I'd prefer Archer. But I'm also morbidly curious if Araris goes kaboom, and doesn't seem like anyone really wants to bite. Plus as much as Archer'd be the one to pull off something here... not sure dwelling on it is reasonable and/or helpful.

I'm fine with Coco or Stick. Coco preferred for now. 

Posted

I think I'm going to switch from coco to stickCoco's been unopposed for a bit and I feel like something's off with Stick's tunneling. Mainly I just want to see what happens if an alternate option presents itself.

Kieran nodded at Ap, that made sense. He pulled off his backpack, digging inside. “I think I have a rope, I’m not sure if it’s long enough though”

He kept digging, eventually resorting to dumping the entire backpack out. He started putting everything back in, before hitting his face with his hand, “I am being an absolute Idiot right now” 

He pulled the rope off the backpack, it had been attached to the side. “Alright, so I have some rope, but I’m not sure if it’s long enough, or how we’ll get it secured on the other side”

Coliver had made her decision, even if she wasn't entirely sure of its consequences. She could have joined them, waited for... for whatever the fairy had in store. But she hadn't. She hadn't trusted it. She'd tried to find the person in charge, Commander Viscen

But Viscen was dead.

Marton was dead.

Ap was almost certainly dead.

And Makazi, Vale, everyone she found, everyone who didn't trust... couldn't remember.

That didn't make sense, with what Thistle had mentioned about how whatever-Ap-could-do worked. Unless Makazi had also died? Or had she just avoided the conflict enough to not hear the song? But Not-Marton also remembered, or seemingly had some reaction to her remembering.

"So, I'm with a group of mostly-refugees, without anyone who's really a fighter, and I have no idea where it is or what to do next," she said.

Vale stared blankly at her. She'd gotten some medical training relevant to their current situation, but mostly Vale was busy making sure the children avoided frostbite. Which was noble, Coliver supposed. Aside from the whole time-loop-murder scenarios.

"Coliver, why do you need to do anything? You got everyone out of the city. That was heroic - and stupid - enough," she said, returning to her kit. "Don't get yourself killed."

"I don't think it is enough," Coliver said. "Like I said, this is... big." She hadn't told them what had happened from what she'd gathered from the rest. How she'd died once and nearly died again.

Don't get yourself killed.

The worst that happens is you'll die, but you've come back from that.

You'll survive.

She'd regained her memories even without Ap. Maybe because she'd been dead. Maybe some other way. But maybe that gave her an advantage. She didn't need to be where Ap was, at least not right now. Coliver got up. She needed to get to... the temple, right? There was a group heading there soon. A group, if she was right, that had some of the people that had killed her. And if only she could remember, then maybe they wouldn't recognize her...

Of course, maybe she was wrong. Maybe she needed Ap. But in that case, they were all probably in trouble from those earthquakes.

Besides, forgetting the feeling of a knife in her heart wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.

Edit: Coco, you joined third which is what made it into a train, just because people voted after you does not mean you did not do that. Three people is a lot in a 16 player game. As for TJ, yes, in your post voting him, you don’t give any reasons for him being Elim

Yes, I did make it a train. But what I’m saying is that I didn’t join super late which is what it seemed like you were implying. Also. 3/16 is a lot? That’s less than a quarter. I don’t know what math you’re doing there, but that just doesn’t make sense.

Nope I didn’t give reasons for TJ potentially being elim in the post where I voted him. It was 5 mins before rollover and I just wanted to get it out. I explained why I thought he might be elim in earlier posts and explained more fully why I voted him after rollover there as well.

It’s pretty clear to me that nothing I say right now is going to make you less suspicious of me. That’s fine, I understand. I would rather not get voted right now (for mask reasons) but I get that y’all feel very strongly about me, so it is what it is.

Honors Ghost/Stick - Seemed to actually be inactive rather than just faking it since they needed to get Stick in to pinch hit. Stick seems to be participating in discussion fairly productively and bringing up some good points. There was a train starting on them about halfway through D1 but I don’t remember anyone fighting particularly hard against it or really anything that seemed like a counter train, although the votes were a bit of a mess the whole time, so I may have just missed something. I had a thought at one point that maybe HG was elim and realized they weren’t active enough to do well, so decided to just call in a pinch hitter and be done, but Stick’s posts since then have changed my mind on that front. I also targeted them with Bremen N2 last loop (for that reason) but that didn’t do anything. Village read.

 

 

@coco.pudding these are both from this loop, from D1 and D2 - both seem like pretty solid v reads to me so wdym by u never were able to get a good read on me? could u elaborate on what posts of mine from after D2 'confused' u?

