that time of the...uh...again

We've got some new meat this podpop, so let's roll on with the IC truth meme!

Premise: There's something happening to you...you feel strange...like you wore the wrong socks, or you accidentally ate that week old egg salad sanwich in the back of the fridge. Whatever you feel, it makes you suddenly want to be...truthful. More than that: you feel like there's something inside of you just bursting to get out!

It's!


...the truth.

Rules:
1. ICly reply to this post with your characters blurting something truthful out. It can be a deep dark secret they've been harboring, or that crush they have on that one crew member, or anything else. As long as it's the truth, it can be said.
2. Make as many truths as you want. Or..just make one really long list of truths. Whatever makes you feel comfortable.
3. Reply to other people's truths with your characters' reactions. Anything goes. pie throwing?
4. To help people scavenge through the truths, maybe put your characters' names in the subject box. optional.

Conquer it and use your mana power to convert it.

Man, everyone asks about mana power. I don't know how people don't know it. Simplest answer? Think of it as strength. Not like muscle strength, but sheer power. You have a lot more than the average human. Nanashi has more than most Overlords. You gain mana... well, some of it is inherent, some of it is training, and some of it is just defeating people. Anything that makes you stronger.

That sounds familiar, but not in a good way. Then again, I expected that."

Of course they do. We call it completely different things, people are bound to get confused. Like, I would call what gives me strength is training, fighting for others and forging relationships. You would call it yours in a different way, and so would Nanashi. Kinda similar, but really not.

However you want to describe it, though, defeating the Ohm will be worth a lot of mana. Probably not as much as I have. But enough to wish everything back and get the good ending.

I hope you're right. But if we do that, its going to take a lot of planning and patience, and there will probably be more than a few deaths.

We've been lucky so far, I don't care what anyone says. We should be more worried.

Hmph. Worried? I don't have anything to worry about. Neither do you.

No, wait, I take that back. You're the sort to worry about other people. Well, THAT I can't help.

I do worry about them. Even if I was strong enough to fight the Ohm and get away I would never do it without making sure the others were safe.

I'm fine with that. It's not something I want cured.

Yeah, I got that impression.

I'll watch out for your ass, but don't think I'll do it for everybody else you worry about! That's probably a lot of people!

I don't keep it a secret!

If you're worried about me, its fine! Let me worry about the other people.

Worried?! I-- I'm Overlord Zetta! I--

Uh-- I only need to watch out for you because... because it would honk Nanashi off if I pulled your butt out of trouble instead of her! Yeah... I don't -- worry.

[identity profile] kaya-waterwave.livejournal.com 2010-10-07 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
You totally know that's not true. Nanashi would probably be defending kids more than...you know, never mind. You're right.

It would make her angry!
badassfreakingoverlord: (all right)

Zetta: not that good at evil. Not that good at being subtle. Or clever.

Anything that shows her up even slightly! Hyaaa ha ha ha ha ha ha!
