Byzantium

Rules:
-Each team is dealt a hand of four cards. Each card has a point value between 1 and 10 and an attack.

-Each team will pick one card to play, and their first, second, and third choice of which team for the card to be played on.

-There is a 12 point limit on what cards will actually be accepted. Cards with higher values will be accepted first. After 12, the only cards that will be accepted are one with a matching point value. (e.g. if the highest card submitted is an 8, it will be accepted. If the next highest card submitted is a 7, and three 7s are submitted, all 7s will be accepted, but nothing lower than a 7 will be accepted).

-Only cards which are accepted will have their attacks carried out.

-Teams that have their cards accepted are protected from the attacks of other teams. If a team's first choice is protected, the card goes to their second choice.

-Teams whose cards go through also will not have to participate in the possible second round, should the game require one.

[You find that once the robot has moved away you cannot see or hear the other teams.

Your robot hands you four large, heavy stock cardboard cards, each with a point value and attack on it. You also get a black card, and a sharpie to write your choices on.]

[FACE IN HANDS so he's muffled]

It's death or sleep.

We aren't going to be murderers!

[. . . oh god.

Oh god, laughing]

Not now, Tempest.

I-it's not a joke...

Then what would you call it Phoenix?

I feel horrified and alarmed, not humorous...!

Is that what we need for this situation? Will that get us out alive? Do your part, Phoenix.

I am––I'm drawing the line at killing off other teams!

. . . So. You draw the line at our deaths. How magnanimous.

[no no but it's hilarious]

I am a murderer. Leave this choice to me if you wish to keep your hands clean.

I've––been at least accused of murder, but that's not the point! We're not going to be murderers today, like this!

[waves a hand, flippantly]

Then we will die. Is that what you want instead?

No, but––that's going too far!

Is it? If we pick a lower card, do you think we will survive?

Pray they save themselves with a card of their choosing.

What do you mean?

We will do all that we can to stay alive.

(T-they're serious about this?!)

Gah! No we will not! Don't say that, there are limits!

You speak to one who beheaded a god, Phoenix.

[sighs heavily]

The stakes are too damn high not to go all out at this point. It will be a waste to not play the card.

Sparing lives is a waste?

[just looks incredibly upset and looks down instead of responding BECAUSE HE IS SENTENCING HIS BROTHER TO DEATH BASICALLY]

[YOU COULD JOIN ME ON TEAM MORALITY]

[TEAM ALWAYS COMES FIRST MORALDAD. A L W A Y S even if he is going to break if anything happens to canary]
