VIDEO. UN: LOKI

[ 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!! :****

[ she smiles a bit weakly, glancing away. she can sense what aradia is trying to do, and while the memory is still one that shames her, she is at least very appreciative of the other girl's efforts. ]

It did. Another man had stepped in and prevented anything from happening. I owe him a lot.

I'm glad there was a happy ending, in any case.

[ ??? This is hard. Humans are hard.

Time for a subject change, she thinks. ]


So, which one was the actual lie?
winces: (( twelve ))

Oh. [ well, luckily for aradia, olivia is at least easily distracted. ]

It was the second one. The ruler of Ylisse is actually a kind man, and he goes by the title of Exalt, not King!

Ah! That was very tricky of you. A lie by technicality... but a lie none the less! Well played.

Eheh... It is a bit sneaky, isn't it... Oh — I hope it wasn't too sneaky! This is my first time playing...

I think the point is to be sneaky! So I don't think there is too much.
winces: (( five ))

Oh, phew! That's a relief... I would hate to be disqualified after just starting!

I am happy to tell you that you are still in the running!

[ Thumbs up, Olivia! ]

--oh, yes! And thank you for playing with me. This was a much-needed diversion, I think.
winces: (( ten ))

Oh, I'm glad...! It's been a very fun game. It was nice of Loki to let us all relax like this.
