"Finally! I present to you a single shot! Any luck with A4?"
There was a gulp followed by a glass being sweet on a table.
"So I actually have three adopted brothers and a few biological I believe but I've never met them. If my parents decide to adopt more I'll have more then. I don't usually enjoy classic literature very much but Dorian Grey speaks to me.
"So.. If you were a bird what sort of bird would you be?

Finally! I'm calling beginner's luck on this!" Valeria said playfully. "Nothing on A4, but I think you have something on E2"
"Wow that sounds like a big family! Your parents must be super kind and really wonderful people to adopt so many kids. Did they choose to adopt all boys?" That pretty much can be a band." Valeria commented, amazed.
She had to think for a moment about birds. "Hmmm I never thought about that before. I'd be either a flamingo becuase they're really colorful or a snowy owl because they love snow. What about you?"

"Ok.. so I am secretly a good battleship player. But that is a miss.. A3? He chuckled.
"Well my mom cant have kids..so she kinda always had the dream of having a group of little boys. It worked out for her, we've had foster sisters but none that stayed. We're basically the jonas brothers but alternative." He laughed
"I would probably be a grackle but I wanna say I would be a cool raven."

"That's a miss, but you're not that far off. D6? I'm going to laugh if you picked a bunch of spots with like numbers and letters that mean stuff to you, like birthdays of your siblings something,"
"I'm going to be really honest with you here. I have no clue what a grackle is," Valeria said with a laugh, "Is it like a really scary looking bird or something?"
"Hey as cool as alternative music is, I gotta say that the Jonas Brothers have some really catchy songs though!" Valeria added, "I wouldn't call myself a music connoisseur or anything though, we play whatever is high energy and selected by Alexa at the brewery. It's just gotta be loud because brewing is loud business."

"Another miss but getting close.E1?" He chuckled. "Nope all the most random numbers I could think of."
"Grackles are just the absolute most standard black birds. Like with how I dress I know I'm a black bird." He laughed.
"So I honestly do like some mainstream music. I'm not a snob about it at all I just like when music serves a purpose. If you like high energy theres this band cash cash. They've got a song I like it loud.. Really good and high energy. I usually jog to it."

"And thatttt would be a hit..." Valeria said with a laugh.
"Bottoms up," she said, before taking the shot and letting the empty class clink back down to the table. "D4? I gotta catch up, or more like I gotta catch you up!"
Ooo I'll have to look them up once we're out of here and have internet again!" Valeria vowed, "It's so weird being without internet to look up stuff like grackles," she added with a laugh, "but it's also kinda nice to not have any distractions. I miss talking to my brother, but I think I'm handling the no outside contact thing pretty well. What about you? Miss the internet yet?"

"Oooh yet another miss. A2? Im dying here Val, I need some sweet sweet drinks in me." He laughed. "Youre almost hitting these and its killing me."
"Honestly not as badly. I don't really like a lot of social media, looking up new music is like the only thing I miss but I brought an mp3 player. Yes one of the old dinosaurs. I miss my family, I hate missing the dinner nights with them but once I bring someone home that mom can fawn over I will be forgiven." He chuckled to himself. "I can see it now Alex Riley why don't I have grandchildren! When am I going to get to get that daughter I wanted? Are ya trying to kill me of old age before then?" He mimicked his moms voice with a laugh.

"No way! That's another hit! Are you sure you can't see through that glass? Is this one of those one way things?" Valeria exclaimed before pounding another shot with a clink. "D5."
"Smart thinking, I haven't even seen an MP3 player in forever, but I think I still have my old walkman somewhere in a box."
"My brother got engaged less than a year ago, so my mom has me off the hook for a while," Valeria said with a laugh. "We adore his fiance Julie so I'm even more nervous about bringing someone home. I've never actually brought anyone home to meet my mom before, though my brother and I were roommates for most of college so he's met probably everyone I've gone out with."

"Jesus really? Thats what three now? b2? and that is a miss but you're right on top of one." He teased a little.
"I just knew I wasn't gonna be able to get anything done without some amount of music. I also brought my guitar so I can jam a little."
"None of my brothers are married so I'll be the first of the pack. I've never brought anyone home either but my youngest brother has. It was.. interesting to say the least" He chuckled a bit. "So your family, tell me about them, what are your parents like?"

"Miss! This is the most intense battleshots game ever! E5." Valeria exclaimed, "Don't worry I'm only a tinyyyy bit tipsy so far," she announced.
"Oooo look at you all serenade ready," Valeria teased. "I guess your brothers might have to step up their game after you bring home someone mom loves. My brother brought home like three girls before he found the perfect one. The first one was so obviously a mistake though."
"How'd your mom take your brother bringing someone home?"

"Hey a hit! C3?" He chuckled as he downed the shot, clinking the glass onto the table. "I feel like im winning.. or losing really but still."
"Oh yeah im ready, gonna trash this pod in real rockstar fashion you know? He teased right back. "Oh trust me my mom is wanting those grandkids. She wont stop until we all have them. How big of a mistake was this girl?" He laughed at her wording.
"Well the girl in question was catholic..my family is pretty non religious. It was really awkward when she wanted to say grace and none of us really knew how. Not that we didn't try it was just odd for us. She kinda cut and ran after a few weeks.. Andrew has neon colored hair.. That shoulda been her first clue he wasn't really gonna go for the church on sundays thing. In short.. mom liked her but she kinda had a feeling it wasnt gonna go well."

