Lying and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them, Class #3

"Hello!" Jarod waved to the gathered students. The bandage was gone from his head, but the stitches were still visible. "Today we'll be learning about how to keep a secret, and I mean a real secret here, one that someone's life is depending on, by telling the truth."

"The kicker here is that someone will be asking you questions, trying to find out what the secret is. It's your job to answer their questions as completely as possible, but to still keep that secret. Then you'll switch. You'll each pick a secret of your own, and write it down on a piece of paper before you start. Then, your partner will write down what they think the secret is when they're finished, and show it to you. I'm trusting you to tell them if they got it right."

"Also, please feel free to have some coffee, juice, fruit, and bagels," he gestured at the table behind him.

[ooc: No Jarod until 6 pm EST, pair up and have fun!]

"Too bad. Pets are awesome," Cameron tried to think unsexy thoughts. "Every had surgery?"

Tyler tapped the side of his face, where traces of his gunshot wound were just barely visible. "They did some work to minimize the scarring on this," he said. "Nothing else, really. And that's not it."

Cameron went quiet, but it was hard to say if he was contemplating the secret or the scars. "Okay, so it's from before Fandom High, it doesn't involve your friends, any girls or sex and it's unsexy."

He scratched the back of his head as he pondered things. He decided to go for a different tactic. "Why is it a secret? What do you think would happen if someone found out?"

"There'd be a whole new thing to tease me about," Tyler said. "That's about it. It's not my deepest darkest secret or anything. Veronica Mars already broadcast those."

"So it's just embarrassing?" Cameron had the feeling Veronica would be a lot better at this guessing game. "Ugly underwear?"

"Probably depends on your perspective. It would embarass me. And no, not ugly underwear."

"Got any tattoos?" Cameron asked and sighed. "I'm way off, aren't I?"

"Wrong solar system," Tyler agreed amiably. "Do you want to keep going, or should we trade?"

Re: Class Assignment

"We can trade for a while, maybe I'll get some inspiration," Cameron said, somehow doubting it.

"Okay," Tyler said.

"So is your secret about girls?"

Re: Class Assignment

[identity profile] cameronmitchell.livejournal.com 2006-07-24 03:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh man. "Yeah, I guess it sort of involves a girl."

Re: Class Assignment

[identity profile] tyler-gone.livejournal.com 2006-07-24 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Tyler blinked. He hadn't expected to get a hit so quickly. "Molly?"

Re: Class Assignment

[identity profile] cameronmitchell.livejournal.com 2006-07-24 03:36 pm (UTC)(link)
"Nope," Cameron said relieved as he hoped the rest wouldn't be so eaasy to guess.

Re: Class Assignment

[identity profile] tyler-gone.livejournal.com 2006-07-24 03:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm. "Is it someone from here, or someone you know from back home?"

Re: Class Assignment

[identity profile] cameronmitchell.livejournal.com 2006-07-24 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)
"Neither actually," Cameron admitted.

Re: Class Assignment

[identity profile] tyler-gone.livejournal.com 2006-07-24 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
That was interesting. "Is it someone you like romantically, or just a person who happens to be female?"

Re: Class Assignment

[identity profile] cameronmitchell.livejournal.com 2006-07-24 04:05 pm (UTC)(link)
That was hard to answer. "The latter mostly, although the being female part probably helps."

Re: Class Assignment

[identity profile] tyler-gone.livejournal.com 2006-07-24 04:11 pm (UTC)(link)
A girl, not in Fandom, not from home, not a girlfriend... Probably. Yet.

The next question was something that would have sounded crazy to him before Fandom, but in this place it was worth asking. "Crazy question, but do you see her in your future?"

Re: Class Assignment

[identity profile] cameronmitchell.livejournal.com 2006-07-24 04:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Cameron couldn't help but laugh a little. "Nah, man. I highly doubt it."

Re: Class Assignment

[identity profile] tyler-gone.livejournal.com 2006-07-24 04:15 pm (UTC)(link)
So there went that theory. "So you know her now?" He thought about it. "If she walked in right now, would she recognize you?"

Re: Class Assignment

[identity profile] cameronmitchell.livejournal.com 2006-07-24 04:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Cameron shook his head. "No, she wouldn't."

Re: Class Assignment

[identity profile] tyler-gone.livejournal.com 2006-07-24 04:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Tyler grinned, thinking he had it. "So this is, like, you have a crush on Katie Holmes or someone, right?"

Re: Class Assignment

[identity profile] cameronmitchell.livejournal.com 2006-07-24 04:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Damnit. They weren't supposed to lie, right? "Something like that."

Re: Class Assignment

[identity profile] tyler-gone.livejournal.com 2006-07-24 04:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Tyler remembered Cam had to answer the questions he asked. Ha. "Who?"

He might have been enjoying this.

Cameron groaned. "Can I state my name and rank now?" Never mind that he didn't have a rank. "Cameron Mitchell. Stickbug. U.S. citizen."
