[Folds hands neatly over a knee, smiling to himself.]
Defend a unit? Mh! Time to test our alliances.

[UM. NOT CALM AT ALL SRY.]
That––that's it? All we can do is save someone else? What about defending ourselves?!

[sorry, Sheepcube is too busy prodding at his collar in a minor fit of panic to care about who they are defending]
[ With one hand idly swinging one of the Edison bulbs side to side, as the only visible manifestation of nervous energy. ]
Are our two illustrious social seniors here? I imagine they'd know best on who is likely to defend us.

That's it.
That's the game.
And so.... do you have any thoughts on units who may be inclined to protect us? This round or perhaps in a future round, should we make it through this one?

[MORE PULL FOR EICHI! Not that he particularly cares about defending others.]
Mhh, well it won't be Taisho. I can say that with confidence.
I was looking forward to hearing about the alliances you've made, Eichi-kun! And here you're telling me you've made us enemies instead? You've shaken me to the core!
[ For as ridiculously insincere as those words are, he looks obviously discomfited. Not what he wanted to hear. ]

[too much adrenaline turns into nervous pacing]
Who would protect us? Is there anyone?

Most of us are new, who's gonna protect us?!

I have a policy of slow-but-steady. Allies will come with time, but this game game too quickly for me!
Unfortunately there is someone here who saw me and got quite upset! Maybe I reminded him of someone from home, but he was rather hard to reason with...

Well, we must be certain to let other units know of his unreasonable behavior! After all, we are all new and we hardly had a chance to get entrenched and already we're facing threats!
[Not to be pessimistic or anything but
ERRYONE HERE GONNA DIE
So her opening strategy is going to be a freak out followed by planting herself in a corner with her tail curled around herself.]

I don't know... You would think that'd be a reason to protect us, but... the people here are shallow, inclined to alliances based on tenuous relationships, and more interested in saving one person they care for than a full unit of strangers.
It is human nature to be so selfish...
[Frowns, finally pulling away from his calm veneer.]
I... perhaps LiliS might think of me fondly?

I'm afraid I don't know of anyone who.....
Do you think your Angel might want to defend you?

Oh, absolutely! And it isn't as if he didn't do something that leaves a mark...
[He pulls out his phone and shows it to Eiji.]
He'd broken my phone, too. But that would only help if we could speak with any other unit. Instead, we are sequestered here alone...

. . .Adora would protect me. But I don't even know if she's here.
[ More or less his thoughts exactly, but he's dealing with it by being catty at Eichi.
Which isn't exactly getting anything done, so he jams his hands in his pockets and crosses over to Kohime, ducking the lights and flags as he goes.
And puts a hand on her head to ruffle her hair when he gets to her. ]

Kohime, didn't you mention you have a friend on Avante?
No. She's too popular for me to be that high in her priorities.
Very tragic. I am certain your sad tale will win over many hearts, sir!
[ Distracted almost, as he gives a pat answer and reaches out to look over the broken phone. ]

[Sucks in a breath, gives her arm a few nervous licks (because everyone else is about to let a cat explode those monsters) and then steels herself.]
My vote is for avante. Just in case Adora's there.

Yeah, but I have no idea if she's even there right now!
