Room 2: Peridot, Coral, Sapphire, Tiger's Eye, Kunzite

[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..))

Name me Peridot, and you would think of the rock before even our splendid team...?

[sirenes]

Team that's named after a rock, right?

[boxupallthebutterflies]

Right or wrong, isn't it obvious what the immediate association is in Aather?

[sirenes]

Aather isn't the whole world though . . . or is it?

[boxupallthebutterflies]

It still exists far beyond what we've seen, isn't that true?

[sirenes]

"True" even exists in this weirdo place?

[boxupallthebutterflies]

Place your biases aside, and shouldn't you see that the truth is just as malleable here as it is anywhere else?

[sirenes]

Er . . . argh, you're really good at this! You win! But I'm challenging you to a rematch!

[boxupallthebutterflies]

Hoh... [cackle!!] Ah, and I was just in the midst of coming to a truly insightful point.

[sirenes]

Then you should have picked an easier word! You're really good, though! I won't lose again!

[boxupallthebutterflies]

Of course, I'll freely accept your praise and your challenge, but I think you'll find that I'm a hard opponent to overthrow~

[sirenes]

Is that a challenge?

[boxupallthebutterflies]

Challenge me if you will, but are you prepared for another defeat?

[sirenes]

Defeat just once won't get me down, so you're the one who should prepare yourself, or are you underestimating me?

[boxupallthebutterflies]

Me being the queen that dominates the gameboard and captures all your pieces before you can scrape out even the chance of success, don't you think you're overestimating yourself?

[sirenes]

Yourself is the only thing you can think of . . . so you'll never see the great Miki Sayaka coming up behind you to snatch victory, haven't you realized?

[boxupallthebutterflies]

Realized that I have yet another overconfident challenger? [cackle!]

[sirenes]

Challenger is how we all start, but champion is where I'm headed, or can't you see my potential?

[boxupallthebutterflies]

Potential is one thing, but do you have the persistence to make it reality?

[sirenes]

Reality isn't real, isn't that what you said earlier?

[boxupallthebutterflies]

Earlier I did not necessarily say that reality is false, but that it is malleable, both here and elsewhere; however, if absolutely nothing is true, then do you even exist?

[sirenes]

Exist is something I definitely do, are you really going to argue that?!

[boxupallthebutterflies]

That is something that can be argued from time to time, but do you believe that is the point I was trying to make?
