Chop chop, everyone downstairs to the first floor! You're all done the puzzle rooms, so you know what to do. Well, most of you, but it's pretty basic, just enter any Ambidex Room you like (they're not elevators, you ignorant test subjects) then vote! How does voting work? Very simple! Pick Ally or Betray, and that's it! But with every round, there's always some prizes, depending on what you vote, so here's this rounds:

For anyone who chooses Ally, well, if your opponent chooses Ally as well, then 2BP for each of you. You get all that friendship, blah blah, whatever.

For anyone who chooses Betray, and gets a Betray in return, your BP doesn't change at all, but you do get two cans of food and 15 coins for each person, what, you have a problem with it being the same as last time? We're busy over here, quit your bellyaching.

Now, the best part: for anyone who chooses Betray and their opponent chooses Ally, Calhoun will be very generous with his prizes, again! You'll get two cans of food and a memory! We're switching it up a bit. Also, as usual, those who pick Betray get 3BP instead of just 2.

But if you're the poor sap that chose Ally and got stabbed in the back, well, sorry, you lose 2 BP. At least you got stabbed for the greater good, right? And plus, you might get a little something. He'll talk to you later about it.

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

"Hardly even stealin'," said Heiji under his breath, probably because he felt just a little bit bad about it even though what Zero and Calhoun had done to them was way worse.

"Part of one, yeah. Didn't think we had any trombone players around. Maybe I could use the other parts for somethin'. Mostly I just wanted the case, though."

Why? What are you going to do with a case other than store things in it?

"Well, that's exactly what I'm usin' it for. I've got way too much stuff, so I needed something convenient to carry it in. Cut up the upholstery inside, too, so there's more room."

How much stuff did Heiji have in there, anyway...?

"The smaller stuff I can just carry around in my pockets, in case something happens. Especially in them puzzle rooms. Never know when someone's going to get antsy and try to smash somethin'."

*Wait, what?* How did you accumulate so many things? Are you like one of those characters that carries more gold than most countries and 99 potions?

"Well, I don't know about potions, but I do pick up some stuff," said Heiji, just a little defensively. "I mean, if it's useful and it's just lyin' around. Might as well, right? Like what else are they gonna do with it?"

Oh, hold on a second. "You like RPGs or somethin'?"

I'm not sure. I can't exactly play them but...perhaps if someone else is playing them and they explain the story to me, I at least can follow along.

Heiji lifted his cap to brush the bangs out of his face. "Yeah? I dunno, seems like kind of a waste of time to me. I mean, I guess it'd be fun to play for a little bit, but it's more fun to go head-to-head with an opponent, and I think most of those you play by yourself. I guess that Calhoun Party thing was okay..."

Fortunately I could play along because I had a map. Otherwise it's a bit of entertainment that I can't participate in.

"Well, if you're interested in role-playing or whatever, don't they have some that aren't video games? Like you make up characters and do stuff based on dice."

You know, nerdy things. Not like detective work, which was not nerdy at all.

"...But I guess a lot of stuff just ain't made with people who can't see in mind."

I believe there is something like that out there, I assume. If you get figures with it, more the better.

No, not really. *It's a fact he's most likely learned to deal with. He assumes.* It does make me wonder if that's why I like reading so much. Or listening to the contents of a book. It is something I can do.

"Yeah..." Heiji rubbed the back of his neck, looking away as he did so.

"So, um. Speakin' of which, I think we still have a couple magazines we haven't read. You know, if ya wanted to do that sometime."

Oh. *That kind of takes him off guard.* Of course, we can do that whenever there's time.

Heiji beamed at Snake. "Then let's do it after dinner. Shouldn't be anything else comin' up for a little while, at least!"
