POISON GAME: Taisho Roman Revolution

[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. ]

No.

Isn't that only fair? It'll be intended for me.

Re: DISCUSSION

[furrytailprince]

I will drink everything in this room before I allow you to sacrifice yourself over something that should be resolved.

Re: DISCUSSION

[sonof]

Then who would you prefer to drink it, Kambi? You? Just about everyone here would say the same, I should think.

Re: DISCUSSION

[furrytailprince]

I already answered your question.

Re: DISCUSSION

[sonof]

Because you yourself would be satisfied if you protected everyone else here. Frame it as my punishment to rob me of my right to do the same, and I suppose I'll have to concede, then.

Re: DISCUSSION

[furrytailprince]

You have already protected others in the past. You do not need to do so every time. Nor will I allow it while you are seeing it as something else.

Re: DISCUSSION

[sonof]

It hasn't been nearly every time.

And I don't feel the least bit guilty for what I did, so you can all stop acting as though I'm trying to make up for anything.

Re: DISCUSSION

[furrytailprince]

It does not matter if it has not been every time. You are not the only one capable of protecting people on this unit. It is not entirely your burden.

I do not care whether you feel guilty. You are an enigma and a frustrating one at the moment. But I still will not allow you and Kuzuebiko to constantly so readily place yourselves in harm's way. I tire of it.

Re: DISCUSSION

[sonof]

Then let us keep the antidote and none of us will be in harm's way.

Re: DISCUSSION

[furrytailprince]

I do not wish to send poison if it is not necessary.

Re: DISCUSSION

[sonof]

It's done with now, regardless.
