[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.

I guess you can try to figure something out based on appearances, you know? And you can definitely help with our team!

Coral was protective, yet generous. Sapphire was helpful, yet a little sinister.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[ranoutofmemories]

. . . sinister. Did you get that feeling too . . . I mean, the others I've met have been helpful, but one of them gave me the chills once. He's a nice person though.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[andcounting]

He was courteous, anyway... are you talking about the guy with the beard, too?

Re: ❧ Discussion

[ranoutofmemories]

[nods!]

I played in a game with him!

Re: ❧ Discussion

[andcounting]

Okay, well, I'm glad I'm not the only one who got that impression.

So who do we have so far? I heard you say the knights are Sterling and Onyx, then there's us, Sapphire, Coral, Jasper, Iolite... and I heard Rei mention Emerald and Amethyst... and you brought up a Turquoise. Which leaves us with six complete blank spots.

There. . . was a ruby on that weird noticeboard earlier . . .

Re: ❧ Discussion

[andcounting]

Did you hear anything about them?

Re: ❧ Discussion

[ranoutofmemories]

Not really unfortunately.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[andcounting]

Maybe for the teams we don't know, we can just say "This team and its colour is still a mystery."

Re: ❧ Discussion

[ranoutofmemories]

[nods!]

It seems Tsuruume and Marine have the best ideas so far.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[andcounting]

It sounds like they've been out and about a lot already!

Re: ❧ Discussion

[ranoutofmemories]

I guess it won't be hard for people to remember us, will it?

Re: ❧ Discussion

[andcounting]

I think it's a positive step that we've made our presence known.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[ranoutofmemories]

So do I!

Re: ❧ Discussion

[andcounting]

I'm afraid I don't have a lot more helpful information at the moment, though.

Re: ❧ Discussion

The Ruby we met was shifty.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[ranoutofmemories]

Shifty?

Re: ❧ Discussion

[redblossoms]

He was either a lot smarter than he let on or damn good at acting like it, but it was suspicious either way. And he apparently tried to distract from it by being annoying.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[ranoutofmemories]

I guess that could be kind of shifty . . .

Re: ❧ Discussion

[redblossoms]

It was definitely shifty.

Re: ❧ Discussion

[ranoutofmemories]

Well, I'll trust you!

Re: ❧ Discussion

[redblossoms]

... Well, good!
