The Truth Serum Meme
The cliche and tired trope used to create conflict or acts of realization.

And congrats, now your character is inflicted by such a trope! Be it magic, drugs, or other means. Regardless of how, your character has lost the ability to lie or be dishonest.

Are you going to tell your childhood crush how you really feel? Or maybe tell your best friend about the double life you live? Perhaps this is a good time to admit to murder... hm.

Leave your character's name in the comment section.

Characters ask you a question, you must reply truthfully.

Have fun, no lying.

Respect has nothing to do with it. If I respect someone, I tell them their weaknesses instead of taking advantage of them. I follow their orders because they're right, not because I want to play nice. If I knew your feelings were so easily hurt, I'd have shown restraint, but that wouldn't have been out of respect.

You realize you can do all of that without talking down to people, right? Or is it too much effort?

It sounds like you just want to be able to insult everyone and still be treated like you're somehow still on the same team. That's not how it works.

[snaphiss]

Clearly you've never worked in the organizations I have. That is exactly how it works.

[greentech]

Your organizations sound like they're full of idiots.

But they had you, so why am I surprised?

[snaphiss]

Now who's talking down to people.

[greentech]

Me. Because you deserve it.

[snaphiss]

Because it's alright when you do it? How convenient.

Oh, that's rich coming from the woman who's been nothing but a complete asshole since day one. When you push people, sometimes they push back! Does everybody where you're from just roll over for your high and mighty act?

[snaphiss]

No one rolls over. They give as good as they get, without harping on the morality of it.

Great. Well, have fun being alone when everyone gets fed up with you.