No, you’re right. I have been v reading you. But honestly a) your last few posts have been kinda weird, I don’t love how you were going really hard at Mistfallen and v reading me and then kind of as soon as I voted you decided I’m sus. So that’s a bit weird. And then b) I don’t know who else to vote here. The main two I’ve been sussing are going boom tonight so we’re not voting them. There are three confirmed villagers. There are two people who are inactive today so I don’t really want to vote them (although I still think it’s weird Hael isn’t here). That leaves you, Mistfallen, Doc, Burnt. And out of those you’re the one I think has been acting the weirdest.

I will note also that Daylight Savings is tomorrow for the US (and whoever else has Daylight Savings)

Bad time to be wrong. I think Coco wins the tiebreaker 

Coco 3: Wahr, MF, Ash
Stick 3: Coco, Doc, Araris
MF 1: Stick
TS 1: Archer

Care to intervene, Burnt?

I genuinely dont know here. Ngl they feel about the same to me. Theyre both in the category of i'm happy for one to go. Coco has the rupee benefit.  Coco i think could reach silver, stick could not. It would be good to have silvers in play, noting that even if an evil gets it, a villager could clown mask it off them potentially. We dont have any rich confirmed villagers do we? Cause if we have confirmeds who could at some point afford to steal masks, i think thats absolutely what should happen. i guess theres also a  hope that if coco is a rich villager like myself, one of us is prolly more likely to be nkéd - going to be raising a brow if a richy doesnt die tbh

Currently stick dies. Tbh i think i'm okay with that. Ngl theres an element of, one hand feel bad exeing stick with everything going on, but other hand, if we test her now, if things get worse for them, at least we've exed while able to get responses. Coco we can more actively interrogate. And if we don't want them to be able to rupee, they can be D1 potentially.

So no, i'm not going to intervene, but i will solidify Stick

What a nice vote count. It'd be a shame if something happened to it...

Hmmm, I will say both trains were building for a while, but not sure if it was an attempt to save Coco or not

Wayward Few

Spoiler

The circle of stones was exactly where she'd seen Medigoron find it.

Ap put on the Goron Mask, found her footing, then jumped and dropped.

The ground pound sent a shockwave through the snowpack and the trapdoor gave, a heavy stone slab hinging downward on a counterweight mechanism into the dark below. She switched to Deku form before she fell through, the wind blessing spreading her descent, and drifted down into the room.

It was large. Larger than she'd expected — a wide, mined-out cavern with rough stone walls and a ceiling high enough to lose in shadow. Wooden crates were scattered everywhere, most of them open and empty. A workbench along the far side had tools still on it, notes pinned above it, a lantern still burning low. The smell of old gunpowder was thick in the air.

Nobody here. They'd cleared out and recently, judging by the emptiness and the messiness.

She landed and immediately saw the charges — arranged directly beneath the trapdoor, packed in a ring, the kind of welcome mat you left for uninvited guests. She looked at the spacing and the quantities and made a fast decision.

She was not going to disarm these. She was going to get behind the stone pillar in the far corner and have someone drop a rock down the hole.

"Don't come down yet!" she called up, her voice carrying the Deku harmonics through the shaft. "I need the biggest rock that'll fit through the hole — drop it on my signal!" She moved to the pillar and pressed herself behind it, hands over her ears. "Now!"

Above, the group looked at each other.

Amora was already scanning around her for the best candidate. Thistle was peering down into the dark with an expression that said she had several concerns and no time to voice them. Coliver had her arms crossed, watching the trapdoor, her other friends in tow. Kieran was watching the road behind them.

"There," Amora said, locating the largest stone that could fit. She got her hands under it and hefted it.

Kieran said, "Wait."

Down the road, the way they'd come, something went up.

The explosion was large enough to throw black smoke above the canyon walls, and for a moment the light behind it was the wrong color — not orange but white, the particular white of a blast that had caught something volatile. Then a second detonation, closer, and through the rolling smoke they could see shapes: Clock Wards, silhouettes against the white and black, some moving and some not, the vanguard of Sakon's column walking directly into the BSSJ's welcome.

Cindra looked at Amora. Amora struggled with the rock.

"Now," Kieran said.

Amora dropped it.

The rock fell for longer than expected, the shaft deeper than it looked, and then it hit, and the sound that came up was not one explosion but several in rapid sequence, each one feeding the next, the charges going off in a chain that lasted a full forty seconds and sent a pulse of heat and pressure up through the trapdoor that everyone felt on their faces.

The ground moved.

