15 Strangers Round AU Meme

15 STRANGERS ROUND AU MEME


Hello everyone! Not exactly that time again, but we’ve got a treat for you today! The Round AU Meme! Essentially, remember those times where you asked ‘What if I’d brought Person X to Round Y?’ Well, here’s where you can answer that question, with prompts for each round and Mock Weeks 2 and 3. We hope you’ll enjoy!



1. Ungodly Magics & Mysteries
You know your day is going to be awful when you wake up on a stone slab instead of a bed. Worse still, it looks like nothing here is past medieval times, in terms of style and tech. Maybe a potion or a sweet roll will get your mind off of this murder business added to the mix.

2. Mall Murder Mania
You’ve probably never been passed out in a mall, and even if you did, it’s very unlikely you’d been trapped inside afterwards, told by a young girl to kill to leave. Maybe the fifteen of you can figure out what’s going on in this seemingly abandoned mall.

3. A Fantastic Voyage
The technology here is so…odd. The entire place just seems off, no matter when you’re from. Then there’s that loud, obnoxious woman telling everyone to kill each other. With how grating her voice is, maybe you should prepare for someone killing to get away from her.

4. Snakes In Plane Sight
Is this a joke? On a plane, headed who knows where, with who knows how many snakes on board, and more dead bodies than you needed to see in your lifetime. And your pilot wants you to add to their number. You might need magic if you want everyone here to survive.

5. Soul-Sapping Situations
This mansion is awful. Rooms like caskets, dust and spiders everywhere, the fact that you were brought unwillingly-and the rules about murder didn’t help things. The entire situation is a disaster, and you can only hope that you and the others don’t lose your minds.

6. Off The Rails
A chance to explore the deepest recesses of space, the final frontier…and instead, you’re on a train with fourteen others being made to kill each other. No one among the locals cares when you ask for help. Such a hopeless situation, you may as well gaze at the beautiful sun above.

7. Home Sweet Homicide
You and fourteen others in a house in space, trapped by an evil A.I. It wants you to kill each other, but when there’s so little room? Seems impossible, if you don’t want to get caught. Let’s hope no one proves that thought wrong…

8. The American Nightmare
A town with no people, other than your fellow captives. This isn’t the first time that this has happened to you, and the same goes for everyone else. And yet, you hesitate to trust the others…probably reasonable. You all know how this goes, after all.

[That confession actually gets her to quiet down for a bit. For a relatively long time, she just doesn't say anything.]

...he lied to me about it, when I first saw him on the train. I'm glad that you got help, but I can't believe he's actually sorry when he continues to hide it and hang around Minato. And...you know Minato won't get angry about anything. So I'm going to be angry for him, until he's willing to show anger himself.

And what would you've done if he admitted to it? Would you've been accepting and welcoming to him, putting it aside because he admitted to what he did? Or would you've been more hostile to him? Sniping at every comment he makes and accusing him of every murder where he's on the suspect list, no matter how much it doesn't make sense?

[He has a good feeling he already knows the answer to that one. As for the other part...]

Maybe not, but then why would he bother trying to be better? If Minato just forgives him instantly, why is he still trying to be a good person? He has the chance to be completely forgiven, not feel any remorse, and go through this staying by himself and not getting involved when he doesn't have to.

But he doesn't. He gets involved, and he helps, and he tries to be a better person, because he is a better person. He is a good person. He regrets what he did to Minato, and he tries his best to be someone better, for him, because he wants to.

But I guess that doesn't matter to some people, does it?

I'd have-ngh-gotten a better idea of what he was willing to do! If he's already willing to lie about murdering someone twice, then what more would he be willing to lie about? It was perfectly rea-ngh-sonable for me to think he'd kill someone again! If he was really trying to be better, he'd be open about what he'd done wrong! He's just like-just like-ngh! [She groans at the headache she's suddenly feeling. Who's she so mad at? Why can't she remember?]
unwittingking: (It's too hard to choose one though)

[personal profile] unwittingking 2020-03-27 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, so you would've been prepared to accuse him again, I understand now.

[He sighs, feeling both frustrated and sad. Arguing with a girl that's been stabbed and is on the floor probably bleeding out isn't exactly fulfilling, let alone satisfying. At this point? He just wants this to end already.]

Stop. You're not going to convince me he's a bad person, or that you're somehow the better person after doing stuff like this [Holding up the still knifed paw] and would be willing to kill at least half of us out of revenge. There's no use having an aneurism over it.

I'm going to keep thinking Caleb's a good person after this, because he is a good person. And I'll remember you as morally ambiguous at best. Because I talked to him and got to know him. I may not have known him long, but I'm sure he wouldn't try to hurt anyone here. He won't fall for it again.

I'm not asking you to believe it, because I'm pretty sure you just have a one track mind on him now. You won't believe anything positive about him, no matter what. But I'm asking you...just stop. We know what he did, and we won't let it happen again.

Just...let it be.
telecosmetic: (you don't know me)

When-hngh-did I say that? I never claimed to be the better person! Just that he's just as bad as me. All of you who voted for Zack are also terrible! But-damnit-why couldn't you let me have that one thing at least? Do you really think I wasn't ready to die if I could at least-gchk-take him down with me? [Her fingers twitch against the floor, but she doesn't have the leverage to push herself upright again.]

Because I'm not letting my friend die. Plain and simple. If that means I need surgery or something, I'll deal with that later.

Maybe I am a terrible person. But I'm not horrible enough that I'd let my friends die when I have the chance to stop it.

[Why do you think he tried to keep Koel from killing you, Eliza?]
telecosmetic: (shut up)

[personal profile] telecosmetic 2020-03-27 03:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[Tried? He hasn't even stuck his arm between Koel's knife like he did for Caleb.]

Then why didn't you just vote for me? Either way you're letting someone die! It all comes down to you thinking Zack's more expendable, doesn't it?
unwittingking: (...what)

[personal profile] unwittingking 2020-03-27 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[And instead argued for her being spared. Because at that range, with Koel? Trying to block that would just be pointless.]

I’m sorry, are you trying to say there’s an option where no one else dies? Here, when we had the option of either voting for someone to die or being killed because we didn’t vote?

Someone was going to die. All I did was try to have mercy and not kill a kid that wanted to keep her family safe. Something I can sympathize with, if you couldn’t tell from how I reacted to the motives.

This wasn’t “Who’s expendable?” here. This was “Who’s willing to keep you alive by dying for you?”

[If it makes you feel better Eliza? He’s starting to think he made the wrong choice.]
