... [giggles]

I did. I can't claim much credit for a game that was mostly chance, but it was fairly fun despite that.

[resonantblue]

Th-this is... momentous?

[hold the presses she's pulling out her diary]

You smiled, giggled, and called something fun!

[thinkoutsidethebox]

[...]

That's not really all that unusual. I enjoy games when they're actually games.

[resonantblue]

This must be my first time taking notice of it...

[thinkoutsidethebox]

Then you should be more observant. The fact that my pleasure comes from the ability to humiliate my opponents through intellectual battles should be apparent much more quickly.

[resonantblue]

Hmph. Can one truly call that board game of emotional turmoil an "intellectual battle?"

[thinkoutsidethebox]

Of course not. But I did have a few interesting interactions in the process.

[resonantblue]

Go on.

[thinkoutsidethebox]

Man Eater, from ZRAEL, told me he'd never accept my authority while I had the crown... and then got the collar shortly after, so I made him regret it. I wouldn't normally take advantage of something that cheap, so there was probably some influence on me... But of course, my choice of commands was still mine.

I talked to him afterwards, and it would seem we're kindred spirits in some senses... though, he appears to prefer brute force.

[resonantblue]

He is a strange one... truthfully, it seems like nobody had full control during that game. Even though these course of events do not surprise Silence in the least.

[thinkoutsidethebox]

...We also ended up cuddling for most of the end of the game, for various reasons, so I certainly didn't have full control.

[resonantblue]

That surprises me. No... what surprises me is that you openly shared this.

[thinkoutsidethebox]

It's the truth. As the Witch of Truth, my power is to withstand the truth, no matter what it is. You really don't know me very well.

[resonantblue]

I do not know you at all.

[thinkoutsidethebox]

Well, you need to work more on your powers of observation.

[resonantblue]

[HUFFS, turning her head away]

As if Silence could simply observe that someone is a "Witch of Truth" just by looking at them.

[thinkoutsidethebox]

Not that, obviously. But some parts of my personality should definitely be apparent.

[resonantblue]

...that is true. You are analytical and honest. You have no issue relaying your thoughts, no matter how cruel, so long as they do not expose any vulnerability. Right?
