DAY 1 - Evening

[islandiastaff]

[It's been a long walk, but welcome to Lounge Two! It looks a lot like Lounge One, although the food spread isn't quite as impressive this time. Gotta motivate some hardcore survival, after all.

M.C is here, of course.]

CONGRATULATIONS! You've made it through the first day, and it's time to relax... but not for long! Eat well, check out your new rooms, and when the sun touches the horizon, it'll be time for... the Trial of Justice!

[see: you put the thing the entire franchise is named after right in your game, but you never you never let anyone know what it actually is]

What? The way he's using it? You'd be surprised how many phonemically powered guys just want some entertainment. [he goes more serious next though because even if that's a possibility it's kind of a "no thank you" one. like. ever.] Thing is, we're stuck playing this game unless we figured out a way off this place, an' that's not gonna happen with everybody just playing along nicely for a prize.

[ he's got these dark, dark shades on but Axel might be able to feel the look Wolfwood turns on him now; interested, sharp. he actually wouldn't be too surprised, because Legato's a special kind of powerful and even more special kind of fucked up, and more than once he's wondered if the guy doesn't pop a sadism boner with all the shit he pulls. ]

You figure they'll let us off either way?

[exfired]

I wouldn't say "let", but there's a lot more chance of succeeding at anything with a whole group than just one or two guys. [he waves himself off right there, though] But it's not gonna happen. These kids are way too trusting, an' the wish thing? You gotta admit, it sure sounds enticing. The conditions aren't too bad, either... There's nothing to ping any of 'em as too awful. And that's just good enough for them to play along.

[ a group, huh. funny. it's never worked out that way for him. ]

That's 'cuz they're kids. [ tightly ]

[honestly, axel talks a good game, but he trusts everyone in this place exactly 0%. wolfwood and just fyi i typoed wolfwoof sounds off there though so axel lifts up his hands in a "peace" gesture, even though he doesn't acknowledge he's doing it.]

Well, yeah. That's probably the reason the majority here are kids.

[ welcome to the wolfwoof fold

he makes a soft, almost derisive sound in his throat and shrugs. this guy's attitude's too familiar in all the most uncomfortable ways and he's not in the fuckin' mood for it. time to chase the tails of a previous topic. ]

Look, we don't know for sure where anybody ends up when they're sent out on their ass, so I'd recommend playing along.

[ for now ]

[exfired]

Don't worry about me. I'm pretty good at playin' along.

[s2g]

Good to know.
