SCHEMES CONTINUE

[iamverybadass]

Who: Everyone
Where: Individual unit dorms
When: During Day 116

[ At some point during the day, Talon has visited each unit to deliver the preliminary assignments for the protection plan. Maybe he knocked on a unit's door, maybe he slipped a note into someone's pocket, maybe he used morse code! However it was delivered, units have their preliminary assignments and may use this post to discuss them amongst themselves. ]



[ OOC: Per request, an IC post for units to have any IC discussion they may want. 100% optional! Also: if you would like a thread with Talon for any reason, please ping me either on discord or plurk and I will hop in after work, but otherwise this is just for unit discussion among themselves.

Please use the unit top levels to keep things organized, thank you! ♥

EDIT FOR CLARITY:

• For convenience sake, please assume all units know who they are assigned to protect, and who has been assigned to protect them


• Units do not have access to the complete list yet. Talon would have explained that this is because it may still be adjusted if there are any objections at this stage, if asked.


• Talon is present in WC's thread and I am 100% open to getting tagged there if anyone wants a thread with him and doesn't wanna ping for whatever reason. ]

Do not be ridiculous.

[HUFFS]

My master is here, and I love her more than I care about my own life. As well as my brother, Miss Meka, and other people I have come to care for. There is no one on my unit who dislikes Senshi. I have always been advocating for this unit's protection, and so you insult me gravely by even the mere suggestion.

[foolmetwice]

It's actually not you I'm worried about.

[leans back, puffing on his cigarette]

Because you and Anubis-- and maybe Nya, actually-- are on that team, I really don't think you guys will go back on your word.

[backstory]

Everyone in my unit will go forward with this plan without any hesitation. Nya has already agreed to help me protect Senshi even outside of this, so you certainly have nothing to worry about from him. While we do have two new members, I cannot see them going against the grain, and Persephone is gentle and sweet. He wants the protection of everyone as much as I do.

Everyone has agreed, so you have nothing to worry about.

[foolmetwice]

Mmmm.

[another drag of his cigarette, before he dabs it out on the wall because he's RUDE]

Okay. I'll believe you.

["believe" over "trust" because "trust" doesn't come easily for Mars. but he honestly does believe that Levi's connections to Abi and Hiryuu will be strong enough to keep Heart safe when things go south]

[backstory]

[WHAT ARE YOU...?? Giving him a look before licking a finger and trying to rub out the mark himself]

The princess lives here too! Please try to take care of the residence.

[ANYWAY-- more lightly.]

Now we simply need to hope that more games are like the protection game from the past. I have no idea what the producers have in store, but we are at the very least prepared, now.

[foolmetwice]

I actually extremely doubt there will ever be another game like the protection one Exael ran.

[BLUNT. . . AND CYNICAL]

So this whole scheme might be completely pointless.

[backstory]

We don't know that!

[ Ever the optimist!!! ]

If it does happen again, then we are prepared! And we can always hope that a similar game will present itself to us instead of choosing who to harm!

[foolmetwice]

Even if we do get a similar game, you know they're probably watching us run around and come up with this protection scheme, right?

So they'll probably alter the game rules to make our whole plan extremely useless.

[he doesn't sound bothered by this fact, HE'S JUST. BLUNT]

[backstory]

All of the conversations for this have only taken place inside our dorms. So long as they are not really listening in on us here, then it should be fine. People just need to be careful not to talk about it outside of these rooms.

[foolmetwice]

[. . . mmm, well. Levi has a point there. one he can't argue against]

Touche.

Well! Nothing to do but wait, I guess. Wait and see.

[backstory]

I shall pray to the dragon gods that this will be a successful venture. I am sure that everyone will do their best.

[foolmetwice]

Can the dragon gods even hear your prayers from the depths of hell?

[he sounds skeptical]

[backstory]

One of them also resides in me and so I am sure they must.

[foolmetwice]

[. . .]

[reaches out to knock on Levi's chest like he's knocking on someone's door]

Hello, dragon god? Are you there? Hey, I'm just wondering why the fuck we're in hell?

[backstory]

Hey--- ow!

[Clasping his wrist with his claw...! Before moving it away. ]

Not in that sense. I mean its blood runs through my veins.

[Releasing him to lift his claw up as an example.]

I don't... have his strength like I am supposed to. But my claw is still here, so at the very least I have not lost the sacred gift that has been bestowed upon me entirely.

[foolmetwice]

Yeah, well. Unless you can harness that dragon god inside of you to kick some serious demon tail, that means absolutely nothing to me.

[harsh and blunt. . . Mars is a cynic]
