are these things even accurate?

the LIE DETECTOR meme

So, you're hooked up to a lie detector. Who knows why. Bad luck, I guess. The fact remains that, unlike certain forced-truth memes, you can lie... but your thread partner will know immediately. Is it worth the risk?

• Top level. Feel free to leave preferences, or even reasons why your character might be connected to a lie detector in the first place.
• Comment around! Ask those uncomfortable questions. Make 'em squirm! Or help them out of the lie detector, if you're a kind soul.
• Have fun! (Or else.)

[Twitch is so curious and excited looking at the little machine attached to her arm that her feet are off the ground, and she spins slightly as she cranes her head toward it.]

Do these things really work? Ah, this is so exciting! [A pause, but when she realizes it didn't register that as a lie she gasps.] Oh my gosh, I think it really is working!

((Voice testing! OTA for gen; not interested in shipping.))

[rewilding]

It's debatable! [Dot's fond and it's warming up her voice to see how much Twitch enjoys discovery.] Polygraph's got a long, infamous history of inaccuracy with humans, despite that some departments swear by it. But, it can pick up on physiological changes that might indicate someone is more nervous about a topic, which could be a lie. Lots'a speculation.

So. I guess first I should ask what happened to those saplings I planted a few weeks ago that disappeared.

[fancyflight]

[Twitch really does learning all these new things -- especially things that are important to her family, though this isn't one of those. It's still really interesting! --But then, oops, busted.]

Um... [And when the thing actually goes off she has to protest:] Hey! I didn't even say anything yet! [She narrows her eyes at the device on her arm for a moment, more assessing squint than glare.] You're good...

...I... I wanted to hunt for the Wakwak with Dad, and Robby was busy but he told me I needed two sticks, so I found some... He told me to put them back, and I was really going to! But I wanted to find dad first, and then when I tried to put them back I couldn't figure out how, and-- And I hid them. [She slumps, hanging her head but peeking up at Dot in ashamed solemnity.] Sorry, Mom.

[rewilding]

[It's a delight to experience, and Dot can actually imagine not lasting long in Witwicky without these two. They outweigh GHOST and all Optimus's garbage.] Well, you definitely have differing physiological reactions, baby. That's good to know. [These two should also be getting a physical from someone. Not. Wheeljack.]

And I do understand. It's not always easy to find the tools that are the right size for the job around the barn. Next time if I'm not here, you can always call me at work and ask me for advice. [She smiles at Twitch.] And if you want, I can teach you how to plant them. You know the big trees all around the back almost all started that small? Some even smaller.

[fancyflight]

So it's different than how it would work for humans... I wonder if it would work the same for Cybertronians or if we're different from them, too. We can run on water and they can't! [She's a budding little scientist... Though not like Wheeljack, and no, he proooobably should not be allowed to examine them.]

I was afraid you'd be upset. I don't want to disappoint you. [Small voice, small baby bird.] But... You'll show me how to put them back right? And they'll be as good as new?

--Wait, does that mean those little saplings will get that big?? [Eeee! That was exciting, frankly.]
