Heart Soldier Senshi

[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. ]

[ UM

UMMMMM ]

What the heck is going on?

Re: Round 1 Discussion

[dragonheartedgirl]

Our hosts have escalated their nastiness, evidently.

[made_up_names]

[ Spidey shivers a little, holding his splinted arm closer. ]

Maybe - maybe people will be nicer to us since we broke stuff the first time?

[ He isn't sure he likes that outcome either. ]

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ yeah she's not counting on that. especially since they might think that we don't actually value our lives. --she will not point that possibility out to him, though. ]

.... Whatever the outcome, we need to be prepared to not take it personally. The rules are set up such that those who wish to defend themselves from attack must play their worst chips.

[made_up_names]

[ Yes please spare him a tiny amount of comfort. He'll need it, especially since with his broken arm he's probably last in line to take anything nasty tonight. ]

R-right. Yeah. If we all get mad at each other, then it just gets worse.

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ Reaching out to touch his shoulder. ]

It will be okay.

[ At least this round. Probably. ]

If these tiles are representative of the range of tiles currently available, then the likelihood everyone will escape without much damage as long as everyone plays cautiously is good.

[ and she does! have hopes. the people she's met have been good. it's really the next round she's more worried about.... ]

[made_up_names]

[ He nods a little at that, trying to look less worried. Feel less worried. ]

Yeah. Yeah, I guess you're right.

Game time, I guess.

[His arm's out of the splint, oddly enough. It looks fine now.]

[made_up_names]

What are we gonna do? Play as nice as we --

[ Wait. He stares at Hurricane's arm. ]

-- You're healed?

[crossmyheartandhope]

I was trying to find you. SensitIV's powers - they can heal stuff.

[made_up_names]

Like broken arms?

[ Obviously like broken arms jeez. ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Yeah. All kinds of things.

[Which may be why he isn't so surprised about that remove a limb thing.]

[made_up_names]

[ Oh. That. Thought occurs to him as well. ]

... I'll have to ask after the game. If they're not busy.

[crossmyheartandhope]

They're charging for it. Hadn't decided the fee yet, so I gave em an IOU, but the guy I talked to was really nice.

[Man, he hopes their team is okay. He hopes everyone's team is okay.]

[made_up_names]

What were they thinking about charging? Like, points and stuff?

[crossmyheartandhope]

Didn't say. They just said they weren't planning on it being too expensive.

[fiberoptic]

The real games are starting.

[made_up_names]

[ He can't really argue with that can he. Spidey nods a little, swallowing. ]

I guess I gotta be in good shape for stuff like this.
