tothelight | [ Game 61

Mmhm. We were doing pretty well, but I'm afriad I blew it for everyone at the last moment.

Nah, I'm sure you were trying real hard. Take it easy for a while...

Ah, sorry, I wanted to ask. Any chance that you got the clue somehow?

Well . . .

The clue? No, I didn't.

* ...sigh *

Do you agree with the Orion boy? That it has to be Scowl or me who's the start of the infection?

...I don't think the pool's as narrow as that. I think at least you two are among the suspects, but... it's hard to decide which interpretation to go with to narrow it down.

I don't think that could be it either. If I understand the numbers, then if that was it, you all could have ousted one of us tonight and the other one tomorrow. It would give the infected no chance at all.

Though, maybe she counted on us interpreting it wrong.

No, I mean... if we look at that scene at its broadest, there's five teams it implicates: you and Lacerta, Vulpecula and Orion, and Monoceros. If we don't narrow it down based on any other criteria than 'it's related to all the teams with a sick member'. And then with us trying to decide whether it's talking about 'those with a sick member actually playing the game' or 'those appearing in the scene'...

Likely, yeah. Just look at everyone now, there's all kinds of different interpretations going on...

Do you have anything, Aeris?

Nothing at all.

I . . . the image we saw, was there anything strange to you about it? I mean, strange about how they looked.

...not really, apart from a little haziness, but I thought that was thanks to all the gauze... Did you see something?

* LATER *

...Aeris? Do you see brown on me, too?

No, I haven't seen anything strange at all besides when we can all see through the veil.

Do you think, if you're voted out . . . you get to go back with everyone else right now?

So it's just normal now, huh... do you remember what it was during that time?

Iunno. Maybe like the last time we played this kind of game, we'd just be.... somewhere else, a while. But at the very least, she said there wouldn't be a penalty for losing teams.

Mm. It was Tsuna who started out strange colors. Lucky, a little, but mostly not. He got dark then, really quickly, even before he attacked her.

So then maybe these things don't happen at all until after the game. If Lucky was there . . .

I wonder if they even mean anything or they're just a coincidence.

She said they were 'futures'. But that could mean anything from 'it will happen' to 'it could happen', in the same way everyone being set free tomorrow 'could happen'. I guess.

I don't know. I didn't even realize I was the only one who could see it that way.

Mm. Well, either way. If you don't get to go right home when you're ousted, we know that Lucky didn't get hurt by Tsuna yet. And, if she did, well, then whoever goes home today can get a message out.

You and Scowl... someone said it could be just that you guys are delirious, but if you're only seeing them at certain times, it might mean something, after all.

Yeah. At least what we saw of her seemed to show that she remembered what we'd been doing in here.

Delirious doesn't mean we're not right.

So whether it's you or Canis, whoever leaves should get ready before they have to.

I know. Sorry if it sounded like something else, I didn't mean it that way.

Is there anything in particular they should do, you think?

No, no, I just know it can be strange, when some people see of her things you can't.

Well, tell everyone what's happening here, I think. Everyone there seems to be in far more danger than we are.

Kinda got used to it, actually. ...I had Allen's eye for a little while, once.

* nods. *

If she-- Veiled--- really wants to use people out there for her 'scenes', though, I don't think there's anything we can do to stop her.

He's only making himself look more suspicious at this point, isn't he? To be honest, I really didn't know either way when we went in, but now I don't really think it's likely you're the infected one at all.

* nods. *

I can't blame him. Everyone really voted against him... I can't think of anything else he can do, other than try to make me look more suspicious than he is.

And? We're all right to vote him out, aren't we?

Yeah. But even then, I can't really feel happy about it. He's just doing his best to stay in the game, too.

Still, don't look so serious. This isn't a Surgeon game, it won't even have the consequences of Mirror's game.

Unless you have some other reason to feel bad?

Mmm. It's not the consequences exactly... at least one of the things Veiled openly promised was there wouldn't be any for losing. But it's gotta be pretty lonely for him in a way, feeling like everyone's against him and he's got no one even sticking up for him as a friend. And he's pretty new, too...

No, that's the only reason I've got.

Hmm...

... * ? *

You don't think it's weird to be thinking like that, do you?

Still clean. What about you?

Yep.

Any ideas?

Claude, I know you're infected. It's OK though, I also know it wasn't your choice.

[oops brb going to go sass the Judge and get POOF'd]
