K nockinBoots: Two truths and a lie… You’re up.

FireInMyVeins: I speak three languages fluently, I’m scared of clowns, and my comfort hobby is doing puzzles.

KnockinBoots: Hmm… interesting. *smirk emoji* I’m going with the fear of clowns being a lie?

FireInMyVeins: I’m embarrassed to say that one’s actually true.

I remember my mom hiring a clown to come to my birthday party when I turned seven.

He wasn’t too friendly and had a creepy smile, but the part that really freaked me out was when the power went out from a thunderstorm.

I ran into him in a dark hallway in my house.

His face paint had started to run from the rain and he pretended to lunge at me, then laughed maniacally when I cried. Scarred me for life.

KnockinBoots: I’ve never understood the hype with having clowns at kids’ birthday parties. I don’t have a fear of them, but they definitely give me odd vibes whenever I’m around one. I’m curious which one is the lie then.

FireInMyVeins: I don’t speak three languages fluently. The Spanish I took in high school gave me a basic understanding, but outside of that, it’s strictly English for me.

KnockinBoots: So, puzzles, huh? I don’t think I’ve put together a puzzle since I was a kid.

FireInMyVeins: Yeah, I don’t know what it is about them, but I love it. They help take my mind off life. I started when I was little, with my mom. Haven’t done one in a long time, though.

KnockinBoots: How come?

FireInMyVeins: Life got busy…and complicated. *shrug emoji*

FireInMyVeins: Your turn to hit me with two truths and a lie.

KnockinBoots: *evil grin emoji* Got a tattoo on my dick, I’m vegan, and I’m left-handed.

FireInMyVeins: The tattoo has to be a lie, right? Who in their right mind would get a tattoo on their dick?

KnockinBoots: Probably someone with a nice dick and a pain kink, if I had to guess. *shrug emoji* Is that your final answer?

FireInMyVeins: Hmm… I’m not sure because I find it hard to believe you’d be vegan especially when you work around cattle.

KnockinBoots: Maybe I own a cattle sanctuary. What’s your guess gonna be, baby?

FireInMyVeins: You being vegan is a lie… and if I’m right, I’m intrigued—and impressed—by the tattoo.

KnockinBoots: Guess you’ll just have to wait and see. *wink emoji*
