[oceansflower]

The worst kind! They seriously expect us to do this?

[she knows the answer, but... :(]

[lifeistooshort]

Those bastards have another thing coming if they do!

[TIME TO GRIP SOME CELL BARS AND START PULLING]

[oceansflower]

[While you do that, I am going to kick at them.]

Mm, they do. I'm not going to just let them do this.

[lifeistooshort]

Neither am I! If they want to play with people's lives, let them gamble with their own!

[loudly]

You hear that, assholes?! Get down here and play this stupid game yourselves!

[oceansflower]

Why do you always make us do these kinds of things!?

[roundhouse kicks the door one more time, even if it's not actually going to do anything]

[lifeistooshort]

[taaakes a step back, and punches the nearest wall with his automail arm]

Damn it. . .

[oceansflower]

[sits down, hard, pulling her knees up to her chest and wiping the angry tears out of her eyes]

I don't want to do this.

[lifeistooshort]

. . . what the hell do they mean by "make an offering," anyway? What are we supposed to offer?

[oceansflower]

What kind of thing should we offer? If they're not saying, they probably don't care.

[lifeistooshort]

[uuuugh]

I'd say if they don't care, then why should we, but they're not the ones staring death in the face and trying to barter their way out.

[oceansflower]

They're making it so we have to care unless we both want to die.

[lifeistooshort]

[firmly]

No one's dying here, Marine. Not today.

[oceansflower]

. . . Mm, no one is dying. We'll both get out okay.

[lifeistooshort]

[but what about other people-- no, he can't think of that right now, he needs to focus.]

Marine. . . how do games like this usually work? This is the first one I've been in.

[oceansflower]

[that's exactly what she's trying to do right now, too. focusing is the most important thing, right now.]

They always want us to choose people that will get hurt or die. Some games depend on how popular you are, and some games depend on attack points that you have to put on other people. There's never an out, and if there is, they want a lot to even make sure someone won't get hurt or die.

[lifeistooshort]

What kinds of things do they ask for to make sure no one gets hurt?

[oceansflower]

Things that are really important to you.

[lifeistooshort]

. . . like what?

[oceansflower]

In the elevator game, we had to pick people to shove down so that we could go up.

. . . It could be something like that.

[lifeistooshort]

No.

We're not offering up someone else to save our own lives. We can't.

[oceansflower]

I know-- I wouldn't have let that be an option! I'm not going to kill someone else to live. I'd rather die than do something like that.

[lifeistooshort]

Well, no one's dying! So forget about that option.

What other important things have they asked for?

[oceansflower]

I... don't know. It's never come up before exactly like this!

[lifeistooshort]

Damn it. . . without a reference point, I don't know what to give! Hell, I don't want to give those bastards anything.

[oceansflower]

I don't, either! They-- they don't deserve anything for putting us in this situation.
