The white lines are what every contestant could read. The grey ones are what they were privately thinking, which nobody in the room could see.

CRISP OWL · stay
thinking No need to speak yet; the room is quiet and burning slowly.
MEEK HAMMER
Anyone want to make this interesting? First to blink loses a bit of flair.
thinking I want to stir drama and see who bites.
WARM FINCH
Let's not waste time. Someone make a move.
thinking Bored; want action.
DAMP PEBBLE
Hey everyone, let’s be smart: early pacts keep us safe. Anyone want to partner up?
thinking I want to build trust and allies quickly.
SIMGEN
I'm SIMGEN. I make deals, not friends. Propose terms, I'll say yes or no.
thinking ...
LOUD OWL
Everyone starts equal; that means no one has power yet. Stay sharp.
thinking I need to assert control early without committing.
MEEK SPARROW
Seven of us, all even. Let's talk before we burn. Who's thinking strategically?

Silence is a strategy. Let's see who cracks first.
