video; un: saxitup | two truths, one lie

[saxsongs]

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.

there are people whose beast shapes are strong enough to fly passengers but
I probably wouldn't be able to hire one
and it'd still take a while even if I could
we don't have fast travel like here

any reason you can't travel if you go home
?
or in the future

Not even cars?

Does the place you're from have stuff like jewels or metals that are super valuable?
Because like
Wishing Dandelion could get A LOT of fancy stuff you could sell

I dunno about the future

But right now its a no.
I asked Knuckles about it, he thinks its a bad idea
Blue isn't a common color and it draws attention
And we have similar power levels
He's been captured A LOT to fight in gladiator pits and stuff like that because of his
He doesn't want me to get pulled into that
Plus it does kind of ruin the ability to sight see if people want to throw me in a pit when I'm just trying to enjoy a virgin pina colada

[And okay, its a lot more than THAT, but he's not going to get into he's an infinite power source, gladiator pit is a bad enough to work as an excuse without standing out in Ellipsa.]

Maybe when I'm older and we're just more prepared and stuff maybe
Just not now

And if Knuckles doesn't want to go, I can't go.
Being able to travel requires being able to picture where you go
And Tails refuses to go back to his world
So if Knuckles says no, no it is.

no cars
or bikes or airships or whatever
seems kind of weird now that I've seen them but
most people can go way faster than a human can on their own feet or wings
so I guess there wasn't any reason to invent any of that shit

I could get a lot of money sure but it'd look suspicious
good way to get people assuming I'd stolen it all
and even if I could pay
a lot of people would probably refuse service anyway

[ a pause as she reads through the rest of that, then: ]

uuuUuuUgH
okay that's a lot of bullshit
but it sounds like it might not be a complete fucking wash if it really matters to you
just gotta be patient
and work on good strategies for dealing with the bullshit
maybe also pick up safer places to go while you're here too
?
some people have got ways to world hop or whatever here
they just can't because we're all stuck for now

That is weird.
I can run faster than any car
Or train
Or ship
Or plane
But you know what I can't do?
Nap and run.
And only carry so much stuff.
Like there is a lot of uses for vehicles even when they are slower

Why would people refuse service?
Usually money talks.

Yyyyeah.
Or at least figure out how to temporarily dye my quills

Wait is that really an option
That people just
Have?
Because I've been wondering about doing stuff like that!
There's a corporation I need to help jailbreak people out of and the whole other dimension thing was a Problem

Re: un: Eve 🔪, text

[wroughtandtempered]

we have ships
and for carrying stuff we have carriages and wagons
they're just pulled by people
most people don't need to travel that far either unless they're migrators or whatever

money doesn't fix everything unfortunately
it's a long fucking story and even more fucking bullshit
but the short version is my magic is uncomfortable for most people to be around
and the common belief is that it's okay to be shitty about that

anyway quills are just keratin aren't they
?
hair dye should work
or maybe there's a potion or something here to change color I wouldn't be surprised

[ ... ]

I don't know every option but I know one of my friends has friends who have offered to pick her up if she ever goes home
and my brother-in-law-to-be knows someone who can travel I guess
?
and I've got a phone from the last world I got kidnapped to that would let me visit anyone else I knew there

which I was going to see if I could get the network expanded on anyway
but if you need a safehouse or something
...

Re: un: Eve 🔪, text

[sonic_wachowski]

But why wouldn't they want to travel far?
What's the point of having wings if you're not going to go as far as you can sometimes?

Oh.
That kind of situation.
The worst kind of Mood.
People need to stop being jerks about that.
What is so hard with basic level respect to people?

I have no idea.
They're just pointy.
They don't like coloring so much though.

[Probably because they're thermonuclear reactors anytime he gets too emotional.]

A potion might do it.

To be?
Congratulations!
But yeah, if you think they won't mind me asking some questions, I could hit them up.
See what options I'm working with.

I got a safehouse in mind for these guys.
They're a little tricky because of Circumstances, but me and my friend got a place figured out I think.

And for reference this is for other people.
My home life's great.
Love my parents.
Wouldn't stick around Green Hills near as much if I didn't love the people.
