Board Thread:What Would You Do?/@comment-44464716-20200107035054/@comment-44464716-20200109035801

First, just out of pure curiosity, I ask how they managed to get a sandworm onto the stage. The presenter just shrugs.

"We had to do a lot of tunneling and put in a very expensive custom trap door. I'd rather not say any more than that."

With that out of the way, I consider my three options: I definitely don't want to go for the lich; not a fan of anything undead, and I'd rather not be married to the tongue of a giant worm, so the sandworm's out. The automaton looks nice, but she seems a bit... emotionless. I decide to ask the four questions, then decide if I will pick her or try to find an escape route.

"Um..." I say as I try to pick the first question, "We have been married for eight years. How would you want to balance work, fun, and raising the kids?"

"Not applicable" The automaton drones. "There would be no kids for rather obvious reasons" the lich states. "The young worms would already be out on their own." The sandworm grins.

Yeah. I figured that wouldn't get me any good answers. I keep asking; ignoring the lich's and sandworm's answers since I know I won't pick them. This time, I try to see if I can get an even remotely emotional response.

"I have been diagnosed with a disease that makes me irresistible to all mamono. What would you do?"

"Bzzt. I would initiate bodyguard protocol: I would isolate you in a secure area for your safety." She then turns to face me, and she gives the closest thing she could to a smirk. It was strangely appealing. "With me at your side the whole time."

Interesting. I keep going; asking two more questions from the sheet. I find myself increasingly considering the automaton, so, at the end of it, I pick her.
