GM - Turquoise

[dramatispersonae]

The room is like any other room, really—a cabin with a door, and windows, and beds. But the fireplace never gets warm, and the beds are hard, and the air is cold.

(Is it familiar, this place? It's hard to tell . . .)

On the table there is food—water, and dry bread, and there is a pot of stew that always stays warm, and full, and smells delicious.

There are also five cards, waiting for your decision.

Our team comes first.

Re: DISCUSSION

I don't like putting it like that.

Re: DISCUSSION

[screwthatnoise]

How would you put it?

Re: DISCUSSION

[hakutaku]

I'm sorry if it sounds a little stupid, but I think deep down, we try our best to protect everyone first. Everyone includes us, too! That's why we tried to play the more middle cards right? We wanted to keep us safe while not hitting the others too hard. It's only when it starts to be impossible that we have to do something else, and that's focusing on us and I mean, it makes sense since everyone else is trying to protect themselves. And if that's what we decide to do now, it's okay.

Umm, that isn't to say people who think about themselves first aren't good people. When you're cornered, it's hard to make a decision about what to do especially when you're trying to find ways to escape. I know cuz I'm pretty bad at that myself. Echo and Thunder have been doing a good job, and Sky, Mist, Tide and Korra have been doing their best too, but it's difficult. I'm sure it's difficult for everyone else, too.

But it's more like that's the kind of team I think we are. I don't think we would honestly put ourselves before everyone if we had the choice to! That's why I don't like saying it like that.

Not what I expected or wanted to hear.
