On Monday afternoon, regardless of where the Wickets, Ghosts and Thieves are, they will each soon find a familiar blue, gray or purple bunny at their feet, circling around them before zooming its way back to the directors' office. It will continue hounding each of them until they follow, leading them into the door marked 3A CONFERENCE. Inside, they will find a couch pushed against one wall, a whiteboard on the wall opposite to the door, and a low circular table with bean bag chairs set around it. There is a water cooler and snack shelf in one corner of the room, and decorative plants can be found here and there. Their rules will remain unchanged. However, something interesting will happen once they step into the room as a group. Glancing down at their scrunchies, the pink sequins on the ears have changed to a soft, golden color. Though other campers will not notice this change, and they still can't see each other's scrunchie colors (blue, purple or gray), they will be able to see each other's sequin colors. Huh. Rules: 1.) Every Monday, the [Wickets/Thieves/Ghosts] will meet with their team leader in order to receive their assignment. The details of this assignment will rotate each week, and will ultimately be for the benefit of the camp. All choices made must be unanimous. 2.) On certain weeks, however, the team leader may task the [Wickets/Thieves/Ghosts] with eliminating one person from the competition in addition to their normally assigned task. 3.) While assignments require that both [Wickets/Thieves/Ghosts] collaborate, that is not necessarily the case when eliminating a camper. While both must come to an agreement on who to eliminate, it is not necessary that both become involved in the act itself. It is up to the [Wickets/Thieves/Ghosts]' discretion to decide if they will act as accomplices to each other, or only send one of their own to carry out the task. After noticing the change in their scrunchies, whichever of them arrives first will notice that Winter, Heart and Shadows are seated at the low table. Were they always there...? Oh, well. They plop their respective bunny down on their lap and gesture at them to take a seat. It's time to chat.

[flayn looks stricken - she shakes her head]

No. Please, no.

[chaoticlootral]

[Rubbing his temples? He gets it but—]

What am I supposed to do then, Flayn? Die trying to kill someone I can’t take on? Anaido is— he’s smart, he’s brave, I think he’d really understand the outcome we’re going for.

[ruffboi]

The other option is I find a way to stay awake with you. I can help you kill somebody else, like 45.

[Magnus. How.]

[chaoticlootral]

[magnus,]

We can’t kill 45. She’s a role. We need them to be alive.

[ruffboi]

We could kill one of us. If we had to. If we can't think of another option.

[chaoticlootral]

We’re roles too, Mags.

[said very slowly, like he’s explaining something simple.]

[fishingforcompliments]

No!

[NOOOOO DYING. Taako is no allowed to die.]

...I think he would understand, too. I do. But... he has people who care about him, and. [...] If we are meant to cooperate with everyone, in the end, we cannot...

[chaoticlootral]

[Sighing out, but he backs off?]

Everyone has people they care about here. Everyone. That’s the point, that’s why it hurts so bad.

[fishingforcompliments]

I am sorry. I just - I do not know what to do. I have never known what to do.

[she's not a strategist WHERE IS BYLETH.]

[chaoticlootral]

[HE DOESN’T WANT TO LIKE. Upset her, so.]

Wen Ning said no, and I wanted to give him the chance to refuse first. So. That settles it anyway.

I guess the strategy is, we need someone who won’t be revenge killed for, and someone who might be willing to listen to reason if we approach them on Thursday night and be like, hey? Can we stab you? But, like, nicely.

[ruffboi]

Flayn.

[Putting a hand on her shoulder.]

It isn't decided yet. I know, you've lost a bunch of people. And none of us wanna hurt Black Shadows, either.

[fishingforcompliments]

...

[She nods.]

I am sorry. I just...

[ruffboi]

I know, but.

[He glances, worried, at Taako.]

In the end, it's Taako who's gonna have to bring himself to do this. You can say how you feel, but we can't force Taako to have to hurt somebody he cares about with his own hands, or try to fight somebody who he can't handle.

Taako's the one who has to do it, so it has to be a decision he can live with, and the rest of our feelings come after that.

Don't you think that's fair?

[chaoticlootral]

[He’s right here and just hears all this Magnus. He crosses his arms over himself, squeezing for a second, before he shakes his head.]

I said I can take it, Magnus. I said I’d be the one to press that button, and I did, and I’m the one who can take it. I’m used to it, so it’s fine.

We won’t kill Anaido.

[ruffboi]

Bullshit, Taako.

[He knows Taako better than anyone, and he knows that no matter how hard Taako likes to act, he isn't okay with what's happening, either. He also knows that every time Taako forces himself to be harder and crueler than he really is, it does damage to him that may not be fixable.]

[fishingforcompliments]

[Magnus has a point. So.]

He is right. If you are the one taking a life, you should... how you feel about it should take priority. We will be here to support you.

...I am sorry. I should not have said anything.
