EPONA + AMALTHEA

[soulping]

[You land in a boat in the midst of the sea. The boat itself is simple enough, with only two embellisments; a masthead in the shape of a pair of horse and goat’s heads, and a clunky-looking cannon sitting right in the middle. Fog surrounds you; you can barely see past the edge of the boat.

There are also a collection of rather sparkly Epona and Amalthea-coloured cannon balls at your feet.]

[...........consulting the RNG I keep in my brain.]

2.

[ I'm too angry and covered in sparkly purple paint to consider adding any input. ]

This is my last non-ripped uniform!

[goodbyenurse]

I see. And where shall we fire?

[gandere]

Isn't it obvious?!

[goodbyenurse]

I have concluded previously that thinking like them is not something I am capable of doing.

Thus, I am open to input.

[gandere]

We fire here and leave this spot! That's what we do!

[goodbyenurse]

...Well...

[Hum.]

[I guess I did randomly suggest we move to 2.]

Five, then? And we go to two?

[acemedium]

But we just fired at five....

[soulping]

[your cannon rings out, shot firing towards 7... splash.

from your left another shot fires, whistling down south-east.]

[acemedium]

[So purple and sparkly...]

Mushroom can wash it... can't he?

[gandere]

I'm not letting some strange guy touch my clothes!

[acemedium]

Well... can you wash them?

[acemedium]

[UNSURE]

What are you guys thinking... Takshaka....

[goodbyenurse]

Focus, Star. We are dealing with Sparrow, Swan, and their final member who I have not met.

What would they do.

[acemedium]

They're getting off four for sure! But I think they're going to expect us to get off five, too..

[gandere]

I don't think it's wise to relinquish five to them so easily.

[acemedium]

...Huh?

[goodbyenurse]

Precisely--hence we shall stay here. Because it is mad.

[acemedium]

Yeah... maybe we should stay here.

Where could they have moved to?

[gandere]

Just pick a random number and fire.

Because that's likely what they've been doing this entire time.

[goodbyenurse]

...that seems far more likely than I would like to admit.

[acemedium]

....Maybe....

[gandere]

Of course it's likely.

When a game has a one third to one ninth chance of hitting, they're not going to bother with the math or a strategy!

[goodbyenurse]

I do not know...

[acemedium]

If they were being sneaky, they'd stay in five!

But I don't know if Takshaka can really be sneaky.
