[ Welcome to the Game Tower! On the screen is The Red Sea Witch, who does a curtsy before speaking to the audience: ]

Gyahaha, hello! ✩ Today's show is a game long-time viewers might recognize! The rules are simple: poison others and don't get poisoned! Have fun~✩

[ Luckily for all there is no further injury! Everything's full of vertigo and haze but it's at least one that has her managed enough not to be fighting the chains or whatever beach-oriented illusion is holding her now instead of roots. Seaweed or a fishing net perhaps, or territorial crabs? For now, she's still. ]

[ Best think of something, she's probably not going to stay this way. Especially with a manacle around her neck. ]

[ He keeps stroking her flank, glancing back to the others. ]

I think . . . she'll be alright. But we need to figure out how to keep her out of trouble until this wears off.

If we're going to keep her chained up long term, we'll need her to be back in her usual form.

[ She doesn't want to find out what happens when chains in the shape for a lamb try to get reused for something in a completely different shape and size. ]

[ Thanks, he hates it. But he's sure he isn't the only one. ]

I know she likes the storm room better than her own.

[ Might be making a mental note to talk to her about upgrading herself to a beach, though. ]

[ The hate for this is so much that he's practically vibrating.

Just what is he participating in right now? ]

If-- she can be kept in the dorm, we won't need the chains.

[ Venti.... ]

I don't know if it's really that simple. Yes, keeping her inside is part of the solution--but we also need to keep her from hurting herself. You saw what she did to herself trying to escape the cottage.

[ Surely you don't want her to keep concussing and half-killing herself to escape. ]

If someone else can think of another way I'm all ears, but I can only keep her calm an hour at a time.

[ And if she fucks up can you imagine the rage? Aliza might just decide to kill all of them, not just Lupine. ]

Surely if she's in a familiar place, she won't harm herself so much trying to get out.

[ Surely . . . right? ]

If we could block the door from the outside . . .

These things usually only last a day or two.

[ ...But he winces a little to hear himself say it. ]

—My fault if it takes longer now, I guess.

The only person at fault for however long this lasts is the Production.

...

All right. We'll just shut her up in her room in ☆ZRAEL. I can trap her inside with something heavy until it's over.

[ What she isn't saying is that she doubts that this will work, but if Aliza starts beating herself against her walls again she will just. Take the risk involved with trying to chain up an angry vampire down all by herself, without any help, so that if anyone has to be blamed or feel guilty for chaining Aliza they can just blame her instead of themselves.

It is definitely a safe plan that will definitely not go wrong and will definitely not result in any possible harm coming to her. ]

Alright. Then . . . we just have to carry her to the hotel.

[ childe is still milling around as a fox, because he'd like to see them all get back to the hotel safely-ish. as soon as they bring up carrying her there, well, he looks at the candidates and... changes back. ]

I can carry her back for you.

[ Yeah, he had his mouth open to volunteer, but he closed it again. The difference between what you feel like you owe someone and what would actually be remotely helpful under the circumstances.

He'll just hang back a little, keeping the seashore illusion going (for Zari) until they get to the hotel. ]

[ if she hadn't been trying to gut you ten times over, then you could have been an excellent choice, but... childe will just step up to bat for this one. you could probably use a bit of a break besides. ]

[ time to approach zrael's little lamb. ]

[ She's just laying there, not doing much but occasionally bleating softly. And she won't do much when picked up by Caeli, he hasn't done anything to her and she knows he doesn't judge her aggressive side, which ironically helps to keep it at bay. ]

[ She might snuggle in against him though, sorry not sorry ]

[ childe approaches and stoops down, taking a moment to shrug off his jacket, so that he can drape it over her and temporarily block out as much of everything else as possible. no more sensory overload. you've been through enough, alizarin. ~~but all of this is apparently the beginning sobs~~. he scoops her up, setting a hand to her head and stroking her gently, giving a soft smile as she nuzzles him. ]

Alright. Let's get going. [ all the pets for alizarin the whole way there! ]

I'll meet you all back at the dorm to let you in--I need to find a statue or something else heavy enough we can use to bar the door of her room.

There's that statue of someone in the lobby . . .

I'll be waiting. [ literally! if they're meeting up at the dorm, then he's not going to hang around, so he'll use pack behavior and concrete jungle to get back there asap. it's a car, it's a train, ...no it's just a really fucken fast guy. ]

[ BYE CHILDE

Somehow she had forgotten about that weird ass statue there.... ]

Do you think anyone will care if we take it?

[ Not that that's her top priority but like

she's tired, she doesn't need anymore drama to deal with on top of all this. ]

It's fine, it's fine, we'll just promise to put it back when we're done!

[ ...Welp, so much for that. But that's what you get for not actually telling anyone you're doing anything, and it's probably for the best.

Man, he is tired. Most people probably would be, but a hard fight like that usually revs him up instead. What he wouldn't give for an Energy Recharge right now...

Checking his phone for lack of anything more useful to do, so his response is vague. ]

I think most of the weird stuff in the lobby's from old games anyway.

Good enough for me.

[ If anyone has a problem with it, well

they can just suck it. ]

I guess let's go.

[ Thankfully it's a short walk; just five minutes. ]

[ Trailing along behind them a bit ]

I can't wait to have a nap . . .

[ Factually speaking, he could probably carry both of you and Nightingale there. Glances up, considering it, then back down at his phone. ]

Wanna get there faster?

Sure. Do you have a car or something?
