GENERIC MURDERGAME R3

[hagrides]

the psl of the Murdergame That Never Was

You've awoken in a creepy goth carnival, with a rasping moth man informing you that you've entered a tournament as part of a greater Ritual. The ritual will be complete, and the living returned to their world, when only one participant remains. If no one kills, then Grimm will be forced to provide a little extra incentive to get things moving.

Whether you like it or not, you're part of a murdergame.

reply to this post with a character in this hypothetical murdergame, thread out downtime, motive reactions, trials, deadland, etc. i don't run your life

...You have a point about that...

[yes_im_kawaii]

Why'd he even pick us, anyway, even if we did agree to it.

[Which still feels weird to her... then again, it's not like she had a human's capacity to weigh options and make decisions at the time. Not that that's an excuse when one remembers she never had good judgment even when she did.]

[tigerpoet]

Maybe he was desperate? I can't think of any other reason why I would be his first choice.

[yes_im_kawaii]

I barely even remember it. I think... auu.

[She holds her head and whines.]

I think I died. Or I was gonna? Or maybe I did and came back, but he was a lot bigger than he is now. ...actually, I think I was the one who was smaller... auu, it makes no sense! Why do I have no memory even when I do have memory now.

[Grimmchild floats over to nuzzle at her face. Don't be sad!]

It seems like your situation is more complicated than mine...

[yes_im_kawaii]

[Auu... She pouts and reluctantly pets them.]

Don't make fun of me, you're double dead too.

[tigerpoet]

I'm not making fun of you?

[yes_im_kawaii]

You're not? I thought "complicated" meant "weird and you should stop that."

[tigerpoet]

"Complicated" just means "too complex for me to really comment on". It's not a bad thing necessarily.

[yes_im_kawaii]

I guess. I don't get it. I thought I was gonna get all my memories back, but I guess that's not what I asked him for.

[tigerpoet]

You must have thought there was something more important than your memories.

[yes_im_kawaii]

What'd you ask him for?

[tigerpoet]

...A way to see my other half face to face.

[yes_im_kawaii]

You mean two bodies for two people? I guess that's a good wish, so you don't have to share anymore.

[tigerpoet]

Right. I'm sure he isn't happy to be stuck with me.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Why are you always so mean to yourself? That's like insulting other you, since they're both you.

[tigerpoet]

You think so? I don't want to insult him...

[yes_im_kawaii]

Probably. Who even hates themselves, anyway. It's not like you did any bad stuff.

[tigerpoet]

...Well, my other half did try to kill someone. Even if they aren't technically dead.

[yes_im_kawaii]

So did half these people! Then they suck too, right?

[tigerpoet]

That's not what I meant...!

[yes_im_kawaii]

It sounds like what you meant. What else would it mean?

[tigerpoet]

...it's different if it's other people...

[yes_im_kawaii]

I don't get it. I thought teachers were supposed to be smart.

[tigerpoet]

Some of us are smart, but we're also very foolish...
