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!! :****

And what happens when you encounter someone who can detect your lies? Does the amusement remain?

[Not that he's sure he can detect lies through the jewelry. But he isn't going to say as much.]

I suppose it'd be somewhat disappointing, but it's not a matter for concern. It's a game after all-- I'm hardly going to be talking about anything that matters.

[Ne's not one for giving too much of himself away, after all. At least not the parts of himself that he'd want to keep concealed.]

Then there is hardly a point to it all to begin with.

[There's an audible sigh out of his nose.]

I suspect not everyone is as wise.

I suspect the point is to ward off crippling boredom.

[and it has worked, to some degree, though he can certainly think of more entertaining ways to pass the time...]

As for those who choose to speak too freely, more fool them.

Indeed.

[That's why he's here, anyway. Find the fools, and all that.]

So go have fun. Who knows. Perhaps you'll learn something interesting.

[If learning about what lies in the hearts of others is what interests you. For himself, he couldn't care less (this place is far from home from Mother from all of it and therefore means nothing at all), but he is bored.]
