War Rooms: WILD CITY

[idolpro]

[This room might be a nice, slightly whimsical surrounds to talk things over in, if it weren't for the collars and countdowns on your phones. ]

Hard part is, I can't think of many people here who deserve death...

Speaking of.... I want to be totally honest, okay? There's a fifty-fifty chance that these collars are duds or the real deal.

[iamverybadass]

Mm... Certainly not any whole unit.

[ He frowns, reaching up to fidget with the collar again. ]

...Is there any way we can tell?

[shutthefoxup]

Nope. This is going to sound awful, but...

Ah, I can...if you want...knock you out before time is up? Just in case.

[iamverybadass]

What? Why—

[ ...oh. ]




What about you?

[shutthefoxup]

I shoud probably stay awake. That way I can carry everyone back to the dorm afterwards.

[iamverybadass]

But what if the collars are real? You cannot— You should not be alone!

[shutthefoxup]

[Shoulder bumps him]

Why should more than one person have to be awake and go through that?

[iamverybadass]

[ meanwhile, Talon squares his shoulders. Still looks like a scared kid, just stubborn about it all ]

I will not let you.

[shutthefoxup]

...

I'll talk it out with Aries then, okay?

[iamverybadass]

You may, but I will still not allow you to remain alone.

[shutthefoxup]

I don't want you to be awake incase some team doesn't pick us. I'll have Aries stay up with me then.

[iamverybadass]

You won't just knock him out after me, will you?

[shutthefoxup]

I won't, promise.

[iamverybadass]

[ stares suspiciously at him ]

[shutthefoxup]

[MAKES A WEIRD FACE]

[iamverybadass]

What is that?

[shutthefoxup]

No reaction, huh? I was hoping you'd laugh.

[iamverybadass]

I have not laughed since I arrived here.

[shutthefoxup]

We'll work on that.

[iamverybadass]

...Is it a problem that needs to be worked on?

[shutthefoxup]

Not necessarily, as long as you're happy...well...as happy as anyone can be here. I bet Talon has a good laugh though.

[iamverybadass]

Maybe. I have felt I was happy...enough. But people are always encouraging me to be happier.

I don't understand what they want. Especially now.

[shutthefoxup]

The game?

[iamverybadass]

The people. I do not want to think about the game any longer.

[shutthefoxup]

[Shakes his head]

We'll talk about it after the game. Time is almost up.
