CAPTIVE GAME: LiliS & Eichi

[idolpro]

[ You're in a room with no doors or windows, about the size of a living room. Depending on how many of you are around, it might feel a little cramped. The walls and ceiling are draped with fabrics, the floor covered in colorful rugs and piles of sitting cushions, but you can see the dirt ground and untreated wood walls peeking through in places. There are three or so oil lamps to light the space, each placed on a stump-like round little table that isn't big enough to hold much else. It's kind of cozy, but...

Most of the cushions are embroidered with an array of colors, but there's one pillow in particular, set aside from the rest, that's one solid color – Iris's position color. ]

[ on another pillow sits Eichi, with his ankles tied together and his hands bound behind his back. he's tied with normal, if sturdy rope with no magical properties, using normal, if sturdy knots. it's possible to untie him if you want. if he's particularly resourceful, it's also possible for his to escape. ]

[syckophant]

[Ah. Eichi. Is not entirely sure how to feel about this, but it makes sense for him, he supposes.]

It doesn't rain, it pours.

[He is not going to let anyone KNOW he's going to try to escape, but he will at least start moving his fingers to test things.]

[flamecursed]

Oh? You're not afraid?

[ that's at least a point in her book. ]

[syckophant]

Hmmm. No, this might as well happen.

[He's not NOT ANXIOUS, but also. Sometimes you've had a bad week so just put a cherry on top of the bad week sundae why not.]

I'm sure you'll make it sufficiently horrible, though.

[flamecursed]

[ ...that makes her feel a little bad. ]

So you understand the situation you've found yourself in.

[syckophant]

It's a game. So I'm mostly making assumptions.

[flamecursed]

[ Contemplative.

Could she explain that they need to get their teammate back? Yes. Is she going to bother with that? No. ]

Then make sure to bear what happens as best you can.

[syckophant]

That's my job, I assume??? I'll do the best I can for the sake of my unit.

[flamecursed]

Good.

[ Time to go discuss how to make a man cry, brb. ]

[syckophant]

[Sweet while y'all are chatting he's going to try to get out of his bonds. The minute eyes aren't on him he's trying to get his hands out from behind his back by curling up into a ball and trying to pull them under him.]

[busybreathing]

. . . do you want a hand?

[syckophant]

I don't know, I've already got two.

[He's flexible!!! So he'll get his hands in front of him if no one stops him. That's already more comfortable!]

...But...

It seems like you're the kind who'd like a bit of a fight, right? Fufufu~ We could get this game over more quickly if you'd let me out and let me make trouble for you.

[busybreathing]

I'm already playing the part of someone with no will~ so if your suggestion is to untie you, then give it a little more of a demanding tone of voice and maybe I'll obey.

[worthathousand]

...Bordeaux.

[ she dips her head politely, despite their circumstances.
then. a pause. ]

I could not face Ruby with pride if I did not do my best to look after you.

[syckophant]

That doesn't really seem in the spirit of the game! Besides, Ruby wouldn't get protective over me.

[worthathousand]

I don't live to serve. Not Yasuragi, either.

And I wouldn't think one of her own unitmates would be so mistaken about Ruby.
[ matter-of-fact; almost fond ] She would want to rip my throat out.

[syckophant]

You do not know my relationship with her.

[If anything she might get mad because he 'belonged to her' and was 'taken', but he's not assuming anyone would want revenge for him. And he wouldn't WANT them to.]

Well, if you just want to sit and chat, I'm fine with that too.

[worthathousand]

I suppose I don't know it. [ a bit softer ]
But I feel I know Ruby herself very well.

Regardless, I think you know as well as I that a chat will have to find a better time.

[ not TOO Eichi really but sort of directed towards him anyway ]

I wonder if it'll be necessary to break his hands and ankles to prevent escape, these ropes don't look that great. . .

Re: CAPTIVE

[worthathousand]

[ a little sharper than she normally is with him ] Don't talk like that.

We have more than enough options if it comes to it.
...I can't believe I'm actually wishing I had seeds right now.

Re: CAPTIVE

[busybreathing]

Everyone else wants to be good cop, so I'm going to be bad cop. But don't worry your pretty little head! I'm a team player that goes with the flow. Haven't you been told? What good is an opinion in such a space!

[syckophant]

Fufufu~

It may be~

[Not that he's ever escaped a rope before! But he is trying!]

[busybreathing]

Wah, good luck. I'm rooting for you.

[syckophant]

Thanks, I'll need it, probably?

[busybreathing]

[ is it winking if you only have one eye ]

Between you and me, luck is overrated.
