Truth Meme
Truth Meme
Somehow, there is kirin on you.
Most likely, it is the fur of the kirin that was caught in the environment of wherever you’ve been; there is a stray hair on you because one was on the seat you sat on upon the train or because it blew onto the brim of your hat in the wind.
Or it may be because you met the kirin—a playful ungulate moose-sized spirit who prefers not to speak—and engaged with him and gave him a pat, or a scratch behind an ear. Maybe the kirin nosed or licked your hand because you made him laugh (it’s an adorable ‘keh keh keh’ sound).
Unfortunately for both you and the kirin (who had not meant to trouble your day like this, truly), this exposure to his dander has only one reaction, and it happens to 100% of Star Children: you are compelled to tell the entire truth. About what is less specific; you are compelled simply to announce things about yourself—your life, experiences, thoughts, opinions, feelings. No matter if it’s something silly and inconsequential, deep or secretive, life-altering or commonplace. Some may choose to do this by employing Foxi and their relic; others by finding people to exchange truth with to face to face.
When you have met the kirin’s subconscious desire for four hours, you will be free from the truth telling and the recipient of 24 hours of good luck. The good luck will be sometime in the next year rather than in the next day, and you may have no idea where it came from, but you’ll know a lucky day when you have it!

text un: vi
also fire one back if u want
cause guess who cant bullshit
its me i cant
it hit me too whatever it was
no subject
Why do you care about my opinion on fries of all things?
no subject
if u hated them id have to pick smth else to hand u next time u looked hungry
its hard to tell if ur rly hungry or just side eyeing stuff
but 50/50 chance so
handing over food makes things less awkward
its not 💯 but more like 70/30
no subject
Staying silent or walking away from a situation also serves to make it less awkward. Offering food only prolongs exposure to one another.
no subject
tons of places people hate each other for a whole bunch of reasons and only some of them make any sense
true true esp the walking away bc then u just leave the other person with the awk
but yeah if u stay quiet long enough theyll prob move on
tho then u miss out on food and dont get any lore to use
prolonged exposure
u make it sound worse than a trial
is it really
besides the trials where the whole point is talking
is talking to someone worse than weather shit?
no subject
I theorize that has to do with the desire to collect Lore. Which means most of the kindness people to display to each other is fake.
If I could avoid both I would. There's little point in outside of Lore to spend time associating with people here. Eventually they'll simply leave and you'll be left with a strange and unpleasant feeling to deal with. [ the feeling is missing someone. ]
no subject
but seriously yeah that tracks
not so sure that makes it fake tho
in some cases totally
but if u already like the ppl then its just extra motivation
like idk working for a friend
sure i get paid
but i also get to hang
which id do anyway for free
i cant argue that
i mean actually i can and i will but ur half right
the feeling sucks
but its better than not having the memories
try being stuck with urself for almost a decade
just u and a concrete cell and maybe a rat for company
other than ppl beating the shit outta u
no subject
My estimation would be that your scenario is the exception to the rule of all interactions here being fake to some degree.
I am not entirely certain if I agree. I dislike the idea of having my memories tampered with. But I also dislike the feeling enough to want it gone.
Why would I mind being alone with myself? I'm the best company I can have.
...were you in jail?
no subject
bc im a smartass
maybe but id bet its more than u think
not as many assholes here as im used to
some assholes but no real ASSHOLES
if u catch my meaning capital letters for emphasis
mixed bag but i guess if id rather keep it all than let go of it
i dont know who id even be without all the people ive lost
ur p good company but say that after idk nine years with nobody but u
yup prison and for a long ass time too
its why i cant stand closed doors and small spaces
wow not sure why i just said that but ill put it down to 'bullshit curse'
no subject
I understood that capitals are meant for emphasis. I've had to suffer through blog posts that use them all too frequently.
A less depressed version of yourself I would imagine.
Another situation where Thirteen forces us to dance to her whims. In the past she had a much stronger penchant for forcing people to talk to each other without any barriers. I hadn't missed it.
I put a boy I have a complicated relationship into prison once. Why were you there?
no subject
bc those are p self explanatory see

(‿|‿)
butts ^^^
theres a ton but i never see those
my sister was a real whiz at this shit and i didnt have to sleep much for like a year
and sometimes i got bored soooooo
ANYWAY
idk i might not be me at all
i might have been a total ASSHOLE
who knows
thats one of the downsides of spending too much time awake
all the thinking
and the bad dreams
less sleep meant less of those so thats something i didnt mean to tell anyone
cool
now u know
theres not a lot i wont tell people if they need to know
but i dont like being forced to do it
and im sure this is someones idea of hell
maybe i could knock those ppl out so they wouldnt have to do this
just a thought
u know what
i dont even fucking know thats the stupidest part
sure i did stuff that coulda got me locked up
but not for a decade
and not in that place
the person i thought was keeping me there
ig he wasnt ??? it was some other asshole that needed somewhere else to put me
for ??? reasons
i dream about it all the time now
sometimes its why i sleep outside
whatd he do to get there
and to piss u off enough to put him there
no subject
[ she is however saving this into her records. no more will people catch her off guard with pointless emoticons. ]
I will not consider the final two you included. What purpose could they ever possibly serve in a conversation?
Avoiding sleep to avoid bad dreams appears to be a common coping mechanism among the residents of this place. Pseudoscience would argue to that being counter-productive as they believe them to be a way for the human brain to process and manage stress.
I have nightmares.
If I told you my location I would not object to being punched to prevent this line of conversation from continuing.
Your description makes it seem as though you were left as nothing more than a scapegoat for some greater scheme. Congratulations on being a pawn to the system.
I mistook him for the Hyde that was murdering people in our town. The evidence I presented was solid enough to have him arrested without hesitation.
