CELESTE

[teamposts]

[The tiny, medieval school room you wind up in is small, and just like the outside of the house, completely run down. Dust coats the desks, the windowsills, and the floors, and the windows are so tarnished that hardly any sunlight streams through. There doesn't seem to be a door. . .

A doll-sized gallows with a cloth doll in your team color sits in front of the room. There is a series of horizontal lines etched into the base.]

I'll work on it.

Re: Discussion

Hold up. Okay, that's two vowels. We know there's no U or A, I goes after E, and Y is rare.

Re: Discussion

[unquestion]

Something else, now, in that case. Might an H advance us?

Re: Discussion

[remarch]

Bluuuu E u O uuh...

Focus on the end bit, let's assume it's two of those things words break down into for sounds. Try 'r' for 'Or' or 'M' for 'Om'.

Re: Discussion

[unquestion]

This... is really difficult.

Re: Discussion

[remarch]

That wasn't so hard, was it?

[YES IT WAS. Resisting the urge to do a victory dance.]

Re: Discussion

[unquestion]

Really? That's... even more splendid of you! I don't think I'd have ever guessed.

For the next... where should we start?

Re: Discussion

[unquestion]

[ well I am pretty impressed ]

Re: Discussion

[remarch]

[MUST NOT VICTORY DANCE.]

Okay, run through the vowels again until we get a hit. It worked for the first 'unconventional', didn't it?

Re: Discussion

[unquestion]

Right!

Re: Discussion

[remarch]

There's one.

Re: Discussion

[unquestion]

Should I stop now?

Re: Discussion

[remarch]

We've got two. No ending this time, so let's focus on the start. What's a common letter words start with?

Re: Discussion

[unquestion]

S...?

Re: Discussion

[remarch]

[Plays an Eye, followed by trash can, and S and T.]

Round three's probably the average out of those left.

Re: Discussion

[unquestion]

We still have the "eraser."

[man I can't help but be impressed even though being impressed at you is like the last thing I want to do]

Re: Discussion

[remarch]

[MANLY AND UNRUFFLED BY HIS VICTORY maybe bouncing on his heels a bit haha i got it SUCK IT YOU FUCK--

at least until the second 'unconventional' comes up.]

They're fucking with us, aren't they?

Re: Discussion

[pchaaair]

... Probably? I, uh, wouldn't actually be surprised.

Re: Discussion

[remarch]

Pick a team and let's use eye to check before we try to cripple them.
