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!

Has it ever occurred to you that I have a good reason to hide who I am?

I've been hated, betrayed, tortured and hunted because of what I am. That is what's stopping me. Satisfied?

[forhyrule]

One would assume you have good reasons to hide it, else why would you be so hesitant to share the truth?

Are those persecutions ones suffered in your homeland or here in this realm?

[aquilasshadow]

My homeland and the world after that so you can understand why I'm hesitant to risk it a third time.

Everyone's been nice here. It's confusing but I like it and don't want to lose that.

[forhyrule]

I will admit- [ since this kirin dander kinda makes it impossible not to ] -I find myself very curious to know what manner of being you are that has caused you to be reviled in not one, but two different realms.

Storms you just had to ask that when I can't lie didn't you?

I'm a magical being whose very existence damages the fabric of the world around him. It's all part of a manipulative bitch of a nameless goddess's plan to escape her magical dimension and rebuild the world to be kinder to mages like us, although she doesn't care about the countless lives that will be lost or how agonizing it is being her unwilling pawns simply because we still want to live.

I can't believe I ever cared for her.
