GAME 5 - CLOVER

[crittersheep]

This VIP room would probably be welcoming under any other circumstance. As is, it's poorly lit and doesn't appear to have a door. There is a fully stocked cabinet of alcohol in the back as well as a circular couch. There's snacks as well, but nothing really substantial . . . except for maybe the goat cheese balls.

Before you on a table sits a marble plate with dips for placing things. Nearby is a small notecard with instructions written in flourish:

Place a secret in the corresponding spot while speaking the name of the person you want it to apply to on that flock. Point values can be found on the back of each secret stone. The walls will not come down until at least three secrets have been played. Failure to earn at least three points will result in an automatic loss.

Secrets that have been guessed correctly will be on display for all at the after party. ♥

Nearby, in a small dish, your secret stones can be found. A list of names can also be found on a sheet of paper on the table, with a little note on the side: Choose wisely.

[beathollow]

( WHY IS PASTURE HELL LIKE THIS

but. fine. she'll play along. ... except... the more that she reads, the more she realizes just what is going on. )

... Oh no.

[aididitmyway]

...

I don't want to do this.

[eonsadrift]

None of these secrets seem like that big of a deal if we match them. Most of them are pretty basic.

1/2

[aididitmyway]

They are, but didn't we just do that whole other game with secrets and stuff? Even if that was just more about us.

[aididitmyway]

The big gay crush is Fantasia on you.

[eonsadrift]

Fantasia isn't on the very helpful list of names we were given!

[aididitmyway]

[she laughs]

No, but it was right there! Though I guess it wouldn't qualify since it's not a secret, anyway.

[beathollow]

It looks like none of us are on here... the only thing that could come close isn't even a secret.

( that being, zenith not liking sweets. )

So this is all of the others...

[eonsadrift]

So it seems...

[ he is absolutely a war criminal and has also technically destroyed a city before but let's not mention that right now ]

[eonsadrift]

I wish it was more of a secret...

Whatever. Let's try and match a few of these so we can get out of here.

[beathollow]

( local crime dads daughters have complete faith in him no matter what, more at 11 )

... Do we really just have to guess haphazardly?

[eonsadrift]

We should try and make some educated guesses if we can. I'd rather not lose if we can help it.

[aididitmyway]

Right...

[She stares at the list, though. This is hard.]

... I think Biscuit likes Tart? Maybe?

[beathollow]

Mm. ... Another thing that worries me is that last one. Especially with how... glitched the numbers are. It doesn't feel right.

[eonsadrift]

I could see that... would he call Tart a "nerd", though? He seems to respect him quite a lot.

[aididitmyway]

You can respect someone and call them a nerd.

Biscuit's always helping him, though... and honestly Biscuit would probably call everyone a nerd if he could.

[aididitmyway]

No, it doesn't. I don't like how that feels.

[eonsadrift]

Admittedly, I think I have a lead on that one...

I was in Charon's dream during one of those strange nights, and he appeared to be in a war strategy room.

[beathollow]

I actually have to wonder if it's true at all. Though... that does seem to suit him, honestly.

[beathollow]

It feels... forced, I guess? Like... it's trying to entice the idea that it's a truth with the high numbers, but it can't hide what it is.

[eonsadrift]

He doesn't strike me as powerful enough to be that bad of a war criminal, but I think his world is very different from mine.

...but that dream still hit a lot of familiar notes for me. That's also why I think it could be his.

[aididitmyway]

Mm...

I don't like that this is stuff that's gonna be shown if it's guessed correctly, too. It's not really any of our business, but some things are a lot more harmless than stuff like that.

[eonsadrift]

It does seem like something he'd say. Let's hold on to that one and come back to it.
