EVE'S HEART

[aprettygirl]

A dark veil slips over you, obscuring your vision; it’s cool and clinging, and blocks out all outside sensation. You drift downward . . . as you do, you grow more and more aware of the pulse of your own heartbeat, until it’s a ringing, unpleasant throb in your ears.

. . . after some time, it’s interrupted by a soft splash, and you feel solid rock underfoot.

... Does Eve lie a lot?

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[aprettygirl]

"Quite a lot."

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[ademoelord]

How come?

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[aprettygirl]

"Necessity and strategy."

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[ademoelord]

Even in Aather?

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[aprettygirl]

"What lie would you be worried about, in Aather?"

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[ademoelord]

I don't know. I never thought about her lying before.

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[aprettygirl]

"Ah..."

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[ademoelord]

[holds up the flowers though]

There's one in here though... of her in the ring... Do you know what it's about?

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[aprettygirl]

"...I can't...you're making me answer questions I'm not built to. Not here."

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[ademoelord]

Where can you answer it then?

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[aprettygirl]

"In the truth under my lies."

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[ademoelord]

... so... is this place the lies?

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[aprettygirl]

"Deception, dazzlement, smoke and mirrors."

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[ademoelord]

[looking around at the beach... and then at the ocean...]

So... it's not real?

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[aprettygirl]

"Every good lie has a little truth in it. So, it's a little bit real, but mostly not."

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[ademoelord]

So... it's probably not so big... right?

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[aprettygirl]

"What standard are you using to judge?"

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[ademoelord]

Huh?

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[aprettygirl]

"Whether a lie is large or small."

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[ademoelord]

Um... just that... it looks like it goes on forever... but... does it?

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[aprettygirl]

She just sighs; the roses you're holding have turned completely black.

"It will for you, I think. If someone tells you they're a liar, this isn't the best way to find things out. Remember that next time, okay?"

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[ademoelord]

... Sorry.

Re: flesh (by daylight)

[aprettygirl]

"No worries. Live and learn . . ."

She winks at you, and you go somewhere else.
