The Unknown Character he/him Posted March 19 Posted March 19 2 hours ago, Wonko the Sane said: Yeah, even before D1-C was over, that was brought up; we killed Coco because we KNEW she could afford Stone, but we acknowledged that if a different Elim had bought Scents, then Burnt could also afford Stone. Wait, why can't Mist be elim? I agree it's really unlikely, given the surrender, but I'm not aware of any evidence hard-clearing him. Gah! We're going too fast for Zymni's narrative to resolve satisfyingly. I keep having to accelerate my timetable. XD Now Thistle's dead, and I don't even have the space for Zymni to react to it. Well, I wouldn't say that; Mist did hypothesize a pretty plausible story where Hael is convinced that he's the next exe anyway and is going to lose the Loop, so he busses Stick in order to deepwolf and keep himself from being outed when Drake comes back. That said, there's a LOT of e!Doc evidence, most notably to me the fact that it's pretty confirmed at this point that he had Keaton, and thus lied about his scan. (Unless the team is Burnt/Hael/Mist/Stick, with Mist having Keaton, but that's kind of hard to countenance). What is your opinion, then, on the disposition of the Keaton mask? Do you believe that Mist had it? And if so, why did Burnt/Hael/Mist/Stick surrender the game when it was literally already won? Doc. I really can't plausibly see an e!Hael world at this point. Functionally cleared, because I see no world where a team with Mist doesn't have Mist put the kill in and win the game I really did not understand the Twinstorm exe back in the day, but I'm trusting smarter minds on this one. If we mess up, so be it Twinstorm

DrakeMarshall he/him Posted March 19 Posted March 19 Well, who is it if it’s not TwinStorm, is the question I think we still have the 3 elims in <Burnt, Doc, Mistfallen, Hael, Coco, TwinStorm> suspect pool Burnt and Doc are both flipped as evil, Hael and Mistfallen were both victims of faked evil scans by the former two from my pov Coco is the only real possibility left, and I think she’s probably village

Amanuensis he/him Posted March 19 Author Posted March 19 (7/10) Twin: Wahr, Archer, coco, Drake, Mist, TUM, TJ (1/10) coco: Twin,
Araris Valerian he/him Posted March 19 Posted March 19 It's either Twinstorm or coco, but I'm fine with the former.
DrakeMarshall he/him Posted March 19 Posted March 19 Coco you’d tell us if you were evil wouldn’t you
Ashbringer he/him Posted March 19 Posted March 19 Coliver watched from the ground. No one seemed to bother her. They knew she'd been killed by the Dreamers too many times to be one. But that they'd been there... all this time... all she could do was watch. Watch as Rashe himself cut Cindra down for the crime of having killed him the loop before. Watched Mee grabbed and pummeled. Watched Thistle - Thistle - create a bouquet of farewells and leave the room, and Amora drag her limp body back in tears. Watched now, as the screaming surrounded Mumbo. It wasn't screaming, per se. The Happy Mask Salesman had set an example. It was methodical, even by some means polite. Not much emotion reached the mouths of the participants, though some had tears running down their cheeks. Others had eyes of stone. The killers. Rashe. Kieran, perhaps. The Mask Salesman, no longer pretending to keep the first third of his namesake. If Mumbo died, it'd be over. No, it was already over. That was the point, right? That they'd won? Coliver wondered who they were, that had won. And suddenly Rashe wasn't standing with the others, hand on his sword. He'd moved, just as fast as that other time. Now he was crouched beside her, giving a smile. Not one of kindness, but one of understanding... or if Coliver tilted her head, one of having gotten away with something he should not have. "Hey. Hey, Coliver. Look what I found," he said, not bothering to whisper. In his hands was a Mask with the face of a Fairy. 1
Wahrheitswächter He/Him Posted March 19 Posted March 19 Two more Votes to kill Twin and put an End to this Game (Yes I am at the point where I want it to be over, it is clear how this will end, its just a waiting Game now)
Amanuensis he/him Posted March 19 Author Posted March 19 While I will release the final player list when the last two votes go through, I probably won't post the Aftermath + Write Up until Friday night, just so y'all know 1
Ashbringer he/him Posted March 19 Posted March 19 So you're saying I don't need to filibuster my vote in order to fit more RP in
TwinStorm He/Him Posted March 19 Posted March 19 feel free to execute me, village loses reason why: trust me bro lwk not invested in this game tho

