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. )

yeah, technically you don't. or maybe i'm not an instructor! really makes you think, doesn't it? soooo, which one's your guess?

your business is my business, so that makes flowers my business. easy peasy.

so wait, you're telling me someone seriously dragged you to a coliseum?! don't tell me you went by yourself.

[inemeraldfaith]

Uhm. Every time I ask questions, I feel like I'm even less certain than I was before. So maybe the first one? Let's go with the first one.

Hm. My business is your business, is it? [She can hazard a guess as to why.]

That said, I didn't say someone dragged me to a coliseum. And I could definitely go to one by myself if I had to. I was able to travel between the sectors on my own. Coliseums aren't much worse than that.

[electroburst]

gotta learn to trust that gut! it was the second one.

yep. wouldn't be much of a guardian if it wasn't.

[ not much of a "guardian" anyway, considering... y'know... but he's getting along just fine pretending that's not a thing! so! don't! think about it! ]

they're a little bit worse than that! tell me you didn't go to the one in wall market. like, i mean, it was the gold saucer at least. right?

[inemeraldfaith]

Darn! You made me second guess myself! I'll get you next time! [Gadget.]

I didn't know you knew much about coliseums, but I guess the Turks know all and see all. You wouldn't be doing a good job if you didn't know what the Midgar Underground was up to.

It actually was the Wall Market one, though. Cloud and I had to go for a very important reason. I don't know that I'd go again, but since we were there, winning just seemed like a good goal to have in mind.

[electroburst]

you wanna go another round, just say the word.

cloud? god dammit, i'm gonna kick his ass so bad. i don't know how many times i have to tell you to stay away from wall market.

you BETTER have won though. how many rounds?

[inemeraldfaith]

I'll play again! Let's go again!

I'm actually the one who took Cloud. Again, it was for something really important! It was technically three rounds, but they gave us an extra because we did really good.

Naturally, we won.

[electroburst]

ok, gimme a sec.

atta girl. if you're gonna do everything you're not supposed to do, at least kick ass at it. and that's fine, i'm still gonna kick his ass. in a nice way, honest.

[ how do nicely— shush. anyway, his two truths and a lie appear a couple minutes later: ]

1. i'm a natural redhead.
2. i'm allergic to chocobos.
3. i can't feel anything in most of my right hand.

[inemeraldfaith]

Please kick his ass very gently.

[He said it first. It's fine for her to repeat it.]

I actually already believe your hair is natural, so it's probably not that one. And I wouldn't be surprised if your work caused you some hand injuries at some point, so I'm going to guess that you're not actually allergic to chocobos.

I don't really see why the Turks would have use for a chocobo anyway, actually.
