The Greater Good

[spiteforthecamera]

Who: Idols ♥
Where: The Game Tower
When: Day 227, morning

[ On your way up to the floor, some sort of horrible medicine-scented something sprays into the air, maybe right on your face. No matter how quick your reflexes are, you'll end up breathing in at least some of it - and immediately, you'll find yourself feeling warmer, heavier, dizzy.

That can't be good.

When you exit the Game Tower's elevator, you'll find yourself in what looks like the inside of the Japanese Diet building, divided into two. There are also twelve sections in the back on the elevated part of the floor, divided by unit colored curtains; they're too small for more than one person to go in.

On a projection screen, a ♥cute♥ girl stands at a podium. ]

Heeeelloooooo, idols! ♥

It's time for some ♥ serious ♥ fucking ♥ business ♥

Here's the million dollar question: did you file your taxes yet?

[ with a tilt of her head, offering her ear out to everyone as though to hear the answer ]

What's that? You didn't? Well, that's not very responsible of you~ You're grown-ass fucking adults by this point, you know? You should really get your shit act together!

Tut-tut. That's okay, we can just do them now ♪

Yes, it's soooo boring, I knoooow, but look! You'll get points in the end!

. . . That's not a lot of incentive, huh? Well fine, if you aren't satisfied with the carrot, I'll give you the stick ♥ If you don't properly reach your accounting goal, or it turns out you're a disgusting parasite of society, you'll get pu♥nished♥ !

[ claps her hands together! ]

Alright, do your fucking best! ♪ Remember, it's for ~The Greater Good~!

[Transferring you 300 points, my friend.

Whenever the phones work. It'll be in your backlog.]

What happened?

[bondsofsuffering]

[Thanks, he'll appreciate it once he has a working phone and free hands to check it with.]

Each round went by with only one group saving a coin. In the final round, two coins were missing from the total, and BEDE determined it was Zrael, so... they got voted for exile.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I see.

...

So mostly everyone was just paying three coins per round?

[bondsofsuffering]

Seems that way. We had a surprisingly well-behaved group.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

How were you going to decide who was going to win then? If everyone had behaved.

[bondsofsuffering]

Some people were trying to encourage other units to "scheme" with each other to protect one another. It wasn't really working out though, so I'm not sure it would've actually saved anyone.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I see.

[He doesn't really, but---]

So in the end, five units were spared.

[bondsofsuffering]

[To be fair Izanagi is missing The Entire Plan here.]

That's right.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I can take it from here until the producers decide to open the doors.

[bondsofsuffering]

You sure?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

The numbing lasts until you remove it, correct?

[bondsofsuffering]

-Is now a bad time to say I've literally never had to find out before?

[Now is a bad time. But he will gingerly remove his hands, hopefully keeping the power in tact.]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Well, let's test it out.

For science or some bullshit like that.

[bondsofsuffering]

[Well, his hands are off!

...And the numbing seems to be holding up!?]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Counts slowly to ten]

Seems to be working.

The only time I've been numbed, I died shortly thereafter so I don't know how long it holds.

[bondsofsuffering]

Most of the time I only numb people while I'm healing them up.

[...It's still holding, though. He relaxes.]

Looks like it should be fine. I can take it off later.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I'll call you if it looks like it's wearing off.

Why don't you take a breather?

[Or fuss over the others. This goth is his]

[bondsofsuffering]

Mm, I'll see how everyone else is doing.

[Gotta be a good little white mage and all that.]

Later!
