[ You’re praticipating in one of the inane minigames the doll required when the headache starts. The dark cavernous room helps you some, but you still slump against the hard concrete wall you were hiding against with Sou. You can’t really remember the rules of this one, something about pulling a lever while some macrabe automata turns around. You weren’t paying attention, as usual. Little lord Franz Urtica liked keeping to his high horse.
You eye your partner, weighing your options for how to get out of going after the lever next. You surprised yourself with the inexplicable sense of sympathy you had for Sou Hiyori. Not enough to outweigh the show you watched him put on in the trial, but enough you let yourself be paired with him on this game. An idiotic decision, but the rest of the group must have been pleased to pair troublemaker with you instead of Kanna for once. He’s probably not going to split the stars, and serves you right. ]
We may as well give up. [ You don’t speak as quietly as you should, but you roll your eyes and hit Sou with the slightly pained expression that always worked wonders for getting away from your minders.] The timing is too tight on this level, we may as well come back with more athletic partners.
[ I’m not a coward. You think. I’m risk adverse. Dying by vote seemed fin and fine until they went ahead and made it so public and unpleasant. Kai had the right idea when his back was against the wall so I’d like to muddle along until I can find a way out of here that isn’t so awful. ]
You can still go with Keiji, yes? Just make him do this.
