You are just too fucking kind. [Rose watches her do so, calling down to the newly freed prisoners once the last box is open]

Hey! Don't flip the fuck out over this, alright? You're all going to get out in one piece as long as you stay calm.

the event turned him into tumblr, sorry

[whatpenguin]

[Sorry, Strider, but this one's going to be a bit of a thorn in your side - normally he'd be all sorts of willing to help, but thanks to being fixed into his costume and simmering for a few days, his new ~kingly mind~ has other plans.]

Who am I supposed to be taking orders from?
I refuse to be lead around by a peasant!

[Not that he's really in any position to argue, blind bound as he is...]

not quite as bad as it turned this one into an entitled brat orz orz orz

[cullscuttlefish]

[It's probably for the best for everyone else that they're blindfolded; looking at the fabric of Feferi's dress would be painful to do for too long. But she can at least think clearly enough to recognize Genda's voice, despite the effects of her costume.]

Your Grace. Please...I'm here. I need you to protect me. You can pass judgment once we're safely through this.

FUCK YOUR ENTITLEMENT I'M A HEROOOOOO

[reddeadvirtuoso]

[Well this one was a bit more sane in the head! Sort of. Actually she was missing part of her head, but who's counting? Her death was only a few days ago, but it seems like she had already jumped off the deep-end.

But needless to say, she was not happy about being in Rose's trap again, and she was not happy being in the same place as these scoundrels!!]

I'm won't be subject to your judgment, you vile freaks! Get me out of here right now or so help me...!!

and then this kid is just... a little kid... in a lamby lamby costume....

[manlyasfuck]

[Ok... it was really dark... and he couldn't move his arms... and from the sounds of things there were other people in the same predicament as him. Ok. Great...]

H-hey, maybe we should listen to... the first girl who talked and stay calm? [Yeah staying calm sounds like a good idea to him... though it's easier said then done..]

and this kid is...not in a costume, but that doesn't speak much for his mental state

[tortileghostwriter]

[Oh for fuck's sake. Rose, the more rational parts of his mind are all for this plan, but damn, he's pissed.]

Oh, what fresh hell is this?

[thornythaumaturge]

This is a game. [[She sounds so proud of herself.]] A game all six of you will be playing together. I just hope you know who to trust!

[[Have as much of a cheeky smile as a girl with a wooden bottom jaw can give you, Rose.]]

[restitchtime]

[Rose pauses to give her puppet double a nasty look which quite clearly implies that if she's so interested in giving out commentary then why doesn't she just play the fucking thing herself. then she returns her gaze to the maze, smooth as can be.]

The bitch is right - we've all been hijacked into another fun torture porn scene. But I can see you and if you just don't flip the fuck out and listen to me I can walk you out of here.

Ok? I don't know how much sense I can talk into you guys who got hit with the costume shit but hopefully you'll understand there's a lot more common sense in letting the only person not blindfolded and psychotic talk you through this.

[whatpenguin]

[Genda's already started wandering, sadly enough - walking tall and high and mighty. Though, look, he has a bit of rationality left --]

If you lead me to my queen first, I'll consider listening to a peasant.
Speaking with such vulgarity proves you must be one.

[Making no promises of keeping to his word, though.]

[cullscuttlefish]

[Feferi's following the sound of Genda's voice as best as she can. It's made more difficult by the fact that she's chasing a moving target, but she's keeping her steps light. Still, she wishes she had her scepter with her, to use for balance and for feeling out what's in front of her.]

I believe there's at least a grain of truth in what the girl - foul-mouthed as she may be - is saying. At least so far as being able to see us goes.

And the young boy is also correct; we would all do well to calm our nerves and listen first.

[The unspoken sentence: 'everyone except Koujirou-sama.' Or it would be, if she knew the proper honorific.]

[reddeadvirtuoso]

[On the other hand, Jade was going to stand in one spot indignantly. Which may or may not have be smarter?]

Why the hell would I listen to you, huh? For all we know, that first girl is in line with the bastard that put us in here in the first place!

[manlyasfuck]

[Dipper's not really moving either... but only because he's a bit too confused to start wandering around. He doesn't want to accidentally get hurt or something...]

Well maybe we should stop arguing at least? I mean, we're not going to be able to get out by yelling at each other! [He has a feeling his words aren't going to make any effect on anyone though...]

[tortileghostwriter]

Jade, you're hardly about to get anywhere on your own, are you?

[Good thinking, Dipper. David's approach is essentially the same, though he's less confused and more annoyed. And damn if his voice isn't showing it.]

That boy who spoke after you, however, has the right idea. Much as I would enjoy a shouting match at the moment...
