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.

[ ?!?! ]

Wh— No! No, why can't it be that I don't have a crush on anyone? And besides that, he's a boy!

He's Ibuki's fiance!

[ no ]

Yes, see! Oz is engaged too!!

[ sorry oz ]

Let's have a double wedding, Ciel-chan!

It doesn't count if Oz doesn't know about it yet! ...Just a friendly reminder.

He totally knows Ibuki is his fiancee! She told him on the first day!

[ poor oz ]

This is ridiculous! Why are you taking Oz being engaged to Ibuki more seriously than my legitimate engagement to Lizzy!?

[ this mafia is full of coldblooded killers, seriously ]

[ how many dokis will lizzy have by the end of game... ]

Lizzy-chan?! What a cute name! What's she like?!

[ many dokis ]

[ except, no, wait, he didn't want to talk about lizzy either. This plan, as all of Ciel's temper tantrum plans, backfires greatly, and he just turns red... ]

She's— She's going to be my wife... That's enough about her!

[ ciel why can't you admit this stuff this freely when she's there to hear it... ]

Awww! Ciel-chan must love her a lot!

Sh- She's to be my wife! That has nothing to do with it!

[ ibuki why ]

Huh?! A marriage without love?!

[ CIEL NO ]

Well, of course... Noblemen don't marry for love.

[ He does really like Lizzy though, so. But love is still a strong word... He's 13 and what is this ]

Forming important attachments is the most important thing we can do for our cause. We can't be too outspoken on our own behalves, so we have to mobilize friends to defend us.

[also ciel is cute when he's flustered]

I don't have friends.

[ who's a mr. grumpy gills

it's ciel ]

That's why we're helping you make some!

[...for a liberal definition of help]

Anyway, you always have us!

[ AGGRESSIVELY RESISTS FRIENDSHIP...

By which I mean Ciel sort of grumbles to himself, but then picks up his tea and takes a sip as he seems to calm down a little. ]

Yes, well. We are a team.

[note to self ciel deflects awkward moments by pretending to be interested in his tea]

Just a team?

[ wow he's not pretending!! ]

...Well, yes. We're just working together. [ this is a powerful tsun ]

...This could be the last time we talk for several weeks, you know.

[/readies the guilt trip laser]

[ This definitely does not go as planned, because Ciel's face darkens, and his voice becomes terse. This is legitimate anger rather than a huffy little tantrum. ]

I am aware, thank you. Don't patronize me by trying to guilt me into anything.

[She seems surprised.]

Alright, alright!

It might be easy to tease you just because you're young... but I guess that's not fair to your situation, whatever it might be.

I'm just saying, it's not bad to be a 13-year-old sometimes.

No, it is.

[ He seems very firm on that subject, so clearly, this is a more serious conversation to him than most of the ones he's had here. ]

I am the Earl of Phantomhive. I earned that title, I did not have it automatically bequeathed to me upon the death of my father. I have no chance to be a boy, and I would have it no other way. I have work to do, and that is what I am working for in earnest here.

[Seriousness is something that has generally been in short supply in this clubhouse. Edea seems even more surprised, though her expression will become a little more subdued.]

Would you believe me... if I said I never had a chance to be a child, either?

To take the time to laugh and smile with my friends wasn't something I had until a few months ago. But that's why... I must treasure it all the more, even in the midst of all this.

I would.

[ His voice is a touch softer, but only slightly. ]

But then you should understand as well why my resolve won't waver. I'm not able to do it either, especially not now. If we win, then...

[ He hesitates, because it's not simple. If he wins, he'll achieve his goal with his own hands, certainly, but that means that there's an end in sight that he prefers not to think about. So instead, he lies. ]

...Then I will have time to laugh and smile with friends. Until then, I cannot falter.
