The Seventeeth Trial

[catcophonous]

Who: trialgoers
When: Day 39, evening
Where: The Cat's Zone

[Have you enjoyed your day playing in your new train cars? Great! Because now it's Trial Time.

With the usual alert, the Cat's bar appears in the clearing. There's no "come hither" -- instead, just the pounding of bass from the speakers as the door cracks open. Inside there's flashing party lights, upbeat club music, and high-top tables surrounding a wide dance floor. The stage in the corner is empty except for a single microphone.

At the bar you can get free drinks, but you'll have to contend with the bartender -- a black cat curled up on the shelf between the bottles.

On the bar, and on every table, is a sign showing the rules of this game, titled:

Kiss or Dare

If you want to dress up for the club, or want costumes for daring purposes, there's a dressing room behind the stage with a magic closet. You'll find whatever you like in it, but when the trial ends you can only take home what you're wearing!

Good luck!]

[ Crow's not bothering with getting a new outfit-- he likes his current one just fine, thank you very much-- and is instead leaning against the bar and checking people out with a smile playing on his lips.

When you get close enough, he'll speak up. ]

So! Kiss or dare, huh? Can't say I'd mind either one.

[voreaciously]

Shall we play, then?

[bad_crowmance]

Of course. You wanna go first?

[voreaciously]

As you like, Crow-han. Kiss or Dare?

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow grins, that competitive edge already sparkling in his eyes. ]

Dare of course!

[schrodingerscockroach]

So gotta ask.

Did the hallucinations wear off yet?

[bad_crowmance]

Yep! You look like a person again. Finally. Gotta say you look better that way!

[schrodingerscockroach]

Oh good. Still not sure if I'm under an affect or not, but at least dressing up was worth it. [Winks.]

[So he should probably return the guns tomorrow. See if Crow asks about it before then.]

So, kiss of dare?

[bad_crowmance]

[ He Will Not. ]

Dressing up's always worth it! And dare, obviously.

[bowtiedbones]

It's a win/win game!

[bad_crowmance]

My favourite kind! Especially if I end up getting to kiss someone as cute as you.

[bowtiedbones]

You'll have to think up a good dare if you want that to happen.

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow hums, a smile playing on his lips. ]

I'll make that a goal, then. So you wanna take the first dare?

[survivaltricks]

One of them is worth way more points than the other, though.

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow hums out a brief agreement. ]

Oh yeah, that's why I'm going to be picking "dare." But I still win if the other person picks "kiss" instead.

[survivaltricks]

Touche. Sounds like you've thought this out already.

[fuckyew]

Ah...someone from the purple team. I haven't met any of you guys yet...

[He's wearing his clover overalls still, but he's wearing a cloak now, thx.]

[bad_crowmance]

Now you have! The name's Crow Armbrust, what's yours?

[fuckyew]

I have a sunny disposition just like lovely afternoons~

Or at least, I'm stuck with a saccharine team that liked themes. So it's Noon.

[malignstar]

Ooh choices! Well, I've always walked in on the wild side so~ dare!

[bad_crowmance]

The wild side, huh~?

[ Crow grins. ]

Well! I dare you to go up to someone and tell them five things you like about 'em.

[malignstar]

Aww, that's a cute one.

[bluediligence]

Hi~! If you don't mind, then ...

Hm, hm. I dare you to give someone a hug!

[bad_crowmance]

Hey, you know that you count as someone?

[ And that's the only warning she gets before he scoops her up into a big hug. ]

[bluediligence]

WAH! H-Hey, that's cheating...!

[ ... That said, she gives him a big hug right back. ]
