Who: Everyone
When: Day 20, evening
Where: The train and surrounding terrain
[So after all the earlier excitement.... dramatic organ music starts to play through the cars. There's no obvious source. It's just... There? All around you for a while, before fading.
Of course before the music fades there's more things going on. A mist seeps up from the earth outside the train and within the train simply seems to form like it's produced by invisible fog machines. As the mist grows into a thick fog, you can hear eerie noises. Distant wolf howls, the screech of a fox that sounds like human screaming, owls hooting hauntingly, the leathery flap of bat wings, and other, less identifiable noises of the night, strange and otherworldly.
If you go out in it, breathe it in, the mist will chill you. Make you desire... Touch.
The need to hold another person is an almost growing compulsion, but it can be fought.
However things that are harder to avoid are the flowers, night blooming wisteria in white and purple seems to have grown from nowhere in the train cars, hanging down to brush the heads of passengers with sweet scented blossoms, and the floors of the train and ground around it have become endless beds of gently glowing moonflowers.
The only places the fog and flowers don't reach are team cabins.
Effects:
Mist:
Cold that cannot be dispelled without touch, a desire to touch others.
Wisteria:
Purple blossoms cause an empathetic bond with the next person you touch. White blossoms cause arousal and a mild to powerful aphrodisiac effect.
Moonflowers:
Share memories or thoughts with the next person you touch.
By morning the mist and flowers will vanish.]

1/2
She and Hlasoh are having a back-and-forth with each other, with Hlasoh crying and offering to do it. Her tears set off ???'s tears, and they're both a sobbing, broken mess. For his part, Crow's back is in blinding pain from the twenty lashes he'd received from the previous round for a choice he hadn't even really wanted to make-- but betraying his teammates in a game would set a bad precedent, wouldn't it? So he'd let it be.
Anyway. He's in pain and the crying is grating on his last nerve. Crying is uncomfortable! All these feelings are uncomfortable! So he decides to take matters into his own hands-- avoid the spine and brain and ??? can survive-- and he runs her through with a sword.
There. Maybe now the crying will stop. He'd done it so neither of them have to worry about it.
But then Hlasoh goes and does it anyway and it was all for nothing, honestly, how annoying! ]
