009 [Typed]: Honesty

[tin_miss]

It is interesting to see so many people being uninhibited in speaking the truth. Has some sort of psychoactive been administered to everyone in the compound? Or is this yet another of the inexplicable phenomena typically termed "magic

I assume it's one of those phenomena things, yeah.

I'm affected by it, definitely, but in some cases the importance of the few things I go out of my way to hide manages to overpower the effects. This whole thing is little more than an annoyance to me, really.

And potentially an embarassment, if someone asks the right questions.

Interesting. Is the information you are still capable of concealing of personal importance, or would revealing it cause a security breach of some manner?

Embarrassment seems an inconvenient emotion to possess.

[invisible_trick]

I suppose you could say personal importance, although it's... more... acting as a shield for other people. Hiding certain info in case it hurts someone.

And yeah, embarassment is a very inconvenient emotion to possess sometimes. The fear of it can cause people to be destructive, needlessly needlessly so.

[tin_miss]

I understand. You are a protector.

It takes very little to push people into becoming needlessly destructive. Perhaps it is an integral part of their nature.

Some of us have long practiced the art of lying with complete honesty. So unfortunate for those who get by on lies~

[tin_miss]

You consider this an accomplishment?

[wicked_finesse]

I should think rarely telling lies to people would be quite an accomplishment.

There are many people who rarely lie. It is possible a few of them may even be honest.
