SHADOW GAME - ROCK PAPER SCISSORS

[wooliefrand]

[It's Dark.

Clover and the Weeds are in a glass orb. A hand symbol is marked on the glass. A fist emblem is on their glass. Rock.

Ceo also finds himself in an orb, looking around alarmed, growling. A hand with two fingers up is on his glass. Scissors.

And finally. . .

This little guy is in an orb. A hand symbol is on his glass as well--fingers spread wide. Paper.

The Gambler Demon hovers above them all, skull curled into a casual grin.]

Looks like ya found my guy! But I couldn't help but test ya again. A simple game, winner takes all.

Rock, paper scissors.

I'll show ya three memories. You decide which is the Rock, which is the Paper, and which is Scissors.

Then ya match up which memory would *beat* your hand.

Simple enough, yeah?

Let's go.

[IN SIMPLE TERMS:
Clover is Rock, Ceo is Scissors, and ??? is Paper. Find the memories that their 'hand' would beat and pair them up. There's a clue in each memory!]

MEMORIES

[wooliefrand]

MEMORY ONE - A Flock garbed in green--some are familiar faces, some long gone. It's a warm, starry summer night, and the trees are lined with wishes. Each of them have someone waiting for them for the festivities. Perhaps someone in blue, someone in white, or yellow. To each friend, they spread their hands, waving enthusiastically.

It's a good night.

MEMORY TWO - Someone dressed in Clover garb, a pasture full of lush greenery. . .but the mist isn't far off. In these uncertain times, it's his job to protect his own, isn't it? He knows the others are trying, they're trying so hard, but desperate times call for desperate measures.

He uses his blood to draw a familiar rune. The gambler demon appears. When asked what he'd wager for this to work, the figure holds up two fingers. His eye, and something else.

MEMORY THREE - Wolves. They're all hard at work, carefully crafting masks, testing them. Some work, some don't. Their leader sits away from them, frustrated, going over papers. It's not enough. It keeps the madness at bay, but it's not enough. What are they missing? Is it the last Holy Beast? If only they could catch it. Why are they being so selfish?! He punches down on a mask so hard it shatters, his fist bloody. A sigh and he wipes it off, noting to put it back into production.

They can't waste even a single resource.

Hey!

They might be useful, give them a chance!

Re: ANSWER/DISCUSS

[eonsadrift]

...it's way too easy to go by the symbols on the glass.

I think the owners of the memories are obvious, but it seems like each memory has a different hand signal. So the first one is "paper", the second one is "scissors", and the third is "rock". That's how we decide which memory beats which.

Re: ANSWER/DISCUSS

[psynchroneyes]

Oh.. oooh!

Then the answer is easy from there!

Re: ANSWER/DISCUSS

[eonsadrift]

Exactly, so...

Memory one: Clover Flock, Paper beats rock.
Memory two: Useless Priest, Scissors beats paper.
Memory three: Ceo, Rock beats scissors.

That should be the answer.
