PEACE WEEKEND

[It's your first week here, and you've been offered a fantastic prize for killing someone: an all-expense paid vacation! It's a pretty standard prize as far as reality game shows go.

Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), this isn't exactly a game show.

It seems that no one has died this weekend, and the deadline for the prize is now expired. There's no announcement from the Overseers to that effect; in fact, none of you have seen either of them since Tuesday. Maybe they'll make a reappearance soon, but for now, it seems that you've got a moment of peace.

Hopefully nothing happens to it.]

Miss Lucina's right. Huntsmen and Huntresses usually work in teams for exactly that reason. I'd hope no one would miss the chance for ALL of us to escape because they didn't trust us.

How many Huntsmen are usually in one group? What happens if one of them is a liability and not an asset? "Strength in numbers" works in theory, but the reality is that a group is only as strong as its members. I'm surprised no one felt like more of us were liabilities than assets, that's all.
in4apounding: (well that's just improbable)

Like if one teammate is injured? The others come together to support them to minimize the liability.

No. I mean what happens if one of them just isn't very good at their job.

Oh, then they wouldn't qualify to be a Huntsmen or Huntress in the first place. The training process is VERY rigorous.

I see.

You'll notice that whatever qualified us to be here is a mystery, though. There's no guarantee of competence, like there would be for your Huntsmen.
andjerry: (this is fine.)

...you're right. Lone vigilantes don't get very far. It takes a whole team to bring someone to justice.
