Hi. Amethyst has been playing really strangely. I don't think that's a secret.

Don't think you can take advantage of that to avoid me considering you as well.

[noisecontrol]

Fine.

Did Amethyst try to push you guys around, too?

[thinkoutsidethebox]

They approached us privately yesterday, but none of us had enough time to speak with them. So, they weren't given the opportunity.

[noisecontrol]

That's not surprising. I wonder why they waited with you.

[thinkoutsidethebox]

Well, it's true we haven't been strong presences thus far. It's interesting to me that they spoke privately with people not in the clues at all.

[noisecontrol]

For us, it's because they said they knew Vanilla and Dio. But then they just tried pushing us around.

[thinkoutsidethebox]

How, precisely, did they "push you around"?

[noisecontrol]

They were telling us how to vote. To make sure the teams they found suspicious went up. They did it from right after the clue was named.

[thinkoutsidethebox]

And those teams were Coral and Peridot...?

[noisecontrol]

No. She wanted up Coral and Tiger's Eye.

[thinkoutsidethebox]

I see. Well, I can't judge that too harshly, since those were the teams I wanted up as well.

[noisecontrol]

It's fine if that's what you wanted, but you didn't contact a bunch of teams pushing for it.

[thinkoutsidethebox]

Jasper's not really as much of a team player.

[heirbrained]

It's also no secret that you have been speaking privately with multiple teams over the course of the game, but waited until now to seek contact with us.

[noisecontrol]

We've only opened posts with people in clues. Amethyst opened the one to us.

[heirbrained]

Have you gleaned anything of interest?

[unguilded]

They were pretty set on their choices for voting and have been a bit on the pushy side not only to us, but a few other teams. I talked to Luna pretty early on, and it was the case from near the start, even though it was slightly tougher to make completely solid choices back then.

[heirbrained]

So it is that confidence which you find suspect?

[noisecontrol]

Apparently, they pushed around Peridot, too. And what they found suspicious about Coral wasn't even there. That guy from Peridot mentioned it in public just now.

[heirbrained]

Why would a mouse need to be so "pushy"?

[noisecontrol]

Why would a child be so pushy?

[heirbrained]

A child at least has a more desperate need to collect information.

[noisecontrol]

They weren't collecting information. They had the information already. They didn't really ask us any questions.

[heirbrained]

That describes you exactly in our current discussion. So, if I followed your logic, you are equally suspicious.

[noisecontrol]

If that's how you see it. We've been dealing with them. I'm convinced now that Amethyst was trying to make Peridot look suspicious. It failed.

[heirbrained]

Did it? You certainly seemed to think Peridot was suspicious. You risked the ending of the game on it.
