[While she's out the next day! Doing some "shopping," which means hunting to get some more raw meat to keep in his basement.]

You make any progress on learning people's names yet?

Comments

[a_wrong_turn]

That's a good way to think of it!

[And he's not gonna keep looking for revenge. Even better. She assumes so, anyways.]

What else do you wanna do with your new lease on life?

[taking_names]

I don't know, it's kind of scary.

What would you do with one?

[a_wrong_turn]

Have some fun, first. You've gone through a lot.

[taking_names]

I do kind of want to enjoy it.

But what about the lifetime of research I'll need to become immortal?

[a_wrong_turn]

If you only research, you'll just get frustrated and fuck up because it's all work. Doing some fun stuff will help you relax and do your research better.

We also have to pay the bills, remember?

[taking_names]

I figured I would go on making potions...

Although that's sort of time consuming in itself...

Oh, Girl Who Likes to Throw Things in My Hair, becoming immortal is going to be tough!

[a_wrong_turn]

It's kinda that legendary crazy thing, so... it's supposed to be tough.

Do you wanna come along when I become a rogue? Maybe we could go do something after I do it. Or whatever.

[taking_names]

Okay. Is there a trial you'll have to do? Like a lying trial?

[a_wrong_turn]

I dunno! Maybe?

I'll kick its ass, whatever it is!

[taking_names]

I don't doubt that!

[unless it requires subtlety]

[a_wrong_turn]

I hope it's not gonna be lying. I'm a kinda shitty liar.

[taking_names]

I'm good at lying sometimes, if you want help.

[a_wrong_turn]

You don't say.

Okay. Let's play a game. It's called two truths and a lie.

Tell me two true things and a lie. I have to guess which the lie is.

[taking_names]

What like right now

[a_wrong_turn]

No, next Tuesday. Yeah, right now!

[taking_names]

It's hard because I just voluntarily invalidated my reality.

...could you give me like a topic

[a_wrong_turn]

Do you want me to go first?

[taking_names]

...maybe.

[a_wrong_turn]

Okay... One of these is a lie.

[Uuuuh hm this is kind of hard.]

I like your new haircut better than the old one.

I think your player is kinda funny.

I was jealous when I first found out you lived with Iravati.

[taking_names]

The first one.

You mourned!

[a_wrong_turn]

See? I'm bad at lying.

[taking_names]

The trick is to make yourself believe it's true.

[a_wrong_turn]

Sounds complicated. Huh, let's see...

Well, I guess your current haircut is kinda cute.

[taking_names]

Are you lying still

I don't like this game anymore

[a_wrong_turn]

I dunno, you tell me!
