POISON GAME: pep!pep!

[idolpro]

[ The room is plain, white walls and white ceiling, except for the steel-panel flooring. There are three metal stands rising out of openings in the floor, each of which carries a glass vial on top. One of them just holds water. Of the remaining two, one contains a pale pink, opaque liquid with a creamy consistency; the next is tinged barely yellow like a weak tea, and would be almost completely transparent but for the pulp and fibers mixed in, drifting through it.

Both have flowers floated across the surface: the first a tiny sprinkling of cherry blossom petals; the second a small, but whole, bloomed lotus. They're cute and smell nice. ]

Are you talking about Taisho? Sunset said it was probably panic that made them do it, right? I doubt they'd double down when people are already so mad at them... but they may be a target, I guess. That's true!

[malignstar]

Actually no. I'm referring to ☆zrael. One of theirs attacked another unit outside of a game.

[we_meet_again]

...oh yeah.

[malignstar]

They probably face an even greater threat than Taisho. Despite all the commotion from the other day. ☆zrael makes no secret of how they view themselves. They're likely to keep their antidote too. Which may not help them if more than one team decides they are expendable.

[we_meet_again]

If ☆ZRAEL is sending their poison and keeping the antidote, doesn't it make more sense to send the antidote to their target, instead of them? Not that we know the target, necessarily, but we have a one in nine chance of guessing.

[malignstar]

You don't think the heroes, punks, wizards, healers and knights won't send their antidotes too? My best guess is they'll either protect each other or they'll protect Taisho because they know Taisho is in hot water right now.

[ Are we seriously thinking about sending our antidote to the psychos that tried to murder someone else in cold blood? cool cool cool ]

So we want to tie our fate to theirs?

[malignstar]

[ One psycho. ]

How do you figure? We lose our antidote no matter who gets it.

[worldlyafflictions]

[Definitely at least two]

If it ends up public knowledge who sent what where.

[malignstar]

I'm not ashamed to protect a team that is least likely to receive protection. Plus, there's the whole goodwill aspect. But if you guys want someone else, I'm listening.

[we_meet_again]

I mean... I don't want anyone to get hurt, if we can help it.
