dramatispersonae

[ When you step into the room, you'll find it dimly lit once more, with a spotlight over a simple wooden table with chairs around it. On the table are three cards, one with a single word on it, one with a short phrase, and one with the rules. You can also hear Peter's voice, though you can't see him. ]

You can't just be strong and brave to be a good adventurer, you know. You must also be very clever. I'm so very clever that I can get other people to say exactly what I want them to say all the time. But I must know if any of you are as clever as I am. To make it much easier for you, I will give you a word and a phrase that you must get other people to say to you. Every person you trick will get you points and you'll get more points for phrases!

… Oh, and no cheating! If another team figures out your word or phrase and tells it to me, they'll steal one of your end points! Oh, oh, and let's make a bet if you think you are the most clever! If you tell me the name of one specific person you can trick into saying your word or phrase, then I'll give you double the points for it! But if you fail, you'll lose points. Won't that be most interesting?

Game Start

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

1) Your goal is to trick a person/multiple persons on another team into saying your word/phrase to you.
2) You cannot say your word or exact phrase to another team, but you can try to prompt another team indirectly into saying your phrase.
3) Your character cannot remain silent during the game. If they try not to say anything, they'll feel compelled to respond instead.
4) If your team figures out another team's word and/or phrase, they can submit it under "TURN IN" to steal up to two points from that team! (One for the word, one for the phrase)
5) You can also make a bet with Peter Pan. Under "THE BET," you can submit the name of a specific person (1 per teammate ie 3 teammates, 3 targets) you are confident in being able to trick into saying your word and/or phrase. If you succeed, you'll earn double points. If you fail, you'll lose points equal to the original value of the points. A team cannot all pick the same target.
6) Once you've succeeded in tricking someone into saying your word/phrase, submit the thread to "TURN IN"

Card 1: "ocean"
Card 2: "that sounds fun"

[eyeing the cards, idly drumming his fingers against the table]

Straightforward enough.

Yeah. Kind of fun.

[shrugs lightly]

Betcha I could get Percy on Citrine to say 'ocean.' He has a water affinity.

I wonder if there's anyone I could trick for sure?

Anemone had a pretty good idea. Try talking to people about the beach.

Yeah. That might work for both phrases, though it could be obvious, too....

I like our words.

[still grumpy, but taking in a deep breath and trying to pull up a smile for her]

They could be worse, couldn't they?

Definitely.

Any ideas on who you wanna pick for your bets?

Umm... I don't know if I'm very good at getting people to do stuff. But I could talk to people I know about going to the beach. That could get either of the two.

Me too. They're nice.

And easy to talk about, too.

Yeah! It's not hard to come up with things that're fun.

Who are you thinking of asking?

Name your target here. You must pick a target before beginning play!

I bet I can get Mikage to say 'ocean', and 'that sounds fun'.

Um... I'm going to try to get Homura-chan to say those things.

Betcha I can get Percy from Citrine to say 'ocean.'

[With Homura: Word, check! Phrase... so close!]

Link.

Lloyd called the sunrise that, so 'm guessing his word was 'sunrise.'

Alena told me to show her a trick 'with that face that I do,' so I bet Carnelian's phrase is 'poker face.' I also managed to get her to say ocean.

Selenia said ocean, too.
