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.

[The problem was... Beat couldn't think of a good enough lie for something like this. Because of that, what he decides to type out comes out more vulnerable than he'd originally anticipated.]

1. i hadta play in a game so i can come back to life
2. im starting to feel numb cause i keep losing my friends
3. i stood in line the whole day just to get a pendant my sis wanted

[astudyinviolet]

The third one is the lie.

[stillarhino]

nah i did that yo
imma do anything for my sis

[astudyinviolet]

It could have been different span of time or for a different item, but very well. Was it the first?

[stillarhino]

that ones true too
yo didnt think i was gonna nail that the second time round

[But at what cost.]

[astudyinviolet]

I am going to need you to explain the lie.

[ It's either worrying or something Sherlock is going to be very jealous of. ]

[stillarhino]

[It takes a moment for Beat to form a reply, typing something out and deleting it more than a couple of times. Oddly enough, it's hard to explain himself, especially when it comes to something like this. Finally he figures it out and sends Sherlock a series of messages in quick succession.]

ive lost a lotta friends even before i got here
back home then in songerein
youd think that a guys gonna get used to that kinda thing if it keeps happening
but it aint like that for me yo
no way
still hurts like hell every time

[astudyinviolet]

[ Worrying but not as worrying as he feared. ]

I see. In some way, I am glad for that being the case in that fashion. However in other ways, that is most disappointing.

[stillarhino]

Disappointed ya lost?

[astudyinviolet]

You misunderstand me. While I am glad you have not gone numb, I am disappointed that the loss or disappearance of people is so great, even beyond this world's boundaries.

Or perhaps I am disappointed that the loss does not get easier with time. It is hard to say.

[stillarhino]

real talk it aint ever gonna be easy
least not for me
and yeah that shit hurts but if i can do something about it imma do it
i know this world dont work this way but if can find them then imma get them back

[He's done it more than once before. Not in the worlds he's been in since Shibuya, but at least with his sister and his best friend. He's not one to give up easily.]

[astudyinviolet]

What do you plan to do? Saying you will do something without an idea of what that might as well not be said at all.

[stillarhino]

i dont got a plan and i know i aint all that smart
but i aint gonna stop moving
imma figure it out somehow

[astudyinviolet]

[ Sherlock will give him credit for knowing and acknowledging his shortcomings. That is more than some do, and so he eases up on Beat. ]

If you do come across something, be sure to share the information.

[stillarhino]

hell yeah
you got it homie!

[astudyinviolet]

It's Holmes.
