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!]

"Because people are wierd. I wouldn't expect you to have the same reaction." she said.

"Is your secret involving some sort of operation, or activity?"

"Why not? And yes."

Pippi thought back to when she popped her head into the Careers Faire.

"Is the friend Bridge?" she asked. "And because you're part of that police force."

"No, it wasn't Bridge...your secret involves law enforcement?"

"Only if somebody else discovers the secret." she grinned. "Does your secret involve law enforcement?"

"Yes, it does," Z said. "Why would law enforcement be involved?"

"Because I would require the services of law enforcement if somebody were to take advantage of knowing the secret and I wasn't aware that they knew it. Though I've never needed the help of law enforcement in the past on the rare occasion a person or persons discovered the secret."

"You would need...protection because of it?"

"I don't need protection because of it. But somebody else might." she said.

"When you did this thing that involves law enforcement. Were you and your friend enforcing the law? Or were the people who were not your friends enforcing the law?"

"Who?"

"One of those," Z said.

"Most people." Pippi said. "Which one of those?"

"Most people would need protection if they knew your secret. From what?"

"One or the other."

"No no. If most people, had a secret that was like mine, they would want protection from other people who would discover the secret." she said.

"When you say 'One or the other', do you mean in like 'both'?"

"Is your secret societally unacceptable in some way?"

"You mean, like, am I a dirty cop? No."

"No. It's perfectly acceptable." she said. "... Were dirty cops involved?"

"Would people knowing your secret alter your place in society or what society expects of you?"

"No."

"Not exactly. The secret is involved with something that I do not keep a secret. It's rather obvious actually. And the thing that isn't a secret can alter my place in society or what society expects of me."

"So were the people who weren't your friends in law enforcement."

Z is so confused. "Does this have to do with your strength?"

"Yes, they were."

"The fact that I wouldn't need protection has to do with my strength. But the secret does not." she said. "Were the people who were not your friends, but in law enforcement working in opposition to you and your friend?"

"Does it have to do with your friends?"

"I wouldn't say that," Z said.

"Nope, just me." she said. "Were you in competition with these people who are not your friends?"

"Is it mental in nature?"

"Nope."

"Not mental no."

"Hmmmm... Where did this thing happen between you, your friend, and people who are not your friends?"

"Do other people know about your secret already?"

"Newtech City, California."

"People? No."

"Were you and your friend working with these people who weren't your friends?"
