I undid a clamp around a hose to try to get it out of the way. Turned out to be a mistake as what appeared to be coolant came out. I quickly reattached it, but QoH had to shout more abuse at me for that even though only a little bit leaked out. It wasn't like I drained the entire reservoir. :/
Anyway, now because of that, we have to go spend more money to buy a jug of coolant to replace the less than an ounce that spilled out. ::facepalm::
What's the plan for after that happy occasion BTW?
I have no idea, all I know is that I will be overwhelmed with joy and will likely do a happy dance.
babysitting day for me
Have fun wrangling the kiddies! ;P
See ya later. :)
I've survived my adventures in babysitting, thankfully. Now for the remainder of the weekend, what to do?
I'd gladly trade for ones like that.
Meh, having a helicopter parent isn't that great, trust me.
How's the story telling progressing?
BTW, sleeping over at my sisters house wasn't that great. Too many mosquitoes trying to suck me dry. I hardly got any sleep. All I could do was hide under the duvet and hope I wouldn't get bit/stung/whatever.
Hey, I hope QoH didn't try to get revenge for that slap in the face. Better not eat any meals she makes. :/

Oh, QoH *is* one, so I know. A few years ago when I used to go to the beach with a friend from work and her husband, QoH used to call incessantly like I was a child who needed checking-up on. Friend's husband was like WTF? Helicopter parent much? She knows your like 30, right?
How's the story telling progressing?
It's not. And I stuck my foot in it by mentioning that I can draw better than I can write, so now I'm in the process of making at least 3 drawings. I started one last night(I don't know how I managed after all the drama)and then some conceptualizing for another, and looked up a few things as research for a third one. (first one is of Emma BTW)
Now someone just called for a gig for Friday so now there will be non-stop drama from now until then. I will not get a moment's peace to do anything. >:(
