[ The door shuts behind you, leaving you in a copy of this room. Upon one of the fancy tables is your card for the round, along with slots for each unit for you to go slide in your choices.

You can come and go as you will, but once you have left the room, you cannot speak of anything that transpires within: not your choices, not your discussion, not your alliances.

Do your best, idol-tachi. ]

Yeah, it wasn't a sincere compliment. Thought even you would get that much, but apparently not.

I'll make certain to adjust my expectations accordingly.

Then don't make stupid comments.

If you want to go for the murder option that's fine by me. But it's not me you'll have to convince.

You know, you can also just keep on being menacing in your corner and simply insist you don't care which unit we hit. If you're feeling a sudden urge to be useful, I suggest you actually commit to it.

Would you both just stop it!

[ Pointing at Skylark ]

SKY-! Go rest in the corner! Your blood is really distracting and fighting with a kid isn't a cool look you know. You should be working on your apology to SensitIV anyway! You were rude earlier, or do you think you would have been useful dead or blind? Reflect on your actions!

[Pointing to the next party then.]

And Valour! Sky is easily riled so don't go about instigating him! And stop treating murder like it's a light thing! Not only am I not in support of it, but think about it! If one of us were to personally murder someone on BARITONES, they would know right away it was us. They have already given us trouble outside of games in the past, the last thing we need to do is give any unit here ammunition for which to dislike us more or come after us with.

[ Even if maybe a death would be more swift than some of the other options.

. . . She is sorry, Paloma. ]

Can't it just be a friendly murder between two Units who will be upfront about hitting each other? I mean, I figure murdering them to their face is actually better than sending cards to them and pretending we never did it. At least we're not making any claims about them not being disposable.

No murder!

And if you think they are going to block us anyway, then it would make more sense to send them a low card.

I did consider it - it's going to be a waste if they do block us. But that leaves us with no target to send our highest cards to - unless you feel like making that choice? I'm all for it if you are.

We can probably afford to play conservative this round. We aren't in danger of being in debt right now.

What are some of our other options again? Let's play a low card on BARITONES. We already played a rough card on them anyway, and truth be told... While I don't like Kohime and especially not Eichi, it doesn't feel good seeing them torn up over and over again either.

Paloma-san seemed to suggest that if we might not target them...to try and let her know somehow. I don't... trust that the rest of the unit won't attack us if Eichi wants to, but that is still the first time that someone there... Made a suggestion that sounded like there was even the hope of them not coming at us.

[ He stays quiet for a moment as he thinks it through ]

No, it's too dangerous for this game. We can't be certain she'll convince them, it's too much of a risk. Hitting them with something low is our best choice.

We can consider reaching out to the rest of Baritones at a later time if you want to change our current standing with them. I've had pleasant enough conversation with all the ones I've met so far, and that includes Kohime. She even gave me a gift.

[ a pause, and he seems uncertain before he adds ]

And like you said. It did feel bad to see them in that state earlier. Though I'm more than willing to push that aside if that's what we have to do.

3 on Baritones. If it goes through, having at least one of them being unable to lie for some time could also play to our advantage.

I'd keep our five points card to 10IV, considering they are guests and if they lose a memory, that's no big deal to us. Who would you suggest for losing a limb?

Their tall member isn't so bad either. I played with him during social bingo and he seemed sincere. I agree that it's just too risky, though. They haven't yet...given us any reason to trust them.

[ On the contrary. Nng.. ]

But I think you are right. If it goes through... The inability to lie for a while won't hurt them and could... While underhanded, not be so bad.

[ Sigh... ]

. . . Who is left that we are still capable of targeting?

We have no viable options left, not of those we haven't hit already. Everyone's got someone somewhere. Avante, I suppose, but there's your contract with them.

And Shishiou-san is someone important to Shu-san anyway.

[ Nngg ]

Is YOU-kai an option... or... That's a unit Fox prefers we avoid, right?

It is, and I've met one of his friends from that Unit. It's someone he knows from home.

We could swap out the 7 card for the two points one, but I don't actually think we can afford it. Among the Units with the highest amount of points, I'm pretty sure we're going to be people's first choice.

We were hit five times on round 2.

With limb removal again? Unexpectedly brutal from you. But I'm fine with it.

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] sunflowering 2019-11-30 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't like the idea of doing it, but we really do have a lack of viable units to strike.

Unless you have a different idea?

If we do hit them again, I just hope it's not the same person.

[ If someone is struck there then God or that man would be preferable. ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] time5kip 2019-11-30 06:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't.

Grace wanted to hit units in the 30s points range, but she can probably be satisfied with one that's sitting at 28, and this is a solid enough plan.
