Trash Squad Day 5 - TRUTH OR DARE

[chinhotta]

Mornin' sweethearts! Come on down to the cafeteria!

[ Today the cafeteria looks different again, most of the tables cleared out and the space full of pillows, blankets, and love sacs of various sizes. Around the time everyone gets there, Vanilla pops up in the front of the room.. ]

Do you know what one of the most important things in a relationship is? Honesty! Do you know what some others are? Trust! Self-confidence! Communication! A sense of adventure! Sexual compatibility!

...What was I talking about? Oh, right! Today's event is truth or dare! You know how it works! Find someone and ask them if they want a truth or a dare! If they pick truth, ask them any question and they have to tell the truth. If they pick dare, tell them do do anything and they have to do it. Then it's their turn. Try to ask around!

And... I've got something special for you!

[ Vanilla pulls a sheet off a table to reveal a bunch of tiny plastic bottles, each about the size to hold one sip of liquid. ]

The blue ones are Vanilla's Famous Vanilla-Flavored One-Shot Truth Serum! One truthful statement guaranteed! The red ones are Sarsaparilla's Tequillas! Pure liquid courage - give yourself the extra kick you need to get out of your comfort zone!

...You don't have to drink these if you trust each other and are confident in yourself, but in the spirit of honesty in our relationship, I'm willing to make a trade. If all these shots are drunk by nighttime, I'll give you proof the people eliminated and disqualified are safe!

[ The truth serum, as you would expect, makes you tell the truth. The "tequillas" aren't actually alcoholic, but they do make you feel much braver. Both generally only last the length of one answer/dare, but some of them might last a little longer... chinchillas don't practice good quality control. ]

—Oh, by the way! Your scores are displayed in your tablets now! They don't include your second dates yet, but we'll keep them updated!

Such as?

[artisticliberty]

Very well, I will accept your challenge. Shall we sit?

[he goes over to a love sac with his sketchbook and opens it, at the ready]

[artisticliberty]

[he is already whipping out his sketchbook]

I will request the right to postpone the task until after I have completed a design, but rest assured that I will do it.

[fightingoverdose]

Aw, I didn't know there was a joy quota. Dare, then, since I'm sure you got plans for my time in fun exile.

[artisticliberty]

[and fucking up shadows]

So I've come to learn. But please, do not let me derail the conversation.

[artisticliberty]

I do. Do you mean others I knew before arriving, or the people I've come to know now?

[artisticliberty]

That is the expectation.

[rude]

Do not worry, I will not insult you for your lack of skill--just make an effort.

[cluelesscavewoman]

Before. I know Akira and Ichigo-dono and some of the others.

[assent]

I see. [ In a way she can relate to that, being born into a life and having nothing to compare it to. ] Do you ever regret it...? Though I suppose as you are truly devoted that is not likely...

[artisticliberty]

You knew Akira before? Then does that mean you were in the previous game?

[assent]

[ Her mouth opens slightly, like she's about to ask something else but instead she holds onto him a bit tighter, all the more aware that they should probably get her out of the tree before asking him a million questions.

Sorry Reyson... for that.

When he lands down on the floor, gracefully and carefully, she lifts her head again to ask: ]

Have you always been like this?

[counterfaith]

. . . If I were to regret it, then that would be spitting in the face of everyone who has had a hand in raising me.

[ not to say that he doesn't regret a lot of the things that happened, in particular the events that led to the conclusion, but he couldn't imagine it any other way; it was impossible for anything else to happen. his fate was sealed the moment he was born. ]

[counterfaith]

Do you have another question to give me, then?

[counterfaith]

Mmm. . . I suppose I'll pick truth?

[assent]

He did...? I suppose I can see him planning it out well enough that he had lines rather than a mix of boxes completed. [ She looks thoughtful, thinking of how long it took her to get one bingo because she wasn't specific with hers. It was worth it though, for the prizes she got for it.

Also she still has no idea Akechi is the one Shuichi was talking about when he mentioned his boyfriend or this would have gone a little differently. Alas. ]

[assent]

It may have been... yet, I presume that is what happens when we consume the solutions they gave us for this. I want a method to talk to people who were eliminated too, however...

[ She indicates to the bottle he'd drank from. ] It is rather potent, no?

[assent]

[ I mean to be fair... She's baked before now, so she could do that again. ]

In that case I shall do my best. Is it all right with you if I report back later? I would not wish to miss the event, but I will definitely give it my all.

[assent]

...That is true.

[ Thankfully she doesn't have that issue, hers is more rooted in what it means to have a duty to her country as well. But... There is someone she has in mind for that, after what she said to him during bingo and his reaction it seems fitting enough. ]

I suppose we will just have to work harder to ensure they can see it for themselves too, no?

[assent]

Would it...? [ She pauses, gaze falling away from him and towards the floor. ] Perhaps so, yes.

[counterfaith]

. . . In my own eyes, at least, I am not able to afford such a thing.

By the way, truth or dare?

[assent]

[ She doesn't comment on it, partly because it's only going to open another spiral down that they don't need and also because he's already asking to continue with the game. ]

I shall do the same and ask for a truth, please.

[counterfaith]

[ come at him he's not hurting at all ]

What is your most ticklish bodypart?

[assent]

I am not certain... I was tickled for the first time during the bingo game. Therefore to my knowledge, my ribs?

[ She hasn't been tickled anywhere else??? ]

[counterfaith]

Ribs seem to be very common for people. I'll pick dare next.

[slice_of_life]

I just... wanted to know what it was like.
