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

[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..))

Tactic or not, if you're stepping on the rules by simply saying everything with a rising intonation, do you truly think you will be rewarded?
blackjacked: ('Sup)

Rewarded or not, my aim is to have fun, isn't that what all games should be about?
boxupallthebutterflies: (full of fish)

[personal profile] boxupallthebutterflies 2012-09-09 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
About that, well, I am often in agreement, but isn't it also often the case that many games here are displeasing to many people?

People are displeased by a lot of things they have a right to be upset over, so don't you think we should latch onto something enjoyable when we can?
boxupallthebutterflies: (and when you know the chorus)

[personal profile] boxupallthebutterflies 2012-09-09 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
Can you so rarely find enjoyment elsewhere?
blackjacked: ([kid] \o/)

[personal profile] blackjacked 2012-09-09 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
Elsewhere enjoyment is easier to find, which is why we should find enjoyment in games when we can, wouldn't you say?
boxupallthebutterflies: (full of fish)

[personal profile] boxupallthebutterflies 2012-09-09 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
Say, do you really think that many games are unfun?
blackjacked: (whut even)

[personal profile] blackjacked 2012-09-09 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
. . . unfun games are becoming increasingly common, have you noticed?
boxupallthebutterflies: (a day rolled into one)

[personal profile] boxupallthebutterflies 2012-09-09 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
Noticed, maybe, but as a whole, wouldn't you like to think that they're generally more fun...?
blackjacked: (le sigh)

[personal profile] blackjacked 2012-09-09 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
Fun is difficult to enjoy when every time you enter the ring you know you might be hurt, but maybe we've all gotten too used to how this place works?
boxupallthebutterflies: (in the spring)

[personal profile] boxupallthebutterflies 2012-09-09 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
Works such as the Personae's grand designs require more than light-hearted days of nonsense, but I suppose you're not sympathetic to their plight...?
blackjacked: (can you hear the dots...)

[personal profile] blackjacked 2012-09-09 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
Plight is a thing I can be sympathetic towards. . . it's even something I can understand, but can you blame those for feeling trapped and helpless when they don't think these methods are the best?
boxupallthebutterflies: (and although)

[personal profile] boxupallthebutterflies 2012-09-09 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
Best for you, perhaps; but no, I hold no ill will towards those who find fault with their methodology, as long as they understand the motivation... so perhaps I am only sympathetic due to my own experiences...?
blackjacked: (Jiiiii...)

[personal profile] blackjacked 2012-09-09 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
[pauses thoughtfully for a moment]

Experiences often affect people greatly, you agree?
boxupallthebutterflies: (wrapped in silver furs)

[personal profile] boxupallthebutterflies 2012-09-09 06:13 am (UTC)(link)
Agree I do, but are you hesitating...?
blackjacked: (Un deux trois...)

[personal profile] blackjacked 2012-09-09 06:14 am (UTC)(link)
Hesitating to to wonder. . . do you think I should ask?
boxupallthebutterflies: (emerging from my world)

[personal profile] boxupallthebutterflies 2012-09-09 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
Ask if you wish, though perhaps it might be easier for me to respond after this game is done with?