Ashbringer he/him Posted March 19 Posted March 19 It had been a long time since Rashe had well and truly stolen something. Well, he hadn't exactly stolen it. He'd paid for the Great Fairy Mask, leaving his blood-earned Rupees behind in the vault the Happy Mask Salesman had hidden. The Mask Salesman didn't look exactly Happy with this bargain, but Rashe supposed that this would be the first time he'd heard about it. But Coliver. She looked at him, trying to process what a human or Zora mind should not. "How did you... why did you... you..." Rashe looked down at the Mask. It was such a simple thing, really. Where he came from Masks had symbolic value, but not particularly powers. But the power to bring back the dead... that was a power that was hard to come by. In fact, he'd only truly held it once.... Once. Long ago, before his strife. So, so long ago. He could use it. It wouldn't fix things, but it would be one step in the staircase that he knew had an ending somewhere in that great infinity. Or he could bring Cindra back, the one he'd killed. Thistle, the one who'd died. Maybe, perhaps, Majora... though why he'd make that choice he'd have to find out when it happened. That was the problem with bad choices. They usually seemed like a good idea at the time. Then an idea came to him. This was his first time around, he'd already gotten what he'd come to find... and he'd found someone who knew a bit more about him than he thought he'd tell in a very long time. "Coliver. I want to show you something. Something else," he whispered, really whispered, this time. A whisper that only Coliver could hear. A whisper that carried the sound of ringing tin, and the faintest music from Ap's ocarina, and the echo of the eye. "What?" Coliver said, clearly beyond the point of... caring. Well, maybe this would change that. "What it looks like to lose," Rashe said simply. And then, for a moment, they were on another world. Spoiler Coliver blinked as the moon fell to Termina. That was it. They'd lost. The Skull Kid had gotten Gyorg's Mask... she didn't know what that meant. But Ap couldn't sing. The moon was falling. It was... over. Coliver couldn't do anything but shake. She'd watched Rashe die to a poison dart... she'd watched them die. Thistle. Cindra. Ap. Link. It wasn't like she could do anything about it, she wasn't ready like she was with the beast in the Goron racetrack. But she could have done something. Surely there was something? Some way to win? But she could only cry. It took a long time, much longer than the moment should have been, but eventually Coliver rubbed her eyes, sniffled, and wondered why she wasn't burning. Fire surrounded her. But it was still, frozen, cold despite its rage. And she wasn't alone. A figure, Zora but translucent, with a skeleton gleaming within. It should have terrified her. But it didn't. "It's a moment in time. A pause. A bubble. It can't go on indefinitely, but I can make them be pretty dang strong," AraRaash said. "Also, sorry for messing with how you've felt. I've stopped, mostly, but now you've been... well. The moment doesn't work if you run screaming into the inferno." Some part of Coliver was trying to process what that meant, the part that thought running screaming into an inferno would be a natural reaction to the appearance of an apparition like this. But that part of Coliver was small, now. "I wanted to apologize. I... it's been a long time since anyone's had any possibility of understanding. What I am. What I've done. When the loop began, I thought maybe you could. But I should have known it wouldn't last. That I shouldn't have hoped." "Hope is okay," Coliver said. "It's just... it's gone now, isn't it?" "... Yeah. For you, at least." AraRaash said. "But maybe not for everyone." Coliver stood up. The fear was coming back, whatever Rashe had done to her emotions fading into how bleak reality was. But hope? Even for Ap? Someone? "This world has time work differently than most. I can get away with this. I think. Faleast might be mad at me, but hey, when isn't he," AraRaash said with a smile. "I can send you back. Again." Coliver's eyes widened. "And I can fix things! I can-" "NO!" AraRaash suddenly yelled, and Coliver nearly went back to the advice of her inner self and jumped into the unmoving flame. "No. That's... in this world, that's set. Written. But something isn't. What happened to Marton, Coliver?" "He... he fell," Coliver said. An implication rose up in the depths of her heart. Coliver pushed it down, but it rose. "Or he... he..." "I don't know," AraRaash said, smile gone. "But if you know... I can send you back, Coliver. You can save him. Have him, and Makazi, have them run from Termina as fast as they can. They can survive. But... but then you have to come to Clock Town. You have to do it again, and lose again. Otherwise... Time doesn't like when people break it." Coliver looked at Rashe's eyes, and could see that he meant that. "I have to die? Twice? Again?" "Three times," Rashe said. "I won't be there. I'll be somewhere else, probably, but that poison dart was meant for you. You need to take it." Coliver's heart stopped rising. "You don't have to," AraRaash said. "You could say no. Then this moment ends and fire takes its place. Or you could go through everything, again, just once, and you could save them. They would live. And through them you would, too." Coliver didn't know how long she waited, but the Spirit's deal was there. And this time, she knew what she would say. Then the moment passed, as all moments do. Coliver said nothing, at first. Rashe did the same. "... what did I say?" she finally asked. "I don't know," Rashe said, truthfully. "That's my curse. The curse of the multiverse, the curse of decisions... you chose to die, to save them. You chose to let the world stay as it was, to end your story. You refused all choices and ran for the fire. That one's probably going to happen a lot, to be honest." Coliver was shaking. "I... I... I don't understand." "That's the nice thing about choices," Rashe said, standing, placing the Mask above his head. "You don't need to understand. You just have to make one. I'll see you, Coliver." Rashe activated the Great Fairy Mask. Power flowed into him... into the him who was AraRaash... and into his body... And he smiled. 2
