so either  marsh or nyn are mafia 

 

The other is town

 

tell me how your gonna pull a lunch on key off? She isn’t going to self vote

 

im voting nowhere other than Ithi 

 

SURELY whichever of those two are town sees the problem here?

 

Honestly if we lose here town needs to accept the blame. Most of you haven’t even been willing to ENTERTAIN the truth that I’m the cop which is what makes this whole thing possible.

 

It's done sweets.

One scum left.

Walls closing in... what to do

Slacks was warming his feet by the fire when John first scanned the room. The cabin was larger than it looked from the outside—solid timber, updated amenities, and a fireplace crackling with warmth. Slacks looked alone, hunched over a laptop, so absorbed he didn’t hear the door open.

“Slacks,” John called.

He jumped, eyes snapping up, wary and alert.

“Where’s the rest of the team?”

Slacks exhaled, rubbing a hand over his face. “Hammer and I got in this morning. He’s in town—collecting tools.” He paused. “I wasn’t sure anyone else made it.”

John nodded, stepping in deeper. Officers Jacobs and Jacoby followed silently. As Slacks spoke, John filled in his side of the story—Florida, the station, the interrogation. When he finished, Slacks cut in.

“John, I’m glad you’re safe. But you need to see this.”

He turned the laptop toward him.

John scanned the data. They were Sprout’s files—dozens of them. Reports and research spanning psychology, cinema, military doctrine. Generational warfare. The “chosen one” trope. Government black programs. Every line like a breadcrumb, too wide-ranging to be coincidence.

Then Slacks pointed to a specific file.

TRASKER, HARRY — Codename: CHAMELEON.
Selected for Project: ROCKY, 8 years ago.
KIA: 3 years ago.
Remains entered into CANVAS initiative.

John flinched at the name. It was one of those acronyms no one in the field ever really believed or knew the workings of—CANVAS. The dossier detailed reanimation processes, diagnostics, and infiltration protocols. Chameleon had reintegrated seamlessly. The file listed interactions with each team member, including trust metrics, personality compatibility, and likely emotional responses.

Slacks leaned in. “Two big questions. First: why the hell was this sitting on a consulate server in Cape Town?”

John’s voice was low. “Because we were supposed to find it.”

He sat back, realization setting in.

“This whole thing—it’s a setup. We followed the trail from the start, chasing ghosts. Families disappeared, people vanished, and whenever we got close, the trail shifted. That wasn’t coincidence. We were maneuvered.”

Jacobs and Jacoby listened without interrupting. Slacks nodded grimly.

“Project ROCKY started before Harry got turned into a cyborg,” Slacks said. “This wasn’t about Chameleon. This whole thing… it’s a test. A final one. Based on the files, I think the Agency wanted to know one thing—are the old soldiers still better than the new?”

John frowned. “But we’re all the same age.”

Slacks shook his head. “Not really. Not under the skin. You’ve seen the kind of tech at play here. I think the line’s generational—eighties versus nineties. But with what they’ve done, we wouldn’t know. De-aged faces, synthetic tissue, all of it.”

He hesitated. “And that’s not the only conclusion.”

John didn’t need him to say it. “Hammer.”

Slacks nodded. “He doesn’t know I recovered the USB.”  The implication hung in the air.

John exhaled, resigned. “He blew the plane.”

At that moment, the door opened. Blue stepped inside, closing it quickly behind him.

“Agent Johnson, reporting for duty,” he said, flashing a tight smile. “Gump’s with me. He’s waiting for the all-clear before coming in. So... are we clear?”

John didn’t answer the question. “You were the one chasing me.”

Blue’s face didn’t flinch. “We were chasing answers. Turns out the missing families were a misdirect. Gainesville safe house—our own people had them. When we tried to report it, we got lit up. That’s when we knew. The Agency’s compromised. We came back to finish this... and to make it right for Hummingbird.”

His voice caught, just briefly.

John gave a slow nod. “Then let’s get Gump inside.”

Over the next hour, they filled each other in. Gump and Blue had pieced together much of what had happened, but hearing the roll call of the dead—Flash, Bottom, Strummer—hit hard. They sat in silence for a while after that. Snow fell steadily against the windows.

Another hour passed. Then another.

“Hammer should’ve been back by now,” Jacoby said.

The rookie’s instincts had always been sharp. A moment later, a shot cracked through the window.

Jacoby dropped.

Chaos erupted. The team hit the floor. John heard a callout—“six o’clock, right window!”—and the room exploded into motion. Jacobs tore open Jacoby’s vest, searching for a wound. There was a vest, thank God.

Then came the explosions. Two of them. Outside. The vehicles. Blue and Gump were already at the hallway entrance, rifles up. Gump braced his against the corner, steady. Blue tapped his shoulder, then sprinted across the room, firing as he moved.

A single shot rang out from Gump. Then: “Clear.”

John scrambled to Jacoby, who groaned but was breathing. He’d be okay—shaken, maybe a cracked rib—but alive.

