Some of us have to work, you know. We'd never be sober. Which would lead to MORE sweeping generalizations, violence and the like until we were all passed out.
At least we wouldn't have to worry about the magical objects anymore. That stupid ball of yarn has really gotten me into some trouble. You eventually rid yourself of the horse, yes?
That's sort of the point, Morgan. If I'm too inebriated to sit at my desk, I can stay home and avoid my mother, since sleeping off a hangover is about the only thing she understands. But you don't have to play right now, or you could grab a soda. Whatever works for you!

Though maybe with this crowd, it's a bad idea to suggest a mass playing of the game.
And yes, I gave him back to Velvet before I ended up accidentally in the middle of a very large crowd without the ability to be as amazingly understanding as you. What did your yarn ball menace do?
If we played en masse, I think the fears of alcohol poisoning would be realized. On a large scale. The paramedics would find us passed out, face down in our Compendiums.
Oh geez. Then the world would know about all of the Tale stuff. Or think we're all a bunch of lunatics who keep a copy of the exact same handwritten book. Like a cult.
It was mostly a good thing, really - to make a long story short, helped me find a girl that had been abducted. But since I couldn't explain to my superiors HOW I'd found her, I'm under investigation at the station now.
So I'm glad it did what it did; I just hope my career doesn't suffer for it.
That's fantastic you found her, but I can't even imagine how tough that must be, having an answer for it you can never give.
God, they don't really think you're responsible, do they? Do you need a lawyer? I can call in a favor if you do, not that you could tell him much either, but he's a damned good attorney. Or need anything else, at all?

This is steadily becoming a worse idea.

I could use someone to vent to, though.
