the general - night two.

[foxhounds]

THE GENERAL night two Instead of waking up in the jungle, you wake up elsewhere. This is the square where The General comes to decide what to do, and Ivan patiently sits on a bench, though she's as impassive as ever to what's going on. Each of you has your own foxhound who's barking happily to welcome you back. They'll help you find who you choose to hunt tonight. After all, you're saving them. You have a little while to discuss who you'll hunt tonight, but don't linger too long, since you only have until dawn. rulebook character statuses profiles All night votes will be due 8/14 by 5PM EST

So it comes back to those two again, huh...?

[Fuuma and Kamui... what a weird, dangerous pair.]

But yeah, I know what you mean. I didn't want to vote for him, and I still don't want to kill him, but... isn't it better this way? To be able to die sooner, rather than having to go through -- through this game.

And then he wouldn't have to worry about being used in other people's plots, either.

[meatery]

I... guess that's true. He'd feel bad at the end if it turned out he helped those guys win, I'm sure.

[Sighs.] All that stuff he said though...

[hopefragment]

I know...

Even with what he said he did, I can't think he's a bad guy. Not when he just volunteered to die like that.

[meatery]

He's definitely not a bad guy.

[Said firmly. Gi-ne may have slightly lower standards for this than most people.]

I know guys who- well, he's just not.

[hopefragment]

...I believe you.

[He's not sure why, but he's willing to trust murdermom's judgement for something like this.]

But still... he's definitely an option.

[meatery]

[GOOD CALL, HINATA]

Yeah... [Sigh.] I won't count him out then.

[hopefragment]

...What about Matt? The lawyer. I talked to him about my situation on the island, but more than that... he's the one who brought up the idea of people sharing information through a go-between. I think a lot of people might think he'd be a good option for that, you know?

[meatery]

True. And he's one of the smart ones too.

[THOUGH CHALLENGING A BLIND GUY TO A FIGHT... Though his profile says he can fight so maybe it's okay.]

[hopefragment]

Yeah. He seems like a genuinely nice guy who wants to help... and I know I could get him in a position for one of you guys to get at him, if you needed to.

[Not volunteering to kill him himself, are you kidding.]

And he definitely wouldn't be killed in a trial unless something goes really really wrong, while with Bols... there might still be some people who'd be willing to vote for him if no other answer presents itself during the trial. That... buys us some time for taking care of Fuuma or Kamui without arousing as much suspicion.

[meatery]

Even if he has combat experience, a guy who can't see can't be too much of a physical threat either...

[So it's okay for the weenie cru to tag along.]

I don't mind if the others don't.

[hopefragment]

Only if we can't think of anyone else though, okay?

[He actually does like Matt, in a way. Even though the fact that Matt confronted him about the island scares him, Hinata had meant it when he said he was a good guy.]

[meatery]

[And Gi-ne likes Bols!! They're doing this for them!!]

We could always just pick someone at random to really throw them off.

[hopefragment]

Y-you're kidding, right!?

[meatery]

... Is that worse than picking someone deliberately?

[asking for a friend]

[unrulyprincess]

What if, rather than Fuuma, we chose Kamui, then?

[She tilts her head slightly.]

And then Fuuma the next night? It may throw them off, as well.

[wartorns]

I think taking out Kamui might make Fuuma look more trustworthy. I mean, you wouldn't expect a foxhound to kill one of their friends, right?

[unrulyprincess]

Oh... w-well, yes, is that...

[???]

Is that bad?

[Clarine is Good at this.]

[hijiwanwan]

Let's look at this. If we ignore all the swords, Fuuma and Kamui what options does that leave us with?

[ He'd rather take out Fuuma but if they have to wait... ]

[unrulyprincess]

... There are still quite a few others, are there not?

[IT HARDLY NARROWS IT DOWN AT ALL]

[hijiwanwan]

About a good... 20 people, am I correct?

[ Something like that. ]

Usually, in my case [ Wars and stuff. ] I would just kill anyone who's in front of me but this is... Different. We have to take out the big threats.

[unrulyprincess]

...What are the "big threats"? The...people more likely to figure out who we are, I suppose?

[hijiwanwan]

Basically.

In this case we also have the foxes, right?

[ Hmm... ]

Although, I'm not sure who could be a 'fox'... It's a stab in the dark right now.

[meatery]

What about that Stocking girl? [Gi-ne will remember her name purely because of the stockings on the table.]

She's good at yelling at people and getting them organised. Is that a threat? Ah, Hinata mentioned Matt and Shijima too.

[unrulyprincess]

... I suppose the Rainsford would also consider shielding one of them...?

[Also, she likes all of these people, why :'(]

Then we must choose the one who is least likely to be chosen to be protected.

[meatery]

So... The least dangerous of the dangerous people?
