special guests - night three

[guestcontrol]

special guests night three 41 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 September 28 by 6 PM EST.

I could try though! I mean there's no harm in trying...

Maybe if I told her Edea was someone important?

[poyoyon]

If it wouldn't put Mabel-chan in danger, anyway!! Since we might lose Edea-chan, it'd be best if we could arm her to take out one of our worse enemies beforehand! ...And then it would be fine if she never gave out keys again, Ibuki guesses?

[ looks around for ciel tbh he's the brains with anise...or royce or patchy... ]

i'll move this here

[cheats]

...Just how adamant?

[ Ciel speaks up with a serious expression, since now he's getting to scheming. ]

If she thought she was giving it to someone safe, would she consider it? Because if you're a detonator... That could give us a way to take out the dog. Edea is one potential, that's true, but if this gambit worked, there's another possibility that could work. If you could convince Nanami to give it to the person we planned to kill, then we could steal it from them an detonate it later. Though Edea would work as well, admittedly, since if her status is known... She will not last long, to be frank.

[ineptus]

Well...she doesn't think we can trust anyone. She's worried we'll give it to one of you guys or to someone who'll use it on a whim or to someone who's just crazy and will use it just because. She wouldn't even give it to my brother when I mentioned he'd try and protect us no matter what. She just told me he'd turn on me if he had to.

So I'd have to have really good proof that we could trust whoever I was suggesting.

[cheats]

Tch...

[ Ciel clicks his tongue, since he agrees, actually, but that's disappointing. He was hoping for someone more gullible. ]

I don't disagree with her, unfortunately. But I hate leaving that dog around. It's an irritation in the first place, but with the role it has, it'll be trusted immediately.

[ineptus]

She said she wanted to protect the two of us first and foremost. Maybe that would help somehow? Sorry I can't be of much help really...

[ionicwoman]

[Offering cake!]

No, Marvelous Mabel, you're doing great! ♥ We just have to figure out how to move.

[ineptus]

[TAKING CAKE! And smiling.]

Thank you Amazing Anise!

[edealistical]

Mabel...

Your partner is essentially sided with us now, in a sense. If the guests win, she will die since the condition is to remove us all. The only way she can survive is if we win.

We may be able to openly speak of this and tell her straight out that it's in her best interest to aid us.

[ineptus]

...I'd be worried to, because she really doesn't seem fond of them. But I don't think she'd tell anyone either...she's said multiple times that she doesn't want to die because I'm an idiot.

[poyoyon]

...That's a pretty good point! If Nanami-chan doesn't side with us, she really will wake up super early...and she'll think it's dying.

[ Could they really just strong arm her into it... ]

[cheats]

[ Hearing this part, Ciel nods, since he can see an angle here, at least. ]

If that's the case... Edea might have a point. If she just doesn't want to die, then what Edea says is true. Now she will, unless she cooperates.

[ He seems to be thinking of something else, then shakes his head ]

What do you think, Mabel? Do you think if you told her you had been converted and none of our identities, would she protect herself?

[ineptus]

[Mabel gives this some thought, pursing her lips and rubbing at her forehead a little.]

Well, I can at least try!

[poyoyon]

If Nanami-chan went along with it, she should give the key to Edea-chan! If what happened to Yuya-chan wasn't what happens when the key goes off, it's safer to have someone the detective might've found out test it, right?

[ineptus]

Okay! I will tell her that! You can count on me!

[cheats]

[ He nods in agreement. ]

Mm. For better or worse, it seems that Edea will be the first to wake up... And even if it doesn't work, hopefully Nanami will want to protect her own life.

[ineptus]

Hopefully...I'll work all of my Mabel charm!

[cheats]

[ That gets him to smile again! Wow Mabel, you're getting more smiles in like five minutes than he's given in the entire game so far... ]

Well, perhaps that should suffice. It's what brought you to us, after all.

[edealistical]

And if you tell her the truth - about how the only way everyone will truly be saved from this park is if we win - I bet she'll come around, too! She can't say no to wanting everyone to wake up....

[cheats]

[ whoops bye smile... ]

No, I disagree. What we know to be true will sound utterly mad to them.

[edealistical]

I'm not so sure... We've all supposedly been kidnapped and brought here from different places. It's not so much of a stretch to believe that this isn't all what it seems to be - the situation is already mad.

Dying in a dream always means you wake up.

[and it's true anyway!!!]

[ineptus]

[She has that effect on people. He's just getting a bright smile at that. Hell yes, she has all of the charm.]
