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. ]

DECISION

[idolpro]

[ Name the vial you will send and the unit you will send it to, and the vial you will keep to drink. Since this is a one-round game, there's no hard deadline; the game will end as soon as all units' decisions are in. ]

Looks like they're breaking us in right off the bat.

[ jesus fuck.

slapping cobalt's shoulder. ]

Voting this guy as "not it" for our poison tester. Anyone got any problems with that?

Re: DISCUSSION

[we_meet_again]

Maybe you should have waited one more day before coming back.

[ hair ruffle ]

Easy there Squeakers. Getting mad isn't going to help anybody.

Re: DISCUSSION

[heroicsacrifeyes]

[ohhhh god be calm for teammates be calm for teammates]

If this is supposed to be a welcome for us, they're doing a terrible job.

Re: DISCUSSION

[heroicsacrifeyes]

[BUT RAGE? I FEEL RAGE.

Trying to calm down anyway though h-huff.]

I don't like their idea of a welcome.

Re: DISCUSSION

[sleeplessknight]

[reaches for her hand]

I don't think they were trying to make a good impression.

Re: DISCUSSION

[neverbeentogeorgia]

What, and miss this fun little jamboree? Naw. Think I'll pass on another day in the rain. 'Sides, if I get poisoned, at least I won't have a head cold anymore.

Re: DISCUSSION

[we_meet_again]

But then someone else would have to do it and that's not any better.

Re: DISCUSSION

[malignstar]

I'm good with no. But that means we take the hit when there's only poison on our side.

Re: DISCUSSION

[neverbeentogeorgia]

I'm pretty sure this is basically nothing, by their standards. You're going to wear yourself out getting angry over every little thing.

Re: DISCUSSION

[lovescomplicated]

Deep breath.

Re: DISCUSSION

[we_meet_again]

[More or less doing the same]

M...maybe if we think this through, we can actually, like... not hurt anybody...?

Re: DISCUSSION

[we_meet_again]

What's your hot take on this, Lyra?

Re: DISCUSSION

[malignstar]

That, my good man, is where the game probably comes in.

Re: DISCUSSION

[sleeplessknight]

[that gets her to focus a bit, inhaling]

Hah... sorry.

[worldlyafflictions]

[I know how this is gonna go for us and I'm already resigned.]

So we're sending the antidote, huh. On the plus side, if everybody sends an antidote and drinks the water, we end with one antidote and one poison.

On the minus side we can only guess who's covered.
