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!]

Maybe you should.

[malignstar]

I'll save it for when you need a break.

[schrodingerscockroach]

Not a bad policy.

[malignstar]

Besides, you seem to be enjoying yourself almost as much as me.

[schrodingerscockroach]

Soft things are nice.

[malignstar]

Which do you prefer? Fur or feathers. I come in multiple kinds of soft, after all.

[schrodingerscockroach]

Probably fur. Seems like accidentally petting against the grain with feather could actually hurt. Fur would just be uncomfortable.

[malignstar]

I don't know, I'm pretty resilient.

[schrodingerscockroach]

Well, less it being a hurt that actually matters as more like when you get a few hairs pulled out. Not exactly a thing to go for.

[malignstar]

It's true that I've never really lost feathers.

[schrodingerscockroach]

And I think losing them can affect flight a bit?

....can you fly?

[malignstar]

I can definitely do. Want to see?

[schrodingerscockroach]

....absolutely.

[malignstar]

[ Spreads wings to their fullest and grabs him under the arms before taking off upward ]

[schrodingerscockroach]

[ejwaioejwaoijew]

....so definitely magic wings.

[Because they don't seem big enough to lift FELIX, let alone his dense butt.]

[malignstar]

[ Dusk is admittedly pretty heavy and Felix is straining a lot, but his wings are also kind of massive ]

W-What's t-that?

[schrodingerscockroach]

If it's hard, you can put me down. It's cool, but I've flown before.

[malignstar]

[ Flap, flap ]

N-no, no way how, how else am I going to build up these c-carrying muscles?

[schrodingerscockroach]

Probably with a lighter weight?

[malignstar]

W-where's the challenge in... t-that?

[schrodingerscockroach]

Physical lifting is about steadily upping the weight, not pushing too hard you hurt yourself.

lol voice recognition typo

[malignstar]

I'm f-fine. Just n-need to get used to it.

Whoops

[schrodingerscockroach]

That is not how you build proper strength, that's how you pull something.

Re: Whoops

[malignstar]

S-Since when did you... b-become my personal t-trainer?

Re: Whoops

[schrodingerscockroach]

Since I know a lot about how to properly get into shape?
