ROUND 2 - EMERALD

[ The room is different this time -- larger. In the middle is a table with enough chairs for everyone. A platter of cheese and fruit sits there as well. You can hear Three's voice, but not see her. ]

Rank the remaining nine teams in terms of value. You may place your own team as high or low as you wish.

[ Also on the table is a colored tile for every team but Ruby and a small rectangular container with slots numbered one through nine. ]

... I'm fucking tired of this game.

I know. My everything hurts. I want to go to sleep.

But we've gotta do it. You and Touchy need Coral, I need Sapphire. Those two teams are also where Faith and Fetch are, if I remember rightly, so I'm not going to press too hard for anything else. But I'm fond of Turquoise too.

Let's put Coral and Sapphire first and second, just because of numbers, unless anyone objects.

Right. Any other teams you feel strongly about?

No. From talking to Touchy... here's a tentative ranking.

1) Coral
2) Sapphire
3 or 4) Citrine or Turquoise
5 or 6) Amethyst or Peridot
7 or 8) Tiger's Eye or Kunzite
9) Us.

... I can't put Tiger's Eye that low. Fuck, I forgot. Valiant and Mitchell are there. Can we switch some stuff around?

Maybe we could switch it with Peridot? I only put them that high because they fared the worst last round.

That'd be alright. Or ... who needs Citrine that high? Is that Touchy?

Yeah, he knows two people, one from home. Hm...

1) Coral
2) Sapphire
3) Turquoise
4) Citrine
5) Tiger's Eye
6) Amethyst
7) Peridot
8) Kunzite
9) Emerald

. . . I've no complaints with that.

[fine with raven]

[staring at the list, suddenly horrified]

No - no, no - rank Amethyst below Peridot. Just - just do it.

Misato will understand.

... if you're sure. I'll switch them, and turn in our answer.

We can lower them if that's necessary.

Four to six proabbly won't make much difference. It's all middle ground right there.

All right. Just keeping in mind that Citrine is -- [shrugs] Silver and Blaze will both probably shrug it off.

I ... [a strangled noise] Fine. That sounds fine to me. Shinji and Misato are on Turquoise and Amethyst. They're ... I know them from home. I just wanted to say that.

I don't want to do this. Have I said that enough times already?

None of us do, but we're going to have to make some choice! Even if it's somewhat arbitrary. I'm trying to keep the people you know in mind, all right?

I'm ... I'm not complaining! I just ... dammit. I don't know. I wasn't sure everyone knew. I can live with the ... the consequences, whatever happens.

[fuck everythiiiing]

[s-siiighs HOW DOES I FEELINGS]

I'm... not angry at you, Ginger. I'm angry at the game.

... are we sure we can't just try the circle again? Where would ... where would that rank everyone, if we did that, but started it with Coral at the top?

It's gotta be done.

I know! Just - let me vent, okay?

No. I am bleeding from my everywhere, I have a headache, and I'm being forced to choose between my friends. Pipe down.

... sorry.
