( When Susan and Spain arrive at his room, Spain will stop just barely outside his room and ask, )

Would you close the door, please?

If I were the Mastermind, I'd have given myself a nice costume.

[Activating death glare.]

What do you mean? We already know they're occasionally personalized. ...Or do you mean that someone's incentives are less compelling than the rest?

((I am a huge jerk but I think I also need a private conversation with Spain for this coming week as well aha... I apologize for this!))

Last week, there was a victim for each one of us. ( 20 victims from back home for 20 players. ) That means everyone is playing, even our mastermind.

Perhaps one of them was a stranger; someone the mastermind didn't even know. Or maybe it's the opposite.

If it's the former, the mastermind has nothing to lose with these incentives. They would never have to act and would only have to worry about being scapegoated.

But if it's the latter... Well, that's another set of questions.

((that's cool! just let me know what IC day and i can get that read? :0))

((I think Gundam will need to be involved as well for this; it has to do with the immunity clue we were given today. Let me PM both of you on Plurk so we can work this out! Thanks a lot for being accommodating!))

The clue was that one of the 'players' was given an advantage. That was clear from the beginning. Given that it's impossible to know who's telling the truth about the incentives barring telepathic powers, I don't know if investigation in that direction will be very useful.

...Memories, secrets, regrets, a special item, an important person, a personal nightmare... Can any of that truly be known?

[pasodoble]

I think asking why someone would play the game is important. It might not be helpful now but maybe later...

( His voice trails off some and he goes quiet for a few seconds. )

Ay, this is all too serious for me; I think I'll take a nap.

( Spain it's the morning please. )

...

Given that the ropes aren't working, I have a new suggestion. Stay within sight of two people at all times. I'll post an 'escort list' instead. If you vanish, we'll assume you're off murdering someone.

( Oh.

He tries to not smile but he's always been a relatively reactive person. There's a crooked smile and a surprised look in his eye, )

Y-yes, of course-- thank you.

[inthebones]

It's practicality. We're running out of things to bind you with, and it amounts to the same thing.

This has no bearing on how I feel about you.

[Susan does not smile as she nods and turns away.]

Sonia and May are with you today, I think. I'll let them know.
