[ back in Zombieland, when things got incredibly boring or incredibly scary, Wichita and Little Rock played the same few games to keep themselves occupied or distracted, and right now she's ( not only fiercely missing her sister, but ) in the mood for some distraction from the scary. and getting a little fuzzy on cheap cooking wine isn't cutting it today. so she flicks on her network device, clears her throat, and starts to ramble. ]

I've got three games I'm gonna throw out there, and somebody better play or I'll completely lose faith in this ship being able to get over all the bullshit that goes on around here. [ says the girl that's holding onto a notebook of drawings that she has no right to keep, but well who the hell asked you ]

Okay.

Game one!
Would you rather: only speak in questions, or only be able to yell everything you say?

Game two!
Two Truths and One Lie:
1) I've never blacked out from alcohol or whatever the hell else.
2) I can name almost any film just by a single quote.
3) I don't believe in love.

Game three!

--Here's the big one, people.

Truth or Dare.

[ she's nodding really big here, eyes wide, because oh yeah she knows how offering to play Truth or Dare with some of these people is like offering to completely ruin your own life, willingly, but well. ]

And nobody give me any of that "those are kid games" crap. You can either play or not play, but I gotta say, if you don't play, you're a goober. And I'll call you that. I will call you a goober. [ her mock-serious expression breaks a little so she can give the camera an honest(ish) smile, letting them know it's ridiculous, but godfreakingdamnit she needs ridiculous right now. she needs it. and she's pretty sure some of you sticks-in-the-mud need it to. ] Game on, Tranquility.

Goober!

The second game sounds a little less risky than the third. Let's do it.

I'm guessing the third one is the lie.

Well done, Broadway.

Your turn.

[Why not, its a break from note copying.]

Are those our only options?

I have never had an inappropriate moment in a library.
I have never been able to finish more than one yard of ale.
I actually like haggis.

Truth.

[cons]

[ a little confused, but then- oh! he's playing all three! fun. ]

Yes, those are the only options. That's the point of the game. And you can't go "oh but what if-?", it's one or the other, bam.

-- Hm. You don't look like much of a drinker. Not that I'm into stereotyping people, but. I'm gonna go with the second one.

What's the answer to Game Two? [ trollolol ]

voice

[amethysts]

[Listening. Being good. This is still fine, right? Try not to be so fucking loud so you don't die.]

One: yelling. Obvious.

Come on, it's three. Liiie.

My two and a lie are that I used to have a cat, I stabbed a guy, and I built my first computer when I was nine.

Dare.

voice

[cons]

Really? I think yelling would get really annoying after a while. The questions option at least makes you sound clever? Maybe? Or just really confused all the time? [ kekeke she's just being a tool. moving on-]

Yeah, yeah. I think I'm kinda glad people aren't assuming I'm a complete alchie, that's kinda nice.

Hm. I'm gonna go with - number one. That one's boring.

I dare you to go to the Oxygen Garden and sing, at the top of your lungs, the chorus of your favorite classic diva song. I think I can safely assume, unless you're from the future or the past or whatever, you know who the divas are and which songs I mean. And do it with your comm on so we can all hear it. [ classic! ]

[logicals]

I don't want to play any of these games.

[cons]

[that's a shame.]

dare, then!

I dare you to ride the lift for five floors, in nothing but your briefs, and when anyone asks you why you're not wearing clothes you have to tell them 'because science'.

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

No one can name "almost any film" just by a single quote.

[voice]

[cons]

Well, realistically. Me, a 24 year-old living in the year 2009. A movie that I've seen, or even might have seen. Gimme a movie quote, go ahead, try me.

[andblockbuster]

[Now, see... Topher doesn't want to play any of those games. He sees one of her responses up there in the two truths and a lie game and, well, he has to EXPERIMENT.

So here you go, Wichita. Have a much better option, which has Topher casually just reciting a nonsensical phrase... Well, nonsensical to anyone who doesn't watch a ton of movies.]

"What about the guy you lobotomized? Did he get a refund?"

[cons]

[ this is Wichita doing her best Schwarzenegger impression. enjoy that;]

--did 'ee get uh drefund?

That's actually lucky that I knew that one, I don't usually buckle down for action movies like that one. But. I've got a weakness... And his name is Ahnuld.

