If this adventure with chain mail has taught me anything, 'tis that many of us here are having our first exposure to the internet, with all its amusements and pitfalls included. Thus, I thought it might be nice to introduce another 'getting to know each other' game that some of us might not know yet. This one won't involve pictures or ratings of attractiveness, not to worry.

This game is called 'two truths and a lie'. The premise is simple. You list three statements about yourself, two true and one false. Ideally they should all be similar levels of unbelievable. Then, other people respond to you to guess which one is the lie. We all learn a little about each other and have a bit of fun.

HOW EXCITING this is fine everything's great

[kingside]

[Not quite picking up on that, in fact, because uh.]

May I ask what from?

[The wreckage of their home, perhaps? A wild animal attack? Something else that definitely doesn't involve parental abandonment even a little?]

[veileddreamer]

Access key? What are you trying to access?

<3

[at_heart]

[ ............................... ]

Yes

[kingside]

[Right.]

Nothing else for it. A pity.

[essenceborn]

Oh. Nothing right now. This was back in my world, before I came here. We had hermetically sealed doors that didn't open unless you put the right code in.

[veileddreamer]

That makes sense. We had those too. I have not had to worry about them for awhile now though.

I do not like those doors.

[butterflyeffecting]

Well that seems really lame an unfair!!!

2/2

[butterflyeffecting]

But having wings at all is really cool!!! I bet you look so impressive!

[butterflyeffecting]

You are not wrong!!! The magic we used came from our Personas, which have all the strength and speed and stuff.

The suicide thing isn't actually as bad as it sounds... I use something that looks like a gun, and makes the same sounds, but doesn't hold any real bullets.

[See?? It's fine!]

[butterflyeffecting]

hehehe („• ֊ •„)

[ Hlasoh looks up at Oryou, a grin lighting up her face. Her interest is absolutely genuine. You can't spend years of your life learning about dimensionally anomalous entities without being a bit of a monster enthusiast. ]

Beautiful.

[ She opens her senses, her mind expanding to listen to the songs that this Dragon may sing. Trying to get a read on just what sort of eldritch entity she's dealing with. Already, the sense of power is spectacular, and she can sense a few other things as well. ]

You are not a being of only flesh and blood, are you? There's a more rarified substance, a great quantity of pneuma. And... you were once summoned, were you not? That is your present form. An entity shaped into a form through interaction with human artifice.

[dereban]

Not everything will be dealt with through sign ups.

Friends give friends their eyes, right? Right.

[gentledawn]

I don't know. My parents couldn't care for me. They left me in a place where I was easy to find.

[He doesn't hold any ill will. But that's just Xiao Xingchen.]

[roundandaround]

That's weird, it would make more sense for it to.

[emissarium]

That is exceedingly unfortunate. I had thought that other stars would have the same kind of love and appreciation amongst fellows that mine does, but it seems as if the bonds of fellowship differ between them all. It is interesting to learn about, but unfortunate for those who must live with it.

[firenese]

That makes two of us. There are so many mysteries of how this world works. And to protect the people within... I must rise the occasion.

[firenese]

That makes two of us, to be sure!

[tsumtsuki]

[ yuuto no he's not cool at all ]

That's correct! They were actually the same performance. I don't think I'd believe it happened if I wasn't there...

[emissarium]

Are you concerned it might be yourself, Emet-Selch?

But it was Lahabrea, during the matter which I have been tasked to investigate by Azem.

[emissarium]

As it currently stands resolved, I see no reason as to withhold information about it. There will be a report filed in due time, of course, but suffice to say that we wished to view the moment Lahabrea decided to tear out a 'corrupted' part of his soul and lock it away in a crystal. He viewed his wife as the origin point of this corruption -- and I cannot fault his logic having viewed the memory myself.

This corrupted part of his soul had recently taken form, you see, and was causing the havoc I was sent to investigate.

( do you ever just refuse to deal with your feelings so much you cut them out of you??? )

[tsumtsuki]

[ And he'd be happy to listen to her talk about Starlight forever! But since she asked... ]

Yes. Back home, I'm a part of Mankai Company. We're a troupe of 24 male actors, divided into sub-troupes named after the seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. Each sub-troupe has a genre their plays typically fall into. For example, Winter Troupe, the one I'm a part of, leans toward tragedies and emotionally-driven stories.

But I was an actor even before Mankai. I started in elementary school with my childhood friend, and have been deeply in love with theater ever since. [ minus the few years he took off because of Trauma, It's Fine, Really, He Had His Character Arc About This ] It sounds like we're kindred spirits in this, junjun!

[ 🤝 theater nerds ]

[tsumtsuki]

I'm glad to hear that. [ hahaha wow so glad this stranger's not hurt and didn't lose his leg on purpose! how great! ignorance is bliss!!!!!! ]

Are you still interested in drama?

[tsumtsuki]

[ Tuxedo Mask... sounds really cool! ]

I would love to see you transform sometime! If you don't mind, that is. [ fellas is it gay to ask your friend to magical girl transform for you ] I've seen transformations like that in shows, but never before in real life.

[takehold]

That sounds familiar. One of my classmates made a promise with her childhood friend to perform in a certain play together as children. It was very powerful motivation for her.

[ Karen, you wonderful, amazing, idiot. ]

I sort of fell in love with it as a kid. Then I had to really work hard to convince my parents to let me go to a theater-centered high school. They really wanted me to go somewhere more traditional and focus on a different career.

I proved to them that I was dedicated to my dream.

I think we are! It's nice to meet someone who has a similar passion. Even in a weird circumstance like this.

[ Theater nerds! 🤝 ]

[UHHHHHHHHH]

Why was the moon an alien goddess egg.