They moved outside together, following the tracks up a snow-covered hill. Beyond the wreckage of their cars, they found him.

Hammer.  Dead.  But something was happening to his body.

Skin graying. Hair thinning. Wrinkles deepening by the second. He was aging right in front of them.

No one spoke for a long time.

John stared. “This wasn’t a man in his forties,” he said quietly. “Fifties. Maybe sixties.”

Slacks murmured, “What kind of helltech keeps a soldier’s fast-twitch fibers intact that long?”

John didn’t answer. His eyes never left the corpse.  

 

Keyholder21 - John Rambo - Sylvester Stallone - First Blood, Mafia Roleblocker has been lynched.

It is now night. We stay on schedule if we can get actions in 16 hours, but if anyone with night actions wants at least a full day I'll bump it to 40.  


 

oh VERY nice play Ithi.

 

i didn’t think you’d actually bus a teammate there

Sorry for cutting it short but I personally had no use in waiting to hear from key again...

 

yeah? Well how about waiting to hear from the guy who’s been telling you he’s the cop all game!!!?? 
 

you know what happens now right?

 

you or marsh get killed. No WAY they kill me. They kill me ithi is instalynched tomorrow.

 

my guess? I reckon they will kill Marsh because you will NOT listen to or believe me.

 

congrats mafia.  You e probably won now.

 

there isn’t even any point me putting in an action because I already KNOW ithi is the gf

hence why I’m going to LOSE. Because you won’t listen.  You won’t THINK outside your current view

I am.

 

Dice has been lying.

 

I've been saving all the receipts cos I was super angry. Especially on Day 2 when he tried to stop us from Lynching Ed and then got to join in the post Lynch party. Cos I realised then he wasn't just Town trying to cover me.

 

 

 

Explain?

Plus who did you view every night?

Btw if key wouldn't have played the way she did i might have tinfoiled on a marsh/ithi team so I'm personally super relieved to see the red flip xD

Right but at this stage in the game, he'd have come clean already if that were the case.

Are you super certain about ithi? 

 

Cause I'd still like to hear the record and reasoning of her peeks

She's been trending more and more town for me since Ed's death, so that's my primary reason to trust her. If she's scum she's really really on her game because the way she played during D3 and D4 read very town to me.

No I meant if you were a vanilla who'd false claimed. Ithi implied she thought you might be doing it to draw attention away from the real cop.

I think that frustration at not getting credit for spotting Ed’s slip was a masterstroke

 

 problem is she is scum. She needs to die and you too need to realise that

 

there is no reasonable excuse for thinking I was a vt protecting the real cop.  If I do that I don’t argue this hard, this long or this vehemently about it.

 

I also DONT GET LEFT ALIVE WHEN THEY HAVE A STRONG MAN KILL AND THEN THE DOC IS DEAD UNLESS THEY WANT TO PULL EXACTLY THIS PLAY!!!!!!

@Ithillian Turambar when you get around to answering my questions, pls

 

I'd also like to read this, hopefully when I wake up. Had to stay up way past my bedtime tonight because of how the timing works for flood irrigation. It's a venerable old system here in the Salt River valley but sometimes you get assigned to flood at 2 am. So tomorrow I'll be sleeping in!

Morning. Sorry I didn't get to bed till 2am and it's Saturday so I didn't need to get up early.

 

Ok Key was the Roleblocker. That means Dice is the GF.

 

Night 1: I viewed DPR because I hoped he might be Town but he easily agreed with my reasons for voting Marsh 1 and I was worried that he'd done that on purpose and would say, yeah well Ithi said.

 

I got result town.

 

I was glad about that, and when he didn't try and deflect anything on to me I figured he was town. 

 

Night 2 I viewed Zander, cos he was going on and on about when the real cop should or shouldn't claim what they would need to do, to be believed. So I figured he was also trying to make sure I wouldn't be believed. He also was trying to say I should be the Lynch the next day.

 

I got result town.

 

So I relaxed a bit about him and was able to laugh along with him again.

 

Night 3 I viewed Tigs cos I didn't want another Heavy situation.

 

I got result not-town so I thought she was mafia.

 

Dice was still saying I would be auto Lynched. DPR was saying it was OK and I definitely would not be but I didn't want to take the chance because there were still 2 mafia left. That meant the could still NK me and get rid of the cop. Sure Dice would get lynched the next day but they'd still have 1 player in play and I wouldn't have been able to confirm that Key was mafia. Thats why I just put Tigs at the top of my list as super suss and pushed for her to be Lynched.

 

Turns out the not-town result was actually 3rd party and there had been a lot of discussion about whether we needed to be worried about 3rd party yet because of maths. I unvoted and waited for DPR to confirm. Sorry I didn't trust your advice, Marsh, but the only person I would have listened to at that point was DPR. He said go and I re-voted Tigs.

 

I need to get a coffee and breakfast now but I will be back.

Ty

What did you Think about dice's claim. You suggested at first you thought he was a vt trying to draw the heat from you. What made you change yor mind?

 

Also why didn't you claim after getting a red peek on tigs?
