Trash Squad Day 1 - GAME START

[chinhotta]

[ Maybe you were going about your business and blacked out, maybe you were dead. Either way, when you come to, you are in what looks like the entrance hall to a school, except for the very well secured front door. Before you can really get your bearings, a voice rings out on an the intercom. ]

Welcome, kiddos! —How does that sound? 'Kiddos'? Too daddy kink? Eh, let's go with it for now. Anyway, welcome to a once-in-a-lifetime chance at romance and passion, with fabulous prizes! Find love beyond the boundaries of time and space! Original concept, do not steal.

Pick up your tablets and get settled in! A little later today, we'll have our first heart-pounding get-to-know-you event!

—Oh, also, no violence allowed! I know some of you kids are into the murder thing, but that's not the kind of game we're running here.

[ In fact, there are several boxes of electronic tablets around the room. When you pick one up, it displays the gameplay and rules.]

Huhu... it's not necessarily a bad thing... maybe it's a reference to your baking?

It would only make sense to have a double meaning.

[cantry]

[cute >o< expression]

But I make pies! I don't want to be the pie!

[slice_of_life]

[Goodness]

It really bothers you...?

[cantry]

I mean... maybe it'd be different if there were some real person who had cute feelings towards me... This way it's just the role they want me to play in their creepy game.

[slice_of_life]

I was about to say...

[stops herself, goes silent]

W-Well, some of these make no sense...

[glances back]

If we took it literally, there would be an assassin, an astronaut, and a "supreme leader" here...

[pause]

Uuum... someone is listed as 'poet'...

[cluelesscavewoman]

Jud, I was see through and I could put my hands through people...

[Stares.]




I still have the scars from my execution, see?

[And with that she releases the hard points on her shoulders and let's them hand. Tugging at the collar of her bodysuit to show the large jagged scar, right over the top.]

I have another one on my stomach where it came out.

[artisticliberty]

Why was I brought here, by whom, and for what purpose? ... to begin with.

[justpure]

[Groan.]

It seems we have no choice but to endure it.

[thesystemisdown]

[too genre savvy for her own life tbqh]

At least this time won't hopefully be as bad, right? If those chinchillas are being honest about the nature of the game, we can all just take it easy.

[thesystemisdown]

Oh, that's right. Are you worried about what'll happen if you stay here too long?

[plsbully]

They're not incorrect.

[counterfaith]

You can believe that all you want. Acknowledging it as anything more than a delusion would have to be acknowledging the possibility that I could be right, after all. And, if you can acknowledge that to even the slightest degree, then I have already been proven right.

[fightingoverdose]

[oho... he grabs it and she lets him have it, grinning]

If you say so. I try not to think too much ‘bout the past when I can be woekin’ on what’s coming up next.

[futurebullets]

...That's my name, yeah. [The "how do you know it" is sitting there in his tone, even if he doesn't say it aloud.] Can I ask for yours, since you seem to know mine?

[Hinata is Extremely Suspicious.]

[futurebullets]

[He blinks at her carefully for a moment. What a baffling person.

But after a moment, he sighs. Hinata figures he'll have to swallow at least a bit of his pride for this.]

...Look. I'm not going to apologize for being mad at you when I had a good reason to be. But if I offended you, then... Sorry.

[He'd rather not antagonize someone he just met, especially someone whose sensible aside from... that part of her personality.]

[purrtagonist]

And I'll be counting on you in return.

[SOUNDS LIKE A DEAL, SOUNDS LIKE A CONFIDANT]

[purrtagonist]

Yeah, but the question is: can you really trust a chinchilla?

[especially one who calls himself "papa?"]

[plsbully]

Well, it is terribly unfortunate for you I will never acknowledge it as anything more than a delusion. You shall not reach me.

[counterfaith]

We'll see.

[ and, abruptly: ]

Avenger, do you feel the connection to our Master?

[plsbully]

-- No.

[ at that his expression seems to shift, more troubled ]

In a way it's a relief they aren't here. And yet ...

[ how are they like

existing ]

[counterfaith]

And what of your powers?

[ sobering, tone becoming serious. don't you love this wild ride of light/heavy ]

[lefthandpath]

[blinks in surprise.]

... you're the second person who's said something like that.

[lefthandpath]

I don't intend to lose, if that's what you're meaning.

[plsbully]

You haven't tested yourself?

[cantry]

That's natural! It's natural to not want to make people worry about you!
