JASPER

[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]

If you did that, you'd be liable to keel over and die before the game's even over. So no.

If I'm sacrificing myself, does it make a difference whether I die now or later? I don't think so.

Re: Decision

[alldesires]

'Course it matters, since we might still get another antidote. Keep your pants on and let's pass this thing off already, yeah?

Re: Decision

[rebells]

You don't have the right to tell me what to do.

Re: Decision

[alldesires]

You're not taking that injury. This is what little control we have in this game- I'm not letting you throw it away 'cause you decided suicide sounded like a fun way to go.

Keepin' the lot of you alive is the priority here.

You're a fool. Listen to me: you have no say in what choices I make. None. Stop acting like you do.

If I decided I wanted to do the right thing and spare someone else a painful death, that would be my decision to make, and no one else's.

[what if I ball my fist into the front of your shirt]

As long as it's not one of mine, I don't give a fuck who it goes to! I thought you had the best interests of this team at heart, was I wrong!?

[nope wrong move pushing him away]

I'm not yours!
