the tenth trial?

Who: everybody
When: Day 22, starting bright and early
Where: the jackal zone


[What was it...ah, yes. Come hither, Heroes, prove thy worth.

The familiar tremor of a trial comes with a voice that's probably familiar to a lot of train denizens. Entering the door to the trial reveals that somehow, yes, it is in fact Naeva who's done this.

The game room is a beautiful tea garden with elegant, victorian-style tea tables set out throughout. Naturally, the tables all have tea, a variety of snacks, and flower arrangements featuring the herbs from each team. The garden is also full of crystalline jonquil, though they can't seem to be picked up normally.

There are baskets set out for everyone who arrives, and a sign explaining the rules of the game. Across the top it reads Bonding Game.

Cardamom, you've made a huge mistake.]

[ While Crow would find that fucking delightful, that's not chaste at all. He takes the hand to stand up. ]

It's so nice to have someone else who understands.

We can hug lewdly later.

[for now! tugging Crow into a nice, cute hug with no groping or other nonsense.]

I'll keep you to that~.

[ Crow hugs back, even being good enough to keep his hands in safe places. Honestly, he's not terribly used to hugs of a non-chaste variety and it probably shows, but he's doing his best not to be stiff and lean into it as though he were a lot more comfortable with it than he actually is.

Still weird, though.

I'm counting on it~

[Randy is kiiind of accustomed to hugging awkward people, though they're usually worse at hiding it. He lets Crow go after a couple friendly pats to his back.]

There we go.

[ Being a shady fuck comes in handy when you want to hide your own body language.

He casually tucks his hands behind his head once they've separated.

Then except for the memories-- which we've already agreed not to do-- that should be everything!

Messing with memories sounds like a bad gamble. Been good working with you, Crow!

No kidding. See you around-- soon, hopefully~

See you!

[waving and bouncing to... pick rufus up and spin him in a delighted circle. something's going on THERE, apparently.]

[ Crow takes a moment to mentally popcorn that shockingly cute scene before he wanders off to go get more points with someone else. ]
