graveyard part 2

[gamehead]

hunter's game the graveyard You wake up in an unfamiliar cabin. At first, it almost seems like you're in an entirely different place and that everything had been just a dream. The interior of the cabin looks nothing like the run-down, old-timey shacks that you had been living in before. Everything in here is sleek and modern, from the enormous flat-screen TV mounted on the wall to the fridge and mini-bars stocked with all your favorite foods. There aren't any individual rooms in here, just a common area large enough to house everyone comfortably, no matter how many more people join you...and there will be plenty more people joining you before the week is over. Because if you look outside the window, it quickly becomes clear that not only are you still in Prayer's Pass, but that you are no longer among the realm of the living. Judging from the tombstones directly outside, you're now in what had been the abandoned broken-down cabin in the graveyard. The cabin's not all that changed; the world outside has gone completely grey and everything you see appears to be faded and blurry. The only things that remain sharp and in color are what's inside the cabin, including your fellow ghosts. Occasionally, people who are still alive may enter, but it's clear that what they're seeing is completely different from what you're seeing. The door's unlocked; however, a mysterious force prevents you from stepping beyond the threshold, no matter how hard you may try. After all, this cabin is a cage for the dead - a gilded one, perhaps, but a cage nonetheless. On the flat-screen TV plays everything that is currently happening in the town. It will shut off once night starts...and something else will appear instead.

Critter seems to make concessions like this in light of how astonishingly incompetent our side has been. Like bringing Sanae Hanekoma back.

Is it cheating for Bruce to have had Ace in town with him?

[notyetlost]

It'd be cheating if he used Ace to further our side after he was de-- Bruce why didn't you think of that?!

[speakveryclearly]

The man voted for himself and refused to sway his son. I don't think swaying his dog was an option to him.

[notyetlost]

[AGH!]

Lithuania! [Poland shouts into the speakers.] Do not listen to the chameleon!

DO NOT LISTEN TO THE CHAMELEON!

[fortissimos]

He can't hear you.

[ tossing some popcorn at; GUESS WHO'S HAPPY ]

[speakveryclearly]

He gets like this a lot. You really just have to let him.

[SAYAKA YOU'RE BEING SUCH A LITTLE BITCH Kanaya loves it]

[fortissimos]

[ she is a teenager ]

I think I'm gonna enjoy this trial.

[speakveryclearly]

Something you said to Akane... the hostage killed you, huh? I can understand why you'd like to see his throat slit.

It implicates poor Touko, though... the same method they used for me.

[fortissimos]

Yeah, well... I was brainwashed, and even I wasn't that brutal. They don't have an excuse.

I think she'll get out of it, though. The hunters wouldn't poison one of their own.

[speakveryclearly]

How sure are we about that. This is the town we're talking about here. Three people voted for Akane yesterday.

[fortissimos]

[ FRUSTRATED GROAN thanks for that timely reminder ]

I've gotta hope for the best. [ Though she's running out of hope, and fast. ]

[speakveryclearly]

Hope......

Maybe Madoka can convince them of her innocence. I mean. She could convince me Bruce never meant me any harm and was the exemplar of your planet's morality.

[fortissimos]

And then she'll just make herself a bigger target.

[speakveryclearly]

[Brings hands to her face.]

If the prey's losing their bias against young girls - you, me, Rapunzel - and she doesn't have any wolf protecting her, there might not be much separating her from us...

[notyetlost]

This is ridiculous!

[fortissimos]

I think it's pretty funny.

Besides, isn't he prey? You should want him to listen to that thing.

[notyetlost]

... I guess technically it'd make him look better if he voted for someone who actually was a hunter. Maybe they'd finally get off his back.

[Poland's still a hunter though.]

[fortissimos]

And he can't hurt you or anything, so it's a win-win situation, right?

[ what do you mean they're talking about matters of life and death ]

[notyetlost]

I'm not worried about that!

[fortissimos]

Then smile about it! Geez, you should be happy that he's gonna be safer now.

[notyetlost]

Hmmph.

[Scavengers just don't understand. #huntersproblems]

[fortissimos]

Hey. Don't get all grumpy and stuff just because things aren't going your way.

[notyetlost]

I'm not grumpy! [He's grumpy.]

It's just this is usually around the time Polish Rule takes effect and stuff just starts going my way. I'm not used to this.

[Never play chess with Poland, Sayaka.]

[terryplz]

Ace is a very offensive dog. He would maul anyone who would do ill of me. It's why I asked Damian and then Mr. Tanaka to watch him in the event that I died.

[notyetlost]

[...ew.

Scary. Poland's always been more of a pony person, dogs were Lithuania's thing.]

Um. Isn't there anything he can do that's between doing nothing and full on mauling? And... what's the definition of doing you ill?

[Because the way that Steve guy keeps running his mouth it looks like he might get a chunk taken out his butt if slandering Bruce is included.]
