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. ]

...I suppose that's fair. Ultimately I don't care if they know it's from us or not, but your preference also makes sense.

Sorry. I don't want anyone to die, but I'm not close friends with anyone on another unit, like many of you are. So I'm trying to think of it as units. I don't think Heart Soldier Senshi will protect themselves.

And also... I don't think Cardigan would learn anything from this. They might see it as us repenting, and I don't want that either. I don't think we should do anything that makes us look like we're apologizing to them, not after being threatened.

[but he kind of already

heck]

All right. Please understand that my motivation is protecting someone I care about, not protecting Cardigan, but I do understand your logic.

[MAYBE SOMEONE SHOULD TELL SOL ABOUT IT...........]

I know. Maki has people like that too, right? And Yasuragi.

[UNFORTUNATELY YASUN DOESN'T WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW!!!]

Yes. I won't argue if we choose to protect someone else's important people, if we think they're in danger of being hit.

[#taisho]

Okay. I don't mind that either.

[hashtagaesthetic]

[#TAISHO]

Then we're agreed. At least, in a vague sense.

[bluerosestyle]

Let's hope no one needs ends up needing protection anyway.

[as if]

[hashtagaesthetic]

...If only it could work out so neatly.

[bluerosestyle]

We're doing our part to help and putting ourselves in others' hands. That's as much as we can do.

And even if we chose not to do it... People consent to these games. I don't know why everyone acts like they don't remember that part.
