CORAL

[dramatispersonae]

[The room is circular and surrounded by a series of ionic columns, the floor and ceiling stretching overhead fashioned out of cracked, white stone. The area beyond the columns is pitch black, and the room itself is lit only by dimly flickering candles. The candles rest on top of a stone table, which sits in the middle of the room.

And next to the candles rest four numbered boxes]

It's all of us together, so it means we're all risking a lot, but... it also means we have a better chance at discussing and deciding things well. Even if some things are going to be up to luck, we can still do a lot.

... mmm ...

I would much rather we have something nicer, if it was going to be all of us ...

It's all right. Even if it's dangerous, as long as we're all together we can be stronger than anyone else.

Let's fight hard, okay?

[leaning into it .-.]

And, and maybe after this ... we can do something nicer, maybe ...

[ nodding ]

Something nice and fun, where everyone can relax.

Even Mouse!

Even Mouse...

I wonder if we can find something like that.

Re: Discussion

[fierte]

... he likes books ...

Re: Discussion

[devilishfiend]

Then we'll get him to read us a story!

Re: Discussion

[fierte]

[a tiny giggle]

I don't know how he'll feel about that ...

Re: Discussion

[devilishfiend]

You, Canary and I are the team's newbies-- so if we use it to our advantage there's no way he'll say no.

[giggling a little louder] D, do you think that three versus one is fair ... ?

Re: Discussion

[devilishfiend]

[ so glad to see her smiling ]

Everything is allowed in battles like this! It's a matter of having fun and relax...!

Re: Discussion

[fierte]

I think that would be very nice ... especially after this!
