Room 1: Jasper, Emerald, Citrine, Iolite, Heliodor

[dramatispersonae]

[When you enter the rooms, they're fairly open and large, with enough space to spread out. On the walls are posters with a list on them:

1. Trickery/mischief?
2. Love?
3. Truth?
4. Snakes?
5. Masks?

Can you ask a question when it depends on the last thing asked? Asked thusly, what would you say? Say what you would freely, or falter? Falter on the same word, or manage to soar?

There is a strange humming sense of expectation in the air.]

((We're playing the questions game with a twist! Each question needs to start with the needs to begin with the last word of the previous question, like in the IC example above. There is a list of themes and starter questions if you'd feel more comfortable springboarding that way -- using one of our starters will not lose you points! You'll have the standard five hours, after which we'll cut you off, but you can pretty much go wild and have as many question conversations as you feel like before you call it quits and head to endgame.))

Factors in your sadism?

[thinkoutsidethebox]

Sadism means my pleasure, which is certainly a factor, but aren't there obviously others in the difference between a simple game and a destructive one?

[debossy]

One should think that is obvious, but very well: what are you getting at?

[thinkoutsidethebox]

At the moment, what do you think we're doing?

[debossy]

Doing implies we are accomplishing anything; do you think we are?

[thinkoutsidethebox]

Are you not aware that the fact that we're not is precisely my point?

[debossy]

Point taken, but yes, it was obvious enough; was my question not clearly rhetorical?
