Indeed, indeed. I don't get the idea of joining a RP but keep on doing solo posts over and over again. I understand that some people want to play the brooding/aloof/silent archetype but this rarely works in a group narrative.
Either way, @Bushman501, don't worry, Eris would not go so far as to keep pushing Linda to drink more than she can handle. As for drinking age, I guess that something like this might not be relevant within the context of a WW I Europe analogue like Europa. I mean, if Gallia is ok sending children to the battlefield, they can't be against these same children drinking. I think that anyone above 12 would be fair. I mean, on certain parts of Italy, up to this day, they dip pacifiers, or a piece of cloth in whine and give it babies. In the end, I really think that it depends on the specific morals of the community where one grows up. The more traditional and removed from the modern view of morals, the more likely children are to take on adult traits/responsibility from a younger age.
Even so, Eris being a teacher might not approve of children under 14~16 drinking. Just like she doesn't like the idea of children going to war. Maybe she can see a child younger than that as being able to assume a few simple adult responsibilities, but certainly not as being able to deal with their weight very well. Definitely, 14 is youngest age anyone can be considered able to decide stuff by themselves.
However, Linda is fair game, since she seems to be adult (young and unripe, but still adult) in every possible way, under Eris' view. The experience might do her good.
PS: Oh, geez, just look at what I did. Somehow this post because a mini sociology essay. Lol.
