[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.]

... Snezhnaya is a nation of perpetual winter storms. It's not for the faint of heart, and if you aren't terribly careful, you'll probably die.
[ Still, though. He sounds fond over it. ]
My father used to take me out ice-fishing. It's among some of my fondest memories, growing up.

[It's so strange for Shell to hear about a human feeling that way, given the suddenly shift to a colder climate is what caused most of their kind to die out during the apocalypse back home. But he can see the fondness in Childe's
otherwise soullesseyes.]Ice... fishing? What's that?
[...he's asking what fishing is too, for the record.]

But Childe doesn't comment, and instead moves into explaining without a second thought. Lifting his hands, he makes a sawing gesture in a circular motion. ]
Since the lakes are always frozen over, when the storms die down it's the only opportunity you get to go fishing. You basically set up a little tent - just in case of blizzards - and you cut a hole in the ice, through which you stick your line. Because you don't have much range in casting, you have to sit and wait for the fish to come to you.
It can take as long as a few minutes to even hours at a time. Nothing but the wind at your backs and the cold biting at your nose... it's a perfect way to build up your endurance and your patience, and nowadays is a good chance for me to reflect on my techniques in combat. There's nothing that can quite compare.
