Experiment 10 - Zeta

[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.

No.

People are going to die. I won't let you be the reason.

[and yes, he totally went to hit Elliot for considering it, looks to Lafiel] I'll do it.

[prideofabh]

You aren't the reason either. She's the reason, regardless of who speaks the words.

[cloak_and_sniper]

Which one of us is putting the vote in, seeing as those two are hell-bent on the other not doing it.

[prideofabh]

I can.

[cloak_and_sniper]

[nods, folding her arms]

Who's going to be 'front-line'? I'll take it that'll be us two again. The AI says we're not going to get weapons, so we're probably just going to be meat-shields.

[prideofabh]

It sounds like it, but I'd rather be front line, unless someone is immune to death.

[cloak_and_sniper]

Have you lost a clone yet?

[prideofabh]

Once, but it was due to a disconnect, not a death. Apparently it was the quickest way to stop us from learning information GLaDOS didn't wish us to know.

[cloak_and_sniper]

You've done well to not die, then.

[prideofabh]

Hardly. I've been lucky, and I haven't provoked her so Zeta wouldn't have to pay for my revival.

[cloak_and_sniper]

[shrugs]

You've still done well, whether that's down to luck or not. I say we link arms and stand tall.

[as an f-u to GLaDOS. not that she'll care, but it's the little things~]

[prideofabh]

I like how you think.

[cloak_and_sniper]

[grins and... plops down on the floor]

A new clone might help me get a decent amount of sleep for once, anyway.

[knighting]

[barely dodges] Leo!

Like hell I'm letting you! [grabs his arm]

[foil]

Grr!

Elliot! Knock it off!

[knighting]

No!

Dammit Leo!

[foil]

[jerks his arm back] Let go of me! I don't want you to be responsible if people die again, okay?!

[knighting]

[jerk]

And why would I let you either!?

[foil]

I'm not going to argue this! [grr!, learned this one from Oz, goes in for a punch with his opposite arm]

[knighting]

[grabs wrist] Leo! [grabs the front of his uniform! okay that pissed him off] What if she kills who says anything. I won't have you dying because of that!

ooc: apparently, i have an icon for anything

[foil]

....

[cloak_and_sniper]

[well, someone has had enough of raised voices. storms over and grabs them both by the collars of their jumpsuits, yanking them apart. anyone for possible whiplash?]

...

[daggers. she's looking between you both with them in her eyes]

[knighting]

[SHUTS UP!]

. . .


[looks down a little embarrassed]

[foil]

...

[yeah, he got that hint, too. sighs, and once he's settled, drops back down next to Elliot, bumping his shoulder in apology]



... We can't get out of this room, can we?

[cloak_and_sniper]

No. We can't. Neither of you are putting the vote in. Either myself of Lafiel will do it.
