As happy as César is on the ship, upon discovering that there's something interfering with what he says, he becomes incredibly paranoid. Enough so that he doesn't emerge from 'hiding' until partway through the month, only when he's certain he won't be blabbering any dangerous secrets.

Instead, they'll be embarrassing or emotional, which in some ways, César dreads worse. But he needs to go out and be social. He doesn't want to worry his boys, and there might be others on the ship he can reassure. Also, he's now grown fascinated.


1. Rain, rain, go away. [OTA, choose truths or lies]

César walks outside in the rain as an experiment. Yes. He's getting wet on purpose. Is it all water? Once he's properly drizzled, he walks back inside with a grin.

He's aware he's probably under the effects now, but at the same time, he'll have no idea what he's really saying until the hour is over. It's so interesting! César spots a victim and walks over to them, grinning and staying quite a decent amount away.

If it's lies: "My hair is filled with stars. It is an ocean of twinkling light."

If it's truths: "I dye my hair to hide the stress grays."

And regardless, he ends with: "Can you tell me what I just said, please? ... Oh, and hello!" An embarrassed grin, realizing he's forgotten that part.


2. Icing Himself [OTA, choose unaware truths or lies]

César got himself a mixed drink on a non-rainy day and is now sitting at a small table in the promenade. The drink is gone. However, the ice cubes aren't. There's absolutely no way he's going to let those go to waste. He has that first one mostly gone when he spots someone and crunches down on it so he can greet them warmly without something in his mouth.

If it's truths: "Beautiful day, isn't it?"

If it's lies: "Shit day, isn't it?"


BONUS. Cabins. [Residents of Cabins 102 and 107, truths only]

As interesting as this all is, sometimes he just doesn't want to deal with it. César comes out of the bathroom wearing a t-shirt and sweatpants. Seeing the bed unoccupied, he walks over and flops onto it.
