[Hopefully no one is surprised to see the sight of a skeleton back on the network, one that is probably the same one as always. Though this time any mirth and amusement has died out to look... almost bored. In the background is the familiar garish sight of a raffle wheel and another skeletal figure. Along with yet another body that has probably been through the same amount as ones before.
Which is why she's merely sighing, voice once again magically modulated in an attempt to be as unfamiliar as possible to her normal.]
I was going to make some grand gesture about how Everglade's guardian is another in a long line of those willing to look the other way and remain as status quo as possible, but that’s so... cliche and boring at this point, isn't it?
[All that fervor and heat from before is just... gone.]
I’ll put it this way, I'm-- we're bored.
[The other skeleton decided to pipe in here.]
After all, there are only so many of these fake people that we can play with before things get old. So we're opening up our little game to some new players~ If any care to show up anyway~
[He gets close to the other skeleton and, more importantly, the camera as he talked. His inability to be sincere or even acted showed through here as he he was a bit more animated than his sister, as though trying to overly demonstrate his boredom.]
[Oh, she's biting back a laugh at that, a bony hand covering her mouth.]
As he said, we're... looking for some people that might be interested in playing with us~ It’s a fair enough game, I think. You find us, you play a few of our games to show us just how much you're willing to sacrifice in order to win whatever you name, and if you manage to get through them... Then you win. Simple enough and just that straightforward. The only catch to it is that, well, if you don’t say stop then we don't guarantee you'll make it out alive or with your sanity intact. Just a danger of the game, after all.
[She's glancing over to her brother and just grinning at him.]
Did you have anything else to add?
[He is grinning right back.]
Not really. Just... Come and get us, baby~

There's only one way to settle those sorts of concerns and I'm afraid that it's something we'd have to do ourselves. But for now, we're honestly just content in the Guardian and her Deputies keeping their noses out of our game~ It's completely on the up-and-up, you see, people will know the risks before they play~ [She's far too fucking good at lying, honestly.]

I don't know if it's entirely legal to gamble with people's safety. So maybe I should stay on stand-by, in case things get ugly? [dumb smile.] As for your concerns, I appreciate that maybe you don't have faith in the system here. But I'm sure we can do something to help address your concerns, and fix things together.

Gambling isn't illegal here, I don't believe. And if someone has been informed of the dangers and continues to play, then that's a legal issue on their end, not our's. They were told and they decided to do it anyway~
Trust me, this is something we've done before and we've never had problems with it before. We may look all mean and scary, but this game is just amusement all around~ The only way someone gets hurt is if they don't know their limitations or choose to go that route. We don't force it on them. [All lies, but she's not about to tell the truth.]
no subject
In fact, we try to warn them if we think they might be going to far~ The warning we gave here is like...The release of liability that people have to sign to go to a rock climbing gym. And our game is no more dangerous than that if people play it well!
