GRAVEYARD aka the locked basement LOL

[protoshepherd]

[ 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. ]

[ NOTE Your characters will be able to see the events happening in the game while in the graveyard as long as they're looking at the Proto Badger. They cannot participate in any of the polls, or try to converse with anybody that isn't in this room. ]

[Chewing on a carrot.]

Why are they even discussing this? Does Blackquill need to sign a confession in his own blood or what?

[doubledefense]

They've been acting so guilty, that no one believes they're guilty. I just wish I could have a problem like that on a case.

[murimurimuri]

That doesn't even make sense. If he was a blue badger, what good would sacrificing himself now do? Portsman would still die in the next round, and everyone else would have worse odds of survival for it.

[doubledefense]

Ms. Wright is just too hung up on that first ousting vote. I'd commend her for following a lead, but even that has its limits.

[murimurimuri]

She's probably the one who murdered you, you know. Or tricked someone else into doing it.

[doubledefense]

You can make that allegation once you have some proof.

[murimurimuri]

It was a supposition, not an allegation, based on my own witness testimony which states that she was clearly out for your blood.

[doubledefense]

No. There's no way Phoenix's own daughter would be so callously dedicated to the rules as to kill Maya!

[murimurimuri]

Are we talking about the same girl? We can't possibly be talking about the same girl.

[feytality]

Trucy wouldn't do something like that! [Even though Trucy was trying to get them ousted]

[Even though she barely knows Trucy] She was just following her instincts!

[murimurimuri]

[tsks]

People betray each other every day. That's a fact of life. And that Wright girl, she planted a knife riiight in your back. You're not doing yourself any favors pretending otherwise.

[feytality]

How the heck would YOU know?

[murimurimuri]

Because I've been watching.

[feytality]

And you saw her change the vote?

[murimurimuri]

I saw that she would have had the motive to do so.

[feytality]

W-What is that supposed to mean?

[murimurimuri]

She believed that Team Phantom was innocent. Her vote against Portsman last night shows that. Now, she did vote for them the first time, but she openly stated it was only because she told your cousin she wouldn't vote for you.

Did you catch the careful wording there? She said she wouldn't "vote" for you.

[feytality]

[She'd noticed that wording bit, but...]

N... No way.... If she wouldn't vote for me for Pearly's sake, then... there's no way she's outright kill me....

[But she sounds a little uncertain, now]

[murimurimuri]

The act didn't pose her any risk, either. If she was right, her deed would be exonerated; if wrong, she could simply let the blame fall on Dahlia.
