꧁ 99 ꧂ - clover.

[ you're fenced in a part of the pasture that's been made to look like an interrogation room, though you're still standing on grass instead of tile. speaking of which, the grass has been outlined into ten segments. there's a grimy table set against the wall that's got the glass window, through which you can see the team you're set to face, but you're unable to hear anything they're saying. ]

[ on the table is a box that appears to connect between the two rooms and it's got two slots on it: one slot connects to an automatic card dealer and the other slot is open, meant for you to place a card in when it's your turn. ]

[ if your team refuses to play a card, then a d3 will be rolled and that card will automatically be played, but one of your team will be compelled to play it and then they’ll be punished. ~~for the gamerunner’s sake please try to avoid doing this every single turn.~~ ]

[after a long moment:]

... The 8, right? Because it gets really close.

The 8.

Just prepare yourself in case we need to use the 4.

What do you think I've been trying to do since we got it? We kept it for a reason.

I know. You're stronger than these cards.

At least I'm not freaking out like I used to, right? That's a good thing...

[but IS it a good thing though]

...you shouldn't have to accept this kind of thing as normal, but you've certainly grown as a person for it.

[ to him it is ......... ]

If I didn't accept it as normal, I'd never get used to being here.

[she shrugs]

I just... hate it.

[ he lets out a wan laugh. ]

I'd be significantly more worried about you if you enjoyed it.

At least you know I haven't gone off the deep end, right?

After being here for so long, being "mostly sane" is an achievement in itself.

Knock it off.

And the 8 is fine.

Would you rather I pretend we're not going to have to use it?

You don't have to tell her to prepare herself. She's been prepared since the start of this.

Ooh, how overprotective.

Pot, kettle.

[ HUFF. ]
