COMPELLED HONESTY MEME

[mindofathief]

Who knows what's going on, but all of a sudden you're overcome with the need to be honest. Some kind of magic illness, a curse an NPC cast on you for laughs, Jade Curtiss did it, etc.

Whatever the reason, your character will suddenly find they are unable to lie when answering any questions. Evasion is impossible: they just have to get the truth out there.

1. post your characters
2. reply to other people's characters with ic questions
3. your character replies to questions they received with the whole truth and nothing but
4. catch the gentle chaos unfold with a cup of coffee and a bag of Kupo Nuts.

Note: memes are not game canon, so you don't need to worry about in-game implications.

'Cause it's a code name, dumbass.

[Sigh. Stupid compulsion, making him need to explain it.]

You know, [3] is [san] in Japanese. My number was apparently 3 for the game I was in, so I picked 'Santa' as my code name. I went with it because I was SantaClausformylittlesister. [If he can't lie, he can at least make the truth quiet and fast and hard to hear.]

I'm afraid to ask, but... "game"...?

Nonary game. You get locked in a puzzle room and have to solve your way out within 9 hours or you die. There's some pseudo-science bullshit why I got into the first one, but the second time around, we did it to save my sort-of dead sister.

[This is one of those times where honesty is way more confusing than a lie would've been.]

Another death game...? So, did you manage to save her?

[21stcenturyguy]

Yeah, I did. We went through some shit to make it happen, but we saved her.

[hopedout]

That's... good, at least.
