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

I have to write my own manga if I want to read some?!

[tigerpoet]

W-well, there might be some already...

[yes_im_kawaii]

Auu. I bet it's weird bug manga anyway. Like these weird plant meat buns.

[Yet she's still eating them.]

What are you guys gonna do where you're from when you get your wish? Only one of you fights, right?

[tigerpoet]

That's right. I'd like to devote more of my time to writing, if I can.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Are you gonna write about this place? I bet people would read that.

[tigerpoet]

I'd have to change some of the details, or people would think what happened made no sense.

[yes_im_kawaii]

I don't get it. Stuff that's made up has to make more sense than stuff that actually happened?

[tigerpoet]

If something really happens, you can't say 'that would never happen'.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Yeah, you can, it just doesn't do anything.

[tigerpoet]

Well... that's true, but most people don't? If it happened, it happened.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Weird. I guess it kinda makes sense, but not really. So if you're writing about real stuff, then you have to change it?

[tigerpoet]

If it's so outlandish that people wouldn't believe it in a story.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Then do they have to do that for nonfiction too?

[tigerpoet]

I don't think they do... usually.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Auu, that's weird. [She leans against him and finishes off her cabbage bun.] I guess if the Ritual's almost over, everyone's gonna go away.

[tigerpoet]

I hope we can still see each other after this...

[yes_im_kawaii]

You better. Everyone's gonna get mad if you leave them behind.

[And given the conversation they just had about abandonment, "everyone" probably means "Makoto" more than anything.]

[tigerpoet]

I promise we'll come and visit you if we can, Makoto. Wherever you end up going.

[yes_im_kawaii]

You mean it? You're not gonna forget or run away?

[tigerpoet]

I can say for sure that you're unforgettable.

[yes_im_kawaii]

[Makoto hesitates. She isn't sure what to do, almost looks like she's about to leave.

And then hugs Atsushi, hiding her face.]
