Janine grimaced at the somber turn of events, but that of course was the name of the game. Well shoot, this was bad for business "Poor Glykeria... It was just about time for my worker's yearly check-ups too..."

 The doctor. Suddenly, in kicked the acting. He was playing a game, and damn it, despite his nerves, he was going to play it like it was real!
So, the doctor. That meant the wolves were going for someone vital. His throat tightened, a nervous whimper escaping him. His ears flicked to Dar, cheeks flushing as a response. Oh gosh, it's a game! Relax! No nights were being had!
"They went after someone who could heal our wounds.... and p-protect us..." Captain obvious, but, he was thinking out loud. Tobias looked at his lap, nervously tapping his claws together. "We need to do something..... b-but what?" Who was next? What if it was him? Tobias shuddered, mentally reminding himself this was a game! He shouldn't actually be scared!

 She smiled when Tobias did, glad that he was starting to loosen up. It was a game, after all and she just wanted to have fun and to entertain where she could. Besides, this would probably give him a good story to tell his friends later. How the junior survived among the seniors.
She snickered a little at that thought and at Eli's narrative, but the news that one of their players was now out put her back in the mind set of the game. She turned when Auri spoke to her, an eyebrow arched. Usha probably wasn't that good of an actress. "Well, friends, maybe some of us aren't actually....friends." Smooth. So smooth. She gave an exaggerated look of suspicion to the whole circle while managing to keep Tobias protectively close.

Turn 2, Day - The HangingGoals:- The person that stands accused will post, pleading their case. - I will wait 15 minutes, if at least 4 people ask them to be freed, they will be cut loose and no one will die today.  "The town was outraged. The town was terrified. The town had rope, and they had knots, but they didn't have answers. Was it ironic that the knotsmith would dangle from her own handiwork? Would she get pleasure from seeing her craft executed so well during her execution?
Zazie was brought to the town square, up onto the platform and her head placed in a loop of her own craft. But in this hush, did she have some last words? Could she undo this noose with her tongue as well as she could tie a cherry stem with it?"

Zazie giggles at the irony before shifting back into character. Sorta.
"Well this sucks. Who's gonna hang the next person if you kill me? I've seen your attempts at knot tying, I mean even this noose is a pisspoor example. See, I'd just have to wiggle like this, and then flick my ears, and...there.
I slip out of the noose as it unravels, and then realize I have nowhere to go. Getting out of the rope tied around my hands was no problem. Never the one for 'all talk no action', I go ahead tie a better noose, and retie the rope around my hands...before realizing that this was a stupid idea.
So uh...can I go free now?"

Turn 2, Day - DeathGoals:- Read and respond if you like, but don't have to. Night post in a tick here~ "Silence. None spoke in Zazie's defense. Even though the rope now no longer hung in a noose, or her hands weren't bound, the press of bodies in the crowd and the executioner's hand on her shoulder kept her in place.
"Go Free?" the Executioner asked sardonically with a chuckle. "KNOT TODAY!" He roared, picking her up and tossing her from the platform onto the ground below. Who knew he had excellent aim? Her neck snapped instantly upon landing, her life and her craft lost to the village. "

Turn 2, Night / Turn 3 - DayGoals / Info:- Read and respond Everyone was told to close their eyes again, and once more roles were tapped and asked without words. Nodding in accent, Eli gathered his thoughts before playing his part as the narrator. "With Zazie's broken body hauled away to be buried, a town grieved both for the losses in life and for their loss in safety as the moon slowly rose once more. People scurried home, doors slammed shut, and maybe no one slept. Surely very few. A soft snick as a gun's safety was taken off, a quiet moan from some other house. A sigh. A whisper of cloth.
The Seer's ball laid quiescent on it's pedestal, the viewing into someone's bed already done. However, it wouldn't be enough to save her own life. She couldn't foresee this.
A rustle in the bushes, a scrape of claws against wood, and then a scream cut short. Aurianna's mangled body laid out on the floor worried by teeth much too big, no matter Auri's tastes. Another victim to the things that went bump in the night. Or at least the werewolf ones anyway.
Light stole into the secret places, bringing with it the dawn. Another life lost, discovered by the sleepless villagers. Who did this? Who was to blame? And perhaps not related at all, but who would pay with their life?"

 Aurianna sighed. WELL THAT WAS HER OUT. She shifted to a place where she could sit behind Usha and moan... in a mostly ghostlike fashion. Mostly. Somewhat. Kind of anyways?

Wow! Both the doctor and the seer? The werewolves, whoever they were, must have been really intuitive. Raleka wasn't really sure how to react, but she was having a good time. "Poor Aurianna!" she cried, attempting to be as in character as possible. She looked around, searching faces for hints of suspicion.

Janine had to stifle the smile from the terribly wonderful puns that Meliza was pulling out of their sleeve to greeve the loss of the seer. Things weren't looking good for the village, and she'd rather knot think about it. Oh nine were these puns infectious. Serious mode, go. "What are we going to do now?"

Dar'Kota sighed, "Such a pretty face torn apart. Would have been better in a different way." He snerked a bit as he looked around at everyone, trying to figure out who it could have been thats the werewolves.
"Its too bad her talents being what they were made for fun times in the village. Now we must punish those who would take away our protection and sources of enjoyment." But who were they? He had a suspicion but wasn't sure and he didn't want to hang an innocent but in order to win they needed to hang people.

 Naosu looked around at everyone. "We just lost our Seer?" She queried. "Ohh...." She wrapped her arms around herself. "The wolves are very much not loff! They're going to eat us all! Who's going to protect the village now?"

Usha gasped dramatically and pointed at the 'body' of Aurianna. Who had apparently been their Seer. "How could we be so wrong!" She had turned to address the rest of the group and missed Auri moving around behind her until she heard the moaning and she barely suppressed her laughter. "Awful," she said instead, trying not to snicker. "Right! Well. We were wrong, and killed an innocent. Boo hoo." She rubbed at one eye to show that she was 'crying.' Yeah, acting definitely wasn't her thing. "Who's next?" she said with a smirk, letting the rest of them decide what she meant by that.

Tobias couldn't help but nervously press closer to Usha. The Seer? What had she said before her death..... was there anything useful he could pull from the few words she had spoken? Tobias frowned, scrunching his face in thought. No. She had mentioned taking revenge, yes, but... what else? Perhaps he was missing something?
"Did Aurianna say anything about other players?" He asked, voice soft in the confusion.

"Yes! The town cried. It has to be the butcher! Why, the bodies were torn to shreds, obviously it was someone that knew how to slaughter. Her hands were practically covered in blood all the time anyway! Raleka was dragged to the block, though the noose was obviously not knotted as well as a knot could be, a half hitch? A square? Who cares! As long as it had a dangly loop bit right?
Though now that Raleka had her head through and the rope lay loose around her like some morbid necklace the crowd hushed, letting her speak."