At first it felt like an aftershock from the detonation below. Then it kept moving, and kept moving, escalating from a tremor into a sustained roll that cracked the ice at the road's edge and sent loose stones skittering off the cliff in both directions, and it was clearly not the explosion.

Thistle grabbed the nearest solid surface. Cindra dropped to one knee. The earthquake had a quality this time that the previous ones hadn't — not a countdown anymore but an arrival, the mountain having decided that enough counting had occurred.

Then Snowhead Temple went up.

The first explosion came from somewhere inside the upper structure, visible as a flash through the vents and windows before the sound reached them. Then a second, and a third, and then they stopped being individual events and became something continuous — a sustained detonation that moved through the temple from its foundations upward, each charge going off in sequence and taking a section of wall with it. The colors were wrong for demolition and right for something deliberate: green, gold, violet, the fireworks patterns of a people who had decided that if they were going to blow something up, it would look like a celebration.

The temple came apart in stages. The outer walls first, shedding stone that fell away in slabs and tumbled down the mountain in slow, massive arcs. Then the interior structures, visible for a moment before they too went. The towers last, tilting and separating and descending into the smoke below, and then there was no more temple, only a ragged outline against the sky where something that had stood for centuries had been standing thirty seconds ago.

The earthquake was still going.

Behind them, the road gave a sound like a scream and went silent, and when Thistle looked back she saw the middle section — three road segments, two of the gaps they'd so carefully crossed — simply gone, fallen away into the canyon below in one continuous slide of ice and snow that took twenty seconds to finish and left nothing.

Forward, the smoke from the temple was too thick to see through. Backward, no road. Below, the shaft.

Cindra was already at the trapdoor, looking down. "Ap!"

The smoke from below took a moment to clear enough for sound.

"It's stable!" Ap's voice came up, ragged but present. "Earthquake-proof — they built it into bedrock. But there's a lot of fire now." A pause. "I need water. A lot of it! Start pushing snow!"

They pushed snow.

And ice — blocks of it, chunks pried from the cliff face, packed in and dropped through the shaft in a continuous stream while the earthquake rolled underneath them and the smoke from the temple drifted across the canyon in heavy grey sheets. Colliver found a crack in the road that was weeping meltwater and her friends helped redirect it toward the opening. Amora worked without stopping, methodical and fast.

Below, they could hear the hiss of fire meeting water, and occasionally Ap's voice directing when they should stop to let the flames settle and start again, and underneath both of those sounds the steady push of wind moving through the underground chamber, the air shifting in the way it shifted when something was using it deliberately.

"It's clear enough," Ap called, after a time that felt longer than it probably was. "Come down. One at a time, slow — I'll cushion the landing."

Thistle went first, which surprised everyone including Thistle.

She came down in the dark, the shaft walls moving past, and then the wind caught her — gentle, specific, hands-under-the-arms gentle — and set her down on wet, ashen stone beside a Deku Scrub who was considerably shorter than she'd gotten used to thinking of her.

The others followed, one by one, the wind catching each of them, the fire reduced now to scattered embers at the room's edges, the headquarters of the Bombers' Secret Society of Justice a wet and smoking ruin around them.

When Kieran landed last, Ap was already pointing.

A tunnel opened in the far wall, angling down and back, the direction of Mountain Village. Small lights lined its walls at intervals — not lanterns but something mechanical, the dark red light ominous like blood — and from deep within came a faint moving current of air.

It was the only way left.

"I don't know if there's more bombs down here," Ap said, looking at the lone tunnel, then at the group. "Either way, there's only one way for us to go. Let's hurry."

She swapped to Goron form and rolled off in case she needed to absorb the brunt of any more booby traps. The lights on the walls blinked as she passed them, responding to something but fortunately not exploding, and behind her the others cautiously followed into the deep-red dark.

 


I am going to post this now and finish writing the second scene.

You can RP this segment if you wish before I get us to the actual "boss fight."

um alright

Mumbo was slightly confused. Working as a dishwasher was not a rewarding job, but it was simple. This intrigue . . . it was confusing.

Same deal as last loop, an info we say now can wait till D3A. Otherwise we’ll give the Elims help with their NK.

Kieran followed Ap through the tunnel. He was worried after the temple collapsed, everything had been close. Luckily they seemed to have gotten out of that.

“Alright, I’m worried those… people…. will show up again and steal the mask”

He rubbed his face, “It seems we’ve lost most of the people left as well. They didn’t make it through the trapdoor, I hope their okay…” 

It wasn’t looking good, but Kieran knew he’d have to try his best to make sure Ap got that mask, no matter what.

Kieran knew it’d be risky, but he knew they could do this. “We can get this one. Just… be careful, I want to make sure this turns out better than last time”
