[The tablet you have beeps with a message. When you open it up, it's a live video feed of a certain mascot rabbit. She adjusts the camera a tiny bit before smiling sweetly and backing away to give off more of a view of herself.]
Welcome, people not of Svelte! It's so wonderful to be able to talk to you all! Never have I ever imagined I'd get the ability to make so many new friends.
But that's the thing. We aren't really friends, are we? And I've noticed that many of you seem really scared or sad or angry or stressed out. That's not really any way to go about life, even if we're trapped here! That's why I have prepared a little motive for you all, one that would strengthen our bonds and bring us all closer together!
It's two truths and one lie! Now, a lie is usually seen as a bad thing, but in this case, I wholeheartedly forgive you! You can go around and do this to whoever you like, even me! And we'd have to guess which is the lie~! Doesn't that seem like a fun activity~? Love, love~
So! To start things off, I will be giving two truths and one lie to all of you!
I've always been called Usami!
I live on an island called Jabberwock Island!
I defeated many scary robotic beasts!
It's up to you to decide which are truths and which is the lie. Good luck, have fun, and never fall into despair!

[That is certainly a bunny. In a very frilly outfit that Rich is trying not to wrinkle his nose at. He tries to focus more on what the rabbit appears to be saying.]
I mean, those all sound equally bizarre to me, but if one of them has to be a lie... Is it the part about the island?
[Names are changed in rare instances, and as much as he doubts this bunny's strength, she probably comes from a world where she can handle herself.]
[Private Video]
Nope, that's not it! I was born there. Svelte is the first time I've ever left Jabberwock Isle!
It's nice to meet you. I'm Magical Miracle Girl ★ Usami. AKA Usami!
[Private Video]
[Maybe not important. He'll brush it off and switch his feed to public.]
Anyways, my name is Rich. Rich Goranski. Two truths and a lie, then...
My favourite band is Green Day, the instrument I can play is guitar, and my favourite soda is Dr. Pepper. Do those work?
[Video]
Yes. That works! Even small, insignificant facts like those can bring people together, even if it doesn't seem that way.
My guess is that your favorite soda is something different!
[Video]
Not quite. I actually like Dr. Pepper. It's a lot better than the Mountain Dew Red everyone keeps giving me.
[Even if it's probably better to be safe, it still tastes gross!]
[Video]
[Usami doesn't want to insult Rich by saying he's no good at the guitar, so.]
[Video]
[He beams, though he looks a little sheepish.]
Was that cheating? Sorry, I didn't know what to say exactly.
Re: [Video]
[Usami's glad she didn't have to insult Rich!]
It was still a lie, even if it was a misleading lie. Anyway, I know of someone who's a musician. She's not really famous yet, but her name is Ibuki Mioda.
Do you enjoy playing the guitar and drums?
no subject
[He looks a little flustered, but he nods eagerly.]
Yeah, honestly. I haven't played in a long time, but picking up the guitar again has been great. It's a nice outlet for everything I'm dealing with, you know?
no subject
Can I hear you play?
[An honest question. Not trying to put Rich on the spot, but she'd still like to hear it.]
no subject
[Particularly when there aren't a lot of people around, but he feels kind of bad telling this weird little rabbit that he's too embarrassed to play for her.]
no subject
The park sounds like a wonderful place! We should definitely meet up there.
no subject
[It'll definitely be one of his weirder audience members, but he'll deal with it.]
[Video] -> [Action]
[Usami switches off her tablet and heads off to the park. She's the first one there, but will gladly wait for Rich. When he approaches, Usami will wave to him. Usami doesn't have her music going for the music will be supplied by Rich.]
no subject
Hey! Okay, fair warning that I didn't get to play for a while, so I'm probably a little rusty still, even if I've been trying to practice.
[He takes a seat on the bench, tuning a few of the strings.]
But I can play you a request, or just some of my favourites.
no subject
no subject
[It was only a matter of time before he played this one again. It's classic and simple, and a good warm up for him.]
un: $devilbreaker
but ok ill bite
ive got a collection of devil arms back home
i ride on rockets for fun
my last job had me want to punch a talking bird constantly
as for your three
have you always been named usami?
[Perma Private Video]
Correct! You got it on the first try! I once had a different name, but I didn't like it. It's so wonderful to see people doing this with so much enthusiasm.
Hmm...
[Usami thinks that riding on rockets is worrisome... unless it's something like a space rocket. She also doesn't know what devil arms are, but it'd make sense to be some collectible toy. So the answer would be...]
Could your lie be that you didn't want to punch the bird?
no subject
I can get wanting a different name if you don't like what you've been given. I mean, your choice and all that, yeah? It's important.
[Though Nero's face visibly lights up on her guess, and he actually chuckles.]
That's actually not a lie, I wanted to barbecue that damn bird more than once. Almost punched him, too. Good guess though.
no subject
But... why? Violence is a no-no!
[She could unserstand killing a chicken for meat, but when things start talking? Nope.]
no subject
Violence is only a thing when demons start stuff. Otherwise I'm usually not the type to pick fights. Not anymore.
[Though Griffon? Man, that bird really liked to push his buttons just because he found it funny.]
Let's just say that the bird was a demon, and he really liked being an asshole to just about everyone.

