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!

There aren't many free pages in there at the moment... do be careful, those markers tend to bleed.

[virtually everything in yusuke's sketchbook is portraits: there's the one of shuichi he saw before, as well as ones of akira, tatsuya, sudoh (there's about three just of sudoh, including one of him sleeping), allen, kotomine... some quicker sketches of other people, most likely done on the fly--sara, sonia, rin, yuri, elizabeth, zen. there's a prototype mural design for the one before that had the phantom thieves design with the calling card on it. and a page with a still-life of various flowers in the greenhouse.

and finally, there's a mural design near the back that might catch akechi's eye. it's a series of ostentatious, wild-looking figures that akechi may quickly recognize as everyone's awakened personas in intimidating poses: anat and hecate at the forefront, flanked by mercurius, kamu susano-o, and seiten taisei, prometheus and astarte hovering above them. satanael stands proudly in the background behind them, dominating the image... and there, next to him, is robin hood. it looks kind of like it should be on the cover of a manga or a video game.]

[counterfaith]

[ it's okay, he's hug now. soothing back pats ]

. . . It is difficult, when we are separated from our loved ones. . .

[ softly ]

But, he is still watching you, you know? From Heaven, that is - although you cannot speak to him, he is surely watching over you. . .

[tsunderine]

You've never played truth or dare before?

[ Not that Tohsaka's letting on that she hasn't, either... ] But, alright. Which one do you want?

[counterfaith]

I will take more precautions from this point on.

[plsbully]

I agree, even if they don't recognize as much for themselves.

[plsbully]

Dare.

[ since he's feeling Adventurous and that was brought up ]

[assent]

[ She smiles at him, but it's half like a grimace. ]

It is all right, take your time.

[ She'll just sit waiting here. ]

[starinhereye]

[glancing down, quieter]

I know he's sacrificed some of his freedom to follow our path, so I hope I'm able to truly honor that with time.

[a few beats, then shaking off the weight of that, able to look back at Sudoh]

Of course, it wouldn't have been impossible to let go of him if he wasn't so dependable.

[motorcycle_noises]

I got trapped in a shrine with a friend one day.... That night, a local serial arsonist set the place on fire. While my friend and I were trying to escape, he....

[ Rin can fill in the rest probably. ]

[flamingprick]

[Rin will wait with baited breath to see how stupid Akira looks.]

[assent]

[ Nopeeeeeeee, sorry to say she's Just As Bad with it. ]

I... am certain I do not know what you are referring to?

[motorcycle_noises]

You won't believe me no matter what I say, will you?

[artisticliberty]

[there is a new item in the art room: a cd player stereo]

This is what I received for completing bingo.

[he puts in the cd he asked for, and presses play--it's gas chamber]

[motorcycle_noises]

If you're willing to keep going, I'll pick a truth this time.

[motorcycle_noises]

Truth again.

[artisticliberty]

Truth.

[dismemberthename]

[innocently] I believe a lot of things you say. [that's a big ol no]

[counterfaith]

What hobbies do you have?

[aria_ardeinae]

You can handle trees, right? I dared Sonia to climb one, but... down is proving a greater challenge than up. [ Reyson proves to be not the pranking sort. ]

[dismemberthename]

Nah, I figured you'd pull something like that either way. [luckily, he has a lot of secrets to choose from. drinks a truth bottle.] I don't want you to ask about my name.

[fightingoverdose]

[shrugs]

You can if you want. Or if you just wanna talk like normal people, that works too. I ain't lyin' to anyone anyways.

[motorcycle_noises]

Nah... but that's part of their charm, too.

[lefthandpath]

[it's ok. he Suspects and it's fine.]

Ah... I suppose I could always cash in on the other one a bit later, if you'd rather?

[dismemberthename]

Seems fair to me.

[flamingprick]

Yeah.

[His voice cracks when he says that, but he's bringing himself around and he takes a few deep breaths before speaking again.]

Yeah, I- I know. He's gotta be.
