Heliodor + Turquoise

[dramatispersonae]

Through the doors, you find yourselves in a small circular room that seems to be decorated much in the same way as the ring is decorated today. The curtains are in alternating colors of your teams, and in the center stand are three surprisingly lifelike, but faceless sculptures. They stand with their backs to one another, facing out to the chairs. About each of their necks is a cord that holds a sign written in a fine, looping cursive.

She's calmer than you right now, you know.

You don't have to do it. Or watch.

I'm not that weak. I'm worried some of us might get outta hand.

I think I'm done acting as the arbiter for today, if that's what you're worried about.

Re: Round Three - Discussion

[familyjewels]

Yeah? Good.

It's probably better than the alternative.

Besides, the song will be the hard part.

--wait, I got this. Mother, can I get some stuff to write up the song?

[CREEPY.

takes the pen and starts writing up some really terrible song lyrics, with lots of scribbling and snickers. the finished product is a short ditty about being more optimistic, using such examples as blowing raspberries at Mother, telling Mother she stinks, sticking your butt out at Mother, etc. etc.]

Guys, guys, come here and tell me what you think.

Let's do it.

Well, if I knew it was a song like that, I would have been find doing a solo.
