[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.

... the judges who hold the games?

[wildgeese.insanejournal.com]

Yeah.

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

... why?

[wildgeese.insanejournal.com]

Why do the others play in the games?

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

No, why don't you? Why on that team?

[wildgeese.insanejournal.com]

Ophiuchus doesn't play in the games because they work for the judges instead.

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

So what exactly do the judges have you do?

[wildgeese.insanejournal.com]

...like I said, enforce the rules. Or other tasks, if needed.

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

Right. And what's those other tasks?

[wildgeese.insanejournal.com]

*shrugs*

It depends on what the judges want done.

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

... see. Now it just feels like you're avoiding the question. What kind of things? What? Judges need a massage, a little snuggle? Paint their toenails?

[wildgeese.insanejournal.com]

It varies. Most often, it's just to punish people who break the rules, or give certain tasks to certain teams. Sometimes it's other things. Once, a judge required Ophiuchus to carry out the effects of cards teams played against each other in a game, ranging from taking food or tools, to killing blanks.

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

. . . let me guess. You agreed to it willingly?

[wildgeese.insanejournal.com]

*shrugs*

I was transferred from a regular team, actually.

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

... yeah. I guess I can't get that at all.

[wildgeese.insanejournal.com]

Oh?

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

If you know what it's like on the receiving end... why would you be on the delivering end?

[wildgeese.insanejournal.com]

Ask the judges.

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

Yeah, uh. I don't think I'm that curious.

[wildgeese.insanejournal.com]

What Ophiuchus does isn't necessarily worse than what can happen in the games, in any case.
