✯ Ninth Session ✯ [Voice]

[byakkoyagirl]

Hey everyone, Paprika here. Word around the village is that we got new people coming in here again. Sorry to everyone who got roped into this crazy place - if you don't think it suits your needs that is. This place can be really insane sometimes, but remember: you aren't alone here. We all deal with the same scientists and helping each other out isn't a crime and you shouldn't feel bad reaching out for help either!

If anyone has anything they want to discuss, I'll be always available so long as I am around this place! I'm a trained and liscensed psychologist back home and things will always be kept private between us. I promise I'm not a big gossiper.

But, enough of that! I think a game would be fun to play. To break the ice and whatnot. So, lets play Two Truths and a Lie. You introduce yourself and then make three statements. One of them has to be a lie and the other two are truth things. The person needs to guess what is the lie and what are the truthes. You can tell a lot about someone from the things they say and the things they don't say, so it could be fun. I definitely encourage the new people to play along with me. Look I'll go first.

Lets see...

My name is Paprika.

I have saved the world from the brink of doom!
I have been in Luceti for over a year so far.
I once ate 10 hotdogs under five minutes.

Oh and you should tell me why you think the statement is a lie too, just for added fun!

Oh, wow! You ate ten hotdogs in under five minutes!? That's more than two hotdogs a minute! [Yup, he's impressed and forgot one of these things are suppose to be a lie.]

[herotypical]

[ because this won't be awkward. ]

I'll pick lie the third. No one would ever want to eat that many hot dogs ever.

[A light chuckle. Oh Vash.]

You just need to eat two at the same time, along with washing it down with a glass of water. It's very tiring.

[goldenglasses]

Wow, you must have a big mouth to fit TWO hotdogs in it!

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

That isn't true! People in hotdog eating contests would eat that much and more.

[...] But, that's irrelevant because you're right.

[herotypical]

I'm convinced that the people in hotdog eating contests are aliens. And so far? No proof to prove otherwise.

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

I never tried stretching my mouth out, but I bet I could do it if I wanted to.

[And nope, she's not even going to say whether it's true or not. He didn't ask if it was!]

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

Very hungry aliens, craving beef dogs on bread holders, coming to eat all our food supply and end life as we know it.

[herotypical]

That's exactly what I'm talking about. [ ... ] Wait. Am I supposed to be doing the two lies and a truth thing now, too? In return?

[goldenglasses]

Can you train your mouth to be bigger? Or even your cheeks! You got to hold that food somewhere while you chew, right?

[fabrecation]

[... Yup, this won't be awkward.]

The... third one?

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

I'm sure someone can. There are contests back where I come from, just to see who can eat the most in a certain time.

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

Yeah, now it's your turn. We can take turns and everything!

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

Is that really the most unbelievable of them all?

[A lax sigh.]

Yeah, you're right.

What a wonderful way of looking at things! I'll have to keep it in mind, Paprika. Thank you!

...Oh, sorry, I nearly forgot! Um, I think the lie is that you've been in Luceti for a year. That would he horrible...

And my name is Medli. I play music on the harp, I deliver mail across the Great Sea, and I'm studying to be an attendant!

[herotypical]

Hmm. Alright.

[ she thinks about it. ]

I love ice shows in a non-ironic way. I've met Dracula. My middle name is Louise.

[goldenglasses]

I think we had some around Gunsmoke too, but they were always too expensive for me to enter. [And you know, too much publicity.] They never had pretty girls in them though!

[fabrecation]

I just think you know that if you don't chew or eat your food slowly, you'll get a stomachache. Everyone should know that!

[ voice ]

[repudiate]

Third's a lie. [ deadpan as ever. ] With something like this, people would usually add at least one extreme extraordinairy true fact about themselves along with an extreme but somewhat ordinairy false fact about themselves to make believe believe the former true one is actually the false one, right?

... That, and this place seems to have a thing for pulling in people who are involved with world saving events, so it isn't too ridiculous.

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

Oh really? That's too bad, I'm sure you would like it. It's a lot of fun to watch. They claim girls can't eat as much, but I bet they're wrong.

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

[Hm...]

Well, I know you're something of a vampire hunter, so I'm going to say the Dracula thing is true. Which leaves behind the two others...

I'll go with the lie being the ice shows. They're really too silly to take seriously - sort of like a circus.

[herotypical]

Sorry. I love'em. Love everything about them. Which makes my middle name actually Annie--uhm, Anne. I mean. It's Anne. Buffy Anne Summers.

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

Yeah that does sound about right. Pretty simple concept right there. Simple as zipping up a jacket when you get cold!

But, eating contests are super popular back home and they manage to do it without throwing up.

[goldenglasses]

I'd say! You can eat ten hotdogs in under five minutes!

[ voice ]

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

Depends on what you define as extreme. Where I come from, saving the world would be a pretty big extreme, but here it seems so commonplace. On the other hand, eating hotdogs that quickly may not seem so strange and bizarre. At least not compared the other choices I gave you.

It doesn't change that you're right though.
