Yvette's super fun spy simulator: Session II

Objective: Convince Yvette to leave the Ideal World.
The following is ICly known:
  • Unit abilities are off
  • Yvette is actively trying to sabotage players
  • One tactic is making interaction "pay for play," using memories, specifically those of Yvette. (max 5)
  • False memories will not be accepted as Payment.
  • Alternate Payment is negotiable, but will also result in forgetting what is paid (roll 1d6 with a score of 4 or higher for an accepted alternate payment)
  • Use of force is highly inadvisable, and the condition for success is extremely low. Failure will result in a false memory.
  • Your smartphone works, and can be used to document inconsistencies in the Ideal World.
tl;dr The more evidence you collect, the more convincing you are; memories can be used to fast track, but if they run low, you get mindfucked.
All things lost or received during the game will be reversed upon waking or within one IC day, at player’s discretion. The character does not know this ICly.

Yvette, as much as I care for you, and I do dearly even if you don't recall it, I will not give you my memories. I would not even give them to Hell.

[When you give yourself a big, old handicap in the game.]

What other forms of payment would you accept?

Knowledge then. There are many frivolous details about the shards I could do without.

You wish to serve drinks, well, I suppose I could teach you the mixes and flavors of the stars I've been to. Or rather give it to you. It would be unique just for your customers.

[Lightly kicking the stack of cardboard with his heel. Sorry if that is your ribs, Bob.

And offering one Encyclopedia Alcoholic Drinks of Eorzea (and probably it'll come with his home world ones, too).]

"Thank you for your patronage!" she says, as she swiftly fans out a deck of cards.

"Please choose a card."

"Please look at the card and memorize it."

She squares up the deck and sets it on the bar between them.

"When you're finished, return the card to the deck and shuffle it as many times as you'd like."

[Eight of clubs, and he does as requested and shuffles the deck. Normally. No Yu-gi-oh shuffling trickery here! He places the deck back on the counter.]

She shuffles the deck and cuts it once, twice, and three times. When she spreads the deck out on the table, it's in perfect sequential order, but the eight of clubs is missing.

"Is your card there?"

It is not. Are you going to pull it out from behind my ear?

"No."

She walks a few yards over to the bar refrigerator, and fetches a bucket of lemons.

"Pick a lemon."

The lemon he selects does not appear to be tampered with in any way, shape or form. It is just an ordinary lemon. She hands him a knife.

"Please cut it open for me."

[Considering all the magic and weird things that happen in games, this shouldn't be that outlandish. But for some reason it is.

He nods and does as requested.]

Quite an involved trick.
tradesecret: (z) That sounds like a confession to me.)

"The trick has a better effect when the audience thinks they have more control."

As you cut through the lemon, it hits something. In the middle is your card, folded neatly into quarters. Upon pulling the card from the citrus, your mind is filled with the knowledge of how the trick is performed, and you're confident your fingers have the deftness to replicate it perfectly.

[He does unfold the cards with a bit of a surprised look.]

Well played. Well played, indeed.

One more thing. Well, perhaps, two. You don't remember me, do you?

"I will have to consult Management regarding shift coverage first."

[[ furi: she's not leaving. ]]

She doesn't say much after that, and goes back to serving cardboard customers.

You may advance to Combat, take a Break, Study, or practice Acting.
