day three - afternoon

[guestcontrol]

dreamland day three 34 players remaining. [As the day wears on into the afternoon, the dead aren't getting any deader. It's late in the afternoon, and the air is beginning to cool, when the chimes play again over the park loudspeaker. "All of us here at Dreamland wish you luck, guests! Let's meet up in the Hall of Mirrors!" Wherever you are, it's time to make your way over to the House of Horrors, where you'll have to brave the funhouse to find the room on the top floor. Don't delay, or your guest identification bracelet will begin beeping. The House of Mirrors is a large room, more than capable of fitting a crowd. Tall mirrors line every wall, and the door you entered through seems to vanish into a mirror as well. The mirrors give the impression that many, many more are among your number, standing in the background. In the back is a jar filled with blank raffle tickets. You'll have to take a ticket, write down a name, and place it back in the jar. Hopefully you already know who you're voting for, but if not, you only have time for a brief discussion before you're out of time. rulebook character statuses private conversations graveyard Voting will close at 10 PM EST on September 30.

[ when the deadline grows closer, Patchy does not stand up on a table as per tradition, but rather raises her voice. ]

Our deadline is creeping upon us. Edea has made a fine stand, but what is the consensus here?

[perfectstrike]

We do not have much in the way of choice.

[Peko looks thoroughly exhausted; she hasn't been participating in most of the discussions, though she has been listening. She doesn't move from her spot against the wall, and though her eyes are closed, it's pretty obvious there are some dark bags under them. It really doesn't look like she's slept at all since before Kuzuryuu's murder, really. Her voice is low and steady, and she doesn't open her eyes as she speaks.]

By executing Lee... there is a chance we remove a VIP from the playing field, and confirm that Calamity's Dark Blade is indeed the detective. By executing Legion... nothing is gained. Levi's foolhardy actions proved that the first note is useless.

Or we take the coward's route, and do nothing. And the VIPs are free to kill again, without fear of consequence.

[poyoyon]

Ibuki's gonna side with Peko-chan!

[ Although a lot of the logic of all these arguments has pretty much gone over her head...she gets the gist of what's going on after Clash's summary. Ish. ]

And Calamity's Dark Blade-chan!

[sunshade]

[ ............her response was going to be as solemn as the others but peko what ]

'Calamity's Dark Blade'....?

[perfectstrike]

Calamity's Dark Blade, the Avenging Miss-L.

[Peko.... this is so embarrassing...]

[edealistical]

Isn't 'Missile' a little more intimidating than 'Miss L'?

[poyoyon]

It's Gundam-chan's name for the puppy!

[ Help...ing... ]

[mediumburgers]

That's kind of a mouthful, isn't it?

[sparklyrichbastard]

But he's a boy dog...

[paws_and_rewind]

[ People are talking about him again! HI! ]

[royalizing]

[ Calamity's Dark Blade... ]

We can't let them do that. If we don't vote again today, then they will be able to convert yet another to their side.

[ She probably doesn't need to say how much they can't afford that... ]

[glasshole]

I have to agree. She makes a decent argument, but I think it's in our best interest to execute her. There's at least a better chance she's VIP in my mind than Legion.

[shoutoku_administrator]

As Pekoyama says. We necessarily must vote, and nobody is more likely to be a VIP than Miss Lee.

[murimurimuri]

We... we have to choose Edea. That's pretty obvious, right?

[belgian]

...If we vote for Edea, we'll have confirmation for Missile one way or the other. I don't really want to use someone's life for something like that, but if we vote for no one, then the VIPs can convert again, and we at least have some sort of evidence for Edea.

[cakelover]

...I agree.

[ Though he doesn't like it... ]

[crueltobekind]

Honey-senpai . . .

[It isn't like he can argue with the logic though]

[godwhisperer]

Edea Lee. But then, my position is obvious.

[edealistical]

...I will vote for Legion, as I must.

[And she will take out a small piece of paper and return it to the robot.]

I am unworthy of this in every way. I cannot ask you to forgive me for what I have said tonight... whether I am right or wrong.

[One last thing - ]

Aya, in the case that I am executed, I ask that you publish what I sent you yesterday, though it may be outdated in several ways.

[photoshot]

I'll do that.

... Good luck with everything, Miss Edea. [ she'd said it before and meant it. she still means it, even if 'everything' entails execution. ]

[mediumburgers]

I don't want to execute anyone-- not after what happened with Levi, even if he was a huge lying jerk. I don't want us to be wrong again.

But...

[ Maya really, really wants to believe that they can get out of here without anymore deaths, but she isn't entirely naive. A kid died today, and a little girl lost her brother. She knows the VIPs can't really be just misled at this point, even if she still holds out that tiny sliver of hope. But. ]

We have to vote someone, and I really believe Missile is the detective, so... I guess Edea.

[eventhandler]

...Edea's theory was sound, in several ways. However...not sound enough, I'm afraid. I will have to...vote for her.

If there is a chance she might be VIP...then that will be the best case for all of us. We cannot just sit and...well, do nothing as these murders continue to happen.

[loveisanopendoor]

It's terrible...we really don't have much to go on, other than Edea's word. And I definitely trust her, but...a child died today, because of these VIPs...and if we don't make a vote for anyone, we're letting them go off again. If only we had more time, or more evidence...

...But to send another innocent to their death...

[eventhandler]

Yes. We cannot stand and wait for someone to make the decision for us. No matter how...tough it is, it must be done, it really must be done, for the good of us all...

We can only hope we do not repeat the incident with Levi.

[perfectstrike]

Who are you to say that the life of Dipper Pines is any more valuable than anyone else who has been killed here?

[Peko kind of... snaps that at Anna, even though it obviously hadn't been addressed to her.]
