I can't believe I agreed to go on this stupid trip. I've boosted my signal to max and still can't find a satellite.

Yeah, I think I got him a couple of times. [Smiling a bit now] But it's even harder to read him when I can't see. I hope you really can teach me to smell lies and all. I think I might need it.

It is not as difficult as you might think! [She nudges him with her shoulder.] I will teach you everything I know. I promise.

Re: [Action!]

[thekidsare0kay]

[He slips his arm around her and leans against her shoulder]

Yeah, I know.

You're not going to make me go swimming, right?

[Action!]

[4llth3just1c3.livejournal.com]

I guess not!

[She pauses, tracing a crack in the rock with her fingertips.]

I could try to teach you how to tell when someone is lying, instead.

[Action!]

[thekidsare0kay]

Thank gog.

[He perks up at this] Yeah? Okay. That sounds good.

[Action!]

[4llth3just1c3.livejournal.com]

Okay! I will tell you two things that are true and one that is a lie! There will be a very subtle shift in my scent when I lie.

[thekidsare0kay]

[He nods and straightens, inhaling a little more deeply as he prepares to try to determine the differences]

Okay, I'm ready.

[Action!]

[4llth3just1c3.livejournal.com]

I will make it easy for you to start with, okay?

So, first! My favorite color is red, Dave smells like cranberries, and my blood is teal.

[thekidsare0kay]

[He frowns, concentrating] Well, I know that middle one is the lie. Uh, go slower, maybe? [He leans a little closer, all but burying his nose in the crook of her neck as he sniffs.]

[Action!]

[4llth3just1c3.livejournal.com]

[She giggles when he sniffs her neck, resisting the urge to push him away. Jeez, Sollux, that tickles!]

Okay, okay! Dave smells like hoofbeast barf.

Re: [Action!]

[thekidsare0kay]

[He laughs, licking a little with his tongues] Nope, that's got to be true!

[But he straightens up, snickering] I think it smelled a little weird, though. Might just be my imagination, but it went a bit...sour.

[Action!]

[4llth3just1c3.livejournal.com]

[She laughs again and elbows him in the side.]

Yes, that is exactly right!

[Action!]

[thekidsare0kay]

Wow. [He sits back a little, shaking his head and rubbing the place where her elbow impacted his ribs] I can't believe... I think I'm starting to get this.

[Action!]

[4llth3just1c3.livejournal.com]

[She leans her head against his shoulder.]

You are a very good student.

[Action!]

[thekidsare0kay]

[Pleased, he leans his head against hers, avoiding the horns automatically]

Not like I've got anything better to do than practice.

[Action!]

[4llth3just1c3.livejournal.com]

Maybe the extra tongue helps, too.

[Action!]

[thekidsare0kay]

[He grimaces a little, then grins] Actually, I think it does. Gog, I'm going to wind up like you, after all. Licking everything and being a freak.

[Action!]

[4llth3just1c3.livejournal.com]

[She huffs!]

Who are you calling a freak, nerd?

[Action!]

[thekidsare0kay]

That's you, freak. [He grins and pokes her lightly in the side]

[Action!]

[4llth3just1c3.livejournal.com]

Why are you so lame?

[Action!]

[thekidsare0kay]

It's part of my charm.

[Action!]

[4llth3just1c3.livejournal.com]

You have charm?

I still want to go swimming.

[Action!]

[thekidsare0kay]

[He groans]

I don't.
