Castle Game: Taisho Roman Revolution

[idolpro]

[Suddenly, you hear the wailing of a horn. Outside, tension is turning to panic. You can't see anything, but you can hear people gathering up their things, sobbing in fear or speaking in harsh whispers. A lone voice calls from the distance:

The enemy approaches!

Upon the map, an unfamiliar geography appears -- several small nations, clustered together. Outside of them, an endless sea of enemy forces, identified only by a symbol of a cracked skull. Each of the small nations is marked with a flag in one unit's colour, and a tiny model of a castle.

You are at war. How will you protect your people and yourself?


(Rules & questions are here. Cleo is your gamerunner!)

I am fine with that.

[ . . . But she looks like she wants to say something. Hngg.. ]

[ After a moment of studying her face, he says: ]

. . . Kaguya, speak your mind. I am not skilled at reading others, I cannot divine what you want through expression alone.

[sunflowering]

. . . Would it be possible to still give some points to Pep?

In this last round, if people are feeling safe, they may just donate some to pep so that they will perhaps... make it into a higher tier.

I'm upset for the others for being so low... but if Pep could be spared from whatever the worst punishment there is, then they may be spared from something worse than death.

[ididntsaybanana]

Yeah, sure. I'm fine with that.

[sunflowering]

Thank you, Baron.

[ididntsaybanana]

[ He is going to give you a hug right now ]

[sunflowering]

[ Hugging him in turn. This game is too cruel. ]

[ididntsaybanana]

[ He understands. He wishes they didn't have to play these games at all ]

[syncintohell]

We are in a safe enough position.

[ Looking over the map, and how Pep!pep!'s fortress is so much worse off than all the other units ]

[sunflowering]

If everyone thinks it is safe...

I would just like to do what we can for them, and pray that other units will spare them a point each.

[bloodyrose]

Kaguya. . .

[He just nods. This is all right.]

[sunflowering]

Thank you. I just want to do something for them, if possible. There's no reason for them to sacrifice themselves this much.

[bloodyrose]

There isn't.

[Though he'd have to confess that this is in part due to Nova. There's no reason for him to actually say it, all things considered.]

We still need to be mindful, regardless. We don't know what may still happen.

[sunflowering]

I know. I realize that in giving our last three points away... we do risk someone stealing from us.

[bloodyrose]

The whole of it has been a risk.

[sunflowering]

[ But if Taisho ends up hurt because she requested that extra point be spent... ]

[bloodyrose]

[They can still hope for the best, but, he knows. There isn't much else to really say. He'll move to take her into his arms for the moment.]
