BETRAYAL AT THE HOUSE ON THE GAME TOWER - Session 9

[idolpro]

Who: Exael and the rest of you lot
When: To be inserted into the timeline after completion
What: Betrayal at the House on the Game Tower

[ The GAME ALERT and map show on the screen of your phones— idols, you know what to do!

The Game Tower elevator doors are open to receive, and close once they have you in their confines and the broadcast monitors click on. You can keep an eye on the city further and further below you, as watch with your host's introduction to today's game.

At the very least it's not Mukuro's face on the screen this time. Instead it's Exael again, pigtails bouncing as she hops up from a grand low bow— it looks like they cut part of her broadcast spiel for you guys. With a showman's flair, she twirls and splays her arms as the camera zooms out to focus on a grand mansion, more Hollywood glamor than anything belonging in Tokyo.

"Summer has come to Tokyo, and so has the season's specialty: The Trial of Courage! Step right up, and charge right in because waiting won't help you at all! Here is a place even angels fear to tread! Azzy's very own, The House of Mirth and Betrayal! This place has a sordid past that casts a shadow as long as the valley of death, and soon our Idols will be adding their own pages to the tale!"

The elevator stops atop the central tower of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building and then lurches unpleasantly, wrenching itself out of where elevators ought to go. The sudden movement jolts you, and when the doors open you spill out into into a room.

Hopefully, with not too much time missing. ]

[ he's not calm at all and he's not rationing his breath, saving his energy like he should be to keep from drowning, but in part it's because he's being held down and he's doing his best to hold his breath but he's exerting energy to try to get out of that hold, he wants to stay with Cardigan and he doesn't want them to leave after they've killed him, his hands alternate between pushing and raking at them but there's only so long he can put up that much of a fight underwater ]

[With Whiskey struggling so vigorously, Cardigan has an excuse to plunge deeper. Whiskey's nails rip out thin streaks of red that trail into nothing behind them. Cardigan knows their own lung capacity, and that they're approaching the limit where they're be able to make it back. They have to turn back—there's so much left to do. Three meters, two...

They break the seal of Whiskey's mouth with their own tongue, flooding both their mouths with water as they hit the limit, and try to kick off of Whiskey.]
