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 fail to see the point of this.

[electroburst]

It'd be weird if you did, since there isn't one. Just play the game, man.

[finisaeternam]

How am I to know which of your statements is a lie? I do not know you and I do not wish to.

[And yet he replied.]

[electroburst]

Use your intuition! Or, y'know, just take a wild guess.

[ found the singular "if you've never played before" person he put that disclaimer out for. ]

[finisaeternam]

[A long pause, then...]

...You have had the same job since you were young. That is the lie.

[electroburst]

[ fuck ]

Okaaay, now show your work. Where'd you get that idea from?

[finisaeternam]

It is the only thing you said that was unremarkable.

[electroburst]

I love how me havin' the same job for most of my life is less remarkable than not having a favorite color. You must not think much of corporate bullshit.

[finisaeternam]

Most people have the same job their entire life.

[You are born into a role or inherit a business and you do it. The people who break free from that cycle are rare. That's just how the world works.]

[electroburst]

I dunno the statistics on that, so maybe you're right. I've had a couple people say I don't look the type for all that which I took as a compliment, personally.

[ "you look like a flighty bitch with commitment issues"? enchante. ]

So what about you? You wanna throw some out there for us to guess?

[finisaeternam]

[Another, longer pause.]

...

I am a ruler.

I have been to the stars.

I can command fire.

[electroburst]

The first one. Stars are overrated and fire materia's a dime a dozen. Unless that's the joke and you can't actually get your hands on any... full disclosure, I'm gonna laugh at you if that's the case.

[finisaeternam]

Incorrect.

I am the ruler of Ganath Haros.

...I have never heard of materia.
