FORESIGHT=DEAD END

[idolpro]

[ Everything fades to black...and you awaken in prison.

You're wearing raggedy versions of your team uniform and a newspaper informs you that you are currently in %COUNTRYNAME% in the year %CONTEMPORARY%+1. The newspaper is otherwise actually fairly unhelpful, aside from something detailing the results of a recent attempt at revolt in a city in %COUNTRYNAME%: worker’s success at managing a nearby gold mine led to dreams of every man being a king - the revolutionaries may have been successful had it not been for a concurrent jailbreak and mass slaughter putting local authorities on alert, buying time for military intervention - the town was nearly levelled to the ground, with few survivors.

But you seem to remember - you survived, didn’t you? Well, some of you just died of alcohol poisoning, actually.

...Also, below the main headline about the failed revolution, there's something about Those Who Crave Hands? Huh.

Anyways, you've got marketing to do! ]

Are you fucking kidding me.

[he's. going to lose his temper here.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[justfuckingtryit]

Which part, the bullshit setup, or the extra company?

Re: DISCUSSION

[mind_blown]

The setup.

And already the teens are volunteering to step up for the adults.

[he doesn't want to die, but also he doesn't want the teens to die for him.]

Re: DISCUSSION

Original cast member is allowed to volunteer no matter his age, thanks.

Re: DISCUSSION

[mind_blown]

I don't give a shit about how long you've been here. Kids shouldn't be dying for adults.

Re: DISCUSSION

[criminaljustice]

At this point, I'm barely a kid and I've died more times than you in games already.

Also, vetoing you dying since you already went through shit this past week while I've been stuck playing videos games for half a month.

[he is-- going to exhale slowly, pinching the bridge of his nose.]

And that's the fucking problem-- it's not a fucking competition. We need to play like we want no one to die-- but it shouldn't be kids falling on their swords for people like me.

Re: DISCUSSION

[criminaljustice]

That's not what I said. But you also need to know your limits. I don't go looking to die when I've been back to back terrible, nor would anyone let me in that case. So why should I let you?

Re: DISCUSSION

[justfuckingtryit]

You know you having died a lot doesn't make it more okay. Right?

Re: DISCUSSION

[kingofexplodokills]

If people wanna step up they should have the chance to regardless of age. 's not like sitting by and watching is any fucking better, y'know.

Re: DISCUSSION

[mind_blown]

You wanna be useful? Don't throw yourself on the sword just to prove how brave and strong you are.

Re: DISCUSSION

[kingofexplodokills]

I know. I'm not over here volunteering my ass. Someone's gonna have to make it out of here in one fucking piece to buy replacement and get healers. And I got the points to spare.

But I'm just fucking saying. If I wanted to go you wouldn't fucking stop me.

Re: DISCUSSION

[mind_blown]

Bet.

[he is so insanely tense right now, and absolutely not yielding]

Re: DISCUSSION

[irregular]

Let's just submit that.

Re: DISCUSSION

[mind_blown]

We're not getting a kid killed to be sarcastic shits.

Re: DISCUSSION

[irregular]

Wait, who's going up?

Re: DISCUSSION

[mind_blown]

[gestures at Scythe, clearly pissed.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[afailedmurder]

...I do hope it's not us that you're objecting to.

Re: DISCUSSION

[mind_blown]

Why would I object to you?

Re: DISCUSSION

[afailedmurder]

[shrug]

I can't think of a specific reason, but the game seems fairly par for the course, so I thought it worth asking.

Re: DISCUSSION

[mind_blown]

It's been an eventful number of days. Would've liked a longer break.

Re: DISCUSSION

[afailedmurder]

Ah... yes, that's fair.

[thumbs up, now to go yell at all the kids on my unit]
