TRUTH OR DARE

[cactusy]

1) Post your characters, one per comment.
2) Comment around ICly asking other characters "truth or dare?"
3) Truth is self-explanatory; dares should involve tagging out to another character's top level somehow ("Insult someone you find terrifying", "Tell someone you think is hot one thing you find sexy about them", "Strike up a conversation using the most awkward non-sequitur you can come up with", etc.)

... Yeah. Even if they're playing the long game, I figure they'd have done something by now, and they haven't done crap.

That kinda goes for if this is real too, though. We still don't know why we're here.

[meadqueen]

If it's real then we could be here for no reason. An accident of fate.

[cactusy]

Somebody gave us the walkies.

[meadqueen]

Or they're assigned by automation like whatever controlled the drones.

[cactusy]

Magic automation that can work across parallel universes?

[meadqueen]

Is that less probable than a consciously controlled magic that does so? This place has been abandoned for decades.

[cactusy]

It'd have to be about a hundred times more powerful than any machine I've ever encountered, and that's something something.

[meadqueen]

Have you ever seen something like the storm transporting an item from Senku’s past? It all seems like magic to me.

Do you still believe I have another person hidden in my mind?

[cactusy]

I believe it's a possibility. But I'm not convinced anymore. I'm not convinced of much of anything anymore.

[meadqueen]

Is it better or worse if you're not the target?

[cactusy]

That depends on a lot of variables. If it is Decima - they're bad news, and they wouldn't hesitate to kill any of you without a second thought. But I'm not gonna pretend they're the worst option in the entire universe.

[meadqueen]

I see.

I think whatever this is is going to make the rest of you feel the way I do all the time.

[cactusy]

And how do you feel all the time?

[meadqueen]

We are distilling alcohol you can't drink in order to kill small invisible animals that get into your blood and cause disease. Anything could be true.

[cactusy]

... Yeah. Sounds about right.

[meadqueen]

I'm still not sure about the airplanes, though. You might all be making those up.

[A joke, but it might be hard to tell]

[cactusy]

I'll believe you about being a viking if you believe me about bacteria and airplanes; deal?

[meadqueen]

I'm not a Viking anymore, I'm just Norse.

But all right.
