[oh boy. Here's Ienzo, with a bunch of chemicals from the lab. Right now he's examining them, not doing much, but given the lab's track record for oddities, this can't be good]

I do wonder what uses these chemicals have... truth gas and changing age can't be the only possibilities. There must be some logic behind them.

Well, to some degree. After all, this gas not only prevents lies, but makes an individual more prone to speaking the truth, even secrets.

[willnotbuffyou.livejournal.com]

Then why did you-- You didn't tell me it would do that.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

I didn't want you to worry.

[willnotbuffyou.livejournal.com]

[laughs a little.]

I was going to worry either way.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

...You do have a point. Hm...

[willnotbuffyou.livejournal.com]

... So, should I ask you where you're ticklish?

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

My ribs are one place, but you already know that, and...well, my feet are another.

[willnotbuffyou.livejournal.com]

[laaaughs. in a nice way.]

Then I have a second target. Thanks.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

...I suppose I should have expected that much.

[willnotbuffyou.livejournal.com]

Sorry. It was kind of hard to resist.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

I don't mind, really.

[willnotbuffyou.livejournal.com]

Okay, if you say so. ...it has to be true now, huh?

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Well, yes. As of now, I can only speak the truth.

[willnotbuffyou.livejournal.com]

That's what I thought. I won't ask you any more questions like that, though. Promise.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Alright, though I wouldn't mind too much.

[and now he's thinking]

[willnotbuffyou.livejournal.com]

I won't take advantage of you like that.

[just gonna... look at the ceiling.]

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

...Odd.

[willnotbuffyou.livejournal.com]

... What is?

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Well, I had assumed that the gas would clarify things, and... hm.

[willnotbuffyou.livejournal.com]

... I don't get it. Did something go wrong?

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

... I...

I don't know, still. It's entirely possible that they were... at least being logical with their speculation, but---

That doesn't really clarify much at all. Perhaps I haven't had enough gas... hm.

[willnotbuffyou.livejournal.com]

[b-blinks.]

Hey, wait. Are you sure about that? If you still don't know, maybe... Maybe you can only tell the truth about what you do know.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

...Perhaps you do have a point, but, if that is the case, how else am I going to evaluate this situation and make a proper decision? How am I going to know?

[willnotbuffyou.livejournal.com]

...I don't know. Things like this aren't easy. It's hard to put them in black and white like that; sometimes the answer isn't either.

Is there anything I can do?

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

...Well, I don't know, Kairi. Ri did make a suggestion, but it was a bit...ridiculous.
