Knights

[dramatispersonae]

Following the hedges maze for a while you eventually find yourself in a small clearing with another white table sitting in the center. On the center of the table is another letter.

"Well, in the interests of airing our grievances with one another I feel it's best to communicate in the most honest way possible. Take the four names I've given you and select four or five of the words listed that you feel best describes your thoughts and feelings toward them. Do try to be frank and open, Mother knows when you're lying.

And, of course, don't forget your dear Mother as well."

Disdain	Protection	Strength	Perserverance	Zeal	Uneasiness	Vulgar minds	Admiration	Friendship
Bonds	Good Education	Indifference	Curiosity	Meanness	Wit	Bluntness	Frankness	Hope
Insincerity	Bravery	Dignity	Treachery	Stoicism	Horror	Coldness	Pity	Surprise
Envy	Zest	Weakness	Sourness of Temper	Amiability	Virtue	Busybody	Variety	Independence
Uselessness	Warmth	Tears	Unamity	Tranquility	Energy in Adversity	Mildness	Silliness	Sympathy

RULES: As an individual, pick 4-5 adjectives to describe how you feel about the 2 teams and 2 knights e-mailed to you. Also pick 4-5 to describe your feelings toward ~Mother~. Reply to the turn in comment by 12am EST / 9pm PST with your results. PLEASE keep your other knight names private, but feel free to mingle/discussion otherwise! Assume that characters who can't read hear Mother's voice reading the words in their head.

Yeah, I'll try to work on mine through guesswork!

Re: [Discussion]

[quercusoptima]

... well, at least you'll be narrowing down your guesses ...

Re: [Discussion]

[virtuallyroyalty]

Oh! I have an idea! How about we cross check what flowers we have in common to see if it might be the right meaning?

Re: [Discussion]

[quercusoptima]

Ah, that's not a bad idea -- we could make a full list.

Re: [Discussion]

[virtuallyroyalty]

That's what I was thinking. I can label mine real quick.

Re: [Discussion]

[quercusoptima]

I might have paper somewhere.

Re: [Discussion]

[virtuallyroyalty]

That's be good.

Re: [Discussion]

[virtuallyroyalty]

[ Notebook!! Let's assume we also have a pen, and Kazuki quickly notes down and attaches labels to his flowers. It comes out like so: ]

Bouquet 1
1: Curiousity?
2: Surprise!
3: Zest? Variety?
4: Admiration!

Bouquet 2:
1: Strength or bravery
2: Friendship or protection
3:
4:

... white flowers... energy? Zeal or hope or independence and silliness... those kind of words... pretty sure I don't apply to any of the mean ones.

Bouquet 3:
1: Strength! Since mint is a strong flavour, right? Oh, maybe that means the other one is bravery...
2: More white...
3: Friendship or protection again... though they're different flowers.
4: Perserverance?
5: Tranquility...? That doesn't suit me at all... maybe virtue?

Bouquet 4:
1: Admiration.
2: Zest or variety again...
3: Variety or unamity? I'm pretty sure I'm not horrifying, and it doesn't really match...
4: This white flower again...

Re: [Discussion]

[edgeofjustice]

The white one is probably zeal.

Re: [Discussion]

[virtuallyroyalty]

Which white one. The one which shows up twice?

Re: [Discussion]

[edgeofjustice]

Yeah.

Re: [Discussion]

[hunting]

... you're not using the colors.

Re: [Discussion]

[virtuallyroyalty]

What are you--

[ takes a closer look at some ] Oh, I messed up! It's hard to keep track of it all, you know!

Re: [Discussion]

[hunting]

[orz]

Re: [Discussion]

[floorcandy]

[waving a bunch of Fool's parsley]

I have this in every single one of my bouquets, so you can probably pick whatever white word applies to me most and go with it.

Re: [Discussion]

[hunting]

That's easy.

Re: [Discussion]

[floorcandy]

Oh~?

Re: [Discussion]

[virtuallyroyalty]

... silliness.

Re: [Discussion]

[floorcandy]

Did you even think about it...

Re: [Discussion]

[quercusoptima]

... silliness definitely ...

Re: [Discussion]

[floorcandy]

Why's the silly one got to be poisonous...

Re: [Discussion]

[virtuallyroyalty]
