[Will post sub-threads!]

[lifetothefullest]

I started college when I was fourteen, and have four degrees.

I was shot once by a murder suspect, during a standoff.

Although I'm a terrible cook, I can actually bake pretty well.

[drabsolutelynot]

I'm really hoping the baking is a truth.

[lifetothefullest]

It is. Clearly I learned the more important of the two related food-based skills.

[drabsolutelynot]

I assure you humans cannot subsist on a pastry-based existence, Lance. I went to medical school just to be sure.

[mismanagement]

.....

Does schooling not generally start at fourteen in your world?

[lifetothefullest]

High school starts at fourteen; college varies, but if you go directly after high school usually you start at eighteen.

[mismanagement]

How--strange.

[She is not jealous. She is not so don't even start.]

I don't see how you could avoid getting shot, considering your--everything, so I deem the baking to be the lie.

[lifetothefullest]

I've never been outside of the United States.

I was engaged once, but never married.

The only jobs I've ever had that weren't directly related to my degrees in psychology involved music in some way.

[notimpervious]

The third one is the lie. You must have worked other jobs. Even I have worked other jobs!

[Because you were on the run, Brennan.......]

[lifetothefullest]

Dr. Brennan, when exactly do you think I had time to work a lot of different jobs?

[And okay, he did have three outside of his jobs at the FBI, but one was the dark time of teaching car salesmen psychology tips and the others were indeed music-related.]

[notimpervious]

Summers.

[That's a thing people do, right. Summer jobs. It's very common in American culture.

OH NO WAIT--]

You have been outside of the country! You have a degree from the University of Toronto. You said so at my father's trial.

[Yes sure let's just bring up that one time everyone was trying to prove her dad murdered a guy. Because he actually murdered a guy. And yet she planted reasonable doubt in the hearing. LET'S JUST. REVISIT THAT.]

[fracturedbeauty]

Well, clearly being out of the U.S. is the lie. You're in the caves, after all~

[lifetothefullest]

I think being here kind of doesn't count, but you're right all the same.

[And good thing that was the lie anyway so it's less of an oversight LEAVE HIM ALONE OKAY]

[fracturedbeauty]

Of course it counts. You said never and well... feel free to go back to the previous argument anytime you like~

[lifetothefullest]

I was an officially-ranked chessmaster in college.

I've written a few books, but haven't actually published any.

I once kept a goat in my office at the FBI building for a few days.

[therewillbeorder]

You don't seem as if you are the type to win at a game like chess.

[lifetothefullest]

[Um EXCUSE YOU?]

And why is that?

[therewillbeorder]

You're naive and soft. You don't seem the type to be willing to go in for the kill in order to win.

[dedikated]

... Why a goat?

( Kate you're supposed to guess not ask questions. )

[lifetothefullest]

Because it needed somewhere to stay until the animal rescue opened for the week.

[Obviously. :c]

[einselective]

What kind of books?

[lifetothefullest]

Two psychology-related nonfiction books, and one fictionalized account of true events.

[requiemshark]

You're definitely nerdy enough for chess, so that's out.

Nah, if you've written a book, you got that shit published.

[lifetothefullest]

At least someone believes I can play chess.

But you're correct. Two of my books are published, and the third I only just finished.
