The Twenty Second Trial

[hot_mess_express]

Who: You
When: Day 49, Morning
Where:

The entrance today is a huge, ornate stone archway. A gossamer veil glittering like starlight upon water hangs inside it, fluttering as if caught in a gentle breeze. It's impossible to say what might lie beyond; even if you walk around the other side — and it's perfectly possible to do so — you just see the same thing.

[Coughing blood up as he starts breathing.]

[ It's too bad he doesn't know any ways other than sex to increase Rean's mana to help him heal faster. As it is, he strokes Rean's hair and tries to focus on the concern he feels and not the still-simmering homicidal feelings from earlier. ]

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

[Getting some clear breaths and registering he has a warm pillow and his arm hurts like hell, looking up at Crow.]

...? It's over?

Re: REVIVALS

[bad_crowmance]

Yeah.

[ He murmurs the words, still stroking Rean's hair. ]

It's over.

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

[Sitting up with a wince and wiping his mouth, looking down at his arm like ???????]

...Are you doing okay?

[You don't feel great buddy.]

Re: REVIVALS

[bad_crowmance]

[ He has an ear missing, he's hallucinating, and he's nearly incandescent with rage. But. ]

I'm doing better than you at the moment.

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

I'm... not actually sure that's true.

Re: REVIVALS

[bad_crowmance]

Looks true from where I'm sitting.

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

Let me put it another way. I'm fine now. And I'm not that bothered by dying. I'm already dead.

[More vaguely inconvenienced feeling really.]

You on the other hand....

[He puts a hand on Crow's cheek.]

Need some attention.

Re: REVIVALS

[bad_crowmance]

[ Yes but maybe Crow doesn't like you dying again, Rean! He doesn't say it out loud, though, instead leaning into Rean's touch. ]

I'm not going to ignore that. But it was more important to check on you first.

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

... Thank you. I'm okay now so let's handle you.

Re: REVIVALS

[bad_crowmance]

Alright, but you're coming with me.

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

Okay.

What happened in Licorice?

Re: REVIVALS

[bad_crowmance]

It mostly went fine right until someone decided to play their round on us

[ Oops, he's feeling homicidal again. ]

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

They...Oh no.

Re: REVIVALS

[bad_crowmance]

Yeah.

[ Crow touches the area near where his ear should be. It's still bloody, even staining chunks of his hair a pinkish colour. ]

Haven't figured out who yet, though.

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

[Bad. Dislike. He leans his forehead to Crow and the gets out of his lap, offering him a hand up.]

Let's get you healed up.

Re: REVIVALS

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow is trying to bury the homicidal feelings but oh boy he has them. He takes Rean's hand. ]

...Yeah. Sounds like a good idea to me.

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

[He feels that but he doesn't know what to do about it.]

Did anyone else get hurt in Licorice?

Re: REVIVALS

[bad_crowmance]

[ That's fair, honestly. ]

One of the newbies had to cut a finger off... and then a whole hand. The other one was coughing up blood.

[ ... ]

How did Ginger hold up?

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

Rufus wants to eat human flesh and Faito lost a foot otherwise... it probably could have been worse.

Re: REVIVALS

[bad_crowmance]

Yikes, sounds like you guys had a pretty rough time.

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

We got through with teamwork and laughter.

Re: REVIVALS

[bad_crowmance]

Yeah.... Rufus told me you laughed to death.

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

Yep. That happened.
