DAWON

[ Everything fades to black...and you awaken in a run-down one-room shack, with the distinct feeling that the people around you are your family, if you didn't already have such a bond with them.

You're wearing raggedy versions of your uniform, and a newspaper informs you that you are currently in Cathay, on the fifteenth anniversary of the day the company Lupus' Secret Stash led a coup and established their own government. In fact, you can now remember why you came here - to escape the misfortunes of your own country - because this is truly the land of opportunity and freedom. ]

Will you pay taxes this year?

...Added up, that's 2400. We've got a bit over 1800, so we should prioritize based on what's most likely to harm us if we don't have enough. I think food and medicine is most important.

Housing is important though, right?

Housing, too.

Food, water, and shelter are the basic things that humans need to survive.

All of them are important, yes, but it doesn't look like we can pay as much as we should for all of them. Which would you prioritize?

Food and shelter first. If we don't have a place to put the sick, there's no point in caring for them afterwards if we're out on the street.

Housing and food. If we're indoors, maybe we won't get sick.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.

It's definitely important, but couldn't we stay outside if we had no other option?

Also, what's taxes?

[ elves don't do taxes ]

We can't afford to pay full price for both of those.

But we'll need happiness too, won't we?

It depends on the weather. Do you want to be outside in the middle of winter? You'll freeze to death.

If it's absolutely necessary next round, we should add some of the items that increase happiness. That is, after all, the way to win. But we should develop a sound base, first.

So the important things first, other stuff later.

Something rich assholes use to support themselves and make everyone else suffer. It's supposed to pay for keeping things kept up, but I've never seen it happen.

[and i almost lost my home because of it]

Being without food for a round shouldn't be that bad.

...That's true. Even so, we can't afford to pay full price for housing and food, and I don't think it's a good idea to spend all our money on those two things.

[HER TONE IS PRETTY SHORT]

Basic needs first. Happiness isn't going to do shit without making sure you can survive.

Then we shouldn't pay it. We don't exactly have money for it.

Er, if all of the rounds are supposed to represent years, then I think it could be rather bad.

So even if we play it safe, it'll be a problem.

We need some food. Even if it's a little, we're not going to go without it,a nd we don't need medicine if we have a place to stay.

[the food bit is a bit short, but only because hydra's playing and going without food seems like a bad idea]
