DNET VIDEO ☏ TO EVERYONE EVER ☏ WEDNESDAY

[lear]

Hullo, chums!

[ There's a chirpy redhead on your screen. She looks a little mischievous. ]

I'm not sure this is quite the purpose these were built for, but bugger it. I'm very new and I didn't get to meet half as many of you as I would have liked after the Ceremony since everyone's off being a superhero. So!

[ She holds up a white card in front of her. on it is written: ]

TWO TRUTHS AND A LIE

Classic icebreaker.

[ Or so the internet tells her. ]

Here's how it works. You state two facts about yourself and a lie, in any order, innocuous as you like, and everyone has to see if they can separate the truth from the lies. Good practice for all that covert ops stuff.

I'll start!

My favourite food is blue steak, I'm a chess grandmaster, and I speak Mandarin Chinese.

[ Sense Motive check of DC18 to pick the second fact as the lie. ]

Comments

[slay]

Hey! Apologetic here. I think I deserve some slack cut for my serious taking of accountability.

[king]

I'm just saying, I've not seen much sign of it.

[slay]

And just when I think you can't dig yourself any deeper ... There's China. [ Scowl. ] You know, when most people want to win friends, they go for compliments instead of insults.

[king]

Touchy. Who said I care to win anyone?

[slay]

I - Uh. No one, I guess. [ She deflates a little. ] I - I just thought ...

[king]

[ Oh, don't make that face. ]

Not that I'd object, if you happened to be won.

[slay]

Just really don't care either way, do ya? [ Okay, now she's being tetchy. She can't help it. She dismisses it. ] Forget it.

[king]

I don't particularly have a care what people think of me, no.

[slays]

Just as long as they're thinking of you. [ She says it like she's finishing his sentence, and not in a flattering way, either. ] How kingly.

[king]

Always good to have words put in my mouth. If you have a problem with my behaviour, Sir Summers...

[slays]

Now who's touchy?

[king]

[ Arthur, apparently, because he's disconnecting. ]
