Cry Wolf - Kunzite

[So about that game.]

It was the way she was phrasing her logic... She made it sound like if we miss the wolf tonight, for some reason that means there must be two wolves left, when of course I know there's only one. [shrugs] Maybe it was just poorly thought out and phrased, though, since a wolf would know there's only one of them left...

[blackjacked]

I think it's most likely the latter. Kunzite never talked to Carnelian, did they. . .? She might not be as confident as we are that you guys aren't wolves.

[THIS POLL]

[EVERY TEAM I LIKE GOES UP IN OUSTING]

[EVERY TIME]

-- neither of them are wolves. I'm sure of it.

[surefire]

... Sorry... I wanted it between Turquoise and Emerald, I had no idea which it was... I started panicking when we were suddenly the team with the second-most votes...

[blackjacked]

No, it's-- it's fine. I understand that much.

[damn, another night. . .]

. . . we need to get Emerald tomorrow, then.

[surefire]

Yeah... If it's really not Turquoise, then I'm pretty sure...

[... just clinging lightly] I really messed up.

[blackjacked]

Don't blame yourself. You're not the one running this stupid game.

[surefire]

[a tense laugh]

I'm just supposed to be better than this, you know...? But, with people stupidly piling on us like that... [runs a hand through her hair] Why is everyone making this fifty times more complicated than it needs to be...

... I still think Turquoise is the more suspicious of the two.

[blackjacked]

Because lives are involved. People panic. They act to protect the people we care about. Hell, Coral didn't vote for Kunzite, and we were positive you guys were wolves.

[exhale]

I don't. . . know who we can vote for out of these two. But you should do what you need to do.

[surefire]

[... gripping a little tighter]

This may not be what you want to hear right now, but... if we don't get a wolf tonight, Riku is right. I don't think Kira and I will make it tonight, unless the wolves really don't know what they're doing. So be ready for that.

[blackjacked]

[firmly]

Why? Wolves taking you tonight doesn't make any sense. Riku said it might be because they're trying to end the game earlier, but if they're playing to survive, then keeping you guys in the game so you're still suspicious would be more beneficial, right?

[surefire]

Mm... I think I did my math slightly wrong. Sorry, it's never been my strong suit. If we don't get a wolf tonight, I think we won't get a warning tomorrow, but the game will still go on. I thought that would become the proof that we're safe sheep, but I suppose we wouldn't get a warning either if theoretically we got one tonight and there was still one left in the first group.

So we'll see.
