I am not sure how to best address this, but I have a strange urge to play a rather childish game today. It's a compulsion that feels beyond my control.

[She doesn't like where this is going but doesn't feel able to stop it.]

So, if you wish, you may ask me a question or offer a dare; in exchange, I may do the same for you. Do we have a deal?

[ooc: Affected by Truth or Dare curse! Gabriel will feel compelled to answer all questions truthfully and fulfill all dares to the letter.]

Are you so sure about that?

[The jester's grin is even more wicked than normal if possible.]

And just where would One find you as Ones dare must be performed in person. But in good faith, you may even go first.

[Ohhh Gabriel doesn't like the looks of this at all. But she tries her best to keep her expression carefully neutral.]

Yes. Of course I'm sure. I have no power to resist, it seems, even if I wasn't.

[She breaths in through her nose. Fortunately she's not prone to fidgeting, so she manages to look much more collected than she feels.]

How generous of you. Truth or dare?

[Oh it's totally innocent. For Hatter.]

Truth.

If you could change anything about the world as it exists now, in the City or at home, what would you change? Why?

[Video]

[brothertragedy]

Indeed, we do! I confess to missing childish games! They remind me of Kudari. [He briefly makes a face, as if he hadn't intended to say that.]

What a strange curse.

Truth or dare?

[Video]

[greatcherubim]

Kudari? [Gabriel tilts her head curiously.]

Dare, I suppose.

[It's Nobori so surely he can't come up with anything too bad, can he?]

[Video]

[brothertragedy]

[He's under the effects of a curse convincing him to confess to random things.] Kudari is my younger, twin brother! He is also a Subway Master. He is good at his job, but remarkably childish!

[A thoughtful pause, then:]

I dare you to ink your face like someone who lost at hanetsuki.

[Video]

[greatcherubim]

Well... as long as he's good at his job, that's what matter, isn't it?

[Gabriel smiles.]

Very well. I hope I shall do it properly. Please forgive me if I do not understand human customs the way they are meant to be understood.

[But she will do her best to go and mark her face with black ink like he said! When he returns, she smiles.]

Now, it's your turn. Truth or dare?

[whitetwoguns]

I'm sorry.

I know now is probably not the time. I just wanted to be sure to tell you that.

audio; private;

[greatcherubim]

It certainly isn't.

Nevertheless, it...

It is brave of you to address me again so openly. I wasn't expecting it. What would you do if I wanted revenge?

audio; private;

[whitetwoguns]

Brave. Stupid. Something like that.

I went after you anyway so I get what's coming to me. All I can hope for is to be ready. Don't really blame you, I guess. I was in a desperate frame of mind.

[greatcherubim]

[Gabriel is quit for some time. The silence goes on so long it almost seems like the feed has cut out, before she speaks again.]

You need not be ready for anything. Your apology is accepted. I forgive you.

You must have wanted to be home very badly. What is waiting for you that it was worth taking a life for?

audio;

[subecho]

The time is not for games, woman.

audio;

[greatcherubim]

I wish it wasn't. Unfortunately, I cannot help myself.

But you seem upset. If you tell me what's bothering you, I will do my best to assist you.

audio;

[subecho]

[ slow... ly... ]

You cannot. Help. Your own. Mouth?

audio;

[greatcherubim]

You are new here.

[It's not a question.]

I will try to explain. I think you should be seated for this.

[sympathyforme]

Oh, interesting.

video;

[greatcherubim]

Is it?

video;

[sympathyforme]

Oh yes.

Truth or dare?

[thermonuclear_birdbrain]

Yeah, sure, I'll play. Uh, do you want me to ask or dare you to do something?

[greatcherubim]

You can dare me to do something! I trust you.

[thermonuclear_birdbrain]

Okay! Uh....hmm. Go...jump in the fountain!

[bedsidemanners]

Am I barred from playing?

[greatcherubim]

...No.

[bedsidemanners]

Excellent. Truth or dare?
