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. )

I know how to smarten up where it counts.

[ just don't look to the goofy goggles on his head or his mannerisms for hints on that one. Reno smirks as if he expected to be wrong about his guess, but it's mostly just because, yeah, that's relatable. ]

Smart thinking. If you stay eligible you never miss out!

[ on anything except, like, the fulfilling joy of a settled down life maybe! ]

'n yeah, you got it. Already got promoted by the time I was twenty-two. Same shit, better pay.

You must be quite good at what you do.

[A simple observation, rather than flattery— Balthier knows well what it's like to be recognized for excellence early on, though it's not always the sort of attention one wants.]

I can't presume to know how old you are now, but many would find themselves bored after doing the same thing for so long. You don't?
