[This report recounts the murder mystery game. The optimism from the previous game is already gone, as by now Doll has done her murder Live. The writer knew that, no matter what, BARiTONES would be sacrificed. Yvette and Codex hatch a plot to tell a lie and work hard to sell it as the truth, and the writer agrees.
By whatever twist, though, the writer is never called on to lie. There's notable mentions about a conversation with Intensity where, trading barbs, she says she'll tie his and her fate together. There's also a favourable mention of Erika and how hard she's working to organize everyone.
Someone takes a poll to find out which teams have the most people so the teams to be sacrificed could be the ones with fewer to "lessen" the casualties. The writer notes that BARiTONES has one of the higher numbers present.
The writer decides that, if the targets are being honest, if it's really about saving people, then it doesn't matter if they lie because they shouldn't be one of the teams put up and it won't do any harm. Really, voting for BARiTONES means they deserve it for their duplicity. And sure enough, they vote for BARiTONES -- the unit survives, but per the rules of the game, they get to save a doomed team. No one else has a strong opinion again, and the writer asks for Future is Now. The report notes her reasoning: that she hadn't told a single lie all game, and didn't want her promise (a jest though it was) to tie their units' fates to be her first. She also feels that, with how hard Erika tried, FiN probably deserves to survive.
This game is flagged as important. It stands for a belief in the dishonesty of the community.]
