Who: YOU (=
Where: Arena
When: Day 79, Morning
What: GAME

[You find the arena littered with butterflies, per usual, and while there is no seating provided, there floor is carpeted with cool, springy grass. There are also twelve blackboards placed against a long, white wall.]

Good morning, everyone. Please wait while everyone gathers. I understand that lately many of the games have caused great stress, while this is, perhaps, to be expected, I think it is fair to allow for breaks as well. Today's game will be simple, if challenging, and there will be no cause for harm, nor any punishments.

Make yourselves comfortable, we will begin shortly.

What happened? It didn't look bad . . .

Re: [Winners]

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

It was happy, all right. Happy for the me at the time. I cheated my way through a test and felt damn proud of myself for it.

Re: [Winners]

You couldn't pass it honestly?

Re: [Winners]

I tried twice. This was the third goddamn time.

Re: [Winners]

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

And I was a damn ass about it too. Goofing off in the simulation, sleeping with that girl just to get the subroutine installed...

Re: [Winners]

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

Like I said. I was happy at the time. I just happened to be a jerk and an asshole about it. ... good thing I've got the later stuff and you guys to remind me who I really am, or I mighta turned out that way.

Re: [Winners]
