week 3 ( monday );

[reidentify]

[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.]

[He'd considered Nino, too, but she herself seems like an unlikely option.] If she's a killer, then ripping out her eye here without real healing or medical supplies would make her a liability. She could have died. It's counterproductive.

[god this tl;dr..... even Zuko isn't this tl;dr]

But from the looks of it, you aren't making such efforts here. If anything, the way you've been acting is making you look suspicious. Is that intentional?

[zwischenzugs]

You're assuming that they don't have medical supplies. All we really know is that they haven't given us much.

[Mello likes the sound of his own voice ok, just let him live!! And to Zuko's question, he shrugs.]

I'm not going out of my way to appear suspicious, though some people are apparently determined to see me as such.

[Nope, still not over the fact that two of y'all put his name down at the trial.]

[cuedoves]

[Zuko voted for Lelouch ok] Does she look treated to you?

You're managing it. [BUT SHRUGS.... if Mello wants to Mello Zuko's not going to stop him]

[zwischenzugs]

[also shrugs]

I don't expect the rest of you to understand me, and honestly, despite what the gamerunners said about the point of this game being to trust each other, I think it's absolute folly to trust anyone here.

[cuedoves]

We agree on that much. [EXCEPT FOR KATARA, WHO IS COOL!!!] There's no way to prove anyone is innocent, unless you already knew them from home. And even then.

[except for Katara...]

[zwischenzugs]

How well can you really know someone? [smirking] History and literature are both full of betrayals.

[cuedoves]

You can't.

[speaking as a betrayer himself, though he looks a little remorseful at the topic]
