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!

  • This meme is game canon unless marked otherwise at the start of threads! Threads can be used for spoons and application samples.
  • Assume all characters involved on this meme are affected.
  • Characters will compulsively state truths about themselves/their feelings on the network or in-person. Top-levels may include either/both options.
  • Please include prompts in your top level.
  • All questions will be answered with complete and total honesty. No special abilities, half-truths, or omissions can avoid sharing all of the truth.
  • Meme is open until the next truth meme!
  • After one month, you may use the kirin mechanic generally in game. It can be one-sided! All truth-telling characters must consent.

Oh so your invitation was purely based on that, huh?

I ended up asking a lot of questions of thing, and I was here as I was following it the whole way here

I'm not sure what my invitation was based on, but that was how I took it.

Clearly I should've taken the chance to interrogate the fox, beyond the first couple of questions. I tend to get information through observation so...

Oh that's *rough*

I do that too, but I don't think I can even trust its body language. After all, it split itself into so many other forms here, it's most definitely pulled apart its emotions

It's not helping, to say the least, but there's a lot I can learn about the area - my geographical lack of knowledge aside.

It's definitely the most generous place I've ever been. I mean, it's almost impossible to end up in a situation where you can't get everything you need to survive.

Yeah

short of entrapment somewhere where you can't talk to people (or trial dangers) I don't think it'd even be possible to not survive here.

Especially given death apparently isn't real

I'm not that eager to push and make sure that's true. I'm happy enough to live on rumours there.

It's really weird that they bring people in who want for nothing. I don't know what to make of it. Don't get me wrong, it's nice, but it's also unsettling.

Physically, anyway.

People want things emotionally. I think that's probably the point.

Do they? I wouldn't really know.

I don't really have time to worry about my emotional wants or whatever at home. All I do is work.
