[This was definitely not Yasusada's idea, but hey, he's got experience with raids?? The Shinsengumi have their own phrase and everything. Incredible. (He might say it? Don't let him announce that they're performing a raid, please.)

Actually, though, before he even tries the door, he'll look at both Sanji and Dick. Does he even know Dick's name. Probably not. I hate Yasusada.

ANYWAY]


Lili-kun told me that when you do things like this, it can take your past experiences and manipulate your feelings. So we'll have to be careful about that.

[As if he's not the person here most likely to fall for it, but hey. He'll try.]

[ whose idea was this. we didn't decide this in advance, because dick would've probably come more prepared but i didn't want him to. Either way, here he is now, the third wheel. He's at least talked to Sanji a few times, but he and Yams were ships passing through the night... oops. ]

Right. That's also in line with what Taako and the others experienced-- so long as we keep in mind that most of what we'll see won't be real, we should be fine.

[ seriously who invited him ]
concasse: (smile↠ even if we die)

[personal profile] concasse 2020-06-23 06:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[This is, to my great sadness, probably Sanji's idea and he thought this would a. let Yams blow off some steam, and b. let's face it, Dick is one of the only people here who knows what he's doing, so--]

Alright, noted.

[Sanji also knew this too but damned if he's gonna let a comrade feel useless. Maybe he babies Yasusada too much? Probably. Anyway god Dick, you talk a lot, let's get this show on the road.]

First things first, shitheads. How we opening up the door? I'd say it looks pretty kickable, but I'm open to suggestions.
okitactless: (are you ready?)

[personal profile] okitactless 2020-06-23 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[LOOK it's always good to reiterate, okay!! Everyone has to know the details for a raid to work properly. They've got this. (no)]

I suppose we're not trying to sneak in, then... [Which is probably good because he's dressed in bright blue] We could try it? I can use my shoulder too.

[BREAK IT DOWN]
unpredicktable: (this thing another try baby)

[personal profile] unpredicktable 2020-06-23 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[ dick is not reassured by the fact that both of them immediately go for violence. that's what happens when you're the only one from a stealth team ]

We should probably try sneaking in first. [ to build on yams and sanji both. ] I know how to pick locks, and we don't know if there's anyone in there right now.

[ please ]
concasse: (robin↠ this will lead to bad things)

[personal profile] concasse 2020-06-23 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[Proof that sanji is (slightly) more reasonable than Tamamo:

He gestures at the door instead of rushing it, grinning]


By all means, be my guest.

[Though he might be on a timer because if he thinks the pirate and the sword are gonna stay still for long, well...]
okitactless: (stabby chic)

[personal profile] okitactless 2020-06-23 06:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[Look he's just taking after Okita, okay. And hey, last time Yasusada wasn't allowed to stab for a while he scared everyone by chopping off the head of his own puppet so

Sanji is not incorrect

Also, because he's, shockingly, not always 100% idiot--]


Won't they hear the noise by the lock anyway?

[If someone's inside... but he won't stop Dick from doing his best.]
unpredicktable: (you don't have to babe)

[personal profile] unpredicktable 2020-06-23 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
We're not that loud.

[ well, no, they probably are, but he goes over to try and unlock it. with. a dart he pulls out of his pockets, do not @ him. the good news is, dick is very good at what he does and it does, indeed, take no time for them to hear the telltale click of the door unlocking!

the bad news is when he tries it-- ]


...

It's stuck.

[ THAT WAS A WASTE OF TIME AND HE'S GOING TO GET OUT OF THE WAY TO FACEPALM ]
concasse: (punt↠ silky smooth)

[personal profile] concasse 2020-06-23 06:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[There's a whistle of approval when Sanji also hears that click, about to tell Dick this is the reason he brought his sneaky ass along, but then--]

Ah.

[Well in that case, Sanji

kicks the door

Just sidekicks that fucker the moment Dick is outta range, no warning, and the poor thing snaps open with a crack of noise]


Nah, doesn't look stuck to me.
okitactless: (awakening)

[personal profile] okitactless 2020-06-23 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well fortunately Yasusada did not rush in and fall flat on his face (I say fortunately but I mean tragically), and he's the one with the most obvious weapon here?? So let him go inside first please and thank you. He'll keep his hands on his sword, ready to draw if he has to, and head towards the window.]
unpredicktable: (i am not a child now)

[personal profile] unpredicktable 2020-06-23 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[ well. dick does a little low impressed whistle at the kick, because it was very nice and smooth and he might be a sneaky bastard but he enjoys violence, and he almost follows yams in but. pauses before taking out a purple glowstick from his pocket and snapping it so it turns on.

then he heads in and like, looks to the side of the entrance for ?? a light switch??? ]
concasse: (neutral↠ not sure what to make of that)

[personal profile] concasse 2020-06-23 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[... Honestly he expected this to backfire on them in some way, so Sanji will be the last to enter despite being the Kicky one. Hm.

He's waiting for that potential light switch before he bothers trying out the flashlight he got from [redacted] which is the only reason why Sanji is vaguely prepared. Someone offered him a brain cell.

But he's going to go directly into the middle of the room first, glancing around... any of those unidentifiable objects furniture shaped this further in?]


okitactless: (pomesada)

[personal profile] okitactless 2020-06-23 07:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[Wow I can't believe they're going to get their heads blown off

Anyway, first of all, rude. STOP KNOCKING PEOPLE UNCONSCIOUS he could've hurt himself, and by hurt himself I mean drop his sword!! But he is, naturally, immediately distracted from looking around by the collars, and he reaches up, tugging his scarf away so he can touch his own.]


