Week 3 Mingle

[foundationmods]

The last week has brought the first spilled blood. Three of the contestants are gone, with the promise of more to fall soon. The atmosphere around the house will start to get heavy around Wednesday, which is when the first game of the week is. It's almost like the house knows something is up...

The conspiracy is beginning to unravel. Dazai isn't Dazai, and the cracks are forming in his act. But that act must be held up, or the Foundation will be brought in to take control of the game. Now everyone must play the part and act like everything is normal, at least on camera. That stress of always performing is bound to make someone crack eventually.

Once again, the cameras and microphones change. The contestants will have to search out new spots for their secret conversations. Even one wrong step, one wrong word, and it's all over for this group. Everyone is watching, and they need to play their roles.

They better keep an eye out too, because storm clouds are starting to loom over the area, both figuratively and literally.

Is Goro's soul safe?

[#priorities. Akira's voice is flat, emotionally exhausted.]

[guileturncoat]

Yes. My friend on the other side, she is keeping them safe. We will need gigais to put them in later, but she is a skilled necromancer, so they won't be in harm's way.

[dereban]

[ actually butting in here to ask, quietly: ]

Your friend. . . her name doesn't happen to be 'Marona', does it?

[guileturncoat]

She goes by many names, just as I do.

[That's not a denial, though.]

[dereban]

I should throw a chestnut into your face, you know.

[guileturncoat]

[Bleh]

[dereban]

I hope you're happy, John Doe.

[ you can

hear just how bitter she is because she is VERY BITTER ]

[guileturncoat]

I'm not happy here, but it is what it is. There's too much work to do to keep you guys in the dark here.

1 / 2

[dereban]

I figured.

But I'm still mad that you lied when I was right, you know.

[ SHE IS.

SUPER.

BITTER.

DOEZAI. ]

[dereban]

[ but then her bitter expression fades into something more neutral, as if it was never there in the first place ]

So? How much are you going to tell us? Is this the trial or not?

[guileturncoat]

Yeah, it absolutely is a trial. They want to get rid of every 6350 in existence and decommission the machine that summons them. Say what you will about shutting down the machine, but nobody should be killed because of it.

[dereban]

It's an unfair trial, but I'm preaching to the choir at this point. I have a guess as to why, but I want to pick your brain a little. . . is there a particular reason why they want to get rid of the 6350s?

[ She wants to see if his answer will match hers. ]

[guileturncoat]

As far as I have heard, it's the rampant insubordination among extremely powerful 6350s. Red broke protocol to save everyone at that camp. Several people from the 'Rescue Reyes and Kurosaki' mission went AWOL. Then there's the whole mess with that one guy and how a bunch of people basically became traitors to help him get free. This kind of thing never happens. Or, well, not on this scale. Sometimes someone will step out of line, but they get shut down fast.

It's scaring the higher-ups. They think that it's only a matter of time before someone snaps and kills everyone. Some of the 6350s certainly have the power to do that.

[...Ellie feels like the Foundation is better off without those people that went missing during the Hotel California mission, though... I mean, have you seen them?]

[dereban]

[ FUCKING MOOD, ELLIE ]

[scarsnstripes]

[....oh.

Well, he can’t exactly argue against how dangerous they are, considering....

Atsushi droops a little.]

[oceanicbutterfly]

[OOPS?]

[dereban]

Why am I not surprised. . .

[ yeah, that tracks ]

[oceanicbutterfly]

...in our defense, the clown was about to do something that would cause a lot of problems for essentially everyone, and we didn't have much time to deal with it.

[prayerwheel]

[ oh fuck ]

[mastersdefender]

Well, I suppose that's their fault for not trying to improve things and pretending that everything would always be the same with their obviously terrible practices of handling everything ever.

[ She sighs, feeling kind of bitter.

She doesn't think it's necessary their fault and that they should have to feel shame over their circumstances. When it comes down to it, she never really wanted to join the Foundation in the first place, and she's honestly tired of following orders herself.

Especially when it winds up with innocents hurt and not being able to do anything about it. ]

Somehow I'm not surprised that they've been handling things just as poorly as usual.

[prayerwheel]

[ Azura doesn't respond to this, but she does breathe a sigh of relief. So, it wouldn't be a permanent death after all like Moriarty thought. Phew. ]

[overconfidant]

[Akira just nods a little and finds a corner to tuck himself into, arms wrapped around his knees.

This guy is a shitty liar so Akira believes him.]

[darkremnants]

[ Tipping his head towards Akira. ]

[overconfidant]

[Akira glances over at him and raises an eyebrow before shrugging.]
