[ If you've met Yuuki before, there might be something unsettlingly familiar about the girl who's currently curled up in one corner of a sofa. She's utterly absorbed in the contents of the file folder she's got balanced on her legs, until she flips the folder shut and looks up, as if trying to memorize something-- and then her face falls, abruptly. ]

Aw, you're kidding me!

[ She brightens up again quickly, though, tucking the folder under the cushion and addressing the Room at large. ]

Hey, let's play a game. Like, truth or dare, or the question game, or something? Please?

[he even laughs a bit, because everything about that is objectively hilarious.] I'll take truth again.

[catchabreak]

Do you have any secret talents?

[stormbelow]

What do you mean, secret talents?

[catchabreak]

I don't know, if you can like, run up a wall and do a backflip or if you're secretly a really excellent singer or you can memorize anything after reading it once or just... stuff like that?

[stormbelow]

I'm pretty sure most vampires can run up a wall and do a backflip, so I guess that doesn't count.

But, I suppose yes, I do have some secret talents.

[catchabreak]

Well, what are your secret talents, then?

[stormbelow]

I'm sorry, I'm pretty sure you only get one question per Truth, Yuuki. Truth or dare?

[catchabreak]

That's unfair, you're such a stickler for rules.

Dare.

[stormbelow]

It's not my fault you're asking the wrong questions. I dare you to shave your head.

[catchabreak]

[ Shock and horror. ] No. No way. [ She drinks. ]

Truth or dare?

[stormbelow]

[he grins -- that one was just to make sure she does actually drink something tonight.]

Mmm... eh, dare.

[catchabreak]

[ somewhat triumphantly: ] I dare you to tell me about your secret talents.

[stormbelow]

[ehhhh, he's sort of seriously regarding his drink right now...]

[catchabreak]

What, are they embarrassing or something?

[stormbelow]

No, they're-- [--sigh. maybe they're a little embarrassing, although he hates to think of it like that. it's just... been a really long time.]

...when I was still alive, I was a... street performer. In Tokyo, before it was Tokyo. My "secret talents" have to do with that, basically.

[catchabreak]

Oh. That's pretty cool, actually. What did you do?

--Or, that's another question, isn't it. Just kidding. Truth.

[stormbelow]

All right. What do you want to be when you grow up?

[catchabreak]

[ A grin. ] I try not to think about it too much.

[ She takes a sip of her drink, because that's not entirely truthful, but then she changes her mind and adds, after a delay, ] Happy. Less... conflicted, I guess.

Truth or dare?

[stormbelow]

[greh, he wanted to ask more questions! apparently not agreeing to the question game was just downright silly of him.] Truth.

[catchabreak]

[ At least this way Yuuki will actually tell the truth? ] What would you do if... laws didn't apply to you for a day?

[stormbelow]

Human, vampire, or physics?

[catchabreak]

Well, I was going for human and vampire, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to throw physics in there too.

[stormbelow]

... [shrug.] I don't know. I'd say nothing different, really. Maybe fly.

--does time travel count as a law of physics?

[catchabreak]

I guess, sure? I mean, there's definitely enough stuff in physics related to time.

[stormbelow]

Then I'd go back in time.
