[IC] [Captain Hook/Sea Witch Game]

[WHERE GOOD DECISIONS WILL BE MADE

and probably battler will cry a lot]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[is shockingly not crying yet! just kind of. freaking out a little]

[ssssigghhhh snapping her fingers in rapid succession to get attention]

Hey, Earth to Battler.

Wh- [attention get!] Oh. R-right. We're supposed to decide.

[observing carefully]

Yeah... ... Either way, it'll only last for the game, right?

Probably. I'll do it, either way.

... Just like that?

I've died a bunch of times before. One more isn't really a big deal.

[...]

Just don't expect me to argue it, if you're offering.

Glad to hear it. It would suck if we got into a fight over something like this.

I'm not so interested in a chance to die that I'd fight you for it. Did you want to try making an offer?

[Shrug]

I don't really have anything to offer.

It's not like there's specifications about what kind of offer it has to be, so it shouldn't have to be something material. Like a secret, or giving up a sense for a day, something like that could work...

We'd need to be sure that it would work, though, or we'll both get killed. Do you have any idea what kind of things these Personae might value...?

It's only a problem if the bargain falls through and we haven't made a choice as a back-up, right? At any rate, I couldn't say, exactly... The Personae are all individuals, fairly different in methods and what they value. I don't know anything about these two, so I can only guess what they'd consider worthwhile. Judging from the set-up so far... maybe "sacrifice," something like that.

Yeah, that makes sense. If the offer's supposed to be the same value as a life...it'd have to be something important, right? A valued memory or something?

Probably something like that... Though I'd be careful with that kind of thing. Safest to assume losing something like that would be permanent. Moreso than death would be, here.

Maybe we shouldn't risk it. I'd rather get killed temporarily than lose any of my memories forever.

I'd say the same. [sighs and runs a hand through her hair] It doesn't really seem like a game designed to have an easy way out, at any rate.

So maybe the best solution really is just to...

[...picking up the vial with shaking hands] This has to be poison, right?

I can't imagine what else it would be.

[... watching those hands...]

[that sure is some really obvious shaking going on there! he doesn't seem to notice it himself though...]

I wonder if it's the kind that kills you painlessly. I wouldn't mind that.

... Hey, Battler. Just who are you trying to impress?

...What? What are you talking about?

We're offering to fake my death. To make it look like I died as a result of the game--as long as that's feasible given how the executions are going to play out, of course--although no harm of any sort can have actually come to either of us under these conditions, okay? Of course, that means plenty of acting and lying in front of the people who would be concerned, especially Kunzite. It'd remove all the messy parts, but leave the consequences and add the pressure of lying to those people. A bit of well-intentioned betrayal, if you would♪

Failing that, we're killing Battler.

((Rating is 7, for both.))

When you step out of it, you find yourself back in the ring. What you offered was accepted and is now gone. ]

((OOC: There is space for both fall out and Endgame. It would be to your benefit to participate in fall out. All revivals happen a few IC hours later in endgame.))
