Description:

Daud and Billie are horrible at lying so their lies all look like cheap theatre productions

The quieter the assassin the worse liar they are. They’re HORRIBLE with coming up with lies on the spot so they have to like. Rehearse.

Related: I hc that Daud can't spin a lie to save his life either, and relies exclusively (and rather masterfully at this point) on lying by omission. Daud also lies very well by relying on "exact words" and technical truth. But ask him to really invent something on the spot and he manages to spit out the absolutely worse lie you've ever heard. 5yo kids can do better.

emily has got to be the best liar of the protags. she's been a politician since she was 10. billie & daud take notes

Shop clerk: Da?

Billie: yes Da.

Daud: Da Nikolov, I’m from Tyvia

Billie: he’s from Tyvia. It’s very cold up there

Daud: yup

Shop clerk: wait a minute... I recognize your scar

Daud: no you don’t, you’re probably mistaking me with my long lost brother who I lost in an avalanche when I was 9 years old

(he does it in the WORST tyvian accent ever that's honestly bordering on a hate crime)
