[mock week] CAPTAIN CONTACT

[15unknowns]

In the smartphones you were given, it seems there is an option to call the cockpit... how unorthodox. Do you dare to bother the pilot?

What, you didn't figure out a game like this was zero sum before you did some shit? If I wasn't planning to pick off any more hostages, there would be no point to me saying yours were safer than anyone else's at the end, right?

Then again! You still have to get away with it for me to not change my mind eventually...... better not pussy out. There's still what happens to whoever gets voted for... That part's not just for shits and giggles, for your information.

[...fuck.

Fuck.

The thought hadn't occurred to him that he would be killing any more people than one. Now he's not responsible for a single tragedy but for multiples.

Haha... ha.. he.. did it, and there's... no fucking coming back from this, ever.

[It's awhile before he manages to respond.]

I played my part in your sick little game... so leave everyone else's hostages alone.

You want me to break my own rules, that I painstakingly created?

[He chuckles darkly, reveling in the truth that there was actually no pain or stakes to him at all.]

You ain't fucking special, even if you're a little smarter than everyone else who didn't play ball.

But I'm not completely unreasonable. I tell you what. You see this shit through, get someone else out in your place, and I'll consider it for the rest of the flight.

[His face twists into a snarl as the pilot talks, though at the last part, his eyes widen slightly. His face falls into a blank expression.

There's silence, for awhile... and then, without saying or doing anything else, cuts the connection.]