[ these are for children, young lady. 8| thankfully, some people never have to grow up. ] Dare.

[cons]

Hmmmm.

I dare you. to.


-- Ah! Okay, I got one.

I dare you to go up to the next floor, and knock on the door of the person that lives right above you. Right, but, tell them that you're collecting all the pillows on their floor because there's a scalp-eating bedbug that's been discovered on the ship and you need to run some tests down in the medbay or whatever. Make it convincing, because part two of the dare is to steal their pillow.

And leave your comm on so we can hear it.

[ripstides]

I'd rather yell. At least people would know I was serious.

Would you rather: only speak in words that begin with H or not be able to say any words that have the letter E in them?

[cons]

Good point. [ chinscratchy ]

Wow! The second one. Even if that last sentence would have been completely impossible to say.

-- If that last would to say.

[ !?!! face!! and then she's laughing ]

I li- That's a fun option. E's ...hath b- cut. [ more laughing ]

Would you rather!

Be allergic to metal, or be physically attracted to metal. [ ... HAH ] Like metal sticks to you, you're magnetically charged, not. Into metal.

Would you put up with only questions or loud voices?

Does that not make you rather typical, no belief in love?

Truth? [ L. O. L. ]

you can't use myyy opinion to help you choose, although I'm flattered you care.

I do believe in it.

have you ever let someone else take the blame for something you did? something bad, obviously.

[entrapments]

Jeeze I haven't seen games like this in ages.
Getting a little nostalgic?

[cons]

That's exactly it, actually. People've got their stuff going on, I get that. I just needed a break from it, I guess.

[heltersskelter]

[tate, on the other hand, is fond of games. he's just used to not being able to play them with anyone else. he leans forward.]

Questions.

Would you rather never be able to tell the truth again, or swallow a jar of spiders?

video;

[cons]

Jesus Christ, lies. Give me lies. You can learn to deal with that, there's no coming back from swallowing a jar of spiders. [ EEBIE JEEBIES ARE A GO ]

Would you rather feel cold all the time, or hot all the time? Like, to the extremes. As much as a body can handle.

[ Just assume everything he says is in a really weird Swedish accent. ]

As long as number one is true, I think we can be friends.

[cons]

Number one is true, yeah. [ grin. and she's not even questioning the accent bro, there are people that speak Vulcan here VULCAN. ] Now you gimme three, and I'll tell you if you meet the preliminary friend requirement.

Well, I've never been called a goober and I have no intentions of changing that. Do we pick one or do all three?

[cons]

Let's go with picking one, cause I tried all three and it's way too complicated.

[bottlearum]

[Okay, sure, why not. Jack is bored. He'll bite.]

I'd prefer speakin' only in questions than yellin' everythin' I say. Yellin' wouldn't be entirely useful when you're sneakin' in someplace, eh?

[cons]

[ that's the spirit!! ]

Thank you, that's what I'm saying! Yelling has it's purposes but sneaking is not one of them.

video.

[helpmeguideit]

Since I am definitely not a goober, as you said, I think that three is the lie.

[ He considers his three for only a moment. ]

I am from New York.
Tequila makes me sick.
I was born in 1932.

[cons]

Three is the lie, yes.

[ h-hey wasn't he just- and- ok. ]

-- That's totally a trick question, I've no idea when you're from! [ but she's got her thinky face on anyway ] Still. I'm gonna go with number two. [ because the first man that looked and sounded like this man that she talked to was a drinker too, hee hee ]

bravo.

well, everyone's a fan of bacon, so. I'm gonna go with number one.

[upstairsbrain]

[ Have an eyebrow-raising, amused Sam. ]

For one: questions. I don't think it'd be too bad.

For two, number two... define "almost any."

For three, truth.

video;

[cons]

Another triple-player. Wasn't anticipating that! But.

By 'almost any' I mean, most of your typical popular films of the twenty-first century, and maybe a few not-as-popular. I had a lot of time to familiarize myself. [ yay hotelroom HBO ] ...Wait, dammit I think I just ruined the game, great. [ laughs ]

Have you ever lied to someone to try and impress them, then got caught? I'm only asking because I wanna hear the story, so feel free to make one up even if you haven't.
