THE MASTERMIND AU
NICK V. CN EDITION

It's time for Nick vs. CN's mastermind meme!

To those who aren't familiar, this is essentially an AU where your character is the one responsible for Nick v CN's Mutual Killing Game, and all of the carnage that came with it, from the kidnapping to the motives to the trials to the executions! And now, they have chosen to reveal themselves before the remaining members of their class at the final trial!

As such, you are free to play around with this as much as you would like; was your character just another pawn in the grand scheme of things, or did your character put everyone in the Killing Game for a different reason? What is your character's motivation for bringing despair? What do they intend to get out of this seemingly senseless killing? And what does the rest of the class have to do to stop the madness and go home?

There's probably going to be quite a bit of AUing from your character's original canon happening here to make them into the best harbingers of despair they can be, so feel free to go as nuts with it as you want to! And, of course, feel free to tag others with your character's reaction to their classmate's big reveal; it doesn't matter whether or not your character made it to endgame, have fun and mix up the survivor pool as much as you'd like!

Oh, and feel free to describe your character's sweet new Monobear-themed duds, too!!

[ The television flicks on, and at first... nothing. Huh. Looks like the control room monitor got switched on by itsel---

Nope, scratch that. There's a blue dog peeking over the edge of the desk. How'd she get in there? She jumps onto the chair and kicks away the ball that was just sitting there minding its own business.

Awww, how cute! But surely she can't be... ]

Baroo? Arf, bark bark arf!

[ Huh. Guess she is. Blue holds up your STUDENT HANDBOOK and points to it. ]

Bark bark! Aroo, bark arf arf bark!

[ Wow, Blue sure seems like she means business. But whatever could she want? ]

Bark bark?

[ There's no possible way of knowing. Not unless she--

Blue jumps off the chair and launches at the screen, paw outstretched. When she hits it, it leaves a blue pawprint on the screen.

Oh!! She probably wants us to play Blue's Clues! ]



STUDENT HANDBOOK RULES
Rule 1 Students must find all three clues that Blue has left hidden in her house!
Rule 2 Once the students have found all three clues, they must use the thinking chair to figure out what it is that Blue wants to do!
Rule 3 Students must sing while moving between rooms.

KITCHEN

[bedazzledbellybutton]

[He's confused. He didn't expect this at all. But he read the rules, so-]

Searching through rooms,
Looking for clues,
I don't get why a cute blue puppy's the bad guy....

[whoseclues]

[ Good song, Steven!

The kitchen has yellow walls with orange designs on them. There's a sink with a dish rack next to it, and a window to let in the cool breeze. There's also a bowl on the countertop. ]

[bedazzledbellybutton]

[Well, let's start with the bowl. Is there something in it?]

[whoseclues]

[ Hmm. There's a book open to a recipe for cake, and a few ingredients next to the bowl. It doesn't look like they finished the recipe, though.

Maybe we should help them out? ]

[bedazzledbellybutton]

[Oh! Well, he has baked a cake before. What does the book say is left to do?]

[whoseclues]

[ The book has a picture of a cake in it, along with many other desserts.

It's really not the most helpful cookbook. ]

[bedazzledbellybutton]

[.....Um... Okay. What ingredients have already been used?]

[whoseclues]

[ The bowl has a few dry ingredients in it but is still mostly empty!

There's several other ingredients that look like they haven't been used, sitting next to the bowl. ]

[bedazzledbellybutton]

[Are they all cake ingredients? Or are there some decidedly not cake ingredients there?]

[whoseclues]

[ Hmm... Looks like it's a mix of both! We'll have to help decide which ingredients to use.

Which of these three items should we use?

One | Two | Three ]

[bedazzledbellybutton]

[Well, one, of course. You know, since flour is... actually safe to eat.]

[whoseclues]

[ That sounds like a good idea! Let's go ahead and add that.

Hmm... so, which one of these do you think is best?

One| Two | Three ]

[bedazzledbellybutton]

[Who would want to eat a sock-flavored cake? Let's go ahead and pick two: eggs.]

[whoseclues]

[ Two it is! You're really good at this, Steven!

Looks like there's only three more ingredients to choose from. Do you know which of these is right?

One | Two | Three

[bedazzledbellybutton]

[Oh boy, three! He loves chocolate cake!]

[whoseclues]

[ And now it's done! Good job! Mm, that cake looks delicious. We should pour it into a cakepan and stick it in the oven. There's gotta be one around here somewhere. ]

[bedazzledbellybutton]

[Sounds good! Let's search through the cabinets for one! Or if not there, the dish rack]

BEDROOM

[whoseclues]

[misseinstein]

[This is sick. This is REALLY sick. Is this dog being used? Is this dog actually the mastermind? Who gets their cheap thrills from subjecting people to a murdergame and then turning the last trial into a goddamn I Spy book?

- Oh, right, the uh, the rules. Might as well, you know, follow them. In case they're executed on site for not doing so.]

Oooooooh~
The bedroom is...the place to be?
Looking for clues one, two, and three,
Where oh where, where oh where,
Where oh where could they...be?

[...You tried, Aelita. You tried.]

OUTSIDE

[whoseclues]

[babyhater]

[Well, Panda can't say he was ever the biggest fan of dogs but now he really doesn't like them.

Panda goes outside, mainly because he needed fresh air but hey there might be clues too.]

Oh I hate all of this
Why is this dog blue?
Why is she forcing us to sing?
But at least I can go outsiiiide~?

[It can barely even be considered a song.]

[snapsnapsnap]

...

I detest dogs.

[whoseclues]

Baroo barr? [ Aww, Blue too? Headtilt and a sad little doggy frown for you, Katz! ]
