CELESTE

[You find yourself standing on a wooden platform suspended from the ceiling of a stone dungeon lit by many torches. The platform is held up by 11 woolen threads in your color, and it sways precariously with every movement you make. It doesn’t seem very sturdy at all. . . though in addition to those 11 strings, there are 11 more attached to the side of the platform, one in each other team color. They’re within easy reach.

If you peer over the edge of your platform, you’ll be able to see the floor of the dungeon, though it might not necessarily give you comfort. Dozens of iron, pointy spikes are embedded into the ground, the sharp ends facing up. If you fall, it won’t be a pleasant trip down.

You can also see the other teams suspended on similar platforms around you. They’re far enough away that they probably can’t hear you talking on your own platform, but if you yell, you might be able to communicate. . .]

[um.]

Don't you fucks get tired of this!?

I really hope they cut us a deal like Dragon did after this.

[because oh boy.]

Do you think they might?

Why not? Maybe we can kill them all after we're done with this.

[ I don't even like that idea and yet ]

I'd rather win... if we can't have both.

[I AM NOT THINKING ABOUT ANYTHING IF I SMILE AND FANTASIZE ABOUT KILLING EVERYONE AFTER I AM OKAY WITH THIS OKAY.]

Then we pick three teams and try to take out whoever's most likely to kill us. We're probably not going to make it, but maybe we can take them with us and then after we get to hunt them down and stab them.

It's inconvenient, how little these set-ups lend themselves to fear... I suppose if we don't act outside the games, we'll never make a point.

[ well

fuck ]

Which teams?

[...

h...... huff]

Well... What now.

It's not "what now", it's what Lark asked: Which teams. We need to pick three if we want to stand half a fucking chance here.

[huffff, obviously doesn't like the idea of it, but he knows their reputation.]

And, even then, we probably still won't have a chance, but, we have to do what we can, to actually have a chance.

[a bite into his lip, contemplative --

...]

It's -- what we have to do.

... Not Teal, please.

Well, Canary probably wants our blood, and you pissed off the new team and Shell.

Shell won't be hitting us, they're stupid but not that fucking stupid. And it doesn't fucking matter who targets us, what matters is who we target, since we can't do shit about the other teams' choices right now. So a vote for not teal!

Vote for Canary.

[WHAT DID YOU DO TO PISS THEM OFF...]

Shark is right, since, we can't really control, what other people do, and all we can do is yell at them, right now.

I would also like to, er, vote for not Sage.
