Two truths and a lie used to be big with my friends. You say three "facts" about you or things you've done or seen. People try to pick one out as a lie, and then it's their turn to do the same thing. For example:

1. I've been crocodile wrestling.
2. I once flunked a vocabulary test because I forgot to put my name on the top.
3. I crashed a dune buggy when I was twelve and despite totaling the dune buggy, the worst I ended up with was a badly scraped up elbow.

Anyone up and around for a game?

[wow private like maybe THE REST OF THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN]

[biwinning]

no.
that'2 the quadrant ii have wiith hiim.
and even iif he wa2 that'd 2tiill be wrong.
we have four quadrant2.
and you adhere to them or you don't date at all.
you don't cheat or you lo2e your liimb2.

ii don't know why he'2 wiith hiim.
but he won't lii2ten two me.

[private now that we're............discussing............ yeah whoops]

[whatsupcroc]

What about the non-sexual love quadrant? Does he have someone there who might be able to help him figure out this other dude is being a total jerk? It'd make a little sense that he'd be ignoring what you say because he doesn't want to think you're right, with the whole.. hate part. And denial's strong in all sorts of people.

[so whoops]

[biwinning]

ii don't know.
he ha2 nepeta but
ii don't thiink he'2 brought iit up wiith her.
ii don't know what'2 goiing on wiith them.

[whatsupcroc]

Can the different quadrants talk to each other? Since you love him too, talk to her and ask if he has, or if she knows anything? Since you both care about him, and maybe he needs to hear from her but doesn't know how to tell her he does?

[biwinning]

...
thii2 ii2 really unorthodox, for a kii2me2ii2 two do...
but.
yeah, ii'll talk two her.

[whatsupcroc]

I'm glad! I really hope that it helps, and that she can help with the guy you both care about. It really sucks seeing your friends hurting themselves when they really don't need to be.

[biwinning]

collette.
you are one of the three human2 iin thii2 place that are 2mart.

[whatsupcroc]

That's really nice of you to say, Sollux! Though of course it makes me want to ask who the other two are, in your opinion.

Good luck, you know? I'm really hoping it all works out.

[biwinning]

roxy lalonde and jeriicho.
everyone el2e ii2 dumb.

and iit probably won't.
ii'm goiing two lo2e my teeth 2oon.

[whatsupcroc]

So... how do you feel about dentures?

[biwinning]

they'll grow back.

[whatsupcroc]

Your teeth completely grow back? Just like that? That's so cool!

[biwinning]

yeah.
we'd be pretty 2hiitty predator2 iif we diidn't ju2t regrow our teeth back.

[whatsupcroc]

That's like shark levels of awesome here! Do you have rows behind what you've got now, or is it they just grow back super-fast?

[biwinning]

uh.
ii don't know.
the latter ii thiink?

[whatsupcroc]

As much as I don't look forward to the probably face punching that will cause the loss of your teeth I'm going to admit I'm kind of morbidly curious to know how long it'll be before you're back at top form.

[biwinning]

iif by top form you mean lii2piing liike a moron then yeah top form.
approxiimately 1/3rd a 2ea2on.

[whatsupcroc]

You don't sound like a moron. You need to say some pretty stupid and insensitive stuff to pull that off! Lisping's not so bad.

( she's heard far worse. he can talk -- that's a gift, really. quirks of genetics can give far more inhibitive gifts. )

How long would that be here in Exsilium?

[biwinning]

no ii do that all the tiime anyway.

ii'd 2ay.
a ...month?
or two.

[whatsupcroc]

That's not so bad... I was thinking it'd take longer. Still, be careful? Even if it's cool you can grow all that back and stuff, getting punched that hard really bites!
