video; un: saxitup | two truths, one lie

Hello! Some of you might remember me, but in case you don't - my name is Ren Jinguji. I returned during New Years and I'm resuming my work as an idol!

[With rewnewed energy, as one might notice from his annoyingly sparkling smile.]

But that's not why I'm making this post, really. I want to propose a game! Something so we can get to know each other better.

This is, two truths, one lie. Write three things about yourself, one of which is a lie. Others will have to guess which one it is. Of course, you can also reply as a video or a voice message, if that's easier.

Simple, right? Let's have fun.

I'm choosing both sets.

[ TAKE THAT!! ]

First set: 2.

Second set: 3.
rustyhonesty: (Neutral)

[personal profile] rustyhonesty 2025-02-04 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
The first one is wrong. I have, in fact, participated in killing a dragon. Even if not here.

Second one is right, I've never tried being a delivery man.
hometown: (hmmmm)

[personal profile] hometown 2025-02-04 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
I knew it. You're too skilled with swords and medicine to have not studied. Plus you're an overachiever.

[ Pot, meet kettle. ]

First set, then. 3?
rustyhonesty: (So tired again)

[personal profile] rustyhonesty 2025-02-04 05:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow, no need to call me out like that.

[Especially since you're the same Reiner, geez.]

That's the lie, yeah. Also something I never want to experience.
hometown: (sitting from above)

[personal profile] hometown 2025-02-04 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Getting stabbed isn't a pleasant experience.

[ Thanks, Mikasa! Thanks, Levi! ]

Your turn. Find the lie:
1. Jean is an overachiever.
2. Jean goes above and beyond.
3. Jean is a poopy-head.
rustyhonesty: (Grumpy)

[personal profile] rustyhonesty 2025-02-04 05:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[He has gotten stabbed, but that's beside the point.]

Poopy-head? Really? How old are you, Reiner? But I won't deny that the two first are true.

[But two can play this game.]

1. Reiner has too little confidence in himself.
2. Reiner calls his biceps Billy and Freddie.
3. Reiner also works too much and shouldn't call other people out because of that.
hometown: (EW GROSS)

[personal profile] hometown 2025-02-04 05:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't ask me that. Do you know how weird it is that I'm younger than you?

[ But WOW, this low blow! ]

You know what? I should start calling them Billy and Freddie to make that true.

Anyway, you work harder than me these days.
rustyhonesty: (Melancholy)

[personal profile] rustyhonesty 2025-02-04 06:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I constantly forget that I am and treat you as the older one, tbh.

[Then something reminds him he's 20 now.]

That wouldn't make the other two untrue.

Maybe.
hometown: (what's written on the ceiling)

[personal profile] hometown 2025-02-04 06:18 pm (UTC)(link)
What's "tbh"? And my confidence is fine.

[ He says, like a liar. ]

Definitely. Until the day I start my own business, you win the "works harder" competition.

[ . . . ]

Although, I've been meaning to talk to you about that. Your business.
rustyhonesty: (Skeptical)

[personal profile] rustyhonesty 2025-02-04 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
It's short for 'to be honest'. And yeah right.

[He knows you too well, Reiner, don't lie to him.]

Do I at least get a trophy.

What about it?
hometown: (sitting from above)

[personal profile] hometown 2025-02-04 06:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I've been thinking about it. How you started something from scratch, and how you create stuff for other people.

And I was thinking about the trinkets I make. You know, the ones you can fiddle with, and the ones that are pretty shapes. Some have magical enhancements on them, too.

People seem to really like them. I like making them. So ... I was thinking about starting up a little business and selling them.

What do you think?
rustyhonesty: (Positive)

[personal profile] rustyhonesty 2025-02-04 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I think that sounds like a great idea and I support it, definitely. You have a talent making them.

Starting a business here is very simple, even. You just buy a permit and find a place for yourself. They also offer to help set up the store, if you want that.
hometown: (glance back)

[personal profile] hometown 2025-02-04 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Really? I thought there would be a lot of forms and red tape and stuff.
rustyhonesty: (Ah?)

[personal profile] rustyhonesty 2025-02-04 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
So did I, but I guess they want to make it as simple as possible. It was the same in Avalon.
hometown: (how dare he look like this)

[personal profile] hometown 2025-02-04 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
That's good to know. Thank you, Jean. I wasn't sure if I'd go for it, so I'm glad you think it's a good idea.
rustyhonesty: (Smug)

[personal profile] rustyhonesty 2025-02-04 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Anytime. I'll definitely visit the shop.

Then we can share the overachiever mantle.


[So he says, but the amount of weapons he's practicing might beg otherwise.]
hometown: (smugly smug)

[personal profile] hometown 2025-02-04 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
No way. That's staying on your shelf.
hometown: (drunk asshole)
