killers - night seven

[guestcontrol]

special guests night seven 18 players remaining. There's no way to mark the passage of time after lights out, but it isn't long before the lightbulb in your bedroom flickers back to life, and your door unlocks. Make your way into the park; the door will unlock for you, and the path you need to take lights up with a dim red glow. When you reach the foot of the treehouse, a ladder has been dropped for you. Climb up and come inside. The interior of the treehouse has been made comfortable for you. There's an old map of the park on the wall, as well as the mounted and stuffed heads of cartoon animal costumes on the wall. The decor seems like something of a parody of an upscale hunting lodge, and you're welcome to sit by the fire and enjoy snacks from back home, or relax in one of the outdoor hammocks. Enjoy yourself as you decide who to kill. After all, you're in on a little secret - none of this is real, and it's all part of a fun little game from which everyone, winners and losers alike, will wake up. current character statuses rulebook profiles All night votes will be due October 9 by 4 PM EST.

Mmm. [ a nod in agreement ] That'll take care of Belgium. She likely has a partner, so what about them? My well of ideas has just about dried up.

[cheats]

Hmmm...

[ It takes him a minute, but eventually he offers up with a cool expression: ]

Poison. Just a bit of monkshood and they'll die in about fifteen minutes, but it's still an agonizing process, from what I understand. It is quick, relative to other poisons, but that death will seem slow, and they are more likely to die from choking.

[ He won't say on what... ]

[ineptus]

That sounds really awful...so...I guess that would work, wouldn't it?

[Why would you ever want to kill someone like that that's so horrible....]

[cheats]

[ Ciel grimaces, since this is hardly something he wants to expose someone as sweet as Mabel to, and this is why he hadn't wanted to convert her in the first place, but... Still, somehow, he's glad that she's here, if for different reasons. ]

...So it would seem. If we want to follow Crocs' advice. We could still wake him up with less of a pinch, I suppose, but... Letting them wake up more gently is probably better.

[ineptus]

Well...I want them to wake up as best as possible. I don't think they'd be very happy if we "killed" them and then they had a horrible wake up too. They'd probably be really grumpy! So...whatever we have to do to make sure they're all waking up on the right side of the bed!

[cheats]

[ and yes, this is it, this is why mabel is here... ]

[ Ciel laughs softly and nods. ]

That is true... They might be grumpy regardless, considering what it takes to wake up, but I suppose so long as we avoid the majority of it, they're likely better off.

[ineptus]

Yeah, but I bet they won't be grumpy for very long. All of their friends will be there! And everything will be explained and they get to have a good laugh at what a dumb game this really was. And if they're still grumpy when we wake up I'll just give them a big hug and I'm sure that'll cheer them right up! So...we don't have anything to worry about except waking them up.

[There's a confident nod to go along with this statement.]

[cheats]

[ That just makes Ciel smile fondly, and he nods. He's not sure if he can agree if that's what it's like, but he's also a very cynical person. Though when it comes to Mabel, he hardly wants to crush that optimism. ]

That is true. It is good that we have someone so thoughtful looking after everyone, really.

[ He cants his head lightly, as if suddenly reminded of something. ]

By the way... Ibuki asked me to take her spot in the knitting lessons. I can promise no skill, but this my promise to her is one I plan to keep, if you would not mind me trying.

[ineptus]

[She doesn't mean for it to, but her smile from before looks a little sad when he says that.]

Of course I wouldn't mind! Anyone who wants to learn I am willing to teach! There won't be a whole lot of time tonight to learn though, huh?

[cheats]

[ He shakes his head, but it's with an easier smile as if to help her feel more at ease. ]

I suppose not, but that's fine. To be honest, I am... Well, such tasks are not exactly suited to a nobleman, so I would be rather poor at it regardless.
