CLOVER

[crittersheep]

You find yourselves in a room that's like an empty circus ring, smaller than the Big Top that you were just previously in. The stands surrounding it are completely empty and, for some reason, you cannot exit the tent. In the center, a magician's box dangles from the ceiling by a chain, with more chains winding around it and locking it shut tight. It dangles high above your heads, just out of reach. Instinctively, you know someone is in there.

Underneath the box is a small, circular table with a magic 8-ball sitting there. Just by looking at it, you all know that if you ask it a yes or no question, it will respond truthfully. You can only ask it up to three questions, though, and it takes a moment to reset.


Although the demon is not immediately visible, you can still feel its presence lurking about . . .

[immediately looking for cygnus lmao]

Re: DISCUSSION

[aididitmyway]

So do I. Ugh.

Re: DISCUSSION

[psynchroneyes]

Dammit. Okay. No dilly-dallying. Let's just—figure out some stupid questions or whatever.

Re: DISCUSSION

[still holding her hand, thanks]

I don't think asking their gender will help.

Re: DISCUSSION

[aididitmyway]

It won't, because there are way more guys than girls. If they're a guy, we're totally screwed.

[ok good she immediately looks relieved with cygnus there]

Re: DISCUSSION

[aididitmyway]

I dunno...

Is there a way to ask what color the team is? I know it's gotta be a yes or a no, but it'll help right?

Re: DISCUSSION

[aiwillneversmile]

Maybe, if they're human? That could narrow it down.

Re: DISCUSSION

[aididitmyway]

That one could still be kinda hard too... like Zenith. He totally looks human, but he's not. But it's better than asking gender.

What about team colors?

Re: DISCUSSION

[psynchroneyes]

With only three questions? It's something of a gamble. Like, we could ask "are they on the flock associated with purple", but if they're not...

Re: DISCUSSION

[failsaver]

Could ask if it's a primary color.

Re: DISCUSSION

[aididitmyway]

[SHE'S LIKE super deep in thought for a moment...]

Cool tones and warm tones? It's a big thing in fashion.

Re: DISCUSSION

[failsaver]

........ would askin' if they've died in the pasture before help?

Re: DISCUSSION

[aididitmyway]

Maybe...

Warm tones? Cool tones? It's a thing in fashion to determine what you look better with.

Re: DISCUSSION

[aiwillneversmile]

But you know everyone here. You know who is and isn't a human.

We can try to use color as the last question to confirm our suspicion.

Re: DISCUSSION

[psynchroneyes]

Hmm... Which would narrow it down to Rose, Bluebell, and Daff, right?

Re: DISCUSSION

[aididitmyway]

I mean. . . it's an idea. It's not a bad one...

Re: DISCUSSION

[psynchroneyes]

Does anybody actually keep track of who's kicked it before?

Re: DISCUSSION

[aiwillneversmile]

If that's something they've payed attention to. I haven't.

Re: DISCUSSION

[psynchroneyes]

That... depends on how particular this demon wants to be.

Re: DISCUSSION

[failsaver]

Mmmmaybe. You sure that's not too, uh, arbitrary?

Re: DISCUSSION

[aididitmyway]

Cygnus suggested human or nonhuman, too. Like... are you human? We know most everyone between all of us, right?

We're not gonna know the particulars until we ask, though. Ugh.
