Forum-Index → Roleplay → Ōmagatoki: Voluntas Dei Morientis (Game 4) [Ended]Dorky Monroe's POV
"I'm so sorry," he whispered. "I'm so sorry I'm so sorry I'm so so so sorry..."
He knew he'd never let himself forget this. He'd probably hate himself for the rest of his life for it.
How could he vote to take another person's life?
"It's... Part of the game, I guess..."
He put his hands over his mouth, which did little to muffle his sobbing through gritted teeth. He was shaking all over.
Was this really worth it? To win some kind of game?
And then again, maybe...
Maybe it wasn't real. Maybe... He wasn't killing anyone.
Right?...

"Everything is going to be okay."
Shieta shook her head, there isn't any time to waste trying to make sense of her logic, instead she should be firm and steady.
Calmly, Shieta voted for Luffy.
Tarik stared down Paiyoon. "I Don't know why you're voting out Luffy, nor do i know if you've actually played this game before. However, I do know that your argument is without evidence. Thus, it has no credence here. Remember, this is a death game, we're sending someone to their deaths again. You could be voting off a teammate, or if you're unlucky, one of the beings marked down by the archangel." Tarik paused. "Now that i think about it, you're sussing out two people in particular, doesn't that make you an archangel candidate Paiyoon? I don't trust you, I'm going to try to keep this group alive. I vote Paiyoon."
"Tarik turned to the others. "As for you all."
"I think we should give this more thought. Why are we trusting Paiyoon so much? Her so called experience? Remember, she could either have won her last few games to come here, or she could be lying about being in previous games. You're all lemmings waiting to follow her off the cliff while she clings to the edge. Change your votes to either Paiyoon or nobody,
I implore you. Miko, whoever you are, try to investigate Paiyoon tonight if possible. Keep ahold of your information and write down whatever scraps of info you get, it'll be important."
And where was I? Burning in hell, of course.

Dorky Monroe's POV
God, this person was right. Or might be right. What was he doing?
Everything seemed to be spinning. It was all so confusing. It was giving him quite the headache.
...
"I don't... I don't know what to believe. I'm sorry."
Dorky changed his vote to no one, because... What the hell else could he do?
Was Paiyoon suspicious or trustworthy? Was TARIK for that matter suspicious or trustworthy? Or Luffy?
"I don't know. I don't know the answer. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I messed this all up."
He gripped the sides of his head, gritting his teeth. "I don't... I don't know what to do."

Current Time: NIGHT
No characters may speak at night. Night will end once all characters complete their night actions.
As the sun sinks below the horizon, the already dimly-lit Mastix descends into a deeper, eerie darkness. The ash that blankets the landscape seems to amplify the obscurity, creating a foreboding atmosphere. The absence of stars in the sky, likely obscured by the constant haze of ash, makes it almost impossible to navigate without a light source. Even the shimmering Obeliscus, once a beacon of hope, fades into the shadows as its shadow disappears with the setting of the sun.
The air itself seems to thicken and grow heavier, as if the spirits of Mastix stir in the darkness. The abandoned village becomes even more ghostly, with the silhouettes of buildings only visible through the occasional ember that flickers to life. The Pantheonum's ruins loom in the distance, a testament to the gods who once reigned in this layer of Otherworld.
A shinigami strode forward and dragged Luffy away as Homusubi's booming voice resonated throughout the venue.
"With a majority of 3 votes, Luffy, the Civilian, will be separated from their physical form and returned back to Elysium. I shall see you at the dawn of tomorrow, but for now, please stay in your allocated housing."
(3 votes for Luffy, 1 vote for Sylvie, 1 vote for Shieta, 1 vote for Paiyoon, 7 skips)
The only person who she could trust was Harry. And he was just a ghost.
“Harry….what do I even do now….?”
Harry appeared in front of her and stared into her eyes. “Well, think about it. If you don’t have an attitude then you’ll get killed. Vortex was winging about not having any friends and Luffy was watching random Minecraft videos and hardly paying attention. Act like that and BANG. You’re gone.”
Sylvie thought about this. She didn’t really think what Harry said was exactly true……
She began to think. The psychological profile of the killer was beginning to take place. It was someone quiet, someone who liked to watch the drama unfold. It was someone who had gotten tired of Vortex's guitar playing...
"Oh Dorky... What are the odds that you're lying to me?" Paiyoon looked her new friend in the eye. Yes, it was possible, but improbable that Dorky was a killer. Of the remaining players, there were three Yokai left.
She had voted for Luffy rather quickly. While that may appear suspicious, it was rather in character for her. Stupid Tarek. First of all, there was never any evidence on the first vote. But if they didn't vote here, the math made it more likely for them to loose. What an idiot. Shut up, run some numbers, and get back to her then. But Tarek clearly didn't realize her genius plan: see who jumped on the innocuous vote of Luffy. Now she was suspected of being archangel.
But who else had voted Luffy? They were the suspicious ones.
It was never meant to be.

Dorky Monroe's POV
Luffy was dead. Vortex was dead. What was worse, they were Civilians.
The numbers were ticking down.
AND PEOPLE HAD FREAKING DIED.
"Is... Is this real?" Dorky choked out. "Oh god... Oh my god..."
He narrowed his eyes. How could Paiyoon be so unconcerned? Luffy had just freaking died.
"Lying to you?..."
...
"Paiyoon... Did I ever even claim anything? Just... From a factual standpoint. You know."
He paused. "Are you... Accusing me of being a Yōkai? Because that's not true. I-It will never be true. I would never kill anybody. I- I--"
He covered his face with his hands. "Oh, god... But I just did... With this stupid vote thing. I- I revoked my vote, but..."
...
"Maybe if I hadn't listened in the first place, Luffy would still be here..."
...
"This is- this is so messed up..."
He forced himself not to cry, shaking as he pulled his hands away from his face.
He looked Paiyoon straight in the eyes, and shook his head.
"Paiyoon... How do... I know what your identity is, either? You just seemed to know what you were doing, and-- you felt ambiguous. Like you could be either way. But... Are you pulling some kind... Of town credit, thing? How was Luffy being a pirate anything to vote him for?"
...
"I'm sorry... I know it's stupid, but... I- I don't know if I can trust you either. I'm sorry, this is so mean of me. I'm sorry."

"Everything is going to be okay."
*She sighed softly*
What were the chances of TWO civilians getting killed?!
Did Paiyoon know something she didn’t….? Was there a reason she voted Luffy…?
No…She was just being ridiculous….. She also had a headache. That was when Harry stepped in.
“Weeeeeell, Potter earned herself a headache from thinking too much. Ohhhhh dear.”
“Shut up.”
“I’ll rather not.”
“Leave me alone Harry……”
“Alright, I’ll come when your headaches gone.”
*He faded into Sylvies wand*
She sighed. "I'm not asking for anyone's trust. I just... I'm not Yokai. I swear. I really thought Luffy was playing the afk strat. And now we have a few suspicions and leads to go off." It was never fun to watch someone die, but Paiyoon knew that skipping on round one gave up a free shot that the town would otherwise have. Was it cold and callous? Perhaps. But this was a numbers game through and through.
It was never meant to be.

"Lydia, I appreciate the blind vote of confidence. Just because of that, I think you're even more suspicious, but I won't vote for you." She smiled coyly. Paiyoon just wanted to get through one round without being sussed for something she didn't do.
It was never meant to be.
