WED BED BEHEAD: BARiTONES

[You wake alone with your unit in what appears to be a dressing room. There's nothing on the costume racks right now, but you have vanity seats and a couch to chill on if you like.

On a table in the center of the room, there is an ornate metal box with three slots on top. The slots are labeled with the names of three other units: sensitIV, BAD END=DEAD END, & future is now. Next to the box a laminated copy of the IC rules is taped down, and beside it lie four cards:

♦ a green card with a picture of two linked rings and the word "WED"
♦ a blue card with a picture of a rose and the word "BED"
♦ a red card with a picture of a guillotine and the word "BEHEAD"
♦ a purple card with a picture of two circling arrows and the word "INSTEAD"

You have til 9pm PST to submit your votes.]

Wedding future, bedding sensitiv. And beheading bad end is the current consensus.

You should voice your dissent if you have it.

I want...for Bad End to suffer less, but SIV does so much for everyone despite often being so very hurt themselves.

As Eichi says, there are no good answers.

Knowing that, what would you pick anyway?

...To switch BAD END and SensitIV.

That is what I thought.

But you will not argue for it?

Everyone matters. My feelings don't.

Your feelings most certainly do. Even in the likely case of them not swaying the outcome, they do matter.

It doesn't feel right to have biases for me. As though other lives matter less because I don't have a personal investment in them. Even if it's a moot point in this case.

[She cares about all these units.]

I understand your meaning. But to decide you should not fight for any if you cannot fight for all is something I have trouble relating to.

All life is worth protecting. From harm and pain. But you cannot always shield every soul from harm.

That does not make attempting to shield some any less worthy.

Though in games such as this, where the point is your misery, it is fine to do what you must not to engage as well.
