we're playing two truths and a lie. if you've never played, it's a game where you say three things: two that are true, one that isn't, and everyone tries to guess which one's the lie.

if you wanna go hard mode, do it with the camera on.

[ the "camera" comes on a moment later to Reno's grinning face. ]

I'll go first!

One: I've got a license for just about anything that flies, and I'm a certified flight instructor.
Two: I've had the same job since I was twenty-two.
Three: I don't have a favorite color.

[ His poker face is immaculate; there are no tells, just his smirk and his unflinching eye contact with the camera. Good luck with your guess. ]


( this is an open post, so feel free to threadjack and play this silly game amongst yourselves. i only provide drunken party entertainment here apparently. )

[It's definitely against the rules, but Mlynar doesn't know that, so it's all good!]

Once it was laudatory stanzas to recognize fallen comrades. But these days, I mostly focus on writing about the nature I find around me.

[mercedis]

That sounds a lot more relaxing. Have you found anything particularly beautiful here?

[illumiknight]

[The knight nods, reaching out before bringing a small vase and flower into the picture.]

For one, I've become quite fond of the flowers that a fellow Chosen named Astralin has been growing around here. I've always had a soft spot for orchids.

Aside from that, there's something to be said about the rustic simplicity of this place and its people. It's just a simple village of people doing their best in unkind times- and seeing people come together like that is inspiring.

[mercedis]

They're really beautiful... I can definitely understand how they'd be inspiring.

People are pretty inspiring, too. Does that mean that one's true, then?

[illumiknight]

I'll be sure to pass on the compliments to Astralin. He'll be thrilled about it, and might even try and sell you a few.

[The knight's eyes widen as he realizes that he just gave it away. His posture becomes something of a slump, as he realizes that he's rather terrible at this game. He's far too willing to volunteer things.]

I- damn, I suppose I've given that one away. You're not wrong though, it is true. Even old soldiers can write poetry.
