Liar Liar, pants on fire

[artistwithasickness]

Oh yeah, time for a meme. Apparently this is our first one. What a tragedy.

You know what we got in this City? A bunch of repressed people, who are far too comfortable behind their masks of lies and half truths. Let's have some fun with that, shall we? A la 'Liar Liar', your character is compelled to tell the truth. The whole truth. Lies of omission are still lies.

Rules are simple
1. Post with your character.
2. Respond to questions, or avoid answering statements.
3. Go make other characters uncomfortable by poking into their personal business.

What is there about you that you think would change my feelings for you so completely? Unless everything you've shown me of yourself is a lie, I think I know you fairly well by now.

[dirtyandtrue]

It's half a lie. It's an echo of the man I used to be. It's an echo of humanity.

I have slaughtered more humans in more ways than I care to count. I will slaughter hundreds.. thousands more. And I won't feel a thing for them. I don't.

[theycalledmeacurse]

Why did you kill them? Why will you kill more?

I'm not trying to pretend you aren't what you are, I'm just trying to understand.

[dirtyandtrue]

There are too many bodies and too many stories to each to lay out a list of my real crimes. But my sister forced me to some, some I chose to do for my status in the society, some I've killed for no reason other then scuffing my shoe. Hookers, shopkeepers, high society women; I've killed people by addiction and neglect and I will continue to do so to survive. There are more of you then one can count in a day; the herd must be culled by something.

I've known many people who committed terrible crimes in order to survive. I've loved a good number of them. There is always more to every story than we like to admit, and I don't think you're any different in that respect.

[dirtyandtrue]

Did they and do they still enjoy them?

[theycalledmeacurse]

Some of them did, before the war. Things changed after that for the most part.

[dirtyandtrue]

I don't know if you could, if you knew what I've done. What I continue to do. There's always a note about alternate choices, in the end. 'Better' choices.

Do you think you're a monster, Matthew?

[dirtyandtrue]

Yes, of course. The most stylish, but in the end, I am what I am.

[theycalledmeacurse]

You might have monstrous tendencies, and you might do some monstrous things, but I've known real monsters before. Maybe I'm an idiot living in denial, but I don't count you among them.

[dirtyandtrue]

You're a sweet woman.
