crystal, slightly backdated.

FORM: Crystal
SENDER: Bastien
RECIPIENT: Everyone
NOTES: Backdated to right after truth soup. Threadjack away.

Alors... Are we good?

[ Bastien already made sure privately. For the sake of showmanship, however, ]

Kirkwall is beautiful. Riftwatchers always get along.

—I think we are good.

But to be sure, everyone tell me some lies.

[thereneverwas]

I've decided to quit drinking.

[a pause]

Oh, thank fuck.

[cozen]

[ Laughing, ]

Speaking of things that make you spill your guts.

[doggish]

That was the most fun I've had in ages, and I cannot wait to be forced via magic to be painfully and embarrassingly honest no matter the consequences.

Fasta vass.

[cozen]

Sorry, I cannot tell if you have been cured or not. [ Joking. ] Try another.

[bouchonne]

I’m the best-looking member of Riftwatch.

[cozen]

Oh no. You are still affected.

[muckspout]

Love nothing more than a lavender scented bath. You are a rude, rude man.

[Thinks for a moment.]

Poor people deserve what they get because they don't work hard.

[cozen]

[ The first gets a hum, the second a little laugh, the third a gasp. ]

That's a lie?

bone dry

[youwonscience]

There aren't enough single, age-appropriate women in Riftwatch, I'm going to give up and finally try dating men.

Re: bone dry

[cozen]

Ooh, [ like a shudder at this horror. ] Desperate times.

—have you never tried?

[notathreat]

Beat me to it.

[sprent]

Couldn't have picked a better week to arrive.

[cozen]

Just for you, a shortcut to getting to know us all.

[foolsmakeitcolder]

The griffons look like they would taste incredible.

[cozen]

No?

[ After a moment of consideration, ]

No. But you would get to be the only person alive who's ever tried it.

[notathreat]

I can't wait to get married and move to Orlais.

[cozen]

There is nothing wrong with Orlais.

[ While they're telling lies. ]

[armd]

I can't bench 205 pounds.

[cozen]

[ Bench?????

But he figures it out. ]

Do you think you could, [ pause for weird word usage, ] bench me?

[charmoffensive]

Kirkwall isn't that bad. Even looks-wise.

I mean, I'm not actually lying, I was just chiming in. That's also not a lie. And that. Fuck.

[cozen]

[ He laughs; he's still laughing a little when he says, ]

It's so grey.

[staysail]

I've convinced Yseult to go for another joint beach date, and she's excited about it.

[cozen]

[ Ha ha ha that actually stings a tiny little bit. Like an ant bite. No big deal, but very good that he is no longer feeling a compulsion to announce how he's feeling.

Rather: laughter. Ha ha ha. ]

Unfortunately, they are for birthdays only. She will have to wait.

[favoriteanalyst]

I've decided to renounce the Maker and join a cult dedicated to the Avvar spirits.

Well. Thank the Maker for that. Everyone can come out of hiding now.

Heard a rumor it was something in the soup. Tell me someone's figured out what happened, else we might all want to avoid whatever comes out of the kitchens for a bit.

[cozen]

The soup betrayed me?
