Well, that little brawl was entertaining at first, at least. But then one of the combatants slipped metal onto his apparently insatiable fists and started suggesting the luxray get zappy.
[[Okay, maybe step in now. Maybe. Idk.]]
But things escalated before he could. The brass-augmented punches flew, though they inflicted a little less harm than Karo had anticipated. Hmm. All the same, he decided it was time to act. Especially since that eager little charmander was trying to get in on the action. Concentrating, he formed the beginnings of a force field, invisible but very much tangible, between the bleeding Kalosian and any parties too closeby, hoping to nudge them all away from one another.
[[Don't read anything into that last bit; that's just Karo figuring out that yeah he's too slow to intervene properly and maybe doing weird shit with his block ability. Doesn't mean anything wrt any game-relevant abilities he might have.
Okay, so. Day ending soon. All we know is that two messages happened for some reason. My theories at this point re: that are that either we have two mailpeople or else maybe one mailperson and a jack of all trades who sent a message last night, too. (Although, why use up your message shot so early, when you know nothing other than what you are?) At any rate, it tells me precisely fuck all about who's scum and who ain't.
I do not like voting when I know this little. I know we need to start jailing eventually; scum can't be the only ones firing shots. I get that. I've seen arguments in past games for abstaining day 1 if so inclined. I've seen arguments for not doing so, and admittedly they do kind of seem more compelling, like there's more substance to them. I've also seen arguments for and against voting inactives specifically, although I can't recall off the top of my head whether these came from later-confirmed scum or not. Also probably worth mentioning that all the arguments I'm thinking of came from a single game (namely the inaugural TR mafia), because it only occurred to me a day or two before things kicked off here that uh, maybe I oughta study previous games again, especially as it's been a while since I last played.
No proper readlist from me yet. Pretty much everyone is just a big question mark at this point. If anything, I feel like I know even less on this day 1 than I've known on previous first day ones (days one?) sdfssdgs...
Ptptptpt. Might end up voting, might not. Still undecided.]]
