WILD CITY

You and your team find yourself chilling inside of an elevator!

There aren't chairs or anything to sit on, sorry about that. I mean, it's an elevator okay, not a fancy restaurant, geez.

However, enjoy the elevator music. Sometimes it gets interrupted by another song (OOC: but really, that's for my own satisfaction so you can choose to ignore it..

We're barely there. How hard d'we need to go to win at a minimum?

I think we're going to have to keep the same pace, if not just hit everyone. We only barely managed to keep out of the bottom as it is, and I imagine the others are going to make a last ditch push to get out too.

[ Pauses ]

You know what's funny? There's way less murder now, but I'm pretty sure everyone up there is about to get punished way worse than all of the people who committed murder in round 1.

Yeah. Well they didn't even put my worst sin up, just one as sounded a bit nasty. Nothing about this's meant to be fair.

Far from it. I think this was deliberate. Get everyone into such a frenzy trying to stay alive that they don't even consider what's "fair" anymore once they load up the majority of the so-called "petty" sins--if there ever really was a concern about "justice" in the first place.

Probably at least another 7/8, but I think we should add a small safety net.

Allright. About half of 'em then?

Looks like nineteen, so I feel like 11 as a minimum, but we should probably do a little math and see how the lower teams played, because if everybody goes hard, then we're still screwed.

My favorite kinda math.

[He's really angry but like, keeping it in check. His voice is bitter though.]

[ mood. ]

[ snorts. ] ...well, no matter what happens we at least tried. I told Silver I plan on spoiling you guys when we get back. It's the least we deserve after this.

Probably at least double digits just to stay at the bottom of the pack. Looks like the heavy hitters for Zrael, Taisho and Bit are all in attendance.

I'm not sure what we need to do exact numbers wise because, well, let's chalk it up to blood loss. We probably can't afford to ease up though.

Agreed. When did you lose blood, though? Did something happen?

My consequence for having my listed thing chosen a certain amount, I think. I'll be all right.

Maybe you should sit down, though. If you fall, you might get hurt.

Not if we want to stay in the green. There's literally one floor separating us from the red.

I'm the one about distrust.

[ Pause ]

I don't think we're in the clear, and we're still going to have to play hard if we don't want to slip down based on the results from this last round, but... I'm willing to hear everyone else's thoughts.

I think going *slightly* harder is going to ensure our safety. Just doing the minimum will get us dunked on. A lot of units are hovering the line...

[ also wafting a brow at her sin. ]

Is that about us?

If they're hovering the line but don't want to be under, they're going to fight hard to get over it, right?

[ She thrusts her chin out. It's embarrassing af but she might as well commit. Or overcompensate, as the case may very well be. ]

It says unitmates, doesn't it? So, yes.

It had to be vague to avoid people singling you out. So you're telling me its about all of our unitmares or, like I said, us. What's there to hide?

I'm not hiding anything!

[ She thought by "us" you meant "your unitmates us" not.... "us us, him and her. Now that she's thinking about it more, though, she's realizing how stupid that was and she can feel her cheeks starting to heat up. ]

I would be lying if I said that was all of it, but-- it's a not-insignificant portion of it, yes.

Nn, I think you're right. People are probably going to pull out all stops in a last ditch effort if this is the last round. We definitely have to do double digits.

I'm glad we're on the same page. It's not pleasant, but at least we're not fighting over a decision.

Mm, I can vouch, inter team fighting is the actual worst.

[ Uh oh. ]

I take it that's been an issue in the past...?
