Reasons for voting the Vizier: 1. Just curiosity. Shows up with some weird monster hat, can hear John, refuses to elaborate and leaves. I want to know what’s going on 2. John seems to know more about this situation than anyone else and he wants to follow him 3. It’s better to prepare before we go to fight the fucking King in Yellow himself. Any information is important and we know for sure the encounter with Larson will be antagonistic since everyone hates each other, we don’t know about the Vizier and it’s better to take care of all the loose ends before we fight the big bad 4. I don’t trust Noel to keep a clear head at least not now. He wasn’t prepared to see the KiY and I know keeping him alive isn’t the priority but he’s my best friend and I want him to mentally prepare that he’s apparently fighting the guy who tortured him for years now

I am a lore freak first and foremost, I say we follow the Grand Vizier to learn what the hell is up with him

I know majority rule for lore, and I absolutely agree it’s the better idea. It might give us the chance to save yellow! But honestly? I’m voting Larson. Fuck that scrawny nerd, I wanna shove him in a locker.

All of them are too shaken up to confront a likely prepared Larson imo

Larson / Yellow (Noel) • They are drained from the display, so going after them while weakened, before they have a chance to recover could be beneficial • Bullets/fisticuffs are unlikely to solve the situation • Noel may be too unhinged facing off against KIY before time to cool down • Larson may be expecting Arthur and have a trap in the room he went to Vizier / whatever that entity is (John) • May be able to learn more about the ceremony, Larson and Yellow to better prepare for further action • Don’t know what the thing is or what it can do / what they’ll be getting into following it (ex - mental link w/Larson?) • The other 8 people went with them • They might be able to pull off just being fellow cultists for some period of the interaction

Bonus: The actual vizier might be dead (blood on his face from where the tentacles have gouged into his eyes and ears) so touching him may prompt DEATH VISIONS

John has another agenda here. He manipulated Arthur into going this event in order to fulfill his deal with Kayne. I'd take John's suggestions with a grain of salt right now. I'm not saying John is necessarily being manipulative at this moment. It just seems like a good idea to weigh that on the scale.

Amy

I’m voting the vizier cause Arthur and John can steal his Horror Hat. Also: how the heck can Larson/Yellow do this stuff??? Can Arthur and John do that too? Can Arthur send John out against Yellow in combat like the world’s most Eldritch Pokémon battle?

The description of the strange mollusk on the Vizier’s head immediately pings as a symbol of Azathoth to me, and I am so damn curious. But I also would love to get at Larson and Yellow. I think that if we gun for them right off the bat though, Noel will certainly die. He won’t be able to keep his cool whatsoever after witnessing what he believes to be the full King in Yellow and John’s true identity would no doubt be revealed, probably making him spiral. I don’t think we’ll get a lot in terms of information out of the two and that it would be a mostly emotionally charged affair, which I’ll admit is still really tempting.

I really wanna know what’s going on with the Vizier but I’m too worried about Larson making a recovery. And how dangerous he will be when he’s recharged. That being said. Even is Larson is weakened I doubt Yellow will be

Alexi

larson is final boss and ends the level. gotta persue side objectives first. lol

Queen

i just wanna state for the record here that i am not voting for larson because i do not think we are ready for larson. thats basically the strongest non-john-reason i have.

Nicky

I suspect it’s something to do with Larson having been into Magic for a long time, so figured something out

Lizzy Lue

Bruh I don't want Arthur to murderize Yellow. Yeah that's my primary reasoning here. As cool as it would be to watch him paste Larson.

Teakettle

I forgot to say why I voted for what I voted here - my reasoning was mainly about lore and curiosity about crab headed guy.

Positive

The fact that Yellow can slip in and out of Larson seemingly at will is HUGE for us fic writers
