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!

Again, is this another way for you to complain?

[artisticliberty]

[a tad possessive, are we?

yusuke is more than willing to linger like that until akira decides to move away. nevertheless, he lifts his head enough to nod and reply, his voice scratchy like he's been fighting off tears (a battle he lost for a bit there)]

I will be alright. Thank you.

[counterfaith]

It was a joke. Anyway, it's your turn to choose for me.

[afailedmurder]

...I"d rather not fight with you.

[artisticliberty]

Yes, I can.

[gonna go over to sudoh and tatsuya and kiss them on the cheek 'w']

[artisticliberty]

I would hear what you have to say, nevertheless. We can go somewhere more private if you prefer.

[ His master seduction plan may or may not consist of flipping her off and then punching her in the nose. ]

[pecker]

I-I see... but by who?

[plsbully]

Hmm. Truth.

Would it make you happy, to save me? Or do you feel it is an obligation?

[artisticliberty]

I do not wish to fight with you either. But that does not tell me what you want.

[counterfaith]

. . . . I don't see why an obligation can't make me happy, but. . . it would make me happy, yes.

[plsbully]

It's the framing of it -- doing it "because you must", or doing it "because you wish to".

[pecker]

... You took the simple guess, I see. That's fine, I know I can't draw!

[Now her purple pencil fills in exactly one half of the blobby creature.]

See, um, it's Vanilla-san!

But this story can have a bird too, that's a good place to start. Once upon a time in Vanilla-san's secret history, he met with a...

[Her hand plays across the colors, until she selects one]

Blue bird. We'll make her a blue jay.

[She draws a line for one wing, ending in a point, and then draws the other wing right from that. This blue jay is basically an overly long V shape.]

[cluelesscavewoman]

That sounds dangerous.

[cluelesscavewoman]

Akechi-dono. He said that one as mindless as I is not worth being polite to...

[counterfaith]

It's because I wish to.

[ a pause, and his tone is wry ]

. . . There was never a point where it could have possibly been "because I must". If anything, it's always only been because I am so selfish. This, too. . . is part of my dream.

[plsbully]

[ he laughs. ]

You cannot be saying it is part of your dream to find salvation for me. Unless you simply mean -- it is part of your broader plans -- to save "everyone".

[counterfaith]

You are a particularly unique individual, in that even the broader plan would not manage to save you. So, uniquely and individually, it is part of my dream that you would find salvation, and happiness.

[plsbully]

Your greed is admirable, as always. But it is a shame you waste these very particular efforts on such a foolish endeavor.

[counterfaith]

[ shifts a little, for the first time. how come depowering means wrist pains ]

I don't think it's a waste of time, though.

[artisticliberty]

Naturally, but the attempt was decent. The structure of the face itself is off; it lacks the proper depth of shadow that real heads possess. You may also want to increase shading on the hair. I do like the sparkles, however.

[pecker]

[She blinks. She actually wasn't suspecting it to be someone around here. What is the gossip!!]

Well, that seems harsh...

[plsbully]

That simply means you are blind to it.

[counterfaith]

And I say the same to you, on that front.

[assent]

Um yes... like the last one before we continue on to ask other people?

[ Maybe he'll get it now. ]
