PLOT POST: Truth Week

That's right, it's the week SO MANY RESIDENTS WERE LOOKING FORWARD TO! :D
This week, everyone will be Telling The Truth! If they're not seriously thinking about what they're saying, then whatever they just meant to say? If it wasn't perfectly honest, it will be - whether it's the truth as they know it about the subject, their honest opinion, or their actual thoughts on the matter! You can just try and stay silent and not speak, although this may lead to occasional incidents of things getting blurted out if it's taken too far, at MUN option. (So, once your character realizes what's going on, if there's something you ABSOLUTELY DON'T WANT getting out, they have a chance to avoid it, but otherwise? Hahahaha when does the Author make it that easy.) You can do some minimal word games and avoiding the subject, HOWEVER:
If it's more than just trying to avoid talking about it or some other sort of subject-dodge, it won't work, and you'll end up blurting out the truth anyway;
And if it's abused too far with leaving things out or avoiding things continually, the "Nope, you had enough time to dodge this plot" will start kicking in occasionally.
"Well, that's great, I'll just hide in my room and not turn on my Blackberry!", you might be thinking.
Sadly, if you try, you'll start finding yourself periodically moved to the Main Hall, or having your Blackberry just decide to broadcast if you're the type to talk to yourself.
Other than that, it's going to be a fairly quiet weak; weather will be cloudy, slightly hot, and humid, changing to a pretty continual rain midway in the week! (So yeah, it'd be miserable to try to hide in the woods.)
