If it's happening Thursday night, it's not a task. [ he'll. point it out. ] Not unless you know any way the staff can let people walk around to go... steal shoes and give mints.
[ hm. he looks pensive for a second ]
... Last week, staff said it might be housekeeping, right? Because they don't take care of that and don't know shit about it. What if some of the jobs they don't take care of are like those roles? Back in the Realm, my team had a role that was a bunch of random tasks. Guy got rewarded with items or hints if he finished them.
Oh, right. Extra stuff. [SHE DIDN'T HAVE ROLES IN HER GAME, SHE FORGOT] That's still wild to me. You just had participants doing things! What a concept.
Anyway, if they have a foot fetish I don't want their help. [a beat.] Do you think maybe they can like - this is a crazy guess, but if they're stealing items, maybe it's to see if those items are being used Thursday nights?
Maybe someone thinks Bucky and Brad were the most likely to kill people.
[ so wild! participants eating and fucking each other instead of doing things and spending weeks looking for a pawn. so wild. ]
Why would they steal soda cans and shoes if they wanted to see if they were being used for murder? [ i mean. there's been stupider clues, but. ] I don't know what thing you guys mean in trial that has to do with feet. Didn't Yuri get a... viewing thing?
Yeah, but who says what we get has to be related to the fact some weirdo is stealing a single shoe from a pair and leaving behind consolation prizes? Not sure what sadist [HE LOOKS POINTEDLY at like THE CEILING like UP THE BOSS! NIGHTMAN!] would make us pay fifteen fucking tickets for something after someone already went through all the trouble of giving us the opportunity, though.
Okay, smartass, maybe the soda can was unrelated. Maybe they were thirsty. It'd be nice to know if the shoes matched someone's footprints, that's why I suggested it. [grumbles.] Anyway, I don't know what's up with that.
And if we get the same option tomorrow, I say we all petition for it to be lower than fifteen tickets, because I'm not spending all my shit on that again.
You think he's in the ceiling? [ jason. anyway moving on ] What was the other option anyway? The viewfinder told you what went down, but it was pretty much... what you'd figured out at that point.
[ cloud can't include himself in that. he was not figuring out shit. he had a hole in his head. ]
Shut up. [NO, HE DOESN'T THINK THAT. He's going to give Cloud another hole in the head in a minute.] I agree. In theory, it's not bad... forcing people to use their tickets. It means we can keep people from buying stuff from the shop to help them with murder, but... [A shrug.] Doesn't matter really when people won't give up their last ticket--me included--and it only takes one to get a weapon. We're not even counting the room service.
So yeah. If we can't get it lowered, I'd say don't buy unless we're absolutely desperate. [To Cloud:] It was a party blower. All it said was it made one hell of a sound.
I'm not going to spend my tickets anymore when there are a bunch of stingy buttholes who won't cough up their share to solve a murder. [ok grandma it's time for bed
flops back over on the bed, actually.]
I don't even know what that could do. The party blower, I mean.
Hear what exactly? [This is not to Cloud, but an exasperated demand of the powers that be.] We already get a phone call usually.
If they stay the same, maybe we can try it later if we're between a rock and a hard place. We've done alright so far, but they've been pretty simple. This is way better than our track record on the island, though.

Some kind of extra duty. [Hm.] You think maybe what we've been getting in trial is because they've got a foot fetish? The, uh--item we used last time.
We're going to have to be careful of what people get from tasks going forward, yeah.