$flamingbi
those are all super weirdbut ridingon rockets for fun? maybe?
no subject
its a rocket and i ride it
also use it to kill demons but ykw
its part of the job
i have fun with it
no subject
okay yeah thats extra weird
riding on one of your arms is
definitely a choice but okay
guess the lie is that you have a collection of demon arms?
i guess if you kill them you want nothing to do with em
or you just wanna collect their heads or something gross
no subject
i mean its fun as shit
like being on a skateboard but you fly instead
good way to punch the hell out of a demon
yeah thats the lie but
okay so devil arms actually arent REAL arms in my place
basically if you kick a demons ass theyve got two options
one they die
or two they decide to give up in the fight and turn themselves into a weapon you can use
and someone i know has a hugeass collection
my uncle
ive fought him a few times with different ones and he really enjoys them
no subject
okay you have sold me on that
rocket powered skateboard sounds rad as hell
i just cant imagine riding an arm like a skateboard
but i guess arms are weird where you're from anyways
so what kinds of weapons can these demon arms turn into?
no subject
brought it with me and honestly its real fun to ride
uhhhhhh a lot?
like im trying to remember all the shit i fought against
gauntlets
swords
a suitcase that could turn into a fuckload of gun forms
a motorcycle
loads of shit
no subject
i think id like to try it
sounds like i could do some rad kickflips on it
your world is definitely one of the weirdest ive heard of though
like id love an arm that could turn into a motorcycle but im also pretty content leaving that in a shonen anime
where it belongs
no subject
most of my arms are meant specifically for me
but i dont mind you trying so long as im around to make sure you dont run into problems
like slamming into a wall or something
oh no dude like its not an arm that turns into a motorcycle?
it IS a motorcycle
it just can split in half and be wielded like a weapon
bc it is
devil arms take whatever form they want
you rarely get one as an actual ARM or whatever
no subject
wait wait then why can your arm turn into a hoverboard
from what i assume is an arm
while the demon arms turn into vehicles and weapons but never into arms?
i dont think i understand the world rules
which probably means if i did try to ride one i would slam into a wall
damn
no subject
its man-made
probably lost you at this point right?
yeah i totally get how youd get lost
dont worry about it tho
deals still up to try the rocket arm for free and all that
nah if you got me there youll probably be a pro in no time
im good at keeping an eye on things
no subject
sorry man
my world is mainly normal except for some weird underground tech
so im still learning to navigate some stuff
sounds like a lot of fun to learn tho
ill definitely have to take u up on that soon
no subject
no worries
sure
you cant miss me if you ever see me
white hair and a robot arm usually

"And as in uffish thought he stood / the Jabberwock, with eyes of flame"...
That Jabberwock? I'm going to guess that one's the lie.
[Private Video]
Nope! That is not the right answer. I actually do live on Jabberwock Isle, though I don't really hear that poem be referenced all that much.
no subject
Oh, that's a shame. I think Mr Carroll is a phenomenal new writer.
