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.)

[ His head tilts as she breaks eye contact. ]

The people who made you think this is a simulation? Why did they do that?

[ When she jerks her gaze back up at him, he smiles a little for the first time in a while. ]

You have to ask me "truth or dare" first. That's how this works, eh?

[ Forget that it's her turn. They can circle back to her later. ]

Truth or dare, Salamanca.

[She'll answer his first question after he picks.]

[salamanca]

Truth.

[cactusy]

[And there it is.]

Are you in love with Rust Cohle?

[salamanca]

Sí.

[ That's perhaps not quite true; hard to be IN LOVE with someone you've only known for two weeks, after all. But Lalo isn't lying. He believes it to be true, anyway. And he does genuinely feel something. ]

Truth or dare?

[cactusy]

La verdad, por favor.

[salamanca]

[ He is pleased, hearing Spanish. ]

Decirme about your ideal self, in ten words or less.

[cactusy]

[She pauses. Thinks. Counts off the words in her head on her fingers, and-- okay, good, that's ten.]

Exactly the same, but capable of real love and grief.
