Room Two

[soulping]

[ When you sit down at your elegant table, you see a shiny, circular board in front of you. At the center of the circle are sealed glass boxes: inside, there are shiny jewels in each of your team colors. In the center, a shiny crown and black licorice ring rest on a velvet pillow. ]

[ The board itself looks like this: ]

[showbooty]

They lost a ring, too, so the crown is safe still.

[I'M JUST GONNA TAKE IT RIGHT OFF YOUR HEAD]

[gandere]

[ Smiling as sweetly as she can. ] I think I just decided who our permanent target in every game will be. Funny. I didn't think it'd come to me so soon...

[showbooty]

You're making threats over a plastic crown? You need help.

[gandere]

Oh, it isn't a threat.

See, when I say something, I truly mean it. I do hope you enjoy losing every game you're in from here on out. You'll be memory-less for as long as I can help it.

[ Knowing her luck, that just means they're going to end up partners in every game. ]

[showbooty]

Oh, that's fine, I've got the one memory that matters already.

[gandere]

Wha-? Really?

[ It's no fun if she can't threaten her. ] So you don't really care?

[showbooty]

Not really. I've remembered doing fun things with Ivy, so what else do I need?

[gandere]

So this Ivy person is important to you, huh..? It's nice knowing you're not alone here.

[showbooty]

And she remembers me, too, so it still doesn't matter. ♥

[gandere]

[ It matters now that she knows a possible weakness. ] That's too cute.

[grandstanding]

[sigh]

I didn't realise they'd get this worked up over fake jewelry.

[showbooty]

Are you the responsible one?

Sorry for your... [VAGUE WAVES IN SCHOOLER'S GENERAL DIRECTION.]

[grandstanding]

I'm the one who's too tired to really bother with it today. And it's fine - they prefer to win. So do I.

[showbooty]

She's making some pretty serious threats over a plastic crown.

[acemedium]

I think she's kidding.

[SHE HOPES]

[likebigboats]

Oh, this one is adorable.

[showbooty]

Isn't she? She's like a tiny chihuahua puppy that thinks it's fierce.

[likebigboats]

Maybe we should get her a crown after the game to make up for getting her so worked up.

And then steal it.

[showbooty]

That sounds like fun. Let's do it.

[likebigboats]

It'll be good for team relations.

[showbooty]

That's a fancy way to say it.

[gandere]

[ I can actually hear you two. ]

[likebigboats]

You're far too young to be so stressed.

[gandere]

[ Frowning. ] I don't need pity.

[likebigboats]

I wouldn't call it pity as much as an observation.
