MY LITTLE PONIES & GOATS (WHO ARE FOOD FOR DRAGONS)

[soulping]

[ In this isolated chamber, there are enough chairs around the rickety, rotten wooden desk to seat everybody. Some sunlight streams through the boarded windows to give enough light. You have pencils, pens, some scrap paper to brainstorm with, and a formal test sheet to put your final answers on. ]

RULES

[leadstodeath]

►You have two hours to answer all questions.
►Teams who do not answer all questions may leave with the flu.
►Answers will be judged based on “correctness” (from Sepsis’ point of view), though don’t worry if the answer isn’t right – she loves to laugh.
►Brainstorming/team interaction will also be judged; the more everyone is involved, the better! Have fun together!

QUESTIONS?

[leadstodeath]

Sepsis is still playing with her makeup and leeches back in the main room if you need her.

[gandere]

Can I have a match?

Also maybe a hint if we're anywhere close? I mean we've been discussing it pretty hard so you can help us out, can't you?

[leadstodeath]

Nope and nope. It's not about getting the 100% perfect right answer.

Also, I know the short guy talked about burning things down, and that's not allowed in my home.

[gandere]

Oh come on, the smell of burning rotting wood might make the air around here a bit more to your liking.

[ But it's not about getting the perfect right answer? What's the point of this game then!!! ]

DISCUSSION

[soulping]

[gandere]

This is gross. This is all too gross.

I want to leave!

[unguilded]

It's really gross.

Maybe we should just fill everything out standing up, in that case!

[ looking over the questions now and.



um. ]

[gandere]

[ Refuses to sit down. ] Sounds like the surefire way to beat this game!

[onebullet]

[ Going straight to business, mainly to avoid dwelling too much on the state of the room they're in. ]

Hippo..? As in the animal?

[gandere]

Maybe?

Or the ancient Greece guy. One of the two.

[onebullet]

Animal might explain the thing out there.

[ Jerks her head towards the door. ]

[unguilded]

Oh, another Tiamat! Hi.

Schooler thinks it's named after a person.

[onebullet]

Ancient Greece, right?

[ She knows nothing about it, she's just parroting. ]

[dirtdevil]

[then there's this guy, who looks like he may at any moment keel over and die. pale, frozen in place, trying to pretend he's not completely horrified by the state of this building. the only reason this isn't the worst day ever is because there was that one day he died impaled on a bunch of spikes.

so it's the second worst day ever.]

[gandere]

Mushroom, you could at least give some input.

[dirtdevil]

You want my input?

Burn it to the ground. All of it.

[unguilded]

Are you okay?

[onebullet]

Do you need to sit down?

[moderndaywhitemage]

Hhhhhi everybody... hi...

[unguilded]

Hello, another Epona!

[gandere]

Coco, do you know anything about medical stuff? [ What a greeting. ]

[dirtdevil]

[he's just going to give her a look.

a look that says "kill me."]

Re: QUESTIONS & TURN IN

[unguilded]

1. An oath to do your best in the field of medicine and in dealing with the health of others, be it physical or mental.
2. Right elbow, left elbow, right knee, left knee, though we have no idea if that's correct, but if it is, who knows what ancient Greece was thinking or doing when they came up with it.
3. Painkillers, rest, ice, going somewhere quiet, or death.
4. Therapy.
5. The normal body temperature is in the mid-thirties, so when a fever reaches the mid-forties?
