The Chiaroscuro Technique OOC

FINALLY POSTIE i try to replicate your quality posts jksdfhkljsdf

uhh sorry niko, you might have to grasp for straws more lol

ahhhhhhhhhhh you're all good <3

niko out here rlly asking her to play two truths and a lie huh

Actually, Nikolai's asking her to lie to see if Mel has a tell for it! She might not have one, and that would be okay for him. He's just kinda living a dangerous life and once he sees Mel's not lying to him, he'll be much more open, so I hope she doesn't take it personally or anything. It's just an idea I had to get him to be less cautious around her, since he's always worried ;-;

OH!!!! intereshting ohoho here i thought it had something to do with his power lol

she wouldn't mind at all! she is still young so she's not like a master at it BUT she does grow up to be low key deceitful (not in nefarious ways though) because she's an illusionist so it's kind of part of the gig asfsgvshbd

im unsure if she'll be easy to read but we'll see what happens lol

ooooh cool! eeeeeeeeeeeeeee I'm excited to see what she'll do :)

BOOM three random thoughts lol

they all have a story i swear

hehe

the first one is true but which is the lie? I’m not sure so I think I’ll have him be uncertain too eeeeee

also Mel causally dropping her powers on Niko like that is probably gonna feel like running into a brick wall to him oops BUT I THINK HIS REACTION WILL BE INTERESTING

she actually went through the exact same order he requested (so the second one is the lie) but I wouldn't put it past her to not go through that order so maybe niko can't tell looool

mel: I have POWERS
also mel: hehe monkeys cute

alright cool! I thought it was that one since that drawing is NikO’s tHiNg, but I wanted to be sure. oooh and no tell that I saw there, so he won’t be able to know for certain but will guess the second because he’d be pretty surprised if there were two artists in the room LOL

but he might forget to give his answer because POWERS are sure to get him talking

YES GOOD PERFECT ill have her explain (whether monologue or dialogue) where the second option came from since it wasn't totally random but yes she's not artist, das nikos job in this rp lool

niko be like "oh she can't possibly also WAIT POWERS WHAT DO U ASDHDHDKSKDNDB"

THAT’S PRETTY MUCH EXACTLY WHAT I’M WRITING FOR HIM YEP

PERFECT LOL I LOOK FORWARD TO NIKO'S INTERNAL SCREAMING

I HOPE THIS IS SATISFYING

THAT WAS A V CRONCHY POST TANK U I AM NOW INTRIGUED