Eh...?
unpredicktable: (i can't leave you waiting)

[personal profile] unpredicktable 2020-06-23 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[ blow! off! their! heads!

dick doesn't have time to react to much before he's knocked unconscious, which is. a thing that happened for all of them. can he look at his stupid glowstick to figure out how much time passed by how faded it is. probably not, but he will try.

much like yams, his hands immediately go the collar around his neck, searching for any kind of indentation or weakness or even a lock he can pick, because, actually, this isn't his first time in collars ]


Wall rippled before we got knocked out. [ his voice is a bit rough, and it's hard to tell if it's from just waking up or being a little growl-y at. this. ] You guys okay? No injuries?

[ status report is important. he doesn't quite wait for the answer to go directly to the computer terminal because. sometimes.

you are a NERD. ]
concasse: (angry↠ squinty eye of doom)

[personal profile] concasse 2020-06-23 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
["This isn't his first time in collars"

hahaha.

Hahahahaha.

God but Sanji is stressed when he comes to, hands also flying up to his neck. He doesn't bother to try and pull off the collar -- shit is never that simple -- but his expression is rigid and ready to throw down as he slowly picks himself off the floor]


M'fine. C'mon, let's pick shit to look at so we can be done with this.

[Sanji and Dick: not my first rodeo]

Imma check out the bar first.

[Which is where he zooms, and thus finds that ouija board mocking them. Hm, don't like this! And since he does not want to waste time here, Sanji's going to spell out "How do we escape" just on the off-chance that... solves it. YOU DID IT, CHEF]
okitactless: (やめろ)

[personal profile] okitactless 2020-06-23 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[THANKS FOR LEAVING HIM ON THE FLOOR Y'ALL. But no, after fiddling with the collar, he'll get to his feet as well. His grip on his vessel is tight, but as soon as the screen flashes to life and the voice begins speaking, his grip on it goes white-knuckled.

Just because Yasusada was the one to bring it up, it doesn't mean that he's impervious. He'd been braced for mentions, visions, of Okita--he's never made that devotion a secret. So to hear those names instead, especially when he hasn't told anyone about Nagasone... he stands, frozen, all the color draining out of his face.]


Kiyomitsu...?
unpredicktable: (i'm too tired to listen)

[personal profile] unpredicktable 2020-06-23 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[ dick takes a step back from the vote monitor the second the voice tells them exactly what it's for, fists balled at his side. He knows, of course, that this is probably fake-- they'd talked about it earlier, and Wally is-- Wally West is dead and gone and Tim isn't here, but that doesn't make it any easier to look at them on that screen or hear their names.

(They look like his, but then again, so did Jason. So even if they were real-- who exactly would it be that he's condemning?)

He shakes his head and goes for the red box on the floor instead, to see if he can't open it. ]


Everybody stay-- [ he almost says whelmed before he remembers who he's with ] calm. We talked about this-- they're not real. This entire camp has access to our memories.

[ ... but that doesn't mean he's eager to play along and kill, even in a simulation, so: ]

Let's try to find a different solution first before we engage in anything. I've more than had my fair share of playing death games.
concasse: (irritated↠ eyes closed)

[personal profile] concasse 2020-06-23 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
-- Calm down, Yasusada.

[Speaking directly to his fellow castlemate first (who I didn't even realize was on the floor, I'm weeping), once the announcement ends and Sanji has forced himself to breathe a hiss through his teeth.] The castle pulled something like this; this shit isn't real.

[Which is. What Dick said. But team player Sanji seems to have vacated the premises for now. He drops his eyes back to the ouija board with a barely contained scowl]

But if it comes down to it, let's just get this shit out in the open before we're pressed for time: pick Reiju's team. If she's the lead, she won't vote for me.

[And after that little declaration, he'll finally return to surveying the room... before going right back to that board. What does 'Let the game end where I treat two' mean?

It doesn't make sense to leave a riddle if there's no way to solve it, he hopes.]


Lemme know what you guys are looking at so we don't overlap.
okitactless: (uncertainty)

[personal profile] okitactless 2020-06-24 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
[I'M SO SORRY DICK but it's true--Yasusada hears Dick's words, but Sanji's are the ones that reach him more clearly. He drags in a shaky break, nodding--and it's unsteady, but he's... he's trying. He's got a death grip on his sword, but he is.]

Kiyomitsu wouldn't... he wouldn't vote for-- for me.

[So. There's that.

He knows absolutely nothing about technology, so he'll leave all that to them. Instead, he'll head for the second story platform. Is there anything for him to see up here?]
unpredicktable: (wherever your heart may lead you)

[personal profile] unpredicktable 2020-06-24 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
[ it's fine, dick knows he's the third wheel of this party. literally. there's a grimace on his face when sanji mentions it, but-- ]

... Tim and Wally wouldn't go for a vote at all. [ it's said with conviction, despite everything. dick wouldn't, either, but he's not team leader here, and-- he reminds himself-- it's not real. it can't be. he's sort of keeping track of the time, because Someone has to, but he's a lot more curious about: ] There's a "force quit" box here. It needs a password.

[ he'll look the box all over in case there's a secret hint or something else in it before looking around the bar and computer in general to see if there's anything else ]
