I occasionally imitate famous people to get free stuff. And hot people to get free drinks.

When I was a teenager I ended all my sentences with an aggressive 'da.' Because my name ends in 'da.' I thought it was the coolest thing ever.

I don't know how to swim, and I refuse to learn because someone might ask me to go into the sea, and the sea is horrible.

1. My name is William.

2. My name is Billy.

3. My name is Liam.

1) I didn't graduate high school.

2) I have two brothers I've never met.

3) I worked in a museum gift shop.

1. I did vaudeville as a kid.
2. I'm a time traveler.
3. I make great challah bread.

I'm going to go with the first one as the lie. Mostly because time-travelers are cool and challah bread is delicious.

I go to SFIT.

I'm fifteen years old.

I've been in jail before.

[ assume by meme magic that these have appeared against his will, because kaiser's backstory is bonkers crazy and he would never admit any of this: ]

His mother is a famous actress who abandoned him at birth.
He was secretly adopted by the president of FIFA to avoid getting nailed with criminal charges for assaulting police officers.
He's a professional athlete at the top of his age group for a sport that he's played for less than four years.

It's gotta be number two. If the pigs had dirt on you, John FIFA'd be sending you straight behind bars to make you play without having to pay out your bougie fuck salary.

[ A solemn nod. His bro didn't raise some wet behind the ears idiot, he knows how this shit works. ]

Those assholes don't like anything more than capitalism and slave labor.

[ hm... let him visibly think about this answer, like he's assessing an essay that's been submitted for a literature class or something. ]

Right conclusion, though you have the wrong reasoning. I'll still give you full credit, though, because that answer shows an acceptable amount of media literacy.

[ maybe he shouldn't talk about his own life like he would a movie, but look, when your life has enough twists and turns... ]

Wanna try again, or should I tell you what the wrong assumption was? Here, I'll give you a hint for free... it has to do with the sequence of events.

1. I've spent my entire existence trapped in a single room until the person I helped try to kill let me out! 2. I am literally, incapable of lying! ... Um. Gosh, this is pretty hard. Maybe we should have played a different game, it kind of seems like you might have the advantage here?

Well, that's interesting. I've never seen a bot like you before.

Thank you! I like to think that I’m one of a kind. My chassis isn’t, though!

I meant that I've never seen your model type before. I could be mistaken though. Things start to blend together in the Wasteland.

Aw, shucks. You'll make a securitron blush!

Were any securitrons sent to the east coast? I'm from the Capital Wasteland.

[ Eager to play, Abel doesn't have to be forced into anything. ]

Let's see...

One. Oh, I've outrun boars, but only barely!

The second... let's see... but wolf spiders are really scary. I hope I never see them again.

And a third one? Apples are my favorite food.

[ He doesn't choose to play these games... ]

1. I've been a millionaire.
2. I'm been homeless-level poor.
3. I don't like salad.

1. I have no mother.

2. I suck at math.

3. The girl I like has bitten me.

[...that expression with that last bullet gives Till a too familiar, creepy vibe.]

It's number two, isn't it?

['Creepy' is a good word for it.]

Bzzzt! Wrong, I'm a deft hand at all levels of math. I even coached my believer while she was answering questions in school.

[He helped her cheat, in other words.]

Dang, what?! You're pretty good at this...

Is it number one?? That seems like it can be kind of a trick, right? Unless you were lab grown.

[which. isn't unusual, from his origins. but]

Hehe~ [It feels good to actual score one in this game! And he looks damn proud, too.]

Sure is! Though I'm not lab grown - I'm one-hundred percent authentic! It's just that I was born from a wish.

[Silly sounding? Maybe. But it's entirely true.]

A wish...

[as he should. Till sucks at pretty much everything, so the embarrassment of being bested goes pretty quick.]

That's kinda ...romantic? [Till holds his chin, thoughtfully. he knows there's all kinds of crazy shit in this place, but he still can't help but be curious..] Sounds like a song or something. How's that even work?

Hah... I wish it were...

[Depends on the wish, really. And the one he was born from was decidedly not romantic.]

Well, if people's hopes and desires are collectively strong enough, a god is born from them to fulfill their wishes.

...Yeah?

[Till juts his jaw forward with a sour, sulking scowl, thinking of Mizi. he didn't know much in detail, but she'd mentioned something about it before.]

I feel like if that were true, my species wouldn't have ended up the way it did. I guess we forgot about prayer.

Are you not human? Or is it just that they don't have any faith where you're from?

[Either seems like a possibility. He's met people where there's no gods in their world, but he's also met plenty of non-humans, too.]

No faith. God is considered a vestigial cultural thing. Earth was basically destroyed and we were all taken as pets to those invaders, like...way, way back. It'd be kind of like your dog believing in a higher power. Know what I mean?

Oh. [Damn.] Yeah, I guess... I kinda do. Except you guys can rationalize and think for yourselves. That's pretty different from being a dog, even if someone treats you like one.

Hm...

I like the color yellow.
I used to overfill my glass whenever I got a drink.
I enjoy anime.

1. I'm a Japanese actor.
2. I like chocolate cake.
3. I find cat mugs adorable.

1.) I was a peasant.
2.) I am the strongest god in Heaven.
3.) My best friend is a strip of silk.

1. I'm 50 years old.
2. I hate opera.
3. My favorite drink is a Matcha Latte.

Whose years?

Earth years.

[Kryptonians do age slower than human though.]

[honestly who knows how long an earth year even lasts; not this god]

And what is a matcha latte, exactly?

[According to Science (tm), it's one Earth rotation which lasts for 365 days. But that is neither here or there as much as Kara is concerned.]

Oh! It's a beverage made from Matcha powder and milk. You can have it hot or cold. Sometimes people add white chocolate or strawberries to it. It's really good.

Edited 2024-10-28 01:49 (UTC)

[yup, absolutely unknowable,,

but also, time for a head-tilt.] It's the opera, then. Who could hate opera?

Well, I do.

[Kara makes a game show buzzer sound ("EHH EHH!") while making an X with her arms.]

Sorry! [She laughs while straightening herself out, putting her hands on her hips.] Try again?

[the brow arch is less surprised than judgmental, because he is who he is.]

Do you really? It's one of the few bits of humanity that properly recommends them.

Don't get me wrong. Opera is a beautiful art form. I can appreciate the history, the amazing voices, the sets, what have you.

It's just... gosh, I'm sorry but it is long. I guess my attention span isn't that sophisticated yet.

Isn't the dragging part of the art? They've such a blip of existence, but they devote long stretches of it to trying to sort out beauty?

It is. I guess when it was starting out, it was the place to be, listening to that soprano belting.

I guess I'm too impatient?

1. I dropped out of high school.
2. I joined my gang when I was 16.
3. I'm an English tutor for one of my clanmates.

1. I'm the main breadwinner for my family.
2. I've dedicated a program to my cat.
3. I also practice ballet.

1. I hate chocolate.
2. I've died three times
3. I'm actually still dead.

1. My parents are alive.
2. I signed a one-hundred year contract.
3. I once broke my hand punching a wall.

I like spicy food.

I'm afraid of the dark.

I'm afraid of touch.

1. I used to dance ballet. I still remember enough to do the basic forms.
2. I have an identical twin.
3. I'm a widower.
