VIDEO. UN: LOKI

[selfimage]

[ the sound of the wind storm hollows dully against the cave walls. Loki's squidge, Bacon, can half be seen crawling in the confines of his tacky green jacket and over his knee from where he sits, sometimes ducking and squeaking when a particularly large gust hits. to keep it from screaming, Loki offers his fingers absently, which the little squidge pulls on with its pudgy arms before ducking low again. ]

Hello there, it seems like we'll be waiting this out for some time considering the weather-type circumstances. While we're all rotting away, etcetera etcetera, I thought we could amuse ourselves with a game. A little bit of team bonding funtimes, so to say. [ he twists a dark nailed hand in the air, gesturing. ]

Soo—oo ... it's called Two Truths and a Lie. How do you play? Glad you asked, it's simple! Give two true statements about yourself and add a lie to the mix, shake it up then toss it out there and see if your team members know you well enough to spot the lie.

Usually this is done with copious amounts of alcohol, but we're lacking at the moment. [ pause. ] But—ah—you could always enjoy the satisfaction of being right. It's not like we're doing much else.

NOTE | Feel free to threadjack if that's your thing!! :****

You look like the kinda fella who's definitely fought a dragon.

[ Straight outta those old fantasy movies. ]

[strikingtwice]

More than one. I can't say it's something I'd recommend really although I did have a good friend who enjoyed it. Maybe a little too much.

[flashbanging]

A little too much, eh? What d'you mean by that?

[ Sounds like a good yarn. ]

[strikingtwice]

Well... [His face might be turning a little pinker, but he's hoping the warmth is just his own imagination.]

There's enjoying fighting dragons and then there's enjoying fighting dragons...

[ He doesn't quite cotton on at first, but the blush and the peculiar emphasis make Meallan's context pretty easy to put together. McCree raises an eyebrow. ]

Well, now. Ain't that cute.

[strikingtwice]

Cute isn't exactly what I thought at the time, after learning that something he was shouting basically translated to "I will bring myself pleasure while thinking of this with great respect later".

While it was breathing fire at us.

[ Lord Jesus. He chokes a little on the spit in his throat, partly from shock, partly from laughter. ]

You ran with an interestin' crew, Meallan. Gotta respect the honesty, at least.

[ At LEAST. ]

[strikingtwice]

That's one word for it. [He agrees wryly.] But he's a good man, and he's good to work with as well.

I wish he and some of the others were here.

[flashbanging]

I got a couple of my people here with me, and I'm glad for'em. Wish we weren't stuck, mind. But it's nice to have folks around that know somethin' of you.

[ He smiles, gentle. ]

But hey. You got a bunch of people who wanna know you while you wait. That's somethin', right?
