[You find yourself in one of Nyssa's quaint cottages - it's very comfortable, warm. There's water, tea, and a dining table with paper and pencils strewn across it.]
[twirls the pencil around his thumb and forefinger, an idle movement to keep his hands busy while he thinks]
We'll have to be a little selfish, I think.
[lets out a small sigh]
Out of all thirteen teams in Kyriakos, which one would you want to protect the most? I know it's a tough question, so if you can't answer. . . that's okay, too.
[ she doesn't have to think on it very long, to be honest, even though there's a lot of internal struggle going on. after all, she'd like to protect everyone. but put forward bluntly like that-- ]
... My ties with the Epona, Cats, and Alectryon are probably the closest. What about you?
[there isn't even a second of hesitation in his response, and he follows it up with a lopsided smile. he answers his own, very selfish question with bluntness of his own]
Some Echoes pair the Cat team with the normal teams, though. We might wanna make sure before we make any decisions. Also. . .
[he stops spinning the pencil and stares at it for a moment]
I wanna ask for her permission to communicate with the other teams.
[ he raises a good point about Opal and Tama.... and, well, Nightingale seemed nice too, for all that she can't remember her. how can you choose who not to protect? ]
Maybe... maybe we should protect the people that Nyssa targeted first?
Or...
... You don't think this is some kind of trick, do you? The people and teams we're picking... do you think she'd specifically go after them?
[there's a pause while he mulls her words over in his mind, before he shakes his head]
No. No, I don't think she would. If she's asking us to protect, then she's asking us to protect. She's nasty and cruel, but she isn't a liar when it comes to the rules of her games.
[he folds his arms and frowns. Opal and Nightingale would likely protect each other, so. . .]

Re: DISCUSSION
Tch.
Re: DISCUSSION
... Are we not going to play?
Re: DISCUSSION
. . . I'll play.
[he plucks a pencil off of the table]
We're being given a chance to protect people for a change. I'm not happy about it, but I think refusing to play would be a lot worse.

Re: DISCUSSION
It... probably can't hurt to ask if we can protect ourselves or talk with the others or know how the cats have been placed, but...
[ well, but this needs to be said. ]
Even if she'd let us--and I'm not sure she would--that might cost us something we don't want to pay, Kaito. You realize that, right?

ROUND 2
DISCUSSION
Re: DISCUSSION
Just three individuals this time, huh. . .
Re: DISCUSSION
I want to protect Eveningstar and Daisy.
...
That is, if it's alright with you.
[ how should they split three between two people? ]
Re: DISCUSSION
Of course it is, but-- Tama. Opal. Nightingale.
[. . .]
What even happened last round? She sure didn't show us any results.
/2
We must have been protected. We won't know what happened to everyone else until we get out.

[he folds his arms and frowns. Opal and Nightingale would likely protect each other, so. . .]
How about Daisy, Star and Tama?
/2
That works for me, but...
Re: DISCUSSION
Re: DISCUSSION
I'm positive Opal and Nightingale will protect each other, the same way I'd fight to protect Aoko if her name was on the list. S'okay.
