POISON GAME: avante en garde

[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. ]

Anyway, ideas for who to send the antidote to?

... sending it to Taisho would help show we're willing to play by our own rules.

[but also that only benefits me who has a dragon on that team.]

Or a unit we have more people we care about on?

[knightceties]

HSS? AlcheME? Those're the only ones I can think of...

[haktualdragon]

Heart Soldier Senshi would get my vote.

[duh.]

[knightceties]

[Ace is Aware]

They're too nice to be getting poison. But then, so is AlcheME.

[unbr8kable]

If they give away their antidote, they're still gonna die. Heart Soldier'll definitely give theirs away.

[just sayin]

[knightceties]

Only if someone sends them poison. What do you think, is there someone who will do that?

[unbr8kable]

They're sending themselves poison. Doesn't everybody have poison?

[knightceties]

I guess you could, but why?? If someone's going to send an antidote, they can just keep the water and eliminate the poison altogether.

[unbr8kable]

[water






wait what]

[knightceties]

There's three vials.

[unbr8kable]

Oh. No big deal, then, I guess. Um.

[knightceties]

[going in for a hair ruffle]

That's okay~

[unbr8kable]

[why this. submits to it with surprisingly little complaint though]

. . .

[knightceties]

[YESSSS

Nem has soooo much hair to ruffle, this is great]

[unbr8kable]

[whines a bit but makes no move to escape]

I'm not some little kid, y'know...

[knightceties]

[finishes with a gentle pat]

Nemesis is a good kid.

[unbr8kable]

What did I just say...

[knightceties]

You're all little compared to me~

[unbr8kable]

Maybe you're just too big.

[pauses]

...So, how do you think this's gonna fall out? I wasn't thinking about people getting to just ditch their poison.

[knightceties]

It's hard to say... Everyone's going to thinking about who's going to need protection from the ones who will try to keep their antidotes. So the question is, will we get enough antidotes to cover the poisons we'll probably get? That's the tricky part, really.

[unbr8kable]

I object to being the better man. They're just gonna twist it anyway. Send it to Heart Soldier or nerd team, or Stabsrael if we wanna be pricks about it.

[haktualdragon]

My vote'd be Heart Soldier Senshi, personally.

But just for the record, I have someone I know back home on Taisho and he even has managed to wrangle Yasuragi so what happened in the last game won't happen again.

[unbr8kable]

Doesn't change anything in this case, but cool if it's true.

I don't have a problem with Heart Senshi.

[surprising no one]

[haktualdragon]

[and I managed to point out to leader that Zrael might target HSS. goooooo team.]

Yeah, wasn't really looking to change it for this case, but I trust Shuten to have a handle on things.

[unbr8kable]

[i was unnecessarily snippy about something I misunderstood, goooo team]

[shrugs]

That'd be a nice change of pace.
