Hey, Echo, Torrent.

Come over here.

--Alena?

[screwthatnoise]

Yes?

[fighting_alena]

Torrent.

A question for you!

[fighting_alena]

Echo!

I need to ask you something.

[screwthatnoise]

Of course. Please ask.

[fighting_alena]

Are Turquoise wolves?

[watching your reaction!]

[screwthatnoise]

[flatly, as usual, typical lineface still intact]

No.

[standbyrival]

I get the feeling it's an obvious one, but shoot.

[fighting_alena]

...well, okay then.

[screwthatnoise]

Are you a wolf, Alena?

[fighting_alena]

Turquoise is in the clue with us and Emerald. That gives our team a fifty-fifty chance of getting a wolf by pure guess. So...

You guys wolves?

[fighting_alena]

Nope! Neither is Tohsaka.

[standbyrival]

[flatly]

No.

And you know good and well that goes both ways. You want us to help you vote for Emerald?

[medpacksapunch]

[is here, just being kind of cranky in a corner]

[fighting_alena]

... [huh, honestly hadn't thought that far]

Um... maybe! What about the first clue?

[fighting_alena]

[I know that feeling]

Hi Sakura.

[standbyrival]

It's another 50/50 shot, though if we had to, pretty sure we'd vote for Kunzite. Nothing to base that on other than we don't really care about them.

[medpacksapunch]

Hey, Alena. What's up.

..I ask, like I don't know.

[fighting_alena]

But Ruby is different?

[fighting_alena]

The tension level, of course...

[standbyrival]

[light shrug]

Not really. I rather not see them die--I'm pretty okay with a couple of their members. It's complete bias and illogical though, so I wouldn't fault you if you went for them.

[medpacksapunch]

[huffs a little, but not with a lot of humor]

No kidding...

[fighting_alena]

[aaaaah]

It's like the 'popularity' game, but much worse.

[standbyrival]

No, it can be played logically. At this point though, I don't really care so long as Turquoise gets through.

[fighting_alena]

Logic, huh...

Listen, I've been talking with some other teams, and we think that Heliodor and Kunzite are both probably sheep. That means Ruby was our first wolf.

I don't want to vote out Emerald until we have to. So... what do you think?

[screwthatnoise]

...Alena, it is not one or the other.

[standbyrival]

We're not voting for Ruby. Period. Personal reasons.

But that does sound fine. Do what you want, what you think is best for your team.

[fighting_alena]

So... see any wolves?

[fighting_alena]

You sound very sure. Is that your entire team's decision?

[medpacksapunch]

[rolls her eyes]

Sapphire. But they're being stupid, so I think we should just-- focus on the clue.

[standbyrival]

Pretty certain, yeah. Why are you so focused on the first clue though?

[fighting_alena]

What'd they do?

[fighting_alena]

It's not 'both' either.

[fighting_alena]

Because I think Heliodor were sheep. And if we vote on a second clue-team and get it wrong, then that's a split vote.

[medpacksapunch]

[this]

Voted for themselves when they're not in the clue. I don't know if they're being noble or just cowards, but all they're doing is confusing everything.

We have a clue, we need to focus on that.

[fighting_alena]

What is this...? Are they confessing or just acting weird?

...right, the clue. The one with you guys, us, and Emerald.

[medpacksapunch]

I'm going to go with being weird. Maybe they really are wolves and want out, but... this wasn't the right way to try things.

[sighs]

Yeah, that one. I don't-- like the idea of voting for Emerald, either, but...

[standbyrival]

Either way someone's going to die, and the game's going to continue. Like I said, go with what you think is best. I'm not going to try to convince you otherwise.
