The Last Supper - future is now

[ The elevator lets you out into a private room: from the decor, it is doubtlessly an enclave of the restaurant you saw earlier on screen.

Your phones have filled with a rather sizable rule list. ]

[yeah he... might have vetoed Hurricane because he thinks he's nice but otherwise...]

Who we're sending out?

I'd suggest Angel.

[holds up a hand]

And before you consider me cruel for even thinking of the idea, it makes the most strategic sense. ☆ZRAEL already knows she's a demon. You, myself and the new guy are still wild cards in that respect.

Though, that may be less of an issue now that fights aren't public, I feel-- with one round left after this one-- it's best to keep as many trump cards in our hand as possible.

[i'm here i've totally been here!!!

tenses up because he doesn't like the idea but he can't argue with her logic]

How much longer is this likely to last?

[she isn't too terribly fond of it either despite making the suggestion, but it IS strategic]

. . . I suppose it depends on how precise the attackers are this round. The rules mention four rounds maximum, but the game can end early if half of the playing units have lost their Hearts.

And two 'hearts' have died already?

So it seems. I'm a little surprised; I wouldn't have pegged Silk as the Heart for her unit.

I don't know her but... isn't that idea behind choosing the heart?

If this is going to be the last round, I'd rather go in Angel's place. I agree it's not the most strategic for a longer run but if they don't guess today they aren't likely to.

Or we could abstain.

[!!!]

Uho, now there's a fun idea! I would enjoy watching ☆ZRAEL lose control of themselves.

[infinity this is not a game!!]

[just shakes his head at her hand it's fine really]

I'm not going to protest your choice. I don't like it, but as you say, no one knows the identity of the rest of us yet.

Well. . . truthfully, it isn't my choice.

[glancing over at Angel]

I won't force her to go. Nor will I stop you or the new kid if you'd rather go in her stead.

Of course, I meant your choice of logic. No one is forcing anyone to do anything.

Correct! Well--

Us being forced into playing this game aside.

[that doesn't count and you know it]

Yes.

Okay.

[. . . WELL THAT WAS QUICK]

Not even a teensy protest? You are injured.

I know. That means it would be better if I went because someone will have to take us home, right?

[pauses and hesitates]

. . . It doesn't mean I will give up . . .

You don't strike me as the giving up type.

[. . .]

Well! As I told the other two, the decision is yours. I'll let the three of you chat it out.

Angel...

Are you certain?

Mmm . . . yes. It is okay.

[nods, then]

Just make sure you're doing it not for our sake but by your own choice.

I don't agree with it.

. . . huh?

You've already been hurt by this, and you've lost people you're close to. I've done nothing but stand on the sidelines.

If we want to send someone out, I'll go. But we could also just let the other team go berserk, and then target which one of them doesn't transform.

I-

I don't want to do that! That'd be hurting a lot more people than we are already hurting.

[taps fingers together nervously.]
