Who: Pyxis
Where: Pyxis dorm
When: Day 204, morning
What: building \o/

[There is an assortment of edible construction materials laid out on the Pyxis diningroom table. Sugar cubes, graham crackers and gingerbread, frosting, gumdrops, and coconut make for a very appetizing and taunting display.]

... Do you think they'll let us eat it when we're done?

[once Aeon leaves and Ikki's done cursing at him for the tasering, turns and looks at where he is :|]

Oi.

[crowingabout.insanejournal.com]

[what's that, I am just an innocent blank standing in the middle of the Arena for no particular reason, you couldn't possibly be talking to me]

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

. . . oiiiii, new guy.

[crowingabout.insanejournal.com]

Who, me?

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

No, the idiot standing behind you.

The hell're you doing out here? I thought I told you to wait back at the dorm.

[shrugs] What's a Pyxis?

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

We're Pyxis. [gestures between them] Anyone wearing the same uniform as us, in this color. It's the name of our team.

[leadin' the way back inside]

[follows] So we're fighting this Foreman guy?

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

[shuts the door behind them]

Foreman's a Judge, we can't fight him. He's actually one of the better ones, even if he takes people off to God-knows-where. It's better than the alternative anyway.

[crowingabout.insanejournal.com]

Why can't we fight him? He took our teammates!

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

'Cuz it ain't that fucking easy, okay? You think I'd be standing here if we could?

[crowingabout.insanejournal.com]

[looks you over] Bet I could take him.

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

[looks YOU over]

Bet you couldn't.

[crowingabout.insanejournal.com]

I totally could.

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

Nnnonooo, you couldn't.

ANYWAY, I need to fill you in on everything. Sit down or something, it'll be a while.

[crowingabout.insanejournal.com]

Sure, gimme the run down. [sits]

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

Alright. [DEEP BREATH]

Number one! You're in Sabra La Tau. Waking up without memories is normal, if you saw that tube thing the guy in there is you. You did this willingly, despite how you'll feel in a few days once you get the hang of things. To keep it simple: This place sucks.

Number two! You can win your memories back in games the Judges run. Games can be anything from stupid puzzles to everyone on an entire team dying because of fucking voting bullshit. Mirror, Flowers, and Game Master are the most dangerous, though the latter dude hasn't shown up lately. Haunted too. Surgeon and Trickster get honorable mentions because they still suck even if they're "dead". [air quotes]

Any questions so far?

[crowingabout.insanejournal.com]

When do we start?

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

[blinks]

Whenever they call us to the Arena.

You need a name, too.

[crowingabout.insanejournal.com]

Oh yeah, and so does this guy! [gestures at thin air on the table]

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

[blink.

blink]

. . . you don't have an invisible dog too, do you.

[crowingabout.insanejournal.com]

Huh? He's not a dog or invisible.

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

There's nothing there.

[crowingabout.insanejournal.com]

You can't see the big black bird sitting on the table?
