peridot

You find yourself in a beautiful red room, the edges of each wall adorned with real gold accents. At the center of the room is a long table, several chairs on either side of it, perfect for very serious conferences. In the middle of the table is a plate of strawberry jam tarts atop it, one per teammate present.

In the corner of the room is a hole in the ground, only large enough for a small animal to fit through. Next to it is a flat iron bar, curled at its tip, where a golden bell has been hung from it.

Finally, on one wall is a large poster which reads (or you find read aloud to you, if you cannot read):

Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water.
Jack fell down and broke his crown
And Jill came tumbling after.

Up got Jack, and home did trot
As fast as he could caper.
He went to bed and bound his head
With vinegar and brown paper.

Well, we can't actually prove his intent without questioning him...but from the rhyme, we do know that he left his sister behind. If she was presumably suffering from the same injuries as he, then he might have left her to die.

Is pushing him down another hill allowed?

We would have to ensure that falling down the hill would be non-fatal, which is complicated when he already has a head injury. I suggested abandoning him for a bit himself, but Ariel is not taking well to the suggestion...

Put him in time out.

[...cackle cackle!] How juvenile...! And yet, appropriate.

And he wouldn't get hurt. Perhaps we should also award Jill one of Jack's desserts as compensation for her injury.

It must be the best dessert.

It wouldn't be a decent punishment otherwise.

I hope his time-out is also somewhere very lonely.

In a room with absolutely no fun things.

Tch. He will repent of his crimes after this, certainly.

We shall see. Some never feel any regret.

Ah... perhaps now is a good time to submit an answer, Beatrice?...

Of course. Do I have the honors~?

If he does it again, then we can execute him.

[...not commenting either way] Hmm.
