[There's a video playing. There's no one speaking, but the audio is the sound of small monkeys chittering, as three plump little monkey-like creatures dance in front of the magi-comms camera. While no explanation is given, these creatures are demons known as the three wise monkeys.]

[While characters have they option of closing the video right away, those who watch for more than ten seconds will be affected by their power, forcing them to tell the truth. They may not even be aware that they're being so forthcoming until the effects wear off, and may even spontaneously reveal things that were not asked.]

My, you've all had a hell of a time recently, haven't you. I do hope most of you are on the mend now, yes? So why don't we play a little game?

I think after last month, it would be better for us refugees to get to know one another better!

Oh, that's enough stalling! So why don't you pick, hm?

Truth or Dare?



[ooc: It's a game canon truth or dare meme! Post your top-levels and tag around! Feel free to decide how honest the monkey's power forces them to be, if at all! The effects won't last longer than an hour after they put their magi-comm down.]

Sure. I need something to keep me occupied.
Truth.

[soakedinvinegar]

When did you realize you had a soulmate?

(( Yes, he's texting even though he's probably right beside Zishu. ))

[fated_dance]

[ Really, Lao Wen? He spares his lover an exasperated look but obliges by texting back. ]

I knew when I saw you. Before that, it was only a fantasy.

[soakedinvinegar]

(( He's making a face of exaggerated shock at Zishu. ))

Then you knew before I did.

[fated_dance]

[ Don't make him smack you, Lao Wen :| ]

I denied it for a while. But you wouldn't leave me alone.

[soakedinvinegar]

(( How can you be so cruel, A-Xu? ))

Aloof men love clingy women.

[fated_dance]

[ It comes naturally~ This answer makes him snort, shoving playfully at his soulmate. ]

I was not aware you were a woman, Lao Wen.

[soakedinvinegar]

Am I not pretty enough?

[fated_dance]

You are pretty enough for me.

[soakedinvinegar]

(( Kexing smiles and leans against his soulmate with a contented smile. ))

Would you still love me if I actually were a woman?

[fated_dance]

[ He chuckles softly and shifts to make the position more comfortable. ]

Idiot. You know I would.

[soakedinvinegar]

I do know it.

[fated_dance]

[ Well then. He's just going to steal a kiss! ]

Good.

If you could travel anywhere, where would you go?

[fated_dance]

The Four Seasons Manor. I would have to rebuild it, because before coming here it was burned down before me.

[gentledawn]

A-Shu, I'm so sorry. What was it like? It sounds like it would be a warm home.

[fated_dance]

It was a lesson. Prince Jin didn't want me to have it to run back to.

But it was beautiful. There are flowers that bloom in all four seasons. Even standing neglected for years, it was still beautiful when I was able to return.

[gentledawn]

I can't agree with a lesson so cruel.

And it can be beautiful again. I am certain you will rebuild it and it will be filled with those you love once more.

[fated_dance]

No. You are much too kind.

That is my hope, once everything is done.

[gentledawn]

Did he hurt you in any other way?

Enjoy the flowers for me.

[fated_dance]

You saw what he had done to me.

I will.

[gentledawn]

I thought I remembered you saying his name. I do not care for him.

Do any of the trees bloom?

[fated_dance]

I did. And I remember asking you to let me deal with him, should he have the misfortune of coming here.

Yes. Many of them do. There are many colors, regardless of the season.

[gentledawn]

That will be difficult for me, but I will respect your wishes.

The perfect place for A-Shu and A-Xing to call home.

[fated_dance]

I know. Thank you.

Yes. It's a very peaceful place. It will be nice to rebuild, and restart the clan.
