3 WAY PRISONER'S DILEMMA: Taisho Roman Revolution

[idolpro]

[ The room you wake up in is barren. The floor, walls, and ceiling are all metal, and the only furnishings are a large television-sized touchscreen monitor and a massive pane of glass cutting through the room, separating Kuzuebiko from the rest of the unit. You can beat against the glass as much as you like, but it won't break. Both the touchscreen monitor and the elevator doors are on the same side of the room as everyone but the hostage.

Once Mukuro finishes his intro spiel, the monitor display switches to a catalogue of pictures of flowers, each with their name, associated meaning, and a checkbox underneath them: ]

Amaryllis (Red&White) - Talkative
Baby's Breath - Purity of Heart
Calla Lily (White) - Maidenly Desire
Camellia (Red) - Perish with grace
Camellia (White) - Waiting
Cherry Blossom - Transience of all things
Foxglove - Insincerity
Hydrangea (Blue) - Heartlessness
Iris - Faithfulness
Lantana - Change of Heart
Marigold - Despair
Morning Glory - Willful promise
Mountain Laurel (Red) - Ambition
Oleander - Caution
Poppy (Red) - Fun-loving
Poppy (White) - Rejoice
Poppy (Yellow) - Success
Tulip (Red) - Fame/Charity/Trust
Yarrow (White) - Conflict

There's going to be consequences either way. You can deal with that when it happens.

[ Crossing his arms ]

That is all that can be done.

[rollplayinghouse]

Right.

[syncintohell]

[ After she's put in their responses, while they're waiting: ]

. . . if I am altered, I have a selfish request to make of you.

[rollplayinghouse]

...What is it?

[syncintohell]

If one of us is to be injured, put me in harm's way. I do not know if I will accept it after I am altered, but if one of us is to be broken it is better the one that is already cracked. Do not let harm befall the others, if it can be helped. I volunteer myself to this while I am still of sound mind.

[rollplayinghouse]

...What? No. I wouldn't let you take all the damage even if you didn't change, and I'm definitely not going to if you change your mind later.

[syncintohell]

Maki.

[ Very stiff, mouth working slowly like he's chewing through taffy rather than words ]

I remember being broken before. . . I would rather die than be him again. If that happens, this is what I would prefer.

[rollplayinghouse]

You don't know what's going to happen.

[syncintohell]

If the past is any indication—! It is true I do not know for certain, but I do not want to be that detestable wretch!

[rollplayinghouse]

...If you turn into someone terrible, we can deal with that then. Separately from all of this.
