Round 4: confessions camera

[foundationmods]

This is where you can post anything your character says in the confessions camera room. The room is soundproof, and nobody on-site will be able to see or hear anything they say in there. Everyone outside of the site will see what is said, though.

We're keeping this post unlocked so everyone can see, since previous round characters will be able to see anything said here. Just remember that stuff mentioned in here won't be known to characters participating in the round unless the character tells someone about it outside of the confession room.

Silver confessions

[iblistriggered]

Week 1 - Thursday Evening

[iblistriggered]

[Silver looks a little disheveled as he walks in and takes a seat -- like he just woke up. Indeed, he yawns gapingly for the camera]

Ahhh... Sorry. I just woke up from a nap. I decided that I'm going to stay up tonight... it's the deadline for someone to murder. [Silver's ears droop a bit] Some of the others are also patrolling to make sure nothing goes wrong, so I'm hoping that it'll be a quiet night. I'm hoping no one will take them up on such a dumb offer... [he shakes his head] I'm gonna need a lot of coffee to stay up until morning.

I guess... that's all. I'll be watching the outside of the house if any of you guys want to watch me... If I start drifting off, yell really loud so I wake up, ok?

[a joke??? he tried]

Week 1 - Saturday Evening

[iblistriggered]

[Silver all but collapses in the chair before he starts talking]

... Phew....

I almost can't believe it. We managed to get through the week with a motive like that AND a death game without anyone dying, or even getting seriously hurt! But we can't rest on our laurels... we have to do the same thing next week, and the week after next, until this farce of a game is over.

[Silver doesn't seem as cheerful as you might expect, given their flawless victory...]

... I dunno. You guys out there watching... those of you who didn't come from 6350... What do you think? Do you really think we're dangerous monsters who should be contained, or killed outright? I hope maybe what you've seen so far will help... but we are people, just like you! We may look different, or have strange powers... but we didn't ask to be here. And I know... for me at least, I want to help this world...! So... please give us a chance.

... That's all for tonight, I think...

Week 3 - Wednesday Early morning

[iblistriggered]

[Silver plops in the chair. It's some ungodly early hour -- 5 am, by the time stamps. He's missing his gloves, and his quills are pretty bedhead-y]

I went to bed really early. Like seven-ish, I guess. I woke up about half an hour ago and I can't go back to sleep. I'm... I don't know. I guess I'm lonely. I'm the only person like me here in this house. Heck. Maybe in the whole Foundation! After all, I didn't get any pictures of Blaze or Sonic or Espio or anyone in my stack. [he gestures to the camera] You guys out there... do you even think of me as a person? At least a lot of the others from 6350 are, or at least look like, humans. What am I, to all of you...?

[Silver frowns, looking down at his hands in his lap]

What am I to anyone here...? I thought, maybe, by being in this new world, this new timeline, I could matter. I could change things and actually reap the benefits of what I've done!

But it's the same as it ever was. The Foundation just wants to use me. Everyone is making close friends and more here -- love springing forth on the battlefield, huh? And I'm still just.... watching. I've been here a year and I've made... one friend? What's wrong with me.

[he wraps his arms around his shoulders]

There's probably a game today, so I have to put on a happy face. I can't let them see me falter. More people might die... [he grumbles and scrubs his face with his hands, then smooths back his quills] I'm really rambling, aren't I? I'm used to talking to myself, though. I'm better at that than anything. I'm sure they'll edit this, nobody wants to hear me whine. [a small, forced smile]

I guess I should try and get a nap in before the game later. ... Thanks for listening, camera.

Week 4- Saturday -- CW suicidal ideation

[iblistriggered]

[Silver just sits in front of the camera for a while, his head in his hands. He's not crying this time! Wow! He seems to be... just enjoying the silence of the room, the lock on the door, the privacy. After about five minutes, he laces his fingers together and rests his muzzle on them, looking away]

I can honestly say. Before this House. Before this game. I can say I never thought about wanting to die. I've thought about it almost every day for the last two weeks.

.... and I'm not sure why I'm not more upset about that.

[he shakes his head]

After what happened today... we're doomed for sure, aren't we? And yet I don't care. I just don't. Giriko was right after all -- people are bad. Maybe not all of them. But most of them.

[he finally does look at the camera]

Well. Is this what you wanted?
