GRAVEYARD aka the locked basement LOL

[ You're dead. Either you were ousted and seemed as an ally of the Bad Badger, or the actual allies of the Bad Badger actually got to you.

You remember dying. If you were already dead prior to this whole game... well, you're alive again.

Your death may have been terrible. Poison, being stabbed multiple times, blunt trauma to the head, hanged... whatever. You can still feel the pain.

But... Where are you? You see white walls around you. You're in a hospital...? You're in a room, but there's no one else but you and a man in a blue costume. He doesn't want to reveal his real head, so he hides behind a mask. A badger wearing a blue jester's hat.

And... another person? Has that other person been there all along?

Then you remember being in a mansion. Was that all a dream? You try to figure it out on your own, but you can't seem to come up with an answer. If by any chance you look into the badger's empty black eyes, you might feel like you're being taken to a completely different place. It's as if you can see the mansion again. You can see the people talking, but if you try to call out, nothing happens. They can't hear you.

You avert your gaze from the badger, and those images disappear.

There's so much happening. Pain, and this crazy badger.

You, on the other hand, aren't wearing a blue costume. You have a white dress on, with an opening at the back. That was definitely not what you were wearing... or was it?

You have so many questions. But at least you're not alone. Someone can answer those questions for you. ]

Yeah, pretty much.

... Maybe we could trick the badger-thing somehow. Into thinking we were one of the other badgers.

--you have anything that would make something pink?

[Meanwhile, Palaeno is seated against a wall, shuffling coupons like he's playing with a stack of cards. There really isn't much else to do in this place and the more he keeps himself busy, the faster time will pass.

When Godot speaks, he throws a glance the man's way, but doesn't reply. What is there to say? The situation's turning more unfortunate by the day and it's still far from "over". All the more reason to keep himself occupied, really.]

[Matt and Simon are worth ignoring at the best of times, in his experience.]

What is there to tell? I met Wright-dono and your cousin through court... I was prosecuting a case in which his client was an orca at the Shipshape Aquarium.

Keep it well-fed and obedient, and it will harm nothing you do not instruct it to. Raptors are not animals that hunt for pleasure.

As for hair... Would you really wish for a predator's claws near your scalp, or your eyes?

No, of course not. For a trick like that, it would use its beak; you have to tie it into the nesting instinct or it doesn't make sense to them. I had a couple of hummingbirds to do my pigtails back in the day.

[ So that explains the burning sensations. He had hoped he'd see them again. ]

Are you sure? Your kind of thinking is often pretty dangerous.

[ Didn't he see you trying to clamber into the badger suit? ]

[ That's alright, because as it turns out, there are plenty of candidates to tell him what's going on, or else skirt around it. Eventually he has time to wander.

When he does, he's not terribly interested in being far from the girls, but he'll still come and see Palaeno. ]


Solitaire?

[ He goes to pick up the box, and the hunger that hits him rather confirms the notion he's not dead after all. The last time he'd eaten, it'd been calzones back during the second day. Even as he peeks inside, he already knows it's not enough to feed all of them. ]

Looks like there's a choice between food and water.

[ Yes, he knows they're probably meant to split the water. ]

[ Going to be met with some opposition in the way of the pizza, as there's this asshole holding onto the box. ]

If you want a slice, you share water with your buddy.

[ Nodding towards Keyes. ]

[What's up fellow poisoned-with-coffee victim? Not that Palaeno knows about that. As far as he can tell, the visor is a very strange fashion statement.

He glances up at Godot with a bit of a forced smile. Somewhere between being 'murdered' and having to do his business in a smelly box, he stopped being intimidated by shady would-be convicts.]


Nothing quite so interesting. It's hard to make a game out of discounts.

[personal profile] talldarkbitter 2015-03-10 03:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Godot could tell him that prison was a lot nicer than this place, anyway, unless you were talking solitary confinement. He's not trying to intimidate the other man this time around - they're both already 'dead', after all. ]

Discounts?

[ He knows about as much about Palaeno as the man does about him. ]

[personal profile] turnaboutcoupons 2015-03-10 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[Ah! Well, then.]

They're coupons to promote the Cohdopian embassy. The tourism industry is Babahl's primary source of revenue and now that the two countries have been reunited into one principality, we hope to give Allebahst a more welcoming reputation as well.

[He shuffles the coupons again, then chooses one at random and holds it up for Godot to see. 15% off Babahlese ink (Terms and conditions of the standard Cohdopian export law may apply).]
feytality: It's super effective?! (Maya used CUTE FACE (in hideous uniform))

[personal profile] feytality 2015-03-10 06:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, what can I say... I live on the edge.

[It was a perfectly legit plan, okay. (No it wasn't!!)]

There's no pressure to off anyone over here. Just some weirdos and no real bathrooms...

[Yeah, forget the water, she's going straight for the pizza]

[(Someone should probably make sure she doesn't get dehydrated)]
feytality: Maya's so shocked her outfit magically changed (traumatized by this ugly outfit tbh)

[It'll make the whole experience that much more enjoyable]

...Hold up.... Nick defended an orca? As in... a whale?
feytality: This isn't a joke, this is reality (You fail at life Nick)

[personal profile] feytality 2015-03-10 07:06 pm (UTC)(link)
And you saw her change the vote?
feytality: feed me and you might live (might be plotting your murder)

[personal profile] feytality 2015-03-10 07:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's definitely the other way around!]

Yeah! [A POST-GRAVE FRIENDSHIP....]

What happened in the embassy, anyway? Maybe we can crack the case right now!
shacklebreaker: (hahaha u funny)

[personal profile] shacklebreaker 2015-03-10 07:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, she was accused of murdering the owner of the aquarium, and her trainer sought legal protection for the beast. No one would take on the case, save myself and Wright-dono.

She's the star of the attractions, though I must say, I am more partial to the penguins myself.
feytality: (PLACEHOLDER 1 AND A HALF)

[Well, now that she thinks about it, she probably shouldn't be that surprised]

.......

I guess he couldn't be satisfied with cross-examining parrots forever....
