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. ]

DECISION

[idolpro]

[ Name the vial you will send and the unit you will send it to, and the vial you will keep to drink. Since this is a one-round game, there's no hard deadline; the game will end as soon as all units' decisions are in. ]

Nice and simple this time, huh?

Re: DISCUSSION

[haktualdragon]

... so the solution is drink the water, send antidote to a unit.

Re: DISCUSSION

[calmthefoxdown]

[ At one point in my life here I believed that would be the clear and easy solution, but now... ]

Do we believe that's how everyone will play?

Re: DISCUSSION

[calmthefoxdown]

[ Ah, so this is how I die. By poison. ]

So this game purely depends on whether people value others, or winning.

Re: DISCUSSION

[haktualdragon]

If they're smart.

But there's not a whole lot of smart types. So...

If we get a poison, I'll volunteer to drink it.

[knightceties]

What happens if we get sent poison?

[knightceties]

[only if I don't drink it first]

Re: DISCUSSION

[calmthefoxdown]

... Do you think our healing ability works on poison?

[haktualdragon]

[i mean. up for that race.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[haktualdragon]

That's assuming our abilities are still in effect.

Re: DISCUSSION

[unbr8kable]

Don’t a lot of em?

[knightceties]

I dunno... I don't think anyone's ever tried.

Re: DISCUSSION

[calmthefoxdown]

Sort of. There's a clear way out in this one; the only reason someone would send off a poison is to win, revenge, or if they think poison will be sent their way.

Re: DISCUSSION

[calmthefoxdown]

If the poison is slow-acting, maybe we'll have enough time to use it afterward.

[ Most likely not but. ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[haktualdragon]

It's possible...

Anyway, first we gotta figure out which is the poison and which is the antidote, right?

[calmthefoxdown]

Should we try a small test to see if our abilities even work?

[knightceties]

[look let Ace drink, you can help Nemesis and Gold cope better than Ace can]

That might get tricky if we get more than one... I wonder if Mr. Mukuro will let just one person drink them all?

[knightceties]

I don't think it matters. We knows there's one of each, we can just say what we'll keep and let Mukuro sort it out.

[knightceties]

If it's abilities in general, we can just try Living Forge.

Re: DISCUSSION

[unbr8kable]

Do we get extra points for getting poisoned for all three?

[haktualdragon]

I mean... if you think that's how it goes, I'm fine with that.

[haktualdragon]

[... gdit. why do you have to make a fair point htere.]

Who knows? He'll probably clarify when it happens.

Re: DISCUSSION

[calmthefoxdown]

We'll probably get to find out.
