[ clark has found a house for his family. kara and jon have bedrooms upstairs, on the ground floor there's a kitchen, a living/dining room and lois' bedroom/study. there's a basement that will eventually feature a pool table or similar but for now is pretty empty.

supers, feel free to write your own starters for moving shenanigans, domestic things, getting used to living together, having guests over, etc. ]

[Illya isn’t sure how he feels about the tiny umbrellas for the drinks, he doesn’t usually go for cutesy things. But they seem to fit Taako’s hair well and he does usually go for fashion, so he lets it go.]

You two do not know what you’re up against if you try to beat a Russian man at drinking games. [He takes a long sip of his scotch- even though he definitely prefers vodka. He makes a mental note to bring some, next time he visits.]

But I would not mind playing Never Have I Ever, if you want to. [Better option for Illya than Truth or Dare, for sure.]

I wasn't serious. [ lois protests, but honestly? she should have expected at least taako to jump at the suggestion and if she really didn't want to go down this road, she could have just kept her mouth shut. probably should have.

she glances at illya. ] But now I guess we have to. Just to test ourselves.

Hey, elves could be great at alcohol, you don't know shit.

[They aren't, they're about the same as humans, but nobody needs to know that just like Taako doesn't understand the cultural context of why a Russian would be very good at drinking games.

But the most important part is they've both agreed to it.]

Shots or sips?

[One is probably safer than the other.]

[nikolaievich]

They could be. [His tone very clearly says ‘but not better than a Russian man’. It’ll probably be safer for Taako to just assume that Illya thinks Russian men are the best at everything and go from there.]

Sips are probably safer. [Which, this isn’t Illya saying they shouldn’t do shots. Just stating a fact because there is a small child in the house.]

[contacts]

If they are, I'm at a distinct disadvantage.

[ lois doesn't sound too worried about it. but she also doesn't have an actual death wish and alcohol poisoning is not a fun way to go, so she adds: ] Sips it is.

[spellslots]

[Taako winks at Lois, as if giving a (not very) subtle hint that he's full of shit. Apparently either not realising or not caring that Illya can see it from where he is.

And he's just gonna dive straight in.]

Never have I ever been to grade school.

[Starting easy and clean, but he's fairly confident he's got this one. Illya and Lois both seem like they've had a decent amount of formal education.]

[nikolaievich]

[Illya doesn’t hesitate to take a sip, though now he’s curious about the kind of education Taako’s world has. Is there something like an elf school? And Taako did say there were different kinds of sentient beings. But that’s probably a conversation for another time.

He glances at Lois.]

I think Taako is going to have an advantage over us. A lot of things normal to us are going to be new to him.
