QUEEN RULEBOOK

[retellers]

the queen On Wednesday, 9am, Sora will receive a message on his PHS. Hey! Please come meet me at the castle right away!! Upon receiving this message, Sora will notice that the castle appears closer than usual. Should he head towards it, he will finally be able to reach its entrance. Inside is a large hall with various doors, along with a staircase, but Sora will be able to access only a single door. Once he steps inside, he will find his Leader waiting for him. After their meeting is over and he leaves the castle, he will no longer be able to reach the castle again. ༶•┈┈⛧┈｡o°✥✣ 　　 ✣✥°o｡┈⛧┈┈•༶ As the Queen: Every Wednesday, the Queen will be given a choice between three items to help them during the competition. Each item will have a positive and negative effect of equal value on the game. While they will be told the positive effect of each item before making their choice, the negative one will only be revealed to them once it has been made. Choose wisely. ༶•┈┈⛧┈｡o°✥✣ 　　 ✣✥°o｡┈⛧┈┈•༶ Additional notes: The Queen will be allowed to ask questions about the ongoings of the games and communicate with their Leader in their weekly meetings. They will be able to also receive small hints in the game should they perform well. However, the information received will be up to their Leader's discretion.

[ she nods ]

Yeah. I think so. After what happened to Hajime, I hadn't wanted to let the other Leaders know too much, but... Lup wouldn't ever hurt you.

[reconnective]

Nope. I trust her with my entire life. Clementine, too, even though we're on different teams. [...] I'll think about telling one or two of the other Swans just in case something happens.

[hc. he means hc.]

But nobody else needs to know.

[retellers]

Yeah. I don't want it to spread too much. You and Clementine are doing stuff that could help, but... I don't like that one of the teams can affect the rules like that.

[ it's? a little worrying? ]

[reconnective]

...I should tell you that I found the King, too. I gave Clementine a tip-off so hopefully she figures out his team, but it's Emet-Selch. He can change the different rules we get each week. He doesn't know I'm the Queen though.

That leaves three more people, if it's one per team. Now that I've found everyone for our team I'm helping Clementine find others like us. Just in case. [he doesn't like that people can alter things either.]

[retellers]

Yeah, I know. I did listen in on that one. [ a little? sheepishly? sometimes you spy. it's fine. ] Do you think one of the other three was responsible for what happened on Sunday?

[reconnective]

The Knight. It has to be. [huff.] Hansa said someone came to tell him that Emet-Selch would likely be alright, but he wouldn't say who and I don't even know who to ask.

[retellers]

Well, it has to be someone on Goat, Fox, Wolf or Tiger, right? And one of those is Emet-Selch. So that ... somewhat narrows it down? We don't know how it works, though... It can't be that simple, or else why wouldn't they have done it before now?

[ hm. ]

[reconnective]

Probably. [that makes sense.] Clementine hasn't found any other titles yet as far as I know. I have a few people I might suggest she checks. I haven't had a chance to talk to Rabbit yet but I'm going to later today or tomorrow.

Clementine suggested it might be that whoever has an ability like that might have to pick someone earlier in the week. So if they pick the wrong person, they might not be able to do anything to help whoever's being executed.

[retellers]

So... they just got lucky, is her guess. [ she makes a face ] What if he hadn't done it in self-defense?

[reconnective]

Then we'd have another murderer on the loose just like the other...two? Three? That we haven't caught.

[retellers]

Ugh. At least one of those was self-defense, too. Still, that's kind of... I'm glad that's not our thing.

[reconnective]

...are you talking about Won? Or was there another murder that was self-defense that I don't know about? What I know is we don't know who killed Cater, Raven, or Sumire. [a pause.] But I'm glad it's not our thing either. I don't think I'd be good at it.

[because he wants to save as many people as possible.]

[retellers]

Soo-Won's the only one I know. I thought we were counting it?

[ there are too many murders. she nudges him lightly ]

Picking and choosing who you could save... I don't think I could help you with that, either.

[reconnective]

Nope. Won still doesn't know I know either. [but he gives her a faint grin at the nudge.]

We'd both suck at it, I think. But I wish I knew who it was. I hope they're okay.

[retellers]

I... think he knows I know? [ she. has to think about it and shrugs. listen it has never come up ]

I hope so, too. They must be glad they've managed to save someone.

[reconnective]

It doesn't matter as much as finding the others, but...I don't know.

[...] That's actually what I need to tell you. Lup got confirmation from Wolf. This is repeated history. We've done this before, but we just...failed, last time. Because we didn't catch all of the destabilized people last time.

So the splintering thing? I think it's really true.

[retellers]

How does Wolf know that?

[ indignant and. immediate. ]

[reconnective]

Uh, because Wolf's team keeps beating us in the rankings? But everything Wolf learns they tell Lup and Lup tells me and I tell you so it's kind of like we're still winning anyway.

[retellers]

They're not that much higher than us. [ POUTS!!! ] But I guess... I don't know. I don't like that everyone else gets these-- answers, and I don't.

[reconnective]

I don't know if everyone's getting them. I have no idea what Tiger might and might not know, but someone should probably tell them, too. [pouting right back.] Anyway it's kind of our fault you're not getting stuff. So...sorry.

[retellers]

No, don't apologize. [ squeezes his hand ] I'm just annoyed you guys have to learn all this stuff secondhand and I can't tell you anything useful.

[ :( ]

[reconnective]

...I wouldn't say that, Swan. And it's not like I only come to see you so you'll be useful to me or anything anyway.

[retellers]

I know. It's just... everyone else is always telling you what they've learned from their Leaders. [ she squeezes his hand again? ] And-- you feel like you can't help as much because you don't find out as much, but that's because of me.

[ swan, stop listening in on conversations ]

[reconnective]

[he's about to reassure her, but uh. hm. he has only said that to one person and it was not swan.]

Were you...listening to my conversation with Lup? [warily. oh no. DID SWAN SEE HIM CRYING? NOOOO SWAN STOP SPYING.] That's still not your fault though. No matter what.

[retellers]

I didn't mean to? But you were upset and I...

[ listened in. hm. ]

I was worried. I still am. [ hand!! squeezing!!!! ]
