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.

Eh. Why not? It's not that bad.

Oh.

...I suppose the better question to ask now is to ask if you are going to be okay.

I don't mind. It's not a very impressive transformation, but I don't have any problem showing it off.

[... An interesting way to put it. He'll have to think about that one.]

Symbolically, perhaps. My favorite season is winter, though. That said, autumn isn't terrible. If anything, I'd say it's the most comforting season.

Britannia.

[personal profile] rustyhonesty 2023-04-07 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not wearing a padding on my head that would make me look ridiculous.
kingside: (ugh god no)

[personal profile] kingside 2023-04-07 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[Damn it. Fine.]

What would you like to know about it?
rustyhonesty: (Default)

[personal profile] rustyhonesty 2023-04-07 07:58 pm (UTC)(link)
We do get days off when it's not a serious ongoing situation. But those situations sometimes leave you looking over your shoulder.
rustyhonesty: (I'm still waiting)

[personal profile] rustyhonesty 2023-04-07 08:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh.

What was the lie?

[The way it's sad gets Vash to stiffen, his shoulders rigid.]

I— well, it—

[He can feel heat creep up the back of his neck anew, his gaze fixed on anywhere but Wolfwood himself. But he nods, the movement jerky, but clear.

It certainly feels like it meant something. Vash swipes his tongue over his lower lip again before he sucks most of it between his teeth to worry at the skin of it. Something scary, new, and altogether dangerous. Like it's a direction they shouldn't take for so many reasons.

And yet, there's a yearning that, if only because of the conversation they'd JUST had, Vash is having a hard time ignoring.]

And yet, it'll make you not have to worry about getting injured.

It wasn't common for dragons where Oryou's from.

[personal profile] demiflora 2023-04-07 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Where do you work here?
demiflora: (Architect's Dream)

[personal profile] demiflora 2023-04-07 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Setting up...? Are you doing that a lot here?
kerontribution: (together they would travel)

[personal profile] kerontribution 2023-04-07 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
He is. He'd be hopeless without Oryou.

[Despite that, she sounds fond when she says it.]

Honestly? That might actually be the case.

Yeah, my dad is pretty good at it too.
nihilmancy: (Neutral)

[personal profile] nihilmancy 2023-04-08 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. This land doesn't have royalty at all.

I suppose I have the same motivations, more or less.
nihilmancy: (Neutral)

[personal profile] nihilmancy 2023-04-08 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
Only what you are willing to tell me.

Why is Britannia not based on the island that it is named after?

You know, sadly, I only heard the tale secondhand from another colleague. My apprentice was a very mischievous one.

Heh. [ She has no plans getting attached anytime soon herself, but cracks a little smile. ] Some people really are too kind for their own good. But I don't know where we'd be without them.

I want to see you breathe fire.

[Mrr.]

Because Queen Elizabeth III was forced to abolish the monarchy, and the royal family fled to what is now the Britannian homeland. You may know it as America.

Enemy forces used to surrender just seeing Father on the battlefield. He was practically a legend.

[Very much past tense, but it's Fine. This is Fine.]
