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.

[DEAD RANDY ALERT! His neck and mouth and shoulder have definitely been. savaged by a humanish mouth, but it looks like the knife sticking out of him probably finished the jaw.

coming to, he at least has the presence of mind to yank it out of himself with a groan.]

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

[Appearing. Because fuck.]

Randy!

Re: REVIVALS

[crimeson]

Rean--

[NOPE HE DOES NOT WANT REAN TO SEE HIM LIKE THIS]

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

[TOO BAD. Kneeling to get a look at him.]

Oh... Randy.

[Softly, upset and caring as he examines the damage.]

Re: REVIVALS

[crimeson]

[would like to hide! cannot hide!! cannot even hide his feelings and he knows it, and there's a primal goddamned terror. he is still hallucinating.

throwing a forearm over his face.]

I fucked up.

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

...

[Putting a hand on him, somewhere not mangled.]

What happened?

Re: REVIVALS

[crimeson]

[stills. heyyy a surge of self-loathing!]

...

I killed everyone.

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

... [oh no. Compassion and heartache and leaning down to put his forehead to Randy's.]

Why?

Re: REVIVALS

[crimeson]

[a huff of laughter that really feels like it should be tears.]

Shitty aim. Sousei lost control and I... stabbed 80H instead. I wasn't even supposed to do more than knock him out, but that knife...

Re: REVIVALS

[awakenerd]

...I get the picture.

You're going to beat yourself up over it even though it sounds like you didn't really have a choice or control of anything. Also, for all I can tell you might be the most hurt, I don't know. Can you sit up?

Re: REVIVALS

[crimeson]

I stabbed the wrong fucking person, Rean...

[but he's sitting up as best he can, wincing]

Re: REVIVALS

[ruinatings]

[Okay wtf happened to your team!!

Rufus is casting a heal immediately, and then crouching next to Randy.]

Aidios, what a mess.

Re: REVIVALS

[crimeson]

[whines and paws at him pathetically]

Re: REVIVALS

[ruinatings]

[Shhh pets now]

I'm here. Stay calm.

Re: REVIVALS

[crimeson]

[mmmmMMMM

rolls onto his side and basically just tries to roll into Rufus' lap]

Re: REVIVALS

[ruinatings]

[Oof. Big dog! This is fine though, he'll cuddle Randy reassuringly.]

You need better healing than arts can do, I think.

Re: REVIVALS

[crimeson]

Prolly...

[fuuuuuuuuuck]

...Rufus, I fucked up...

Re: REVIVALS

[ruinatings]

Oh? Is that what happened?

Re: REVIVALS

[crimeson]

I shouldn't have been stabbing anybody, but I stabbed everyone...

Re: REVIVALS

[ruinatings]

Yes, well. I accidentally killed Rean and ate some of him, but I'm not going to beat myself up.

[Pet pet pet]

This was a cruel trial.

Re: REVIVALS

[crimeson]

Accidentally?

[leans... into pets...]

Way meaner than usual.

Re: REVIVALS

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow showed up not long after Rean did but will do Randy the favour of not staring and letting Rean handle things. ]

Re: REVIVALS

[crimeson]

[thank you he appreciates you]

Re: REVIVALS

[bad_crowmance]

[ It's all good, he gets it. ]

[bluediligence]

[ oh holy shit what happened to jasmine ]

[ shuffles over as best she can with one foot missing ]

Hey, I, uh, I've got some healing magic, do you need help-?
