Conquest Round Seven

Some of you might be a little worse for wear but nonetheless the screens bear the same message as they do every Sunday. "Please report to the loby at 12 noon for assembly." Santana will gather up anyone who is dawdling.

As usual Day stood on the small raised podium with Flynn, Feferi, Nephenee, Nevin and Gino. Santana came to join them when everyone was assembled.

"Good morning," Day didn't seem in a dangerous mood. "I hope you all enjoyed the change of scenery last Round." She had seen most of the footage and had actually been surprised by how well some of them had done, and very amused at the failings.

"Well done to those who defeated the final boss, commiserations to those that didn't but your efforts were... notable."

Anyone feeling suspicious about the lack of punishment would perhaps have those suspicions belayed when her eyes glinted. "We have some new people I remind them the rules are on page nine. Read them. Please note that violence is only acceptable in official exaclan battles."

Her eyes met Spades Slick and for a moment he would be hit with a sharp head pain. It only lasted a couple of seconds though.

"This Round is back to normal, I hope I don't have to remind you that losing is not acceptable. The Players for this round are," the screen switched on to show the following list, Day read the names outloud.

"Golbez
Suzaku
America
Kotaro
Prussia
Itsuki
Gino"

The lack of any sort of punishment was, frankly, worrying.

Golbez didn't think much on it, though, because he had been feeling a bit tired, achey, and just generally out of it ever since breakfast.

A Player again. He didn't mind. He hated to admit it, but he was almost resigned to it by now. As soon as Day stopped talking, he went in search of his first Weapon.

He didn't have to go far. Flynn was intent on ensuring he and Yuri were partnered with a Conquest Player, so he could keep a better eye on his friend. Despite the relatively peaceful assembly, he'd been seeing something unpleasantly smug in Santana's expression that boded ill both for Conquest and for Yuri's tentative peace with the staff. It meant he had to find a Player before Yuri did, in any case.

And anyway, Golbez was a pleasant sort of person.

"Golbez! Good morning," He walked closer before adding, unnecessary but polite, "I don't suppose you have already found Weapons?"

Ah, there was Flynn. Just the person he'd been looking for.

He nodded in greeting. "No, not yet. I was actually meaning to ask if you would be willing to partner with me for this round."
whitestknight: (what; there's always another)

"I was thinking the same thing." He glanced down to check again that his hand was still devoid of a shield mark, and nodded when it proved clear. "But will you be able to fight with Yuri or I? As you know, we are both swords."

"...ah, that's right." He frowned slightly. "I'm currently unable to wield swords. After vowing with you both, I will be one rak short of the necessary amount for a memory charm. Although I hadn't wanted to ask for a loan..."

Iceland didn't know much about Golbez other than his name and the subject he taught, and that he was a player this round, and happened to be the closest to where Iceland was seated. And that being a discard was something to avoid, if at all possible.

"Hey," Iceland said as he approached. "Do you need another weapon?"
stoppedhiding: (r u for real)

No problem <3

[personal profile] stoppedhiding 2012-04-22 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
All of those are a very good basis on which to begin a Player-Weapon relationship. Yes.

Golbez glanced over at Iceland; he didn't know this guy very well, aside from him being a student, but he wasn't going to turn down an offer like that. "I could use one, yes. Are you opposed to being used in battle?"

"No. Are you opposed to halberds?" He asked. Probably not the best way to bring it up. Oh well.

"I'm quite all right with them, as a matter of fact." At least it wasn't a ranged weapon. Since arriving in Rakuen, he'd discovered himself to be quite hopeless with those.
