week 3 ( monday );

[Meeting in the longhouse is a go! Lief clears his throat, as a part of him wonders how he keeps ending up in this situation, but:]

Thank you all for gathering here. These past few weeks have been difficult, but I pray that none of us fall into despair. Now, more than ever, we need to keep our spirits up and put an end to this twisted game.

Vriska and Kirigiri have asked that we take advantage of our time now to discuss our next course of action, without an immediate deadline constraining us, driving us to ill temper. As we have struggled with how we should approach the trial, perhaps we should focus on the roles—the ones with the purpose to kill.

In particular, what sort of people would the Chiefs place in such a role? Not necessarily who would kill, normally, but who would be the Chiefs' "ideal" candidates. That is what we wish to figure out.

... Of course, we may not come to a complete agreement. But perhaps we will walk away from this with a better idea of how to go on from here, if nothing else.

[ooc: basically, a mingle post to discuss stuff! top-level and hijack away, etc.]

[ speaking of the hallucinations that Hiro brought up. ]

Neku brought this up during the trial last week - Joshua seemed to be immune to the hallucinations that plagued us during the course of Thursday and Friday, until his death was announced.

[ a frown. ]

If something happens on Thursday, would it be reasonable to assume that whoever the killing role has picked out would be immune to what's happening? Of course, I understand that that's largely contingent on whether something does happen on Thursday, but at the very least it gives us all a starting point to work with.

I agree. If something happens on every Thursday, the killing roles could be immune to it. [... And as much as he hates this:] They wouldn't be able to get their jobs done if they worked under the same rules the rest of us do.

[It's possible Joshua wasn't the only one spared from hallucinating.]

There's other roles, too, stupid. They could have had some kinda magic that kept certain people from hallucinating.

They said they'd tell us if someone who died had a role--but did anyone even ask?

I did.

[tapping her quill against her cheek]

Hal said he didn't. Pal said "he was going with Hal on this one," which is hardly a comforting response.

Bear in mind that every answer we get from them should be taken with a hefty mountain of salt.

What the hell does that mean?! It pisses me off. Just tell us a real answer!

If he didn't have a role, then another role must have affected why he wasn't seein' anything. And that doesn't help us at all. We're all just talking in circles.

It's a riddle, dummy. No matter how angry you get, they're not going to be direct with us.

[REASONS WHY SHE HARDLY EVER ASKS THEM QUESTIONS: that]

And I don't know about anyone else, but these circles sure are starting to make me dizzy!

Tch! I hate riddles! Just say what you mean!

The only way we're going to get any answers is for someone to kill and ask for a reward then tell us what they got. But no one is gonna volunteer for that, or let us do it.

Has anyone tried to talk to those two in private?

Should we ask everyone if they saw stuff then or what did they even see?

[ He's crossing his arms as he says that cause someone in the room was going on about him being insensitive for asking before. ]

Or maybe try to see who isn't reacting to whatever crazy that happens next?
