GAME 5 - THISTLE

[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.

[soulsurvivore]

[pictureimperfect]

[oh this is a nightmare]

Uhhhhh anybody know any of these.

[survivaltricks]

[look how swanky Lupin is dressed today. yea I'm funny]

. . . does she expect me to thank her for this. . .

[survivaltricks]

[LONG-SUFFERING]

I'm pretty sure I know who the war criminal is.

[pictureimperfect]

That's, uh, some amount of points?

Why is that one like that? Who is it?

[shortforever]

[SQUINTING]

Wouldn't the one about angels just be Angel Devil?

[survivaltricks]

I'm pretty sure it's Blossom.

[AND THE ONLY REASON HE KNOWS THIS IS B/C FAITH AVATAR CALLED HIM YESTERDAY!!]

And if that's true, then I don't really want to play it. It's bait.

[survivaltricks]

That's what I was thinking. It seems pretty obvious.

[shortforever]

[Adding it here but Odin is looking fancy.]

Why would she expect that?

[shortforever]

Well how about we go ahead and submit that one first, and see what happens?

[shortforever]

Can we even pick Blossom?

[survivaltricks]

[shakes his head]

We have to play at least three to get out of here, so I doubt anything will happen from only playing one.

[survivaltricks]

Even if we could, I don't really want to play it. It's bait.

[pictureimperfect]

Ehhh, are we getting forced into gross secret reveals just so she can do a 'gotcha'? I hate it!

[survivaltricks]

[SUPER FANCE]

Because she basically told me in advance she was going to do this.

[survivaltricks]

Yeah, it's pretty crappy, isn't it?

[A STEP ABOVE PATCHES, HE SUPPOSES. . .]

[shortforever]

Alright, let's skip that one then.

[survivaltricks]

[a grateful thumbs up]

As for the rest. . .

[a beat, and then lightly]

I honestly have no idea.

[shortforever]

Right, okay. Well there's one.

Do any of you know what a Luddite is?

[shortforever]

And why did she tell you specifically? To torment you?

[survivaltricks]

Someone who doesn't like technology, and lives life without relying on it.

[survivaltricks]

I think so.

[. . .]

I think it was also a backwards way of saying "thank you."

[shortforever]

...we just need three points to not be disqualified, right? There's a 4 after Angel Devil's secret, so that should be 4 points.

We can just throw out random shit for the other two then yeah? It doesn't even have to be right, we just gotta try.

[survivaltricks]

[. . . hmmm]

[thoughtfully]

Is that how we want to play, though?
