Bother?]

You don't have to worry about that this time, it's fine.

[lone_centurion.insanejournal.com]

Why is it fine this time?

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

...I'm not going to ask a new and inexperienced team to find something to trade, that is unfair...

[lone_centurion.insanejournal.com]

Will they accept us promising to pay you back later?

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

That should be fine.

[lone_centurion.insanejournal.com]

Then I'll do that. As soon as I can, I'll pay you back.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

Okay. Thank you. Ah... is there anything specific you want to know about?

[lone_centurion.insanejournal.com]

Food, water, medicinal plants...that should help a lot.

Can you tell me more about the judges?

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

We don't know very much about them. They run the games, and as far as I know none have seen their true form yet. The ones to watch out for are Surgeon, Flowers, and Mirror.

[lone_centurion.insanejournal.com]

I've heard some details about the first two. What's so bad about Mirror?

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

Her games have some element of danger to them, but I have heard that we should be careful of the Judge herself. She reflects what you do not wish to see in yourself and tries to harm with her words.

At least, that is what I was told.

[lone_centurion.insanejournal.com]

Reflects what we do not wish when we don't know ourselves? That's...an interesting tactic.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

It won't really be a problem for you now, no. But once you have recovered some memories, there may be regrets, or sorrows, or other things you would rather not have used against you.

However, the cruelty is there, so you should be careful.

[lone_centurion.insanejournal.com]

...I suppose so. If we all have a wish, we had to feel like we couldn't do it ourselves, right?

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

Some people have very large wishes to make. Whatever you were wishing for, it had to be worth giving up your memories and your freedom.

[lone_centurion.insanejournal.com]

Yeah, but I'd imagine a lot of people would feel bad they couldn't do it themselves.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

It depends on the person. But having your wish granted this way does not come easy. You could say that in the end you have paid a price for it.

[lone_centurion.insanejournal.com]

I suppose. Even if it's hard to believe the Judges are doing all this just for entertainment. It seems to be a bit much for just that.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

We don't know why they are doing it.

[lone_centurion.insanejournal.com]

No one does?

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

No, though I am sure people have their theories.

Did you all choose names yet?

[lone_centurion.insanejournal.com]

Would you know any?

I'm Brass, another is Arrow, but the third one hasn't decided yet.

There's Hope and Dagger on Corvus, but the first guy doesn't have one yet either.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

It's best not to talk about those kinds of things out here. Supposedly, once you are inside your dorm, the Judges cannot hear you -- but they can if you are outside.

Corvus is the other purple team? What is the name of your team?

[lone_centurion.insanejournal.com]

I heard they couldn't take us from in there. I'm still not sure why they provided such a thing.

They are. We're Lynx.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

We don't know why they choose to do anything.

Lynx and Corvus. [nods!]

Welcome.
