POISON GAME: future is now

[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. ]

Did I pass the test?

Re: RESULTS

[metafaliure]

Obviously! If you found the elevator you get a passing grade!

Re: RESULTS

[scarvedforlife]

It wasn't a timed test? No points lost for taking a few seconds to react?

Re: RESULTS

[metafaliure]

There's room for improvement! Like your sass!!

[ TSUN TSUN TSUN bap bap bap she is wacking you but it is like being hit with a marshmallow ]

Re: RESULTS

[ much fierce. ]

I would never sass my dear unitmates!

Re: RESULTS

[metafaliure]

Well good! See that you don't!

Re: RESULTS

[scarvedforlife]

Yes, yes, waaatch your step here.

Re: RESULTS

[metafaliure]

I'm watching!

Well, I'm not watching actually because I'm blind! Don't be so insensitive!

Re: RESULTS

[scarvedforlife]

[ oh man snorts a laugh. ]

My mistake-!

Re: RESULTS

[metafaliure]

[ HUFF. ]

Don't repeat it! Let's go home.

Re: RESULTS

[scarvedforlife]

We're homeward bound, got it!

Re: RESULTS

[metafaliure]

And then this will probably wear off.

Re: RESULTS

[scarvedforlife]

Hopefully soon... the dorms kind of suck for being vision-impaired-friendly.

Re: RESULTS

[metafaliure]

[ STOMPS FOOT ]

I forgot! I forgot about how stupidly our dorm is designed!

Re: RESULTS

[scarvedforlife]

Maybe I can science up something for that too...

[ Like bumpers. Or a ball. ]

[ How mad will Bell be is the thought now. ]

Re: RESULTS

[metafaliure]

[ very, ]

If we get me a stick I'll be able to tell where things are at least.

Re: RESULTS

[scarvedforlife]

... I think I might also know another, more scientific way to keep you safe while you move around. In addition to the stick, so you'll have options!

Re: RESULTS

[metafaliure]

Good. I—

[ whoops doubles over and coughs up a shitload of yellow roses ]

Re: RESULTS

[scarvedforlife]

[ If anyone wanted to hear what actual panic sounded like from Shogun now is the time. ]

-- Bell? What- are you okay?

[ ARE YOU FILLED WITH ROSES IS THIS HOW YOU DIE AFTER ALL. ]

Re: RESULTS

[metafaliure]

[ maybe I am in fact filled with flowers and my guts are coming out

no just. cough cough sputter... spits out an errant rose petal... ]

—Someone write that down because that is NOT a normal reaction to most poisons.

Re: RESULTS

[scarvedforlife]

[ Laughing shakily. ]

It definitely isn't... Guess there's no such thing as a normal poison here.

... Should I pick those up?

Re: RESULTS

[metafaliure]

I don't know why you'd want to keep them? I threw them up, so aren't they gross?

Re: RESULTS

[scarvedforlife]

What if the poison turned your insides into flowers and we're currently looking at pieces of your liver right now?

Re: RESULTS

[metafaliure]

If my insides turned to flowers I'm going to die from that alone regardless of the coughing.

Re: RESULTS

[scarvedforlife]

Yeah but if we've got them in a bucket, Sensitiv can shove them back in if they change back.
