[ 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 Wire 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

They could be tryin' to trick us, too. But...

Do you really want to risk fucking someone else up?

They could be trying to trick us. I will not say that I trust all of the the other groups to care about anyone but their own.

However... I feel like the majority of the units here are honest. I don't know that I want to risk lying to and betraying anyone sincere. If we send a sincere message indicating that we will not attack, however, then we have made you more vulnerable.

...

You are the one whose mind and body are being held hostage if we make a mistake. What are your feelings?

...I don't need protecting at the cost of someone else.

The other units, they're-- fuck, almost all of them are still kids. That's not a gamble I'm willing t'take.

I was never gonna last that long here. As long as I know you're all fine, that's all I care about.

[ hey

what the fuck

Bangs on the glass, with her unprotected fist, hard enough that it hurts her even if it does nothing to the wall between them. ]

Do not talk like that.

You are not some dying old man. Why are you giving up without a fight?

We did good so far, getting everyone to play nice. All we can do is hope that attitude lasts when one of their own's on the line. But even in that best case scenario, I'm--

[Going to change. Going to suffer. He bites down on the rest of that sentence.]

...I don't want any've you to blame yourselves.

We do not know what change will be made.If it is a lesser sentence, then perhaps it will simply be something benign but somehow amusing to those monsters.

[ unlikely. but one can hope. she presses her hand up against the glass. ]

No doubt this place will change us all, in ways big and small.

[ that's already begun. ]

As long as you make it through, that's enough for me.

[He presses his hands against the glass too.]

It really has changed us, huh. [Nathan manages to muster up a small, weak smile]

You stepped up and took charge... I know from seein' in your heart, this place isn't going to break you. Whatever happens, I'm proud of you, Princess.

Why would they try and trick us? It's better for everyone if no one plays a betrayal.

That last game, we played it so no one got hurt. We can do it again, if we all work together.

...It all depends on who else is on the hook.

Even if both units trust each other, there's still some consequence. We've got no idea what that might mean.

...yeah. Yeah, I know that.
