i asked because your train of thought here is like... i get it as something you would think knowing how you play but the timing of it seemed off?

like it’s very implicative of one very specific process that like... i don’t think ascribing to someone when they say concern from the deadline is fair. maybe i’m worrying too much about it but it feels like... you’re setting him up despite what he answers?

this is a lot of words to say i don’t get the timing of 349 despite talking to catboi

as town you'd have to believe that costello was more likely to hit than to be mafia for it to be reasonable to 'don't forget to take your shot'

and there wasn't enough evidence that ydrasse believed this or didn't for me to reach a conclusion

so i asked

I do not not understand his analysis of my slot but since time is running short, my best pick for a shot in the face atm is flea.

And i'm sad because i actually liked their Isaac competence
I flaked out of TM2020 wtf

so i asked
I think this is going a bit advanced into Ydrasse strategically not reminding me if she thinks I'm scum, which I don't really think it's most people's first instinct is to try and figure out how to capitalize on a mechanic that I should be taking advantage of regardless of alignment in the event I happen to be scum?

the general perception that your push on farkran is town indicative because farkran was vocally townread before that
i guess this is poorly worded, i do not mean the general perception but more, the fact that there were multiple people putting this forward, including farkran
I get it but I wish that people weren’t so hard up on that read? Like, why do confident Farkran is town?
Also what’s with the random line breaks

Gamma did you really have to make your first good (in an AI sense) post of the game an hour before deadline?

Why must you do this to me?

Ydrasse, your response? This is the second thing I’ve noticed of this type from you
what? i’m saying i don’t think she’s done anything especially cautious that’s worth pointing out so far wrt the early wagon as i thought that’s what hectic was basing off of
In post 343, Ydrasse wrote:what second thing have you noticed and have you pointed it out before someone prodded you on me?
But like
Hectic said she wasn’t being cautious
It looks like you ended up agreeing with him as such

And you’ve had confusing takes on Flea (which looks paranoia-driven) and madeline (which seems like you started disagreeing with hectic on some level but reached the exact conclusion he did)

i am not currently confident but farkran's play has seemed similar enough to his play in the game we previously played together to me and the posted you said was not genuine to you seemed fine to me

i wouldn't call them ~random~

simply stylistic

Day 1 - Conclusion




Isaac had to stop and catch his breath before entering the ominous door that marked the end of their terrifying journey. He hoped.

Magdalene had gotten very quiet. Her cheer that had seemed so unshakeable before had given way to something fragile. When he looked back at her, she smiled thinly, and it felt like cheap consolation when she was the one that had gotten them this far.

"This is the best I can do. You're the one who has to fight."
She sounded resigned, but Isaac could swear there was relief in her tone as well. Her beautiful curls hung limply on her face, and there was a sheen of sweat that cast her in a sickly light. He'd noticed she'd had trouble keeping up with him, but she hadn't complained and Isaac thought he'd done his best to account for her. It was better than being alone.

But why come all the way here if she was just going to abandon him in the end?
Her sad smile was no answer, nor was the almost comical thumbs up she offered Isaac as some kind of paltry encouragement.

ISAAC VS. GEMINI


Contusion and Suture were the best of friends. And brothers, to boot! They went everywhere together, and it didn't matter that neither of them could leave the company of the other, for who would want to? Suture told the best jokes, and Contusion had the best laugh, and he always did his part, even when his twins jokes were only a
little
funny instead of absolutely uproarious as they most often were. And sometimes Suture thought his brother patronized him too much, but how could he blame his twin for that? That was how Geminis were.
Suture couldn't relate. After all, he was a Capricorn.

They didn't need anyone else. Certainly not a third brother. You know what they say, right? Two's company, but three's a crowd.

So when another brother did show up, Contusion and Suture were in total agreement on what to do about it.

It was an easier fight than they'd expected.

Day 2 - The Caves




Isaac's breath came in great gasps as he was forcefully dragged back to consciousness. His vision was blurry, and his entire body ached. Moving brought out a groan, and attracted the attention of the two girls nearby.

Magdalene, who had just excitedly filled in a row in her 47th tic-tac-toe game with a dour-looking kid who sat beside her, gasped in delight when she heard Isaac wake.

"Eve, look! He's finally up. Guess you got lucky this time, I won't count this game."
Considering she had just won, Magdalene considered this to be quite generous of her.

Eve, who seemed to be the black-haired girl with a strange, feathered accessory in her hair, merely shrugged. She had been purposely letting the other win every single game, out of protest for being forced to play something as pointless as tic-tac-toe. Magdalene had not noticed.

It looked like they were in an unfamiliar, tiny room. The walls, sparsely lit with an ambient light he couldn't immediately spot the source of, were formed of textured black stone, embedded with... skulls. So many skulls. The floor was also embedded with skulls.
Isaac stopped examining the room.

Asking what had happened to him was the first step, but he was beaten to the question by Eve.
"It's that collar. It was your cat's, right?"
She didn't sound curious, asking the question with as much enthusiasm as she'd given Magdalene's declaration, which was none.

Isaac looked down. Clutched in his hand was a small, dirty collar. It had been pink at some point, but even with the fading and dirt that clung to it, he recognized the heart-shaped tag.
The letters had long since rubbed away, but if he squinted in the gloom he could just make out a P and a Y. At least, Isaac thought so.

This had belonged to Guppy. Isaac remembered clutching it tightly in his fist. His father had tried to coax him into letting it go, that it was dirty and he would wash it and give it back, just the same. Isaac hadn't listened, and he was grateful for it now.

"The things you love will protect you, Isaac," Eve added after several moments of silence. Surprisingly, Magdalene was quiet, and only nodded her agreement with a careful smile.

And then the wall behind Isaac exploded. The loud bang had both girls covering their heads, but they were safe at their position across the room. As the shaking subsided, a tiny collar, now torn into pieces, gently fell to the ground.

From behind the large hole that the explosion had created, which was still smoking and dropping pieces of stone and splintered bone, came an empty-eyed skeleton. He stood beside the radiating circle of ash that marked where the bomb he'd placed had been.

To the girls, he offered a salute. It had taken him a while, but he'd finally found the room they'd been trapped in!
Maybe he'd taken a little too long. They both looked very upset with him.
