[One moment, you're chatting, eating, or trying to find a way out of this strange garden. The next? The whole world seems to spin around you, colors blazing and swirling, sound muffled—it feels like you're going to faint—

. . .

Seconds later, it's over.

And you're somewhere else entirely. It looks like you're trapped inside a dome of frosted glass; nobody can see in, you can't see out, and should you try to break it, the only thing your efforts will earn you is a bruise.

It's a small space, which you're sharing with one other person—perhaps they're very, very special to you, perhaps they're not. Either way, other than them, all you'll be able to find is a long, sharp knife, and a vial labelled with naught more than a skull and crossbones.]

[From the moment the partners find themselves in their rooms, they're aware of the following:

✰ The pair must decide which one of them will live, and which one of them will die. This decision must be joint. Refusing to choose mean that they will both die.

✰ Once that's been decided, they have the opportunity to make an offer of something else in an attempt to save themselves! Offers may be made individually or as a pair, but they will be judged as a pair.

✰ At the end of this experiment, offers will be judged. The top 50% will be accepted, and those people will be spared.

✰ Should you fail, the partner slated to die will have a few choices on how it happens. They could kill themselves, have their partner do it, or allow Vanessa to do the honors. Unless your character is the type to immediately suicide, please wait until part two for any killing.]

[YEAH GO FOR STABBINGS. He's gonna try to bang on the glass himself, just to see how strong it is.]

[relaxes a bit once he has the knife, but you can see his shoulders slump a little. He's trying not to look down though.]

Just to be safe, I think we should at least make the decisions. Once we do that, we can keep looking for a way out.

Everyone else is going to be making offers, too. I don't think a simple meal will cut it...
