TWO TRUTHS AND A LIE

There have been a lot of riftfarers arriving lately. It seems like there have been more arriving than usual. So many different kinds of people from different kinds of worlds with stories to tell and experiences to give.

A little game has appeared on the shellphone network in hopes of getting to know just a little more about these otherworlders. You might find it on your shellphone as you’re scrolling through one day.

Tell the world two truths and one lie about yourself. And let others try and decipher which of the three is your lie. If they can guess right, perhaps you’ve been able to make a new acquaintance. Or in the least learn more about someone from another walk of life.

Hamlet's the one story made by the one guy who wrote about the raven, right?

[This is the same kid who didn't know Romeo and Juliet were about star-crossed lovers and not 'father and daughter'. Shakespeare isn't his strong suit.]

[inlovewithmycar]

you're a couple centuries and an entire continent off. that'd be poe, and i had nothing to do with him. he was entirely his own problem.

[catsgothistongue]

Oh. Either way, I'm picking that one as my guess.

[inlovewithmycar]

nope, it's 100% the truth. i'm the reason hamlet went from flop to hit.

sorry about that. just know you suffered through kenneth branagh hamming it up for a very good cause.

[catsgothistongue]

... Who?

[inlovewithmycar]

don't worry about it.

care to try again? you're down to a 50/50 chance

[catsgothistongue]

Alright, let's see...

[Don't mess this up Saotome!]

Two?

[inlovewithmycar]

ooh

bad luck. sorry, i take my prime time telly very seriously.

it's 1 i'm afraid. queen's a pretty good band, but i never went out my way to see them live.

[catsgothistongue]

Damn it. Honestly thought I had it there. Then again, isn't my fault you've got bad taste.

[He's neither seen Golden Girls or listened to Queen but he's just being a salty little bitch.]

[inlovewithmycar]

you one of freddie mercury's groupies then?

[catsgothistongue]

Hell no! I've got a million better things to do than obsessed with a dumb band.

[inlovewithmycar]

such as...?

[catsgothistongue]

Martial arts.

[inlovewithmycar]

oh that's pretty cool actually.

is it a hobby or are you looking to movie stunts and stuff?

[catsgothistongue]

[Finally someone understands how cool martial arts is!]

It's not just a hobby, it's my life! I've been training in it before I could even walk.

[inlovewithmycar]

[Crowley snickers to himself but he's not the one to burst anyone's bubble about their special interests.]

alright then. they're your life. out of curiosity, how do you teach anyone how to punch through bricks when they're barely even able to grab things yet?

[catsgothistongue]

What? Don't be ridiculous, I wasn't breaking bricks when I was a few months old.

[...]It was when I was about two that Pop taught me how to get strong enough to break brick and wall at that age. [As you do.]

[inlovewithmycar]

[Ah. One of those kinds of parents huh.]

Your pop is working you pretty hard to fulfill his goals, eh?

[catsgothistongue]

If that's what you wanna call it, then that lazy moron busts his ass making sure I carry on the legacy of the school.

[Since this is text, Crowley cannot see the teen rolling his eyes, though the words on screen is practically dripping with sarcasm.]

[inlovewithmycar]

[Definitely that kind of parent, then.]

your dad around here, or did you show up on your own?

[catsgothistongue]

[That kind of parent being a really good dad, right Crowley?]

Nope, just me. No one from back home've popped up yet, I'd know by know if they did. I know other people who've had guys and girls they know show up though.

[Hell, the crew he's apart of is mostly made up of Izuku and his classmates.]
