1. The man who was both my mentor and guardian was sent to prison.
2. I had an assault rifle here, but I gave it away.
3. My favourite artists are Van Gogh, Da Vinci, and Hokusai.

[vocarrah]

The second is a lie, correct? [He only vaguely knows what an assault rifle is]

[wantsnudes]

Actually, no, it's the truth. I gave it to someone who needed a weapon during the Null invasion.

[theweakhavepurpose]

I hope it's the second one because that's not a smart move.

[wantsnudes]

Given the myriad dangers of Hadriel, I'm sure I made the right decision in arming someone instead of leaving her defenceless.

Which is to say -- no, it was not a lie.

[theweakhavepurpose]

Oh.

That makes more sense, I was thinking you just gave it away. How will you protect yourself now though?

[wantsnudes]

I'm not particularly good at fighting, so it is safest to leave such things to those who are. I spent much of the invasion in hiding...

[theweakhavepurpose]

Well if you survived, then you made the right choice.

Why did you have a gun in the first place if you weren't gonna use it?

[wantsnudes]

Ideally, I would have liked to have kept it, of course. But I could not in good conscience leave someone defenceless who wanted to fight, and it would have been better in the hands of someone more capable than I.

[theweakhavepurpose]

That's ... decent of you. Most people would only think of their own hides.

[Most people including himself.]

I'm gonna guess the third one is the lie then.

[wantsnudes]

It was the least I could do for someone in need.

What makes you think so?

[theweakhavepurpose]

Because they're three famous people, the kind of people you'd pick if you were doing a report in school.

[wantsnudes]

There's nothing wrong with admiring that which is famous, even outside of the art world.

Still, you're correct. They're not my favourites, though I enjoy their works immensely.

[theweakhavepurpose]

No, but usually people want to seem special. Cultured I guess.

[Though now that he thinks about it, he has no idea who his favorite artists are.]

[puzzlingly]

I'm gonna go for the third.

[wantsnudes]

Oh? Are you familiar with their works?

[puzzlingly]

A little. The Starry Night, the Mona Lisa and the Great Wave off Kanagawa, right?

[wantsnudes]

Indeed. All masterpieces in their own right, so what leads you to believe I would be lying?

[puzzlingly]

Hmm, honestly? Because the first one seems like something that could happen to anyone.

「It kind of happened to him...?」

I don't know much about art to tell the truth.

[wantsnudes]

Oh? Are you saying such occurrences are common, in your experience?

[puzzlingly]

Not common, no. But they happen. People is not just good or bad...

[wantsnudes]

Hmm... I see.

In any case, you are correct. I greatly admire the artists I named, but they are not my favourite, so it was something of a trick statement.

[puzzlingly]

Which are your favorite?

[wantsnudes]

My mother's work. She produced a masterpiece that captivated me like no other, inspiring me to become an artist. Even to this day, I draw inspiration from it.

[puzzlingly]

Ah... that sounds great. Is she a famous artist too?
