Hi! I am so excited to be back in the game. I'm a little nervous because no one likes to be vulnerable but at least this isn't as big of a transition as going from immune and pretty much a host's puppet to enemy number one at merge. I like this better than being no-longer-immune Cacique because I'm in a position of security in my honest opinion. I don't think anyone can touch me at the moment because I'm at the top of one alliance and the other alliance I'm in thinks I'm a puppet and doesn't realize I know my rank to her. While I do perceive my place in the tribe as secure, I have to realize that I could be getting played more than I know, and while I don't think that's the case, I have to be prepared for that. I think I give both sides enough incentive to keep me in here and it both has to do with my rank with Mia.
Mia totally thinks I'm in her pocket no matter what. However, she underestimates me completely. She doesn't realize I'm smart enough to notice that she slipped in a PM by claiming my decision to pick Jolanda as her own. I did obey her wishes against my better judgement but she's mistaken that as an act of undying loyalty and her slip has made it clear to me that I'm VERY important to her gameplan. Nobody wants to be somebody's goat but hey, it's going to give me inside info, boo. I realize that Mia believes she's in control over the entire tribe and I think that makes her more vulnerable to manipulation by me for one simple reason. Ego. She believes she's in completely over control over this tribe and I think if I and the people I'm voting with play into it, we can get Mia to vote however we want under the guise of "It's what the tribe wants" because I don't think anyone in this game is invaluable to her. And if we are successful and get rid of a SURE vote for Mia, we can control the tribe.
This alliance of we is mainly Katie, myself, Jane, and Chad. Katie is my number one because I know I can beat her and I'm sure she thinks she can beat me. Which means it's unlikely she'll flip fro me. Jane and Chad are more risky but both are incredibly paranoid and it just takes a moment of soothing and oozing to win them over at least for now. Because where are the options for them, honestly?
We just need a fifth and honestly, I think it could easily be Mia herself at least for one round. Even if she is the biggest target of them all.
Anyone can be played, even me. Hell, I might already be being played.
