Break the Ice Part 2

[newhire]

Well that was. [Han...] You all did really well yesterday.

[She didn't participate but of course, she was watching! ...probably on her phone. But today she's here to assist! Which means there's probably some other stupid activity ready to be thrown your way.]

Today we have a different kind of bonding activity for you! The name of today's game is--! Two lies and a truth. Today you're going to test how well you know each other-- and maybe learn a lot more!

[And for those who may not know the rules--]

You're going to give someone a list of two things that are not true about you-- and one that is. And based on what they know about you and their impressions of you, they're going to do their best to find the truth. When it's all done, you'll tell them whether they're right or not and if they got it wrong-- you'll tell them the truth!

Yeah, he would.

[ Hank nods. ]

Connor's a big fan of direct questions. Go ahead and ask him "Why does Lieutenant Anderson think he can just sit back and do nothing at his job?" and he'll give you my whole fucking psych eval.

[ Or whatever he feels is relevant, you know. ]

[covertizer]

[ Hmmm. ]

I'll keep that in mind then. If I want anything from Connor, be direct.

[donotlick]

Yep, he doesn't have that pesky human awkwardness we all tend to get. Makes him real fun at parties.

[ it does not, and Hank wouldn't know anyway, but ok Hank. ]

[covertizer]

[ Hank at parties.... lawd. ]

I know one or two people who tend to say what they think without fear. They're some of the best people I know.

[donotlick]

[ Wow, he's a delight! ]

Guess you and Connor are gonna be good friends, then.

[ meanwhile: hank... ]

[covertizer]

[ Is that what they call it nowadays? ]

I've never been friends with an android before. Is it fun?

[donotlick]

I dunno if you'd call us friends. [ he shrugs ] We're partners. Got assigned the same case back home, so it made sense to keep it going here.

[ Wow, they're definitely not!! Friends!! At least not until Shit Happens the following week... ]

[covertizer]

[ Oh come on Hank. ]

I'm friends with my partners. It was a natural progression.

[ TIME TO GET FRIENDSHIPPED, HANK. ]

[donotlick]

Yeah, it comes with time. But then I'm used to my partners being human, not plastic.

[ Androids!!! Are!!! Dumb!! ]
