How Do I Know You're Not Lying To Me?

Saturday, March 25, 2017
Also known as, "How do I know what I'm seeing is real?" or "Believe what you see, but what if it's all lies?"

Previously, in this series, East readily and willingly offers to bring West to Fantasia and even to the Spades Kingdom so the latter could see what is really going on and find out for sure who is telling the truth and who is lying.

Well, you know what they say, ‘seeing is believing’. You never know who’s lying or not so it’s best to confirm this for yourself, no? Let’s see what West has to say about that:
adventure, fantasy, superheroes series, short story, creative writing
West’s lip is bitten. It looks like the Superhero is actually considering the offer. Maybe. “Uh, they're not gonna lie, are they? I mean, they're not being threatened to say or to pretend that they like being part of the Spades Kingdom?

"Or, like, maybe they're just saying all these nice stuff so they won’t get in trouble or something,” West says, sounding concerned and unsure.

East stares at West in complete and utter disbelief before promptly face-palming and then sighing. “Azure, that is absurd,” East started to say.

*Notes:
- This is part 68 of The Adventures Of The World’s Superheroes series, a story told in several short posts
- Part 67
- Anime girl with azure hair and dress pic is from Amazon.com
- Pic was chosen to represent the 'Azure' nickname that East calls West
