You wrote it! This is excellent. I love the frustration of getting caught in a lie that's so strong here. :)

Yeah, I wrote it! Glad you approve ;D Eli's a smart boy, he's figured out that trying to lie to Lightman is pointless.

Haha! I love it. Poor Eli. Though hopefully Cal wouldn't have been quite as cranky about it as Eli would expect. ;-)

Well he's only been with them six months :D Give the boy a chance to figure it out!

*snicker* He'd probably catch on as soon as he saw Cal with Jeff. ;-)

*cackle* Come on, that would be a wonderful first impression. Cal would be Amused. XD or at least we would be.

Interesting explaination for the Radical Honesty too.

I don't doubt that Cal would be interested amused. We just need to wait for Eli to work that out! And yeah, I always figured Radical Honesty was sort of a defense mechanism...

Also: much love for your username \o/

*nodnod* I had figured it for that or for the Late Night Musings of a philosophy student. That he decided to take up, got a kick out of and enjoyed...until there was a Huge Hard Thing he had to do.

:D and for yours! Vimes/Vetinari?

Good point. In my experience, philosophy students get downright weird around 3am.

V/V FTW indeed \o/
