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!! :****

Maybe it depends on the person? I find the lie harder to make, but that's more because I imagine much of my life would seem made up to some. When the farfetched things are true the lies seem more mundane and obvious.

I suppose so. Everything we say is likely to sound far fetched to someone hear, under the circumstances. You may as well make the lies as outlandish as everything else.

So, something like... [Meallan pauses, trying to think of something outlandish that also isn't obviously a lie.]

I've punched a god?

[It... still sounds too outlandish to him.]

[It does sound outlandish, yes, but considering some of the things he's heard here...]

Something like that, yes.
