WHO: anyone
WHERE: anywhere
WHEN: Day 9, morning through to late afternoon

[well there's still new landmarks to explore, new teammates (and new ragged individuals) to meet. occasional gunfire's been resounding through the woods sometimes, scaring birds up into the air and sending wandering pygmidillos in the meadow askitter.

what are you up to this fine day?]

That...sounds pretty serious. Are you okay?

[rugpull]

I'm twaumatized.

[mykidisthebest]

. . .

As a perfect stranger I can only offer a judgement-free zone if you wanna cry.

[rugpull]

I have never cried ever.

[mykidisthebest]

That sounds like a bit of an exaggeration.

[rugpull]

Never ever!

[mykidisthebest]

I know a shameless lie when I hear one!

[rugpull]

From ME?

[mykidisthebest]

[very seriously]

From you. If you're not careful that can bite you in the butt one day.

[rugpull]

HOW?

[mykidisthebest]

[taps his black collar]

All of us with black collars have an ability that makes people tell the truth. If you say too obvious of a lie, someone might decide to make you tell the truth instead.

[rugpull]

Well that's gross. Don't do that.

[mykidisthebest]

I won't unless you give me a reason to.

[rugpull]

Okay okay.

I have the magic power of punching you.

[mykidisthebest]

The last time I used it on someone I got stabbed with a stick. Try to think of something more intimidating than just a punch.

[rugpull]

I promise ya I can do a lotta damage.

[mykidisthebest]

Do you have super strength or just think you can hit really hard?

[rugpull]

I wonder.

[mykidisthebest]

This feels like a trick. Punch me in the shoulder.

[rugpull]

Yer not the bossa me.

[mykidisthebest]

Then I'm forced to make my own assumptions about your strength.

[100% convinced he's got noddle arms]

[rugpull]

That's fine you being dumb ain't hurt me none.
