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!

Dare.

[fuck the truth]

[motorcycle_noises]

[ Yeah that's legit. ]

I dare you to dramatically confess something really silly to the next person you talk to.

[purrtagonist]

Sure.

[sounds easy!!]

What counts as "really silly," though?

[motorcycle_noises]

Anything that sounds absurd to you personally. It doesn't have to be a lie or the truth, whichever you want, as long as it's ridiculous.

[purrtagonist]

Noted.

I'll be sure to come up with the most ridiculous confession I can.

[thumbs up]

[motorcycle_noises]

Have fun.

[purrtagonist]

Don't worry, I will.

Truth or dare?

[since they're doing this, now]

[motorcycle_noises]

[ Tatsuya flicks his zippo open and shut before responding. ]

Truth.

[purrtagonist]

[ah. an easy one for Akira]

If Yusuke and I asked you to come home with us at the end of this game, would you say yes?

[motorcycle_noises]

[ Oh god. ]

...No, I wouldn't.

[purrtagonist]

[. . . somehow, he expected that answer. and although this doesn't quite go with the rules of the game. . .]

. . . why not?

[motorcycle_noises]

[ That's okay, he'll answer anyway. ]

Because no matter how much I might want to, I can't go back. I won't bring the end of the world just because I want to be selfish.

[purrtagonist]

[that is the explanation he expected, actually. . . all things considered]

Even if we told you that we'd do everything within our power to prevent the end of the world from happening?

[motorcycle_noises]

I can't risk that. I'll... I can do everything on my end to fight that fate. If that doesn't work... It's only eighteen years, right? I can hold on that long to meet up with you again and try another way.

[purrtagonist]

But the me in eighteen years might not remember. . .

[. . . he frowns]

What about the prize everyone gets for surviving until the last round?

[would Tatsuya at least use that to come see them?]

[motorcycle_noises]

...That's honestly what I want, more than the other prizes. Even if it's just a couple of places, I'd like to be able to visit other people sometimes.

[purrtagonist]

So if you can't come back with us. . .

Then, at the very least, come visit us.

[take a vacation from your loneliness, Tatsuya!]

[motorcycle_noises]

I'd like to see you again.

[ As long as it isn't where you live. ]
