For all that's true, for all you do

[ A note goes up on the fridge shortly after Chie signs the chicken petition on Monday: ]



[ Come 6 pm, she has prepared some coffee and tea so people can have something to drink while watching the shenanigans that will happen, as well as hot sauce as penalty for refusing a dare. So come here and have fun, y'all. ]

[ Byakuren doesn't really find the prospect of this game fun, but hey, an excuse for murder not to...be a thing. She's sitting here silently with her hands folded underneath her chin, if anyone wants her. ]

[nankurunaisa]

[Hey, Hibiki's kind of into this because she's a competitive person.]

Truth or dare? Which one's it gonna be?

[forgottenmagia]

Truth, I suppose.

[ unless it's a silly harmless dare ]

[nankurunaisa]

Alright! I'm not gonna hold back! Let's see...

[It sounds ominous, but Hibiki is a good girl. Most of the time.]

What's your favorite animal? Ah, wait, no, your top three!

[Answer before she changes it to "top ten," please.]

[forgottenmagia]

[ ...this girl really loves animals doesn't she ]

Top three? Ah, let's see...tigers, [ definitely no bias there, nope ]] snakes, and butterflies.

[nankurunaisa]

Hehe! Snakes are great pets, aren't they? They're so handsome and just the right amount of chubby...they're perfect!

...I can't say I've ever had a tiger as a pet, though.

[forgottenmagia]

Do you have many pets besides Hamuzou and Inumi?

[ that's fucking cute as hell. she's so happy talking about her animals. ]

Ah, I don't have any, myself, though I do live with someone who is a bit...tiger-like.

[nankurunaisa]

I do! There's my parrot, my cat, my rabbit, my pig, my alligator, my chipmunk, my flying squirrel, and Hebika, my snake!

[someone stop her before she starts adopting sharks]

Someone tiger-like? What do you mean? Like a beast-tamer from a magician's show?

backtags this into forever.........

[forgottenmagia]

My, you've racked up a whole zoo, haven't you.

[ ... ]

No, rather, she's a tiger, herself...sort of.

let's backtag forever and then I can drop off a Byakuren coin when no one expects it

[nankurunaisa]

Actually, there's a frilled lizard I'm lookin' at...how does Tokarou sound for a name? Perfect, right?

[Always room for one more!]

...You live with a tiger?! That's...that's...so cool!

/o/

[forgottenmagia]

It would most definitely go swimmingly with your theme.

Well, she can't turn into a tiger anymore, but she's a tiger in spirit.

[nankurunaisa]

Right, right? If he's still there when we get out [●︿●], maybe I'll finally take him home.

[But...okay, well, let's just go with it.]

A tiger spirit, huh? So...so kind of like...Undyne, maybe? Or Youko?

[how do monsters]

[forgottenmagia]

Like Youko-san, yes, she's a youkai. Although, she embodies the fear of tigers rather than tigers themselves.

[ If Hibiki knew what youkai were already that'd be easier to explain ]

[nankurunaisa]

Why would anyone be afraid of a tiger? They're adorable.

[She's Japanese! She knows what youkai are. Just. Not quite to the extent that they're real.]

[forgottenmagia]

[ Look y'all are from a thousand years in the future, who knows ]

Because tigers aren't native to our home--no one knew what they were like, and had to rely on legends from the West.

[nankurunaisa]

And what kinda legends were they? If they were paintin' bad pictures of tigers, they're bad people! Sure, they're wild, but they're also fluffy...and their stripes are so cute...and their paws are so fat...

[forgottenmagia]

Not necessarily. If you'd never seen such an animal before, imagine your reaction--they're quite large, with sharp claws and locking jaws, at the very top of their food chain--and hunters provoking them probably didn't help with the impression of aggression; they can easily kill humans if pushed into a corner.

[ she shrugs ]

But the truth is slowly becoming more widespread...that's what makes it more difficult for her to shift into her tiger form.

[blazeit]

[ 50% doing this because of the sad irony of this being the only time he would've interacted with her....

Anyway, here he is. One last person and then his dare is over. And then he can go back to his room and change from the skirt his wearing back into pants and call it a Night. ]

Hey, so. I know we've like, never talked, but can I have your hand for a moment?

[forgottenmagia]

[ I am all for sad irony ]

My hand...? [ why tho ] You aren't going to do anything strange to it, I trust?

[blazeit]

Not really, just kinda touch it for a moment.

[ With his lips. That would've probably been an important distinction to make... ]

[forgottenmagia]

[ s q u i n t s

But she holds out her hand. ]

[blazeit]

[ He grabs her hand, then dips his head to press his lips to the back of her hand for a second or two before letting go. ]

There, I'm done.

[forgottenmagia]

[ She just sort of looks at him with wide eyes for a moment before retracting her hand. ]

...I see.

[ that was in the general realm of what she was expecting but still ]

I...hope that helped...?

[blazeit]

It did, actually. I'm almost done with this dumb dare.

[ Kissquest 2k15 continues on, no slaps yet, he's feeling pretty good about getting this done. ]

[forgottenmagia]

[ She's not vindictive enough to slap someone over something as harmless as a kiss to the hand, tbh. ]

Well, best of luck, darling. ...Katsuki-kun, was it?
