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!! :****

C'mon, it's not so bad to kick it off for yourself, too.

[strictdiscipline]

[ no!! no fun allowed!! employing stall tactic #1... ]

I wouldn't know where to start.

[twinpeak]

[ No! No stalling!! ]

Anywhere! It's fun when you have something that sounds unbelievable, but then you can add in—I don't know, blonde isn't your real hair color.

[strictdiscipline]

But it is my real hair color.

[LOOK SHE'S ALREADY GARBAGE AT THIS. But fine, okay, she'll make a sad stab at this, give her a moment while she ponders and thinks.]

I never had long hair as a child, my favorite color is blue, and I've only ever met one of my relatives outside of my parents.

[ Grats Riza, you did it. After brightening up for a moment, Dipper makes a genuine effort to puzzle this one out. The mundane ones are always the hardest... ]

... Is it that last one?

[strictdiscipline]

[She smiles faintly, shakes her head.]

That one's true.

[Sadly.]

[twinpeak]

—Wow, really? Yikes. ... Okay, then the second! You don't seem like a blue type of person to me.

[strictdiscipline]

Neither of my parents got along with their families.

[For reasons that were never fully explained to her. The blue comment has her raising an eyebrow though.]

Why don't I seem like a 'blue type of person' to you?

[twinpeak]

[ Ohhh. Huh. Bit of a mood killer that topic is, though, so Dipper simply files that one away with a short nod. Moving swiftly on— ]

It's all instinct, Riza. ... Or wildly making things up because I don't actually know? Neither one of those are wrong.

[strictdiscipline]

[All topics relating to her family and history are moodkillers, tbh.]

You're right though, blue isn't my favorite color. Purple is.

[twinpeak]

Ah-ha, got it! On my second try, but that's good enough for me.

[strictdiscipline]

[Dipper, you only get three tries......]

I believe it's your turn now. Or my turn to guess.

[Whichever.]
