Now that we've all had time to settle in, why don't we play a game? It's simple enough: you give two truths about yourself and one lie, and we all have a fun time guessing which is which. And if you already know the answers to someone's, there's no need to spill the true answer for all to see. Let's keep it as fair as we can, shall well?


I'll go first:

- I was 'hired' by my current employer after I offered a possibility to a branch of it that led them to invest millions of credits into something that never gave any returns
- It's very likely that I am currently dead wherever I came from after I challenged a very special woman to kill me
- The last planet I was on before this one was Thalassa, a world of oceans -- what was supposed to be a lovely vacation turned far more sinister when one of the locals unleashed an unknown entity from the ruins of an ancient, fallen starship from the fleet known as the Xianzhou

Now feel free to guess amongst yourselves, friends, and don't forget to give your own three options!

Whoa

Okay anyways. You said three things? Here we go!

1. I have an older brother who I take care of back home, we grew up on the streets of Belobog together, he's not business-inclined like me though!
2. I got in the merchant business when a man pulled me aside when I was 15 and gave me 50 credits out of the goodness of his heart, which I then turned into a profit the very same day!
3. I can't stand sausages and if you give me one I will simply straight up puke

[ignoreher]

Third.

[ it's too straightforward....... ]

[lovebombing]

🎊

You got it! You're good at this!

[ignoreher]

[ ... ]

You're just too obvious about it. What does your brother do?

[lovebombing]

Oh I don't have one

[ignoreher]

Mister Koski, what's your current location?

[lovebombing]

Oh I messed it up!

I gave two lies and a truth! Hehe. Whoops

[stonehearts]

Really? It's been a while since I've met any other artificial lifeforms save for Intellitrons, and they aren't exactly AI.

[stonehearts]

That one is very much true, I'm afraid. She was quite nice and apologetic about it, all things considered. I really pushed her to her limit.

[stonehearts]

It's an icebreaker! You learn something about someone, and they learn something about you

Are you trying to suggest you'd lie?

[stonehearts]

( DING! and she gets 2000 kryptos for her effort )

Right on the money

No, I just can't imagine it'd be easy to do anything as a giant clam

[stonehearts]

I'll have you know I went to a lot of trouble to die

1/2

[stonehearts]

( ... )

[stonehearts]

( so it's like that, huh )

Someone very recently told me that there is, in spite of everything. Maybe you just need to look for the answer a little closer to home

[wheft]

So you forced her hand... Kind of surprised that she's nice about it, tbh.

Then... maybe the first one? I'm probably too biased for the third one, though. I lived near the ocean and even worked as a sailor for a long while, so I'm banking a lot on that.

[ unleashing dangerous entities upon the cityfolk is also commonplaces where she's from, so... ]

[hitokiller]

oh, yeah?
how so

[fastpaced]

woah
u sure u want every1 to know about that??

but hey ur not in jail so i guess it worked out

[fastpaced]

hey
dont say things like that!
i dont know u yet but im glad ur alive now
or else i wouldnt have the chance

[stonehearts]

Then how about the first?

Huh, can't say I could see a vacation of my own ending early because of assassin. Shame it happened to you

[stonehearts]

( is ratio going to chew him out for giving him away again? ah well-- )

That's the one! Doctor Veritas Ratio himself, though I suppose the introduction falls flat here where no one is familiar with the name

[ignoreher]

[ haha. ]

He's quite the important man, and kind to boot! He offered to help me with my educational pursuits since I'm a little slow in keeping up with everyone else.
How do you know each other?

[kubricks]

No the first one is also true. I recently changed day jobs.

It's okay. These things happen. Better I be around to deal with that sort of thing than not.

[newphew]

Everyone lies.

[ damn, edgelord over here ]

And theres no ice here. so what does this game have to do withbreaking it?

[eyescar]

i was found not guilty?

[eyescar]

in spite of everything huh
i'll keep looking i guess
