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 hums, a smile playing on his lips. ]

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

[bowtiedbones]

Sure.

[bad_crowmance]

[ Eliza is lucky, she gets a nicer start than most everyone else has. ]

I dare you to go up on stage and sing a song.

[bowtiedbones]

Can do! I know just the song for bar karaoke, too!

[bad_crowmance]

Oh yeah? Let's hear it then!

[bowtiedbones]

Okay!

[hopping onto the stage. she's no Sia, but Cheap Thrills is still a fun song to sing and dance to]

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow claps and cheers when she finishes up. ]

Nice job!

[bowtiedbones]

[sweeps a bow, laughing]

Thank you, thank you!

[bad_crowmance]

Looks like you had a lot of fun with it, too.

[bowtiedbones]

[hopping off the stage and grabbing a water from the bar, a little breathless]

I did! I had a good audience to perform for.

[bad_crowmance]

It's only what you deserve.

[bowtiedbones]

You're sweet.

[bouncing a little, PLEASED]

Kiss or dare?

[bad_crowmance]

[ He blinks a little at the "sweet" comment but rolls right past it. ]

Dare, of course!

[bowtiedbones]

I dare you to gel your hair back.

[bad_crowmance]

....Do you have any hair gel I can borrow?

[bowtiedbones]

I don't, but I bet there's some in the closet.

[bad_crowmance]

Alright, gimme a sec!

[ He wanders into the closet and when he shows back up his hair is gelled back! ...He is, however, still wearing his bandanna. ]

Ta-daaaah~!

[bowtiedbones]

[crow WHY]

Oh my gosh, now that is a new look!

[bad_crowmance]

[ BECAUSE HE LIKES IT! S U F F E R. ]

Don't think I'll be adopting it permanently but it'll do for now.

[bowtiedbones]

It's not bad! No bangs is a big change though for sure.

[bad_crowmance]

No kidding. But hey, I know I can make any look work.

[bowtiedbones]

Maybe next dare I should put you in a suit.

[bad_crowmance]

I actually already own one. I haven't worn it yet though because I have plans for it.

[bowtiedbones]

Oohhhh?

[bad_crowmance]

Yep!

[ He grins, not adding anything else. ]
