After escaping your rooms, talking with others, swiping your Ambidex Room cards, and entering, Calhoun appears on the screen to very briefly explain how the AB Voting works (45 minutes to either choose to Ally or Betray, you gain/lose points depending on what your opponent chooses), but to also introduce this round's prizes.

That's right, this round has a whole new set of prizes! They're a bit different from the last round, so listen carefully!

For anyone who chooses Betray, they will be getting a standard first aid kit and a can of food. Calhoun noticed that some of you managed to hurt themselves in the puzzle rooms, so he highly encourages you to take advantage of this one-time opportunity for free medical supplies!

For anyone who chooses Betray and their opponent chooses Ally, you will get a memory regain instead of a can of food! After all, you'll have access to the cafeteria so it won't really be necessary. ~~Unless your name is Clive Dove.~~

For anyone who chooses Ally, well, if your opponent chooses Ally as well, not only will all of your BP increase, you'll even get a gold star of friendship! Doesn't that sound wonderful?

If you're the poor sap that chose Ally and got stabbed in the back, well, sorry, you only lose BP, but maybe Calhoun will have something for you. He likes all of his test subjects, so he won't forget anyone here.

But anyway, happy voting! Calhoun will see all of you later with the results.

[Hershel's a little shocked Light can tell, before he realizes yeah, he's been a bit unsteady on his feet. Being stabbed is hard. Still, realizing it was Hershel from that alone is pretty damn cool.]

Ah, hello Light. [He had a feeling Heiji was in trouble soon if not already...] There was um- an accident in the puzzle room, or more a trap. Heiji, Jake and I got hit by it, it was... unpleasant.

Oh really. I told him to be careful in that room. Which one did you trigger? We managed to get all of them. *It's how he burned his fingers.*

He was on the other side of the room when it happened. [Jake's the culprit here, Mr. Force the Puzzle.] Two set off, one screamed and shot this disgusting liquid out, the other...

[He glances at his bloodstained sleeve, suppressing a sigh.] The other shot small knives out. We all got hit, unfortunately.

You all got...*Wait, just give him a moment to process that information. They -- meaning himself, Zelos and Ema -- were all lucky as hell they weren't hit. Mostly because he'd already triggered one and it'd made them wary.* You all got stabbed?

[Hershel sounds a bit sheepish now.] Um, yes. Jake got stabbed in the forearm, I got hit in the upper arm and Heiji got hit in the leg- it's not all that bad, I mean, it's not wonderful by any means and-

[He's still a little bit shaken from the whole experience even if he felt much more calm about it. He sighs and tries again.] We took them out, bandaged up... I think everything will be ok, as long as we're careful about it.

You idiots. *He doesn't care that much about Jake but he doesn't want to see people get stabbed in this game either.* Well, as long as everyone is more or less in one piece. I take it you didn't trigger what Zelos said was the red doll.

Ah, sorry... [He actually feels pretty bad, it wasn't like a few people hadn't vaguely warned them about this. Admittedly he doubted he could have stopped Jake anyway but still.] No, that's the one we got right. I'm glad, dealing with a burn would be pretty difficult here, it'd be very easy to get an infection...

[Snake. Of course he still doesn't know you were burned.] It's a shame we couldn't speak to Jake ahead of time, if we could all have planned to pick betray the first aid and food probably would have been more useful.

*Oh believe you me, he's been attending to his fingers and they are better now. They just have red marks where skin might be starting to peel.*

Most likely, but what's done is done. Are you actually all right?

[good, because burns suck snake 8(]

[Hershel hesitates, because if he was being entirely honest no, he really wasn't alright. Being stabbed was beyond bizarre, he was fairly certain he was a normal kid and things like that just didn't happen. Suddenly the game became even grimmer and more dire, knowing how close they had been to being stabbed somewhere truly dangerous, like the neck or an artery, and hearing Calhoun talk about how they could be replaced is they died-]

[Yeah, he was certainly not alright, and he probably pauses long enough to make that very apparent, but Light had his own problems to deal with and Hershel felt it would be childish to worry anyone here just because his nerves were twisted. So he makes an effort to smile, even if Light wouldn't see it, as he spoke.]

I'm alright, I'm going to be very careful so hopefully it will heal on it's own. [He glances down.] You should be more worried about Heiji and Jake, they aren't taking this as seriously as I wish they would. Um, would you maybe tell Heiji to take it easy? I already have but you two seem pretty friendly, he'll probably listen to your opinion with a lot of respect.

Not that he wouldn't with me, just you know, he seems stubborn...

That sounds about right for him. I'll see what I can do. *After he yells at him in another thread.*

[Good man, Snake, good man. Hershel sounds legitimately grateful.] Thank you. Heiji is... a good person. I think he worries too much about other people sometimes and forgets himself.
