Re: Discussion.

[culpa]

I don't trust it.

Re: Discussion.

[bladefisting]

Neither do I. It sounds an awful amount like they wish to take our memories. Again. I only have a few of them back.

Re: Discussion.

[culpa]

We're not giving them anything.

Re: Discussion.

[bladefisting]

If they want it, I assume they will have to come and take it from us forcibly.

Re: Discussion.

[plotluck]

I don't even know how it works.

Re: Discussion.

[culpa]

I don't either but it's--this'll probably turn out bad.

Re: Discussion.

[worldsaving]

What? [ she heard that voice on the PA earlier, she's not blind to the feel of this game. ] No.

Re: Discussion.

[menially]

Yeah... I'm not getting a good feeling about this.

Re: Discussion.

[worldsaving]

[ immediately, voice sullen, ] We're not doing it, right?

Re: Discussion.

[theriverlethe]

[ Lethe snorts. ]

Something about that screams "terrible idea!"

Re: Discussion.

[menially]

And yet she's giving us an option to say "no."

Re: Discussion.

[theriverlethe]

There is that. But I'm not so sure about what happens if you say "yes", either.

Re: Discussion.

[bladefisting]

It is as if they were telling us with a large sign that it will be painful...

Re: Discussion.

[worldsaving]

[ hi, actual goat lady. she can't even be excited about the fact that you exist. ]

Figures.

Re: Discussion.

[theriverlethe]

Yeah, and I'm not into pain.

Re: Discussion.

[unguilded]

Painful in either case. A consequence, or a loss of something important which is its own form of pain, would be my guess on the possibilities.

Re: Discussion.

[unguilded]

Somehow I think "no" is going to have harsher consequences than an offering.

But I also know I'm not exactly willing to give something that important to me up, even if the alternative is worse.

Re: Discussion.

[menially]

Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking.

[Already trembling a bit....... AT LEAST HE'S HIDING IT DECENTLY]

Re: Discussion.

[bladefisting]

If it is bothersome to your team, I do not mind taking whatever it is. If there's a choice.

After all, I only remember about five people, and none are here. And the most important relationship I have is not exactly a relationship per se, so I would be fine.

[ Coming over to him, running a hand up his back and resting it between his shoulders comfortingly, letting him know he's there. ]

Once we see what happens, depending on what we do here, we can take each round as it comes.

Because it also wouldn't be a good idea for all of us to become incapacitated in some way that might affect how we respond to other things.

Re: Discussion.

[worldsaving]

[ ugh this SUCKS ]

Re: Discussion.

[unguilded]

[ It SUPER SUCKS.

He's coming over to Viva, though, gently putting a hand on her shoulder. ]

I'm here for you. So we'll be okay.

Re: Discussion.

[plotluck]

How do you give a relationship anyway?

Re: Discussion.

[unguilded]

It depends on how this one decides to go about it. She might take away all feelings and memories associated with the other person. She might reverse them completely, love and caring turning into hate and violence.
