Experiment 10 - Beta

[testingphase]

[ The elevators do not take you up to your living area. Rather, they take you DOWN, to a small room with three white walls, and one that is a thick, translucent plastic. There appears to be a chute of some sort behind the plastic wall. ]

Now, in order to determine how well you know each other, we're going to see which teams are the most popular. The rules are simple:

* At the end of the test, each team will suffer an attack. Each attack will kill about half of everyone present.
* You may choose one team (other than your own) to defend from this attack. A team that is defended will not be harmed.
* If you wish to defend yourself instead of another team, you must choose a team to attack.
* You may not refuse to choose.

Let's see...

He's got the poker face of a model or a secret agent, and since we're being patriotic, congressman. Maybe stay at home dad, since he looks the type.

.. And magician.

「"Blue Steel," huh? Fair enough.」

「Magician's a nice touch. Number of...」

[Snerk]

「Children.」

[icicleiciclebaby]

Oh man.

50, one from every state, or 8 so he can be better than the Brady Bunch, and fine, some normal numbers too. 3, 2, 1.

[thebiggestloser]

[This is HILARIOUS.]

「Speaking of states, I'll need five locations now, if you don't mind~」

[ LOVE US COULSON ]

Washington D.C., Ohio, England, Australia, and Fiji.

Coulson looks like he could do with a tan.

[thebiggestloser]

「So true, so true!」

[Starts doodling a spiral]

「Say when, Icicle-kun!」

[icicleiciclebaby]

When.

[thebiggestloser]

「Okay! And that's...」

[Counts out...]

「14!」

[In a matter of minutes, they have the following:

[icicleiciclebaby]

Hahaha, man it's perfect!

[thebiggestloser]

「The house, number of children and location are extremely ordinary, but the job certainly makes up for it.」

「What would he call himself? Phabulous Phil! Professional Prestidigitator?」

[icicleiciclebaby]

The Fabulous Coulsonini?

[thebiggestloser]

「And his ever-so-lovely assistant, Steve!」

[icicleiciclebaby]

Steve wears the scandalous dress.

[thebiggestloser]

「In red, white and blue, right?」

[icicleiciclebaby]

Of course.

[thebiggestloser]

「He must look amazing in it, if they're successful enough to afford a mansion.」

[icicleiciclebaby]

Getting wolf whistles from everyone in the audience.

[thebiggestloser]

「So even though The Phabulous Phil Coulsonini is the magician, it's Steve who leaves them spellbound!」

「A most perfect partnership, indeed~」

[icicleiciclebaby]

One that leaves them rolling in dough.

[thebiggestloser]

「The best kind, then! Assuming money is the key to happiness.」

[icicleiciclebaby]

Eh, for them, maybe not.

[thebiggestloser]

「Considering that it's them... perhaps they'll have happiness outside of the fiscal realm as well.」

「They are pretty lovey-dovey.」

[icicleiciclebaby]

It's a little sickening.

[thebiggestloser]

「Sickening or not, it'll earn us points from Shipper Core.」

[icicleiciclebaby]

Oh I'm not complaining.
