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!! :****

Jakku? It's a desert. Inner Rim, nothing but sand dunes and scrap. No one goes to Jakku.

[figureitout]

Sounds... great.

[ Not. ]

Tell me you, like, pod-raced your way out of there or something.

[forcevisions]

There are no pod-racers on Jakku.

[ Duh. It doesn't matter that he's obviously never heard of it. It's so at odds with her upbringing there that she's like where ? ?? is this coming from ? ? ? ]

[figureitout]

... right. Obviously.

[ hOW WAS HE SUPPOSED TO KNOW POD-RACING ON DESERT PLANETS IS ALL HE KNOWS OF TBH just ask mr. kill bill siren ]

So you didn't pod-race your way out of there.

[forcevisions]

Of course not. I flew off, like anybody else. [ I mean ok anybody else probably doesn't fly off in the Millennium Falcon but ok. ]

[figureitout]

[ but why would you leave that out it's the Millenium Falcon why would you deny him this chance for a heart attack ]

Of course. So... you just, you know, flew off. Into space. Any particular destination? Companions? Interesting... things? In your life. [ what if she's an EU story, what then, what if he doesn't remember all of those... and then he just won't know ]

[forcevisions]

... Why?

[ Her suspicion goes up to 15, and the bristling raise of her metaphorical hackles is visible in the tension of her jaw. ]

[figureitout]

Uh, because I'm pretty sure that's the life story of literally everyone here. I mean, just to recap: we've got, what, a pirate doctor, an Asgardian god, a Greek mythical hero, some superheroes and an actual jedi here, and that's maybe ten percent of us?

[ Read: everyone has interesting things going on in their lives. ]

[forcevisions]

[ She eases up, but there's no denying the persistent wariness in her face. ]

I had to return a droid to the Resistance. The First Order was after it, so we stole a freighter and escaped the planet.
