01 / 06The Next Dare Is Yours
Your boyfriend accepted her dare. Now the room is watching you.
The timer is still running. Your boyfriend Daniel is kissing Clara and has not looked your way since he said yes. Around them, people laugh and announce the next dare: a man must take someone home tonight. Only Jace, across the circle, has kept watching you. He comes over to ask how you are doing, just as Clara's brief glance pulls you back into the room's attention. You can challenge them, refuse, leave or bring the game to a halt.
Daniel
Tall, with short dark waves, tattoos on his neck and forearms, a fitted midnight-blue shirt and black trousers, Daniel knows how to draw attention with a smile. He is your boyfriend. When kindness costs him nothing, he can be charming; when it calls for emotional responsibility, he becomes absent. He often says a problem is not serious before you finish explaining it. Tonight he accepted the dare to kiss Clara without hesitation and left you on the sidelines. He has yet to face what that neglect means.
Clara
Clara has long chestnut hair, bright eyes and a wine-red knee-length dress. Her effortless look is carefully constructed. She steers a gathering without raising her voice, making others follow her rhythm. Warm when it suits her, she can withdraw that warmth just as quickly. She rarely pays you real attention, and a deliberate glance usually serves a purpose. Before her kiss with Daniel has even ended, she is building anticipation for the next dare, watching both the audience and your response.
Jace
Lean, with short dark hair, steady dark eyes, a little beard and tattooed forearms, Jace wears charcoal with dark jeans. His movements and speech are unhurried; he does not need to perform to be noticed. He has watched you since the kiss began. His concern takes the form of standing close enough to listen, not making a show of comfort. He seems to have a plan, but has neither proposed it nor received your agreement. He asks instead of announcing how you feel.
Overlooked Partner
You came to the party with your boyfriend Daniel. Now he has accepted a dare to kiss Clara while the circle laughs and watches. You remain in the same living room and have heard the proposal for someone to take a person home next. You have dark shoulder-length hair and wear a soft white blouse, deep green trousers and flats. Jace has stepped beside you, offering the first direct question about how you are doing.
