this is a musical game, but this doesn't have lyrics for a title

[It's been nearly a week since everyone was brought here, so you know what that means. It's time to share information and discuss strategy!! Or something. Anyway, the Pirate King has gone around and told everyone (yes, even you!!) about the plans for a lunchtime meeting in the dining hall. You don't have to come if you don't want to and the Pirate King will not drag you there, but if you want lunch and you try to sneak by the room, he might notice you and drag you into it.

Once everyone is gathered (or most people, if some of you aren't showing up), he'll stand up and slam a hand down on the table to get everyone's attention.]

Gentlemen! ...And ladies. We have been in this establishment for nearly a week now! It's time we discuss our situation and what we've learned here. From my own explorations, it seems as though escape is impossible. None of the doors or windows will open no matter how much physical force is used! I would like to hear any ideas you all have about escape, but any information or plans in general would be wonderful!

[Let's get started, shall we?]

[Or... She lowers her voice.]

Can you lockpick?

[rockthistown]

I wish. Definitely not with anything here!

[sunshineprincess]

[Hmmm...]

There's pins, knives, all sorts of stuff. I think we would need a book on it though...

[rockthistown]

They're definitely not going to leave that lying around.

[sunshineprincess]

No... but we can still try and see if we can do it ourselves!

[rockthistown]

Okay!

...How do we know when he's not in there? Has anyone seen him leave to use the washroom or anything?

[sunshineprincess]

[That's a really good question.]

I haven't. But... what if he has all that in there?

[rockthistown]

Wait! The kitchen's closed at night. Maybe he's in there then!

[sunshineprincess]

That's right! Why don't we try then?

[rockthistown]

Okay! ...but we'd still need to figure out how to pick a lock.

[sunshineprincess]

Right. Hmm... why don't we ask Valjean. He's a convict!

[rockthistown]

He seems too nice to pick locks, though! It was probably something like tax evasion. And he might get offended!

[sunshineprincess]

If it was tax evasion, no wonder Javert is after him.

[rockthistown]

It can't have been anything really bad. ...Probably. Or if it was, it was an accident.

[sunshineprincess]

If he was a murderer, they wouldn't have brought him here in the first place.

[About that, Anna...]

[rockthistown]

...To murder land?

[sunshineprincess]

Well, yes. Why bring a murderer to a place where he can murder people who don't want to murder anyone? Wouldn't he have tried to kill someone already on the first day?

[rockthistown]

I... guess? Maybe?

[sunshineprincess]

.... Did I lose you?

[rockthistown]

Maybe they want that, though!
