week 4, wednesday - time for a meeting!

[robitussin]

[Now that two murders have occurred, most everyone is probably eager to prevent another death from occurring. It's a good idea to share information as well, so now, it's time for another group meeting! Earlier in the day, Natalie goes around and lets everyone know that there's going to be another discussion in the dining hall during the afternoon. She won't force anyone to come if they don't want to, but she at least makes sure to inform everyone she can find.

Once everyone is present, she raises her voice, making sure that she's heard.]

Okay, let's get this show on the road. It's been a while since all of us have had a discussion as a group other than during trials, so let's do that again. If there's anything you want to bring up, definitely go for it. We should figure out as much as we can while we're here.

BUDDY SYSTEM

[robitussin]

[She called everyone here, so she figures she should start. She takes a breath.]

So... It's pretty obvious that what we're doing isn't working. Being vigilant is great and all, but it didn't help Valjean or Hime. So... What if we use a buddy system. For those of you who don't know what that is, it's basically when you stick close to someone to keep both of you safe. If everyone else wants to do this, I'm going to suggest that we have a list somewhere of which people are partnered together in case something happens. It could at least help with verifying alibis if it comes to that.

If anyone has any opinions or suggestions, I'd like to hear it.

Oh my god, that sounds like fun! [Yeah, lets be real, Heather misses the opportunity to follow someone around like a puppy dog. ] Would we like, swap off?

[robitussin]

My thought was to go with whoever you trusted most and stick with them, unless you want to switch at some point.

[onthebusagain]

Wow, like besties, then. That'll be exciting. [And make her inwardly panic that no one will be her buddy, or she'll get stuck with the awful pirate, or something like that. ]

It's a good idea.

[robitussin]

That is a word I am never going to use, but yeah, same concept.

[solomonjihad]

That makes sense. Maybe we can draw by lot or...pick our own partners?

[robitussin]

I think picking your own partners would make more sense... That way everyone can get someone they trust, which is less likely to result in stabbing? Probably.

[solomonjihad]

That's true.

[So don't pair Anna and Hans, got it]

Though, anyone who partners with me has to be careful. I know nothing of the other me, after all...

[dontfeedplants]

[So Seymour is just going to casually ignore that conversation they had on Monday.]

That might not be a bad idea, actually. Then even if someone dies there could be clues by their buddies. Both from the victim and the culprit.

[robitussin]

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. We could put up a sign somewhere that lists who's sticking with who, and who wasn't interested in pairing up.

[dechagny]

I would not be opposed to it, as you know.

[They have talked about it before.]

[robitussin]

Cool. You decided who you want to go with yet?

[dechagny]

[Shakes head.] I would rather the others pick first.

[bestof]

It couldn't hurt to try.

[A miracle has occurred, she's come out of her room for more than a minute and thirty-second motive song.]

[robitussin]

Yeah.

...Have you been okay? Haven't really seen you around lately.

[canned laughter]

[bestof]

No, not really. [At least she's being upfront about it this time.] But wasting time on tears isn't what we need now.

[irreprochable]

We could lock everyone in their rooms.

[robitussin]

...Which way do our doors lock?

[irreprochable]

We could barricade them. Maybe tie people up.

[littlegirl_littlecurl]

[Darla is soft and small, like a pastry. So hey. This is probably a hood idra.]
... I guess I should have a buddy.

[robitussin]

Are you going to try to drown them?

[littlegirl_littlecurl]

I had to have my butler rip a apart a sprinkler system to flood a movie lot to almost drown some animals.

It aint really gonna happen here, doll.

[sunshineprincess]

[A buddy system sounds like a really good thing. Seeing as Hime would have been her first choice along with Natalie, Anna's not sure what to do. One friend is dead, and if something happened to Natalie...]

I like that idea. I just don't know who would want to be paired with me. I'm kind of a klutz, and I'm pretty sure some people here probably don't like me very much.

[Yes. Even with friends she thinks rather lowly of herself.]

I do know how to fight, so maybe I'll be fine on my own?

[robitussin]

Actually, I was going to ask you if you'd stick with me.

[She continues after a moment of hesitation.]

I mean, if that's cool with you.

[sunshineprincess]

[............. She looks like she's about to cry but burst with happiness at the same time.]

Really? I'd like that a lot!
