9: Maybe we should start with the names? Those are something we can all see. And the symbols.
9: You picked 12. I was trying to pick that, but my answer wound up 7...
[He's already thought to himself that 7 seems a more offensive answer, and 12 is more defensive in nature. Could that have anything to do with it? Was this revealing things about them that they weren't aware of? Or...was it all just a trick?]
9: So I've got swords and...no, that's not right.
9: There's other users who answered with 7 that got that snowflakewheelweb thing you have. So the symbols are probably related, but not in a way that's obvious.

Sure, he'll probably regret his actions. But he'd regret them more if he did nothing, he's certain of that.
And, well...how can he really say no to a game like this? It's a mystery that's practically begging to be solved, and a challenge he can't help but want to win the more he learns.]
