Laplace tells someone they are going to do something. "You will give me your gun." "You will tell me your deepest secret." "You will jump into the water." And by the time he finishes speaking, it's the truth.
(Note to self, single order, only "and" for describing conditions of completing task, not additional steps or tasks)
(Note to GMs, see extended description for relevant information)
Laplace's parasite stops him from uttering known lies, and he must exert himself to betray the limitations of his body. Within what little of the bounds he can stretch. The parasite, taking offense to the blatant lie, changes reality in order to remedy the situation.
This power is especially important since it allows him to more easily extract people's secrets, which he needs to feed the hunger the parasite inflicts on his body.

If the contested Outcome is positive, your target will be compelled to follow your command to their best understanding of the letter and spirit of the command until they have completed it or for your Outcome in minutes. You cannot issue another suggestion to the target until 10 minutes after they have completed the first command or 10 minutes after a failure.

Your command cannot be obviously self-destructive. The Effect ends if following your command would cause a target to cross one of their Limits in a way that would necessitate a Trauma roll.
