[ You're herded into what would be the hallway but instead it's another room - a smaller version of the bedroom. Except on the bed is six glass boxes, each with a pretty impressive padlock keeping them shut.

What may be more interesting however is that in each glass box is a bodypart of your 'damsel'. One box for the head, one for the left hand, one for the right hand, one for the left foot, one for the right foot and one long box for the torso and limbs of course.

On the windowsill (if you take time to look out the window you'll see that the streets are filled with people, angry, milling about. . . though not doing anything?) there are six shotglasses, three of which have keys in them. ]

I did say it was a puzzle, yes? Sometimes I can't remember what I've told you. Anyway, they keys won't do you any good until we're done with the rounds, of course. There will be three rounds to 'steal' and then a round for 'desperation' that sounds like fun. How much will you be willing to give . . .?

[ ... touches her eyelid

nnnnope ]

[. . . wow I sort of hate that I am the only oneeee who reacts calmly to this kind of stuff]

[places a hand on her shoulder]

No one on Iris is gonna lose an eye.

[but other teams 8( taking a deeeeeep breath to try to calm herself down again.]

There are other teams that might, though.

[. . .]

They might. Depends on if they defend or not.

[we might be the cause of it, too. . .]

. . . And what we decide.

[well it's not like I haven't already completely destroyed everything I stand for, so. . .]

We need three more keys.

[...]

So someone is going to be missing a tooth, missing an eye, and getting burned because... of us.

It's-- [damn it. . .]

There's no excuse for it. There's no good reason to make a choice like that. Hell, if it was me in that box I'd ask you guys to destroy a key and defend yourselves. I'm not afraid of being hurt, and I don't want you guys to have to live with those kind of decisions just to save me.

. . . but Swift can't give us his input, and I know he wants to survive. So. . . we've gotta save him.

I know there's no good reason. I don't want to make this choice, either.

[,_,]

You're important to me, so I would save you if you were there... and I want to save Swift. E-Even if it involves making these kinds of decisions. I don't want to make them, but I'm going to do it because I want to keep my teammates safe.

[and then she rubs her eyes a little because SHE DOESN'T WANT TO MAKE THIS DECISION and she's not going to be able to forgive herself for it later easily but. Y...es...]

[it's okay I am making all the decisions for you, you don't have to make a single one :')]

Fawn and Lilac. The burn for Lilac, and the other two for Fawn.
