How is your character 26 if he was born in 1990? He would be like, 35.
If I'm not online, I'm probably playing something on my Xbox One, so bear with me.

Kelvinsi, I need you to realize something.

Sure, the 'truth serum' can make people admit to thing, but it also can, more often then not, make them admit to things they didn't do, and often those who have taken it cannot be gotten to shut up and will start saying things that dont make sense at all, almost as if they were reciting in detail one of their dreams, so using it is probably not that useful and anybody you use it on will not be a reliable source of information from while under it's influence.
Here is a more in depth video made by Scishow explaining the whole thing.]

Not that it's real, but you're right. It's more "super honesty serum" than truth serum.
Love me some eastern fantasy. If you're a fan of wuxia, xianxia, or jidai (or eastern fantasy in general), give me a holler!

Not even that.
Its the blab serum. You want someone to talk? This will get them to.
You want them to talk about a specific thing? Well then your f***ing far from from it here.
The people will pretty much say whatever they think the interrogater will be most pleased by, even if it's something they never commited, and will also often decide not to answer some questions and say some raandom, useless and often surreal thing instead of their questions just because they feel like it.

I'm afraid that this RP just isn't right for you. There's nothing very specific I can point out, but the general vibe from your application just doesn't seem right. I think it would be better if you just found another RP, or did something else.

Good point, but I do reserve the right to point this out IC whenever you use it, and unless people ignore me it probably wont be that useful.

It just doesn't sit well with the feeling of the RP. Sorry.

Well, that doesn't bode well as constructive criticism. I suppose I've wasted enough time here.
Reading the IC I guess I see what you mean. It doesn't seem that well thought out or logical. Besides a few points where the posts high interest in the subjects is very apparent.
It's still pretty young in the RP I guess you guys could go anyway.

Well, I wish you guys a enjoyable time.

Probably in a few hours. Not sure if I want to make an entire other thread for the Lunar Council, should I?

I think you should, since I do not want the IC getting cluttered up.

Especially because you can essentially count clicking on the link and going to the other thread as literally entering the doors of the council, otherwise you won't experience it as you are outside of it's walls.

Argentarino, there isn't actually anything called 'gravity sickness'. In 0g, a portion of people can get feelings similar to motion sickness for a small time, but that is just in 0g, and those who would actually be sent up in space are those who don't experience this, do you not think that this is tested during the application process? I would figure you could order a shipment of medical supplies if you are running low (Although I truly doubt you are), but that would include dramamine or similar products to at least some extent and that would be able to cure any possible motion sickness related ailments, of which there would be little.