"Oh thank god you're breaking that hit streak! Miss! C3?" Valeria cheered for herself when Alex said that she finally got another hit. "That's the beauty of Battleshots, everyone wins and loses at the same time," She said with a laugh. "Don't worry, the rest of that bottle is yours for you to sip on the rest of this crazy week."
"Yikes, yeah probably a nice girl but doesn't sound like a great fit," Valeria said with a laugh. "Ok so Ryker's first girlfriend and Ryker if you're watching this sorry not sorry" she said to the camera. "Ryker's first girlfriend is what I picture when I think about the mean girls in early Taylor Swift music. It was freshman year of college and she was trying sooo hard to get me to like her and I swear I tried! But she was so catty about every other girl that hung out in the apartment and stuff. I don't know but a few months later was fall break and somehow I found myself in the back of the car while she was riding shotgun. Mom had reservations too but Ryker was weirdly happy." Valeria said with a laugh, "Anyways he got dumped by her on Valentine's day and we never saw her again. He didn't even date again for almost a whole year."

"Alright alright another hit! See there we go you're on a streak now. A1?" He guessed as he downed another shot. "I am gonna need it after tonight with the guys, It's always stressful when you hear someone else has eyes for the same people you do, it's like 'oh great' because a lot of these guys are awesome and I want to be like 'no you like her I'll back off' but I cant really do that here." He laughed a bit.
"That sounds like a huge yikes. I tend to always find myself drawn to the wrong people so I never really pursued anyone until my tastes changed. I know my mom would have beat my ass for bringing some of the girls I kinda liked home when I was younger. Then again I hung around with a shitty crowd so I can totally get it now. Hell I would kick my own kids ass."

"Now I have to keep it going but I probably just jinxed myself for saying it," Valeria said with a laugh. "Miss, and I'm going with A4 as I cross my fingers."
"I've never been a nervous person but I'm totally nervous about how things are going to end up. Like yesterday a girl already said she found the one," Valeria admitted. "Part of what makes this cool is that I've never had that many girl friends but also all the guys I've dated here, even if I don't end up with them, they'll be lifelong friends. Going through an experience like this really has to make people close friends."
"And yeah, there's a reason I've never brought anyone home to mom," Valeria added, "I'm glad I had my brother to stop me with some of them. I think it's really crazy how what I wanted when I was younger has changed with what I want now."

"Ooh close but no. A2?He chuckled.
"Yeah.. Let me guess Dean and Lainey? Deans a cool dude. It definitely made me kinda feel the pressure to put more effort into this. Despite it all I still worry that this isn't gonna work for me. The rest of the guys are honestly awesome." He said.
"Yeah it's really crazy how your tastes change as you get older. I used to want someone who was everything bad for me. People get this notion that im some fun party guy and that just isn't the case so that was the people I attracted. He said with a shrug

"Mind reader!" Valeria exclaimed before taking another shot and setting it down with a clink, "A5, now I really gotta catch up!"
"And yeah, Lainey came in pretty decisive and I don't know how she did it, I really do hope Dean feels the same about her. I felt guilty my entire date with him because Lainey is really awesome." Valeria confessed. "I always thought you had to date someone for a year or two before even thinking about marriage, but I guess all bets are off here. One date sounds crazy but there's like a billion songs out there that says love is crazy so I'll roll with it." she added with a laugh.
"Awww you're not a fun party guy? I always thought that was my type," Valeria teased.

"Oooh another miss but so so close.. B1? wait do you still have shots left.. I am officially awesome at this game."
"Im glad for them. Honestly I liked lainey and probably would have asked for another date with her but she kinda made me feel guilty about drinking? I can just imagine it wouldn't have turned out very well so I'm happy her and him found eachother. I feel a lot of pressure to be something Im not here honestly.. Like I have to try hard and Im just not that guy who throws it all out at once.. I guess there are a lot of the whole love is crazy songs." He laughed a bit.
"I am totally a sweats and cuddles and comfort guy. Not that I am not an absolute champ at beer pong but parties have never been my scene. I kinda like the idea of taking things easy. So what about you, are you miss Party girl?" He teased.

"Hey now I still have 2 left! A6. But yes, I'll admit that you're pretty good, with a beginner's luck bonus," Valeria teased. "And I don't think I'm particularly a party girl these days, but I do admit that's the type I tend to go for." she said with a laugh, "historically speaking of course, but that might come with the whole I own a brewery thing."
"I don't think I could be with someone who's against drinking, obviously not too much or anything but I do enjoy alcohol, if you can't tell" Valeria said, "I like chill parties, maybe some live music, beer pong, battle shots, but nothing completely insane. I'm totally not a club girl, and the whole mini dress and heels are the opposite of my style."
