the general - night three.

[foxhounds]

THE GENERAL night three 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 8/18 by 5PM EST

[ Oh, HOLD UP. ]

If you're choosing him then I'm going. That's final.

[gravesite]

[ CLAPS EXCITEDLY!! He was hoping Hijikata would come with. ]

Wah, I'm so happy! I'll cut up your sword beautifully, just watch.

[meatery]

Again? [gdit are they going to end up going back and forth?] Are you sure? Do you two have something against this guy?

[gravesite]

Oh! Horikawa Kunihiro is also Hijikata's actual blade.

[meatery]

Oh, right, he's one of those guys... I guess that makes sense.

[L-looks at the sword at Hijitaka's side.] How does that even work... He's going to stab himself...

[gravesite]

From the swords' private conversations at night— [ which Tsurumaru doxxes without a moment's hesitation. ] —Horikawa actually... broke the tip of his own blade. It was during the first night, where the swords were testing out their human bodies.

So he'll be even easier to kill than the rest of them.

Ah, don't worry! It'll work out fine. It's a bit paradoxical, but it'll be fine.

[meatery]

Huh. So that's what that was about. Have you guys been meeting up every night?

Anyway, be careful. Make sure your friends won't be able to tell it was you two if you can, okay?

[She doesn't want them to get caught especially since that'll leave her as the most willing killer in the mafia.]

[gravesite]

Yeeep! The most useful thing has been Urashima doting over Clarine, though.

[ A nod. ] I will. I don't have a unique fighting style, anyway, so they won't be able to tell by the work I leave behind.

[meatery]

Aww! That's cute, does he really have a crush? Ne, ne, tell me!

[So much more interesting than murder! Anyway, Tsuru clearly has that covered.]

[gravesite]

It sure sounds like he does! I mean, last night, he started blabbing something about how he had to go meet up with Clarine. I told her too, and she seemed pretty embarrassed.

[ Right! Island gossip is an absolute priority... ]

And imagine how devastated he's going to be, if he ever finds out about her.

[meatery]

Ah? So he thinks meeting her is important... Good, good, he's right.

[Murderdaughter is a catch and should be valued as one.]

Well, in her case that probably won't be until near the end. [No one'll suspect Clarine!] And by then he'll know it was for his own good. She'll be his knight in shining armour!

[gravesite]

From the way he talks about it, it's that he worries about leaving her alone in the jungle, unprotected. Nooooow, for those of us who know that she's with us, that's not exactly a necessary concern for Urashima's poor heart.

[ She's deceiving with that cute, tsundere attitude, honestly... It'll let her go for the kill, just watch! ]

Right! It'll shatter his heart into a thousand little pieces, but they'll make up again! ...Hopefully. He's a forgiving boy, I'd say.

[meatery]

Well, a little bit of fighting is good for a partnership. If you can make up afterwards, it's proof that your bond is a strong one!

Ah, young romance is so cute... [Though Urashima is way older than her.]

[unrulyprincess]

[SCREECHES INWARDLY]

W-wha-- What are you talking about?!

[meatery]

Ne, ne, do you like him too? Ah, if you don't it's okay. Do you want me to teach you how to break someone's wrist in one move? It's really useful.

[Don't let cute guys make you feel uncomfortable, Clarine!]

[unrulyprincess]

[literally screaming inwardly off in the corner]

[hijiwanwan]

[ Sorry Clarine.

He's laughing at you. Ah yes... young love... So beautiful.

:^) ]

[hijiwanwan]

[ Looks at Tsurumaru and gives him a 'watch your mouth' glare. ]

Not exactly. I just want to be there, that's all. [ He wouldn't say Horikawa is exactly important to him... Since he just met the sword, but... You know! It's his sword! Er... No, it was still all weird to him, he can't really pinpoint his feelings. It's his turn to babysit. ]

[meatery]

No, no, I get it. I'd... probably feel the same way in your position?

[SHE THINKS??? She gets feeling possessive, at least. But she also remembers a certain conversation with Orion on day two.]

Um, but... behave, okay? You know what I mean.

[hijiwanwan]

[ Waves hand dismissively. ] Fine, fine.

But, in any case. I don't hold back- if it's for the Shinsengumi that is. [ He'll even kill people he loves if it's for the Shinsengumi. He's only 'saving' people on this island for them. So, that's that. If Horikawa has to go... Well, so be it. ]

[meatery]

I mean it! Just kill him quickly, no playing around! Not holding back is fine, but Orion told me about you-know-what!

[And then said in a more hushed tone so the kids won't overhear:] If you make a scene that'll upset Hinata and Clarine, don't think you'll get off easy from me.

[hijiwanwan]

Oh, did he?

[ SMIRK... ] That's no fun.

[ Rubs the back of his head, and sighs. ] You need to stop babying those kids. It's not like we can cover their eyes from this every single night. [ What are you Gi-ne, his mom??? ]

[meatery]

So long as we're here, there's no need for them to see that stuff.

[No, she's his murderwife?? Maybe?? They can do all the murdering for their murderbabies take responsibility, father]

I'm not saying make it pretty just... Don't make a scene.

[hijiwanwan]

[ :///

He's a vice-commander not a dad. But OKAY!!! ]

Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. If anything I'm going to keep an eye on him. [ Tsurumaru, he means. ]

[meatery]

Well, that's important too.

[Because dear, sweet, sinnabun Tsurumaru must be protected!]

It sounds like those guys all stick together at night, so watch out for any of their friends that might be hanging around. [You might have to fight more than Horikawa.]
