Game 005 [Voice] - Call the Bluff

[neverplaysfair]

[ The feed begins with a soft giggling. ]

It's so obviously a trap that you can't help but spring it. So, I'm curious. Where does everyone think this gate really leads? Let's see whose guess is closest.

[ That too, but a certain protective Composer is starting to get paranoid about his city. He is not about to admit this. ]

Present the first guess, radian. Let's plug in the numbers.

[neverplaysfair]

A survey never gives you its own answers first.

[yoctograms.livejournal.com]

Hnn. You probably have |no answers|

[neverplaysfair]

Do any of us have any answers? Isn't that the point of the trap?

[yoctograms.livejournal.com]

Hnn. Most of these 000s aren't looking for a solution anyway.

[neverplaysfair]

Do you mean their blind acceptance?

[so_shik]

Where else would it lead though?

[Voice]

[neverplaysfair]

Another world? A holding cell with no escape? The other end of the universe? The possibilities are endless.

[Voice]

[so_shik]

And how are you going to know if you don't go through it?

[Voice]

[neverplaysfair]

Possibly, you won't.

[Voice]

[so_shik]

Maybe you should try it for us.

...you're going for it, then, Josh? [ A certain Producer has been thinking of doing the same thing. For pretty much the same reasons. ]

[neverplaysfair]

I'm curious to see just how scary these big bad Malnosso are.

[nattocat.livejournal.com]

...I'm thinking of going with you. There's a decent chance it's no trap -- also a decent chance we'll end up dead or tortured or something, but hey. There might be a lot to learn from the way these Malnosso guys operate, and for Shibuya, it's sure worth it.

[neverplaysfair]

You know, all these years, I never really thought of you as the type to risk yourself over anything.

[nattocat.livejournal.com]

Did you? [ pause. ] Gambling's always risky, Josh. Stakes have been a little higher than usual lately, that's all.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

If it is a trick, I'd guess right above one of the lakes.

[neverplaysfair]

Interesting thought. Embarassing, potentially both harmful and harmless depending on the person. Also, tame.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

And far enough away that they wouldn't immediately storm back to the plaza and tell everyone it's a trick.

[neverplaysfair]

True as well. It wouldn't do to let one person to spoil the fun for everyone else, now would it?

[shadesandpops.livejournal.com]

Maybe in a dragon's stomach! Who knows?

[neverplaysfair]

Hmm... but it would have to be a different dragon for each person, wouldn't it? Otherwise, too many people at once would fill it past the point of bursting, and that would ruin the fun.

[shadesandpops.livejournal.com]

It would make a family of Fyulong Dragons very happy then!

[neverplaysfair]

Are those from your world?

[shadesandpops.livejournal.com]

Yes. Nasty temper, but a good bounty. You wouldn't want to mess with one~ [Not that Hyuuga can't kill one instantly if he wanted to, but he is rather strange like that.]
