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.

» RESPONSES: Post for each of your characters here.

Three sounds too specific to be a lie

Two sounds too boring to be true.

How does not drinking soda make me boring?

knockyouout

it's like, if you've had it before and didn't like it, whatever. if you literally have never once tried it that's a choice you made and it makes you boring

It wasn't an active choice until later in life, really and it's still not very active. I just don't choose it over other things. I don't see how that is boring. Drink preferences don't change someone's personality.

Means you're not very curious and you're fine with other people making choices for you, at the very least.

Is that what that means? Because I'm fine not drinking something with zero nutritional benefit that I never had to miss because my parents never had it in the house suddenly makes me incapable of making my own decisions or like I'll just roll over and allow other people to make decisions for me?

I'm not following your logic.

$dallaslevy: <lj user="ollinsong"> (:\ 15)$

I'm not saying there's any good reason to drink soda. I'm just saying that it's weird not to try something that's so ubiquitous at least once to see what it's like. And those are the only reasons I can think of that you wouldn't.

That's fine, I'm fine being weird. I just don't see how that affects my decision making abilities.

Like, I might have tried it but y'all just making me want to double down on not drinking it.

Weird, incurious, and lacking in autonomy, since you don't seem to have any real reason. But you do you.

They might. All those bubbles.

Mmm, makes you bubbly? Maybe I should try it. I've heard I'm boring without soda.

Don’t get too wild. Start with diet sprite or something.

there is nothing wrong with diet sprite

No. It’s a good starter soda.

Less bubbly?

Just bubbles. Caffeine and sugar might be too much, too soon.

Don't tell her about Sprite Cherry. I'm not sure she could handle it.

Oh shit does the movie theater in town have one of those make your own soda machines yet?

Well now that can't be true. Cherry flavored?? You're lying. That's way too outrageous.

It’s a lot of zest at once

deciding you're done trying new things at 17 does though

Again, logic. Having never had soda is a definitive way of knowing someone is indesicive and incapable of trying new things.

The more you know.

yeah because if you were willing to try new things you might have done it once by now? either you just do the same thing every day or you look at soda and you're like "That Is Not For Me" without ever having tried it

Maybe I just know myself well enough. Or more likely I focus on different things. Soda just isn't important to me.
