BARiTONES

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.

What, just for––spite?

Re: Discussion

It's nothing so personal.

Re: Discussion

[purrrnicious]

Ugh.

So––five teams avoided us. If it's the same ones we're avoiding, that's. . . Avante, Future is Now, Sensitiv, probably. Maybe Lilis. I don't know who the other might be. The first three might keep avoiding us, the other two. . .

Re: Discussion

[innerdaemons]

Sensitiv may still target us -- I'm not certain they'd defend us to the very last round.

Is there someone in particular on Future is Now you're attached to?

Re: Discussion

[purrrnicious]

. . .Fine. So three might kill us. So why're we gonna take out teams that have people who might help us in the future when we're just gonna lose? That sounds stupid.

Re: Discussion

[innerdaemons]

It's hardly just "taking it out" if it's our slim chance of survival.

Re: Discussion

[purrrnicious]

We're not going to survive. What don't you get about that?

Re: Discussion

[innerdaemons]

We have a chance of being over the threshold if we play against three units. And they might have had enough of their balloons popped they'll be in the lower half rather than us.

Re: Discussion

[purrrnicious]

But three doesn't get us anything in the last round. It'd be the same if we played for two.

Re: Discussion

[innerdaemons]

-- Ah, you're correct. Would you settle on two, then?

Re: Discussion

[purrrnicious]

[Snapping her tail a couple more times before wrapping it around herself again.]

. . .

Fine. Whatever.

Re: Discussion

[innerdaemons]

[ an over-the-top bow; ]

You have my gratitude for conceding. Alcheme, and which other unit, then? I'm not overly attached to any of the remaining ones, but I assume Avante is out of the question ... ?

Re: Discussion

[purrrnicious]

Go with Lilis.

Re: Discussion

[innerdaemons]

Done, and done!
