Okay! We've got a few more newbies so the mandatory ice breaker game is two truths and two lies! Say two things about yourself that are true and two that are a lie, and then everyone else well try and guess which ones are the lies. Got it?

I'll go first:

My blood is yellow.
I was hatched with four eyes and four horns.
Purple is my favorite color.
I'm a wanted criminal on my home planet.

[OOC: Respond with your own truths and lies and answer each other, or ask Psi about his. Threadjacking is encouraged!]

Duuuuuuuude. [allow him a moment of awed silence] There really are all sorts of different kinds of people here!! Wow...

Oh yeah! The game. [he hums thoughtfully]

My cat is over two hundred years old...
I have the COOLEST sword...
My best subject is math...
And I'm the half-human son of Satan!

Hehehe, I bet you'll never guess.

[dorkypantsuit]

Yeah, and we get more all the time.

[That's the best part of being in the carnival, in fact.]

But I'll guess your best subject is math is a lie.

[flashover]

Oh man! You're right about that one. But that's the easy one. As for you.... hmm... I bet... I bet purple really isn't your favorite color!

[dorkypantsuit]

You got it right in one. Guess that means we're tied.

So, are you really half human?

[It's gotta be that, or the cat.]

[flashover]

That one's the truth! I have a tail and stuff! ... Ah, I guess that's not that special here, though.

[dorkypantsuit]

You're right, it's a little more common, but it's pretty unique to be born with one. So what's a satan then?

[flashover]

Well, I wasn't born with it... I got it... woah, almost a year ago now! Crazy.

Anyway... he's not "a" Satan, he's "The Satan". There's only one. The bible says he was once an angel, the most beautiful and beloved by God. Then I guess he got pissed off about how God was treating humans better than angels or something? And he rebelled against God, and God cast him out of Heaven. I don't know how much of that is true, but Satan now is the king of the other world, Gehenna, and the lord of demons. He kills humans and uses demons for his own gain without a second thought.

[dorkypantsuit]

How did you get it? Another magic carnival?


...Sounds like your dad has some issues.

[flashover]

No. A magic sword. Turns out my demon powers were sealed when I was baby, in the sheath of a cool sword... I had to draw it and my demon side came out.

Tch... Just cause he's my "father", doesn't make him my dad. He's a jerk and I'm going to put a stop to him.

[spaghettimonster]

Satan as in that Satan??

[Books fall into the underground and boy, that name shows up in a lot of the older ones. Not as a good guy, either!]

[flashover]

The one and only! ... Well, I guess there might be other Satans? But the one where I'm from is definitely an asshole. And one day, when I'm strong enough, I'm gonna kill him.

[spaghettimonster]

Wow!

...There's a lot of people talking about killing on the radio today. Is he the kind of asshole who hurts lots of other people?

[Not that he's going to judge Rin for planning on murder either way, but it's an important kind of thing to say, when you announce something like that.]

[flashover]

[man, he hadn't even realized how... easily that came out of his mouth. Killing someone! To a person who has no idea who Satan is or what he's done, it may sound really drastic]

... It's... not really something I'd wanna talk about in public like this, where everyone can hear. But he killed at least a hundred innocent people in one night. So... yeah, pretty much the biggest jerk there is.

[spaghettimonster]

That's a lot of people. The one I heard about, in stories back home... really isn't one for making friends! No wonder you want to stop him.

[If they just politely avoid the word kill, then everything is hunky-dory.]

[flashover]

Yeah! So! I'm gonna stop him! ... As soon as I get done paying off my debt here!

[spaghettimonster]

Your debt?? What, you're not here to get help or train??

[flashover]

No... I got tricked by the shadow guys...

[puddingemote]

No one's best subject is math.

[Math is the worst.]

[flashover]

I don't know! My bro is pretty good at math! ... I don't know if it's his best subject, though. That's probably demon farmercollege-y.

[puddingemote]

Demon farmerco- ...what?

[flashover]

Like medicine and herbs! For uh... poisoning evil demons and curing demonic diseases and things! Doctor meister stuff. Definitely not my strong suit.

[puddingemote]

Sounds hard.

Were you fighting demons a lot?

[flashover]

Yeah! My brother and I are Exorcists! [well. Yukio is an Exorcist. Rin is still in training]

[puddingemote]

Like in that scary movie? Do people spin their heads around?

[flashover]

There's a movie?! Ah-- no, I've never seen anyone spin their head around. It's actually pretty rare for humans to be possessed by demons. Mostly they possess animals and objects...
