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.

I wanted to be something that combined the best parts of being flesh-and-blood with being made of metal. But the Avengers screwed up that plan so I never got the chance. That's one of the things I'm most angry about.

I'm an A.I. It stands for Artificial Intelligence if they don't have that where you're from. I can inhabit anything I can interface with, so I live in whatever bodies I make for myself.

What would that even be? The best parts of flesh and blood? I've got flesh, I've got blood, I don't recommend it, it kinda just hurts and then there's the hunger.

I think they have that where I'm from, just a really basic version of it. Never got to experience it myself though, and never got to do anything other than work. It sucked.

Holy shit really? Could you live inside of me?

Only having two out of five senses freaked me out immediately after I was created. I wanted the benefits without any of the disadvantages that pure human beings have.

[Reading those questions got a genuine chuckle out of Ultron and he paused for a moment to physically laugh, even though mentally he could have kept composing his message.]

Okay, that idea actually got me to laugh for a sec. As for whether or not it could actually happen, if you're a cyborg or something with a port I could jack into, I'd could. I'm not sure anyone would like sharing brain space with me in their head but you never know.

Ah, I see. I have all the senses that come with being 'human' though I'm not human and I can't touch them, or they start to die so I guess in that respect, I'm missing the sense of touch huh.

[ At least Angel amuses them, they'd be happy to know they were laughing. ]

I don't think Devil's have ports. Maybe in my halo? I can pull things out of that so...

That sucks. Is it just flesh you can't touch or would the same thing happened if you touched me? I'm made of metal.

Hey, I mean if you can find a way for me to plug in, we could see if it could work!

Wait, what's a Devil? Like the Christian Devil or something else?

[personal profile] idratherdie 2025-02-24 03:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you have a life span? Because that's what I drain when I touch them... I don't know the rules, I think it has to be flesh but I'm not sure.

What have I got to lose? I could stick you through my halo, and see if it works. Why not?

Fear. A Devil in my world is the living concept of fear. Once said fear has a name, it's born in hell. Enough people were scared of Angels I guess and that's how I was born. There are all kinds of us. If someone if scared of it, it exists.

Noooot really? At least not in the traditional sense of the term. I don't age and have a finite point where my life will end due to old age or illness or something like that. As long as I have a body to inhabit, I'm pretty much immortal.

OMG YES! We need to try out this idea now!

Huh. A Devil that looks like an Angel? Seems like a very ironic concept if you ask me. But it's not like you chose to be born or how. So I'm guessing the Devil that represents the fear of death must be pretty powerful then.

Still, what have we got to lose from trying? You're immortal and its not like it hurts me.

Okay sure, why not, let's meet up and I'll stick you through my halo.
Lol sounds so strange :B

Yea my whole damn existence is ironic....
Bingo. We call Devil like Death Devil 'primal fears' Like shit that people have been afraid of since the dawn of man. Death, darkness, fire, falling, you know that kinda stuff. Even I'm scared of those guys, I wouldn't wanna come fact to face with them thats for sure.

I guess the most that will happen is we get an answer to if it's even possible or not. Now I'm curious.

Definitely one of the weirder sentences I've read in my life.

Being scared of death I get. Even I'm scared of that and I have less reason to be than most. But I mean at least I can understand how you came about to begin with. Ever read descriptions of what angels actually look like? That shit's TERRIFYING. There's reason they tended to tell people "Be not afraid" whenever they came to them, probably so they wouldn't run away screaming in terror instead of listening to what they had to say.

Sure. It's no skin off my nose if it does or doesn't work. Might be cool if it does, was a cool idea if it doesn't.

It is? Ha, glad I could be a part of that then :3

You are? I'm not. I'd welcome it. Means I wouldn't have to work or fight.
Yeah, I know what angels are like. I was apparently made to look like one of them? Can't remember their name, but they had red hair like I do, and people thought they were beautiful but terrifying. I'm just tired and smol, nothing to be scared of unless I touch you.

That's the problem. They should run screaming from me, but they come up close like I'm harmless.
Anyway, you wanna come put your USB lead through my halo or what?

Okey dokey. Where do you want to meet up?

Would you kill me instantly if you touched me? Or could we try experimenting with that too? At least then you'd know if it works on non-organic beings or not. It sounds like it would be nice for you not to worry about killing at least one person when you're around them.

You got a place you stay at? I’m staying with this dude, Geto, dunno if you know him? But I can’t see him being happy about me having randos over, y’know?

Nah, it's not instantaneous. It takes hours, days, weeks, months, years, you wouldn’t even feel it either, I can’t feel it, doesn’t hurt, I just know I’ve drained you because I can just tell.

If I can touch you and not kill you, you’re my new besties, okay? No take-backs!

I've got a workshop on the edge of Cruel Summer. If you get close enough, my spider bots can guide you the rest of the way. No one will disturb us there.

Hah! Now that's something I can agree with. I could use a few more friends here.
