TEAL

[teamposts]

[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. . .]

If you're saying something about being a lawyer or an adult, I'm going to a leaf out of Mochi's book and punch you.

No! I'm saying if it were you in this situation, trying to protect someone you care about, you'd fight tooth and nail to insist, wouldn't you?

Not like this.

It's just really hard watching you--hell, not just you all, but everyone here, get so scared.

Re: [ALSO YELLING AT THE PORTRAITS]

[fishpanties]

Well, to be honest, it's pretty hard watching you be an idiot.

Re: [ALSO YELLING AT THE PORTRAITS]

[onlygoodlawyeris]

H-haha.

I'll say we're even then.

Re: [ALSO YELLING AT THE PORTRAITS]

[fishpanties]

I'll say we're even if you swear to never try to make a deal like this again.

Re: [ALSO YELLING AT THE PORTRAITS]

[onlygoodlawyeris]

F-fine. I promise--[OH LOOK THE NEXT ROUND IS UP 8>]

[SO IT IS BUT I CAN STILL GRAB YOUR EAR.]

Say the whole thing! 'I promise I will never try to sacrifice myself for my team!'

I'm waiting.

Re: [ALSO YELLING AT THE PORTRAITS]

. . .

I can't promise that. I'm ready to be hit again.

Re: [ALSO YELLING AT THE PORTRAITS]

[fishpanties]

[SMACKS UPSIDE THE HEAD.]

Then promise you won't make any deals.

Re: [ALSO YELLING AT THE PORTRAITS]

[onlygoodlawyeris]

[o-ow]

I promise I won't make any deals without your permission.
