Congrats on surviving 1 tribal council on your tribe! 1. Did it go how you wanted? Two TCS! I'm frustrated that we wasted time on the challenge, and that ele and moth could've lived if axol made their decision earlier. Also, dog is still here, so that's fun. 2. What do you think happens if you go to tribal again? It would've been dog, obviously. 3. Have items affected the game at all? No, although I know now that the idol is gone, as it was next to the tiger where we thought it was. What I don't understand is why leopard seal, who must also have known this, didn't tell -everyone-. Like, it would've bought him so much trust for literally no cost? Now I find him slightly...odd. 4. How would you rank your current tribemates? Before, Eagle, small gap, rat, bigger gap, cat, even bigger gap bunny/seal, big gap axol and dog. Now, Its kind of everyone and then mongoose. Lion is amazing and I just need to get resettled with butterfly after the moth nonsense

Mongoose told bunny that if we go to Tc 'irs going to be fucking war'.
I think I've found the first person who I actively dislike. So that's fun.

I'm feeling really nervous. Like, on paper we should have enough here and if only one tribe goes to Tc then I'd be super confident BC why on earth would rat and eagle dump into immunity to save dog when they could get items??
But it's two tribes. And on paper I'm the worst connected here - I'm good with bunny and butterfly but there's three terra, and then butterfly has been with lion and mongoose before. I can't see why you wouldn't vote mongoose, whos just...a more obnoxious dog, especially if you were lion (I've made it clear I'm in with rat, who he seems to care about), and the same for bunny and butterfly but what that actually looks like I don't know.
And the fitness challenge is a flash game, my favourite...

Just fyi, semi live challenges that require 2 hours of commitment when you live in a timezone that's not USA, with the 2/3 prospect of going to Tc still suck.
So this Tc, last night, looked horrific - lion/bunny/mongoose are old terra, butterfly/lion/mongoose were together last tribe, I'm the odd one out by far.
But just after results lion and bunny were on and both really surprised me. Lion's in the best position by far, and he's aware of that, but he's also super reasonable and pragmatic - he could totally throw his weight around here but he isn't, and like...if he needs me as a vote for something later, or if he's at FTC and and I'm not, he's probably got my vote.
Bunny came out and said they were 100% committed to me, and they've kind of gone from someone I feel just fine about, to someone I really care about. Through getting upset at the challenge, to their emotional but also strategic response to this tribal (if I go here they think they go next) I just feel really invested in them.
Butterfly, they've just kind of assumed I'm with them here, which is logical, but not really approaching it the way I want?
So I think we're all voting for mongoose because I'm a better bet for the long game and it gives bunny more options next round. But if I was being blindsided that's exactly what I would think.
If mongoose has an item I'm fucked, but *shrug*

If I get out of this tribe alive I think it massively elevates my threat level, because on paper I shouldn't.
If we do go to Tc, it is maybe worth a char about tje fitness challenge, because if this is the last vote before merge, I'd rather vote out someone who I knew would win, would understand that we made that decision in order to keep all of us and would continue to work with us at the merge. Like, it's not an impossible way of using the mechanic!!
Also I kinda think we'd vote butterfly? Which is umm...I'm sure not what they think, but they are doing a surprisingly bad job of managing me

Lion is wall of texting me. Bunny is wall of texting me. Butterfly is sending three short paragraphs of a few lines each.
Butterfly has charmed bunny by keeping her over mongoose and I want to shoit that's it's not like butterfly massively likes bunny, she hated mongoose and let me know the minute I joined the tribe!
I've explained my 'lets make the twist work for us' theory, but it probably makes me look crazy lol.
Lion is still worried about the next TC and I just want to tell them that right now I'd rather vote butterfly. Which really does leave old aeria in the vast vast minority, but maybe being seen as a swing vote isnt a bad thing? Plus I have a strong group of four that I think lion fits into really easily, plus noone knows how much I love bunny (apart from lion, whoops)

Maybe I'm being unfair to butterfly, because that was the level of interaction we had before and it worked fine, but either she's massively overestimating her own status or underestimating mine? Like it's weird to think my relationships haven't changed or aren't in flux. Like, I'd love to reconnect with snowy but I woukdnt assume we have a bond set in stone from three easy (if annoying) tribals.

So in a surprise twist id go to rocks for bunny. But I think we might end up on butterfly here. This is either a massive mistake for me, or...fine? It's not like we have a huge amount of old aeria anyway - if terra wants to pagong then actually being closest to a bunch of old terra works for me short term, but then I have cat and eagle too. And potentially snowy, who's going to need friends.
Ugh ugh ugh.

The thing is she's just not sharing her thoughts with me at all? Like, we haven't shared who we built relationships with in the old tribe, she's not asking questions, it's just...blank.

Butterfly wants to meet up with frog and sloth at the merge. No reasons given, but again these are people I don't know. I just...ugh.

Who wants a tipsy confessional?
So, I totally expected that buttery would crush the challenge - and she's kinda been sitting to me that she did well.
But I misjudged her - I think I am expecting effort where she just sees working together and friendship and chill? Like I'd cooled on her as I felt she'd cooled on me. But maybe not?
Anyway, the long and short of it is we're convinced we are merging. So, butterfly did massively above what I assume is average for the challenge - and I've been saying since tribal one we should use and absus this mechanic. So we are.. buttefly suggested voting herself out so we could all be tjegywhe at merge, which is ...like honestly my ideal outcome either way?
I'd for some stupid reason we don't merge here, she's going on a tribe with eagle, and they'll best us next round anyway.
If we do merge, great. Just this once, rose, everybody lives.
