Deception for Fun and Profit, Monday, Period 2
Bond had set set up a class room with the tables dragged out to the walls and the chairs set up in a circle in the empty space. As the students arrived he directed them to take a seat.
"Good morning," he said, once they'd all arrived. "I'm Professor Bond, and this is Deception for Fun and Profit. Now, assuming there were no paperwork errors, you're all in this class because for whatever reason you have an interest in fooling people, which means for our first class we're going to do the traditional introductions a bit differently.
"Normally this is the part were I'd ask you for your names, classes, and various other questions, usually why you're taking the class, or what experience you have related to the subject at hand. No, I'm still going to do that, but you're going to lie, then the rest of the class and I will attempt to catch you out. Though given everyone but me will be lying, I expect you to do it subtly, so as not to open yourself to counter-accusations."
He pointed at a random student. "You first. Name, class, what you did over the summer, and how you ended up in this class."

RE: Introductions - DFP [01]
That would require Marti to remember she had a daughter, and Chester would laugh his ass off if someone told him Ada needed a class on lying.

"Professional development," Ada deadpaned, reaching back to brush her hair behind her ear...and producing a half-dollar between her fingers before making it vanish again. "I'm a barker and scout for the Miller Family Carnival."

That wasn't a yes on telling the truth. At all.

"So they'll let you return?"

"A town decides you're trouble, there go the next five stops after them, because they tell their friends, and their friends tell their friends, and then you need to find a whole new route with people who haven't seen you before or heard of you."
Re: Introductions - DFP [01]
Note that he did not say honest.
