[...] Not ideal. The lie detection also applies to things I say.

Anyway, this seems to only trigger during in-person interactions. So if you have things to hide, you can now be smarter about it.

really? here I was thinking you'd like being able to get to the heart of things.

[Parson is typing for several minutes...]

I'm really sorry. I don't know why I said that.

[.......]

ANYWAY, idk. if it's uncomfortable for you. i'll try to tell the truth more. ~~ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh~~

Ugh, don't apologise. I would rather take honesty over simpering politeness. If the cost is speedrunning self-awareness, then so be it.

I'm not telling you this so you'll tell the truth, I'm telling you so you can better hide your secrets around me. [...] Are you a painfully earnest person? Is this what this is?

hey, my politeness is awkward, not simpering. and I'm not so sure this is self-awareness being speedrun. ~~for instance, I know you two think you have this all figured out already, but I don't know WHY I kn~~

I am not, but [...] why would I? not claiming I don't have secrets. just, is there some kind of danger in you knowing them?

I admit, it's a longer road than most to self-awareness. Compulsive lying is something of a family trait, as I'm sure you know.

~~He must have told you~~ Is there some kind of danger in trusting me? Yes. Always. But if you don't want to be cautious, then I won't encourage it.

it was a skill we [Parson stops typing entirely for several seconds] you all developed out of need. and now the universe is trying to get you to set it aside, utilizing the aesop's fable format. [...] you didn't deserve the barb, whether or not I meant it. thanks for telling me.

[......] no. I don't want to be. can't promise that I won't still be, but I'll try.

That was hardly a barb. A barb would be saying you sound like a self-help book written by the drama teacher of an overprivileged middle school, and it truly baffles me as to why my brother enjoyed this.

Do whatever you like. I have [...] no expectations of you.

this is drama teacher on drama teacher violence.

Fully inaccurate. I've never attended a single drama class in my life.

I'd argue that at least half of your life was dedicated to performance ~~for a very tough crowd~~.

A matter of survival, in my case. What are you performing for?

[...] same thing, I guess. in a way.

Oh?

~~Gavin's memories~~ ~~I'm not just~~ ~~this is giving me a headache~~ [...] it predated Gavin. it's not ~~that~~ entirely that.

I did assume this, actually. [...] I feel like you know much more about me than I know about you.

[...] jeez, this is what I get for telling you I wouldn't be cagey. look, it's nothing juicy. I just [...] need the structure or things fall apart quick. few people enjoy listening to a guy talk for ten unbroken minutes about the minute differences between liminal grackles on the east coast, and I don't like being lonely. so, the show it is.

~~Did he enjoy listen~~ [...]

Interesting. I'll make note of that.
