WILD CITY

[idolpro]

[ The elevator opens up to a room spacious enough to house the whole unit comfortably, but with no furniture to speak of except a touchscreen podium near the far wall, displaying a row of four larger-than-life mahjong tiles on a red background. On the left side of the screen is a square that says TRADE. The walls and floor of the room are nearly checkered with metal panels, out of place against the rest of the marble flooring and unremarkable off-white walls.

The elevator doors close behind you. ]

Exciting isn't the word I would use.

It feels like an opportunity. Something opening up before us, even if it’s a toothy maw.

Re: ROUND 1

[zugzwange]

Would you say ‘tense’ or ‘frightenjng’?

Re: ROUND 1

[leaveshishaton]

Oi, I don't get it.

Re: ROUND 1

[zugzwange]

Let the adults talk.

Re: ROUND 1

[shutthefoxup]

Tense maybe? You seem really relaxed though.

Re: ROUND 1

[leaveshishaton]

Don't fucking ignore me! What the hell is going on?

Re: ROUND 1

[zugzwange]

[ ignores ]

Re: ROUND 1

[leaveshishaton]

Haruto!

Re: ROUND 1

[zugzwange]

What part is confusing, little sheep?

Re: ROUND 1

[leaveshishaton]

Every part of it, you damn useless octopus.

Are they really threatening to take our fucking ears off?

Re: ROUND 1

[zugzwange]

Only if it goes through. If it doesn’t then whoever is safe. So it depends on who plays what and what’s higher and so forth. Did you even read the instructions?

Re: ROUND 1

[leaveshishaton]

They were hard to understand. But I got this is 'an attack'.

Re: ROUND 1

[zugzwange]

It’s fairly straight forward.

Re: ROUND 1

[shutthefoxup]

Hi Bo, how are you today? Nice weather we're havin'.

Re: ROUND 1

[leaveshishaton]

Don't give me that shit.

Re: ROUND 1

[shutthefoxup]

Rude, Bo. Real rude. Feelin' super attacked over here.

Re: ROUND 1

[leaveshishaton]

Well at least you haven't lost an ear.

Re: ROUND 1

[shutthefoxup]

Yet. If we're pickin' teams for something like that, you know they gotta be possibly pickin' somethin' worse for us.

Re: ROUND 1

[leaveshishaton]

...this is supposed to be a fucking idol show, they wouldn't do it, right?

Re: ROUND 1

[shutthefoxup]

So is our plan for all of this basically gonna be 'pick the highest number'? So ours'll be accepted and we'll be protected?

Re: ROUND 1

[zugzwange]

That seems to be the premise. Unless we want to throw or try to get a nine in a trade.

Re: ROUND 1

[shutthefoxup]

Nah, chances of gettin' an eight or nine would be pretty low.

Re: ROUND 1

[zugzwange]

There’s some other nuances to the game if we want to play it that way. But it seems straight forward and stupid is the best way to play this first perilous exchange. Seeing how the others react will give us ground in the future.

Re: ROUND 1

[shutthefoxup]

Makes sense, I guess. Any thoughts on how you think the other units are gonna play?
