future is now

You're in a room...? Probably. There are shadows around the edge of the room which make it hard to judge the size. There's nothing here, but you somehow know your decisions will be heard.

Glowing in the air in the worst color are two numbers: your total and the overall total. They both begin at zero.

One among you will lose someone. Feel free to discuss, but don't take too long...

On second thought, maybe it's okay if my world belongs to Hell if it's full of dipshits like this.

You sound like someone who has already accepted a loss... I do not approve.

On the contrary.

If this is who gets graduated on a whim, then that's just more incentive for me to rise to the top.

So I can demote him to fucking janitor.

You now have my approval.

Let's focus on the game. We need to form a decision.

I'll take the first one. My world. My problem. And you know how much I don't give a shit about memories.

[nods]

Roger. To keep it fair, Silence will take the next turn. You may not care about memories, but we cannot have you leaving with no memory of everyone who has changed your life.

If that's how you want to play it.

You want to roll the die then?

[Because Intensity has E-rank luck and no heart of the cards]

Very well.

[rolls... a 2!]

Seven. Hm.

Well at least we don't have to worry about going over.

As long as we do not continue getting low numbers, thus taking more turns.

And lessening our chances of winning.

[Though Intensity doesn't seem too fussed about walking out of here with 0 memories. Even if he appreciates Silence taking half the burden]

...

I hate luck decks.

[takes her a moment to process that]

...is this about the card game you play?

Yes.

He killed Nine-Nine with it back home.

[Said so nonchalantly. As if this sort of stuff just happens all the time.

Because it does]

[—!]

I must ask how.

Shadow Games.

They run much like these games where the loser suffers a penalty. In one of Nine-Nine's memories, I saw him face off against this wannabe tryhard and lose.

...

Because it's Nine-Nine. I'm sure you understand.
