Who: Rory, Lynx, Anyone
Where: The Lynx and Corvus area.
When: Day 145, afternoon
What: Look, some new people!

[There's a person in gray walking around the new buildings. He seems to be scanning the area around the two buildings, getting his bearings perhaps? Though he looks pretty calm and collected.

Bother?]

[Points to the door.]

Lynx.

Huh! That's kind of cool-sounding!

By the way, I'm Simba, of Hydra. [Plucking his lime green shirt] Our dorm is a little far, you can't see it from here. But it's in that direction. [Points over yonder.]

[Notes that it's over yonder, at least.]

It is nice to meet you, Simba. [Of course, he doesn't have a name.] Hydra sounds more powerful to me than Lynx.

Does it? I don't feel very powerful.

Anyway, most people here tend to either pick names or be bestowed one by a teammate that suits them, until they can remember their real names. It's easier than saying "Hey, you," anyway.

Is your unit powerful?

I suppose it would. I need to decide on one.

Hm... I think all the teams have different strengths and weaknesses.

There's no rush. A name is important, right? So take your time! Maybe get some suggestions from people.

I'd rather decide it on my own.

Haha! So you're the sort of guy who likes to be in charge of his own stuff, then?

I am. It's better to be able to depend on yourself, isn't it? [More like he doesn't want to appear weak.]

It's important, but it's not everything.

Sometimes it's important to know when to be able to rely on others, too.

...yes.

But you should get to know them first.

That depends.

I wasn't lying when I said your teammates are like your family. You should trust each other, if no one else.

And when I know them, I'll trust them.

... Guess so.

So ... is there anything else you want to know?

I'd like to know more about the Judges.

... Oh. I don't... really know enough about them, sorry. I've only been in two games so far. But if you have the choice, you should definitely stay away from the judge named Flowers.

Why?

She's... She enjoys making people hurt each other.

..how?

The game I was in... everyone had to choose two people to hurt in some way before moving on to the next level and win the game.

... Of course it turned into a free-for-all, since nobody wanted to be the two left behind.

...that would turn into pure chaos.

... Yeah, that was about it. ... Sorry, I actually really don't like talking about it. Is there anything else?

Any other Judges to be wary of?

The only other game I've been in is one of Gambler's. It was pretty much harmless. From what I can gather, his games involve games of the more literal sort. We had to pick a card, the lowest card one, that sort of thing.

They're that different?
