finch_ooc | MEME: Two Truths & A Lie

Two Truths & A Lie

It's important to know your classmates, right? Well, somebody thinks so because the students of Finchwood Academy have decided to play two truths and a lie over their journals to kill some time!

HOW THIS WORKS

Comment with your character's name in the header.

In-character, list two truths and one lie about your character in a second comment! See example.

Other characters will read these statements and try to pick out the lie. They can ask questions to try to make better guesses or take a shot in the dark.

If your character's lie is guessed, you're welcome to reply under your name again and do another set.

If your character wants to tease a friend, start some rumors, or otherwise sow mischief, you can also list two truths and a lie under someone else's name. These comments will work the same way as the others but may or may not be appreciated. See example.

Please note that we aren't playing this as a drinking game or a truth serum or anything like that. This is just an ice-breaker game! While there's nothing to stop your kiddos from lying when answering questions, we'd prefer that the initial two truths actually reflect something true about the character. Mostly because we're nosy but also because it makes things more fun!

This applies to the mischievous sorts that choose to reply under someone else's name. Humor us. ♥ If you don't know another character well enough to be able to do this, you probably shouldn't be doing it.

We're fully expecting for this to turn into a shitpost full of tangents and random conversations. So feel free! This is to help you find your character's voice, after all.

This meme is non-canon and none of the conversations held here will have happened in-game. This meme is open to all characters that are currently held, even if the mods haven't received applications or the character hasn't been excepted yet.

how many ranks are there? like if you compete do you get a rank or do you have to be the best 100 or better

It's a top 100 thing, based on category, age group, etc.

the potato thing is waaay too specific to not be true so I guess that's the lie then

It was a really good potato clock I swear someone tampered with it just so I wouldn't win!!! Middle schoolers are ruthless!!! But you're right. I was pulled from gymnastics before Nationals :(

that's probs fine cause you can't be a gymnast if you're over like 22 anyway and now you'll be able to go to college and shit

[...] just like maybe not for potato clock science

Aly Raisman was 22 at the 2016 Olympics as captain. She's expected to be captain in 2020, too. Oksana Chusovitina was ranked #1 in vault in 2016 at age 41. A lot are 17-25 and there are college gymnastics teams which is probably the only way I'm going to college. I'm not giving up on gymnastics just because my parents couldn't commit to it back in the day day.

And definitely not because potato clocks are so boring. I'd rather do experimental research! Probably in social sciences, like psychology? People are so fascinating! Brain studies alone can be done, like, forever and we'd still barely scratch the surface of understanding how the brain works.

okay well that all sounds super boring but scout wants us to be nicer to each other so i'm not allowed to say that anymore

How can you find competitive anything boring?? Also I don't care if you're not nice? Like it's no skin off my nose or whatever that saying is. You do you, girl. Have at it be rude if you want to. I don't know what you're into but I'm also not gonna judge you for it!! We all find different things interesting!!

oh but it fucks him up when we call stuff boring probs because he himself is boring

all the acting awards are political not competitive. you bet i could win an oscar but if I don't it's cause some white bitch got it for the ninth year in a row

Huh. That seems like a silly thing to get worked up over. But ok, I will not call things boring even if I find them boring!

The Oscars are kind of like the worst fucking offenders of that aren't they? It's so stupid. Politics are so frustrating - all kinds of politicing! If I had any sway over it I'd vote for you to get an Oscar :(
