❧ Jasper

[dramatispersonae]

The Ring seems to fade out around you. More to the point, it seems like the world just zeroes in on your small dessert table and your team. You appear to be in a lantern-lit garden, though if you try to stray away from the table, you find yourself disoriented and turning back around to face it. There is a gentle sound of water running.

There is a book and quill on the table now, too. The pages are blank, for now. When writing does appear, you find you're able to understand the words regardless of whether you can read or not.

You think I'm courageous...?

Re: ❧ Discussion

[mysong]

Mmm! I think so too!

Re: ❧ Discussion

[unbalancedscales]

Oh...

Re: ❧ Discussion

[debossy]

You seem to handle yourself well enough for one so young. And I imagine you have some difficulty in regards to your physical state, but you don't appear to let others intimidate you on account of it. That takes some courage.

[ducks his head]

Ah... at any rate... if we compare our answers, it looks like this.

loyal - Saya (x2)
secretive - Swift, Azure
honest - Saya, Ivory
inconsiderate - Ivory (x2)
uncooperative - Ivory, Erika
courageous - Erika, Azure
stubborn - Ivory (x2)
controlling - Erika (x2)
affectionate - Saya (x2)
responsible - Swift, Ivory
lazy - Azure, Erika
jealous - Azure
rebellious - Azure, Swift
immature - Saya (x2)
impractical - Ivory, Saya
unreliable - Saya (x2)
trustworthy - Swift (x2)
self-confident - Erika (x2)
self-centered - Erika (x2)
dependent - Saya (x2)
sympathetic - Saya, Azure

From the ones where we have two different options, do we want to pick...?

Re: ❧ Discussion

[rebells]

I'd take Saya for sympathetic . . . and you for lazy, I suppose. Over the alternative.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[thinkoutsidethebox]

I'm not lazy. But I don't care either way on the rest.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[debossy]

Hmph. I wouldn't call myself uncooperative. The others I suppose I take no issue with. After all, it doesn't do to be excessively practical in every matter.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[rebells]

Honestly, I wouldn't call any of us uncooperative . . . I'll take it if others have a problem, though, since I'm sure people off the team might see me that way.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[debossy]

Well, they don't matter, do they?

Re: ❧ Discussion

[rebells]

Haha. No, I don't expect they do.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[unbalancedscales]

I was just thinking about how you denied this was real early on. That's all.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[debossy]

Likewise, Erika refused to explain where I was and how I'd arrived when I first appeared here, which is why I called her that. She's been cooperative enough in this game, though. Swift has volunteered to take that one.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[unbalancedscales]

Oh, I didn't see that. I gave a new version of the list, but we have one left to decide so I can change that there after we did that. Swift cooperated with me a lot when we first met though.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[mysong]

Mmm... [THINKING VERY HARD]

Secretive would fit best with Azure. Ivory can have honest. Um...I can't decide for uncooperative. Azure is really courageous though. Swift makes lists so I guess he's responsible. I don't know about lazy but Azure said he was so he can have it. Azure has a lot of words so Swift can have rebellious....I can take impractical since Ivory has a lot of words too.

...And sympathetic sounds nice. Is it okay if I have it?

Re: ❧ Discussion

[debossy]

"Sympathetic" could mean one of two things. I believe we each parsed it differently. You're free to it, then.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[rebells]

I think that's all right.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[rebells]

Ah, since Erika doesn't seem to mind being 'uncooperative' and Ivory does, we can give it to her. In the interest of moving on.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[unbalancedscales]

Okay, it looks like this now...

loyal - Saya
secretive - Azure
honest - Ivory
inconsiderate - Ivory
uncooperative - Erika
courageous - Azure
stubborn - Ivory
controlling - Erika
affectionate - Saya
responsible - Swift
lazy - Azure
jealous - Azure
rebellious - Swift
immature - Saya
impractical - Ivory, Saya
unreliable - Saya
trustworthy - Swift
self-confident - Erika
self-centered - Erika
dependent - Saya
sympathetic - Saya

Both Ivory and Saya agreed to take impractical, so that's the only one we have to decide on.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[rebells]

. . . Ivory if I have to pick one. Honestly, I don't think it really matters.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[debossy]

I have fewer words. I don't mind it. Unwarranted practicality is a recipe for lack of creativity.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[mysong]

Okay. That sounds fair!

Re: ❧ Discussion

[unbalancedscales]

loyal - Saya
secretive - Azure
honest - Ivory
inconsiderate - Ivory
uncooperative - Swift
courageous - Azure
stubborn - Ivory
controlling - Erika
affectionate - Saya
responsible - Swift
lazy - Azure
jealous - Azure
rebellious - Swift
immature - Saya
impractical - Ivory
unreliable - Saya
trustworthy - Swift
self-confident - Erika
self-centered - Erika
dependent - Saya
sympathetic - Saya

Okay. Here's all that, then. I also swapped Swift in for Uncooperative because I missed people deciding that. If this is okay by everyone let's get it over with and turn it in.
