Two truths and a lie! (forced)

This meme is simple!

1. Your character is forced to say two truths and one lie. Post them!
2. Other characters ICly guess which is the lie and which are the truths.
3. Your character reacts. Hilarity ensures!

The second. Everything I know about lying, I learned from you.

Ah yes. Well, it doesn't come that easy to me, you know. Sometimes, I have to lie so that people don't get hurt in the process.

I understand that, you know. The need to lie to protect others. It's part of why I made such a good Doctor.

Lying isn't something I want as one of my traits. I'd rather tell the truth outright. Sort of like if something is really bad and everyone is going to die then I'd tell them that. There is no point throwing the curtain over people's eyes when they're staring at the obvious.

Sometimes you have to lie.

[SHRUG.]

Should I list three things for you to guess from now?

Alright then. Why not? [He gave a shrug back and wondered if could guess as well as her.]

1. I absolutely hate being a teacher.
2. I sometimes have dreams about my echoes, even though they're supposed to be filed away and forgotten.
3. I'm happier here than I've been in a long time.

Hm, a tough one. But, I'd have to say the top one, since I know you're a good teacher and enjoy educating the young.

Got it in one. And here I thought you were completely unobservant.

I'd be a pretty rubbish friend if I didn't realise when you were lying, Clara. [He gave her a playful elbow in the side.]

[Laughing, she grabs hold of his arm to keep him from elbowing her again.]

It's a good thing you're not a rubbish friend, then. If you had gotten it wrong, you would've earned a slap.

Is that so? [Oh, he knows that face. It's her serious face and he doesn't want to get on the wrong side of that. Not ever.]

Definitely so.

[Laughing once again, she playfully swats at his arm.]

Go on, give me three more to guess from.

Alright...

1. I was pushed off a radio tower by one of my closest friends and I died.
2. I couldn't save a boy I knew and he got blown up on a deserted planet.
3. One of my companions locked me in a cupboard until we arrived at our destination.

The first and last sound so ridiculous it must be true.

The second one's the lie, isn't it? [Right?]

No, the last one about the cupboard was the lie. The boy's name was Adric and he was trapped on the Cybermen's planet, Mondas. I couldn't save him. [It was a harsh truth indeed.]

Oh. [Well that's depressing.]

Suppose I should consider myself lucky I've made it out of two Cybermen encounters alive.
