Of course Miles just had to give Iris a difficult challenge. Caspian shook his head, to which his friend shrugged, brushing off his condescending look. He glanced at Iris in wait for her reply, unsurprised when she chose to take a shot rather than complete the dare. Eating something super hot on top of dinking liquor straight could make anyone sick to their stomach. He would have been hesitant to accept a challenge like that too. Apparently, Jay was more brazen than both of them though.

“Actually, I think I’m gonna do a double dare,” the other high born announced, shooting the prince a smug grin.

[color=#b97703]“Damn it,”[/color] Cas groaned. Knowing that Iris wouldn’t know what they were talking about, he leaned over to her to explain. [color=#b97703]“We’ve got a house rule that if someone chooses not to do their dare, the next person to play can do the dare they’re assigned [i]and[/i] the one right before them and make someone else take two shots.”[/color] He narrowed his eyes at his friend accusatively. [color=#b97703]“I feel like you’re trying to make me sick.”[/color]

“Maybe,” Jay lifted his hands in a shrug, feigning an air of mystery. “We’re supposed to make the king think you were out clubbing all night. I’m just trying to speed the process along.”

[color=#b97703]“Sure you are,”[/color] Cas drawled. He looked down at his glass with a wince. Having already downed the equivalent of three shots, two more would put him up to five, which was a lot to keep down in just the span of a few minutes. He had a feeling that he was going to be [i]very[/i] hungover the next day if he kept up at this rate. Not to mention he would have to be especially careful about picking which rounds to skip by taking another shot, since he didn’t want to get blackout drunk before he went home. There was a line between coming up with a realistic cover and making himself unnecessarily miserable.

“Jay can’t pass on dares,” Miles reminded them with a snicker. “Give him a good one, Iris. He’ll have to do it [i]and[/i] eat whatever I find in the kitchen.” He clapped his hands together. “This is gonna be fun.”
