When the game starts, you find something grabbing onto your ankle and dragging you under the ballpit until you find yourself sitting on a disco floor platform with your team. It is only being held up by eleven balloons.

You make decisions on a cool arcade machine where you can SELECT A TEAM'S BALLOON. If a character is blind or has no hands or smth, you can assume things can be read to you and you can automatically pick through your speech. Thanks, Alexa.

If you look over the platform, you can see a lot of sparkling rainbow spikes below.

...We only want to pop one balloon each round, right? To do the least amount of damage.

Re: Discussion

[youpoorthing]

...Yeah. I think so.

Re: Discussion

[rootoflove]

We can switch to two in the later rounds if it looks like we're in danger, but I don't think that's going to be necessary.

Re: Discussion

[youpoorthing]

...We can, yeah. [Does not sound enthusiastic for that option, however. But anyway, moving along-] I don't know which unit to choose. One that isn't unpopular?

[Thinking back to that other locked rooms game...]

Re: Discussion

[rootoflove]

Umm, well... maybe pep!pep!? I don't think anyone dislikes them.

[youpoorthing]

...That's the unit that can revive the dead, right?

[rootoflove]

Yes. So it wouldn't make sense for anyone to be their enemy.

[youpoorthing]

...Yeah. [...] But the fallen units might need their help after the game ends.

[phoni]

Do you think Left won't bring them back after?

[youpoorthing]

...We can't be sure. So it's taking a risk, I think?

[phoni]

That's true... Let's avoid pep!pep!, then.

[rootoflove]

We can't be certain. In that case... AlcheME! is popular as well, I think?

[youpoorthing]

...I don't have any objections to AlcheME!.

Re: Discussion

[phoni]

...I think one for this round would be okay. But if we're in danger next round or later, we should keep two as an option.

[ said slowly as she thinks it over. ]

Re: Discussion

[rootoflove]

[nods]

Yeah. Let's see what happens first.

Re: Discussion

[phoni]

[ sits on the floor since there's no point standing around. ]

Now... we need to decide whose balloon we're gonna pop.

Re: Discussion

[rootoflove]

Do you have any preference?

Re: Discussion

[phoni]

I think I'd like to avoid HSS if we can. Maybe BARiTONES, too, but... Mmm, I don't have any preferences on who we play on, otherwise.

[ shakes her head. ]

Re: Discussion

[rootoflove]

How do you feel about AlcheME!, then?

Re: Discussion

[phoni]

[ considers it for a moment. ]

I'm okay with playing on them.
