[seaclipsed]

[ katara is seated in front of the bonfire, cooking... well, fish. fish is probably like 90% of everyone's diet at this point honestly.

anyway, this is a good opportunity for anyone to come by. it's almost midnight don't expect me to write anything more eloquent than this dammit. ]

If I were them I'd just always assume someone might try attacking me.

[vipmix]

You'd have no choice, with a game like that. It'd need something rather extreme to get the element of surprise on them.

[seaclipsed]

Fine. Then we'll do something extreme.

[ like BLOW UP THE VOLCANO ]

[vipmix]

That won't get everyone killed? Sounds like it'll interesting.

[seaclipsed]

It's better than doing absolutely nothing.

[zia voice] sounds like it'll interesting WHY DO I SUCK

[vipmix]

I wasn't advocating for that. Just for a little bit of thought before trying anything.

[josh @ the living after hes dead tbh]

:)

[seaclipsed]

I'm not going to just recklessly rush into anything.

[ lmao ]

:/

[vipmix]

Of course not. I'm sure every decision you make in this place will be well thought-out.

[narrator voice: the next week, katara lost an arm]

[seaclipsed]

They will be! They have to be, for a place like this.

[vipmix]

Very true! But I think you were present enough on Saturday to know that's not always as easy as just saying it.

[whispers they got called out]

[seaclipsed]

[ ugh ]

I understand that he was upset, but... he also didn't say anything when other people went off topic.

[vipmix]

He didn't really say anything here either, so much as angrily punch a wall.

[shrugs??]

Though I was referring to how everyone reacted in general.

[seaclipsed]

Hm. We need to get more organized for next time, I think.

[ that doesn't happen ]

[vipmix]

Keeping on track is important, though now that it's been made obvious the evidence won't matter, making sure people don't waste too much time focusing on it might be just as important.

[none of this happens.]

[seaclipsed]

I hope not... although I wouldn't be surprised if people won't hold the Chiefs to their word about that.

[vipmix]

Hmmm. Probably. [shrugs] But you've seen it for yourself-- they didn't quite hit the "outright lie" qualifier. Just very careful wording.

[seaclipsed]

... no, you're right. You have to pay close attention to what they say.

[vipmix]

It's the same of anyone on this island, really. You have to pay careful attention to what they say... And what they don't say. That's how the game is played. [heh] One of those annoying "demonstrate by example" type of thing.

[seaclipsed]

Most people aren't going to think to do that every single time though. Which they probably know.

[vipmix]

Most people probably haven't even realized it yet. It's what they're counting on.

[because it's early week 2]

[seaclipsed]

I think even if they realize it, they're still going to mess up on it.

[vipmix]

Weeeell... Probably. [definitely.] Carefully weighing every word that's being said? It's not something most people are used to.

[seaclipsed]

I have to admit, it's not something I am.

[vipmix]

Hee hee... Like I said, that's normal. The few who are, you should probably be wary of.

[... says joshua.]

[seaclipsed]

Do you think you are? I mean, you've been in a game sort of like this before, so...
