[ okay, okay. at some point he's going to lift his hands, trying to get everyone's attention. ]

There may be five of us right now, but we're still missing the sixth follower, and two of us are being forced to change alignment this week. Love will be down to at least four.

... we should consider if we want to try and find the sixth follower, and see if it's worthwhile to convince them to stay. And if we want to try and find new followers, as well. How do we want to continue playing the game, as followers aligned with Love?

[selfimmolates]

I honestly have no clue who the final Love follower is. [...] We could try pooling together who we know isn't with Love—without naming their actual alignment, if we've promised confidentiality—I guess?

[heartmunculus]

I know Cinque isn't with Love.

[covenantal]

... those I know are Jude, Madoka, and Ludger. I knew Senri's alignment, but I don't know if he changed alignments since then.

I can say with certainty that Jude will not switch gods.

[ he can't 100% speak to the others. ]

[requiemed]

Senri isn't with Love.

[symphonise]

Ribbons outed herself at the trial that she has to change alignments, so it depends who she'll choose by tomorrow.

[requiemed]

Assuming you mean Madoka... I don't think she's going to go with Love.

[covenantal]

No, she won't. I can't explain more than that, but we need to have faith in her choice, for now.

[requiemed]

Yeah. I think I know who she's headed for, too, so... I trust her.

[selfimmolates]

I know Senri, Madoka—or rather, who she'll choose—Ishikirimaru, Majima, Mizuki, and maybe Sasuke... though Sasuke can't be relied on to stay with any god for longer than a week anyway.

Senri could be convinced to join Love if she's still winning by the end, but she's not his first pick.

[covenantal]

We have two more weeks before the game ends, according to what Patience set out at the beginning. Could we talk to Senri next week, if that's the case?

[selfimmolates]

... Since he knows I'm with Love already, I can try, though I don't know if he'll switch just yet—especially if any of his favourite gods is in danger. We pretty much made a mutual agreement of "we'll see who's winning in the last week".

[heartmunculus]

I also know Ai hasn't spoken to Love, so she's probably not a follower.

[covenantal]

... I can't say this for sure, but I think Estelle is also not the missing follower we need. But she might be willing to change alignments. I'd have to ask.

[heartmunculus]

That leaves a lot of options for the last follower.

You two seem fairly close.

[selfimmolates]

[...]

Also, if we're going to be talking strategy:

[he takes out a tin.]

This was my reward from Justice and Merriment's scavenger hunt—five cookies. Anyone who eats one will be compelled to blurt out a secret of theirs.

... Not the most savoury way of doing things, obviously, but if you ever really need one for some reason, let me know.

[requiemed]

...Is it a random secret, or can you pick a topic or something?

[selfimmolates]

Unfortunately, I think it's a random secret.

[symphonise]

We'll just have to hope for something advantageous, if we want to go that way.

[covenantal]

That should definitely be a last resort. Still, it's good to know we have the option.

[requiemed]

[After a while:]

...Oh, yeah. Since we're talking about strategy and everything, I have a pair of glasses that can tell whether a piece of evidence is real or if it was planted using Blame Game. I can only use them once, though.

[heartmunculus]

That's a lot more useful than what I got from that.

Merriment and Justice gave me a rock that will always hit its target.

[requiemed]

[She pauses for a second, then shakes her head.]

Oh, I didn't get it from the scavenger hunt. I got a book of matches that light whatever I'm looking at on fire from that. The glasses I got from Indulgence.

[covenantal]

... I have a pair of glasses that I received. I can't say from where.

[ ... ]

They have a somewhat questionable ability.

[heartmunculus]

What do they do?
