ROUND 1

[idolpro]

[ The room is BRIGHT YELLOW, as all the rooms you will enter are. Black tiles make up the floor, changing to your unit's color when pressure is placed on them. There is a button in the very center of the room standing on a podium; it's slightly smaller than palm-sized.]

Re: Cardigan vs King

[ Someone is having Nam flashbacks.

THIS SHIT AGAIN.

He barely restrains himself from immediately drawing a weapon because that would seem rude. ]

[deicider]

[That's completely fair; Cardigan, however, stays relaxed.]

I've got to be honest with you, I'm not super interested in fighting a kid to the death.

[puzzlekeeper]

[ ... He manages to look affronted at least. ]

Really?

[deicider]

Really. No offense, but you wouldn't stand a chance, and that's no fun for me.

[puzzlekeeper]

If what's fun for you is that I submit and die, then I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you.

[deicider]

What a thing to think of me.

[Cardigan gestures to the button.]

Go ahead.

[puzzlekeeper]

[ His pride has never hated anything so much.

He doesn't move yet, though. ]

And your team? You're not concerned with securing victory for them?

[deicider]

No, I know some of them will fight tooth and nail to the top. No point duplicating effort.

[puzzlekeeper]

And I don't have similar confidence in my own team.

[ ugh


U G H ]

However-- you can expect a challenge from me once all of this is over. Leaving it like this is unacceptable to me.

[deicider]

That's what I like to hear. From now, take it as a gift.

[puzzlekeeper]

A gift for Heart Soldier, then.

[ Inclining his head just slightly. ]

Thank you.

[ Time to go SMACK THE BUTTON ]

[deicider]

[Cardigan flicks a mock salute before they're whisked away to have a very bad time.]

Make it count!
