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.

1. I've met the ruler of hell.
2. I have attended exactly one orgy.
3. I can shoot fire out of my eyes.

Is it the last one? Although that's super cool if it's true.

[doiteventually]

Bzzzt. I totally can.

[abnormalizes]

Hot.

[She's not sorry.]

I feel like two is the obvious answer, so I'll pick one?

[doiteventually]

That's right! Even if I was that important, there IS no ruler of hell, just like there's no ruler of Earth.

[abnormalizes]

Makes sense! Even my home is headed by an organization, not a person.

[doiteventually]

The whole idea of "The Devil" is centuries out of date. Humans can't go to hell, so they come up with all kinds of wrong ideas about it based on what little information they can get.

[abnormalizes]

We're really good at speculating about stuff we don't know and coming up with all kinds of bullshit. It's one of our talents as a species, I think.

[doiteventually]

No joke, it's something I admire about humans! Your boundless creativity. You can come up with amazing ideas based on almost nothing. It makes me jealous.

[abnormalizes]

Do demons not do that kind of thing?

[doiteventually]

Some have tried. We're generally awful at artistic expression. I think it's something about the human soul.

[abnormalizes]

Huh. Kind of wish I put more time into creative hobbies, now.

[at_heart]

Three
Tragically
Because the first orgy wasn't worth a repeat experience

[doiteventually]

I knew that was a good one to put on there. No, I really can do that.

[at_heart]

I mean it sounds awesome

One then?

[ He's so far sticking with his 'why would you go back after the first time' theory about the orgy. ]

[doiteventually]

Yup. There's no such thing as the 'ruler of hell' in the first place.

The orgy was my roommate's idea. I found the whole experience to just be kind of too much.

[at_heart]

Got it in two? Points for effort? Something

Yeah I figured
It's one of those things that sounds awesome when you're like
Sixteen?
But once you've actually been around the block a few times you're just like
Yeah that's too many elbows in one bed

[doiteventually]

Exactly. Also, even if I was dying of mana loss, two partners would be plenty. Three at the absolute most. It just feels wasteful.

[at_heart]

[ Yeah, don't mind him, he's going to be snickering for a while. ]

Wouldn't want that
