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.

Come on. Back to the train. Can you get up without help?

Re: REVIVALS

[malignstar]

I do not deserve it.

[ Does this tone sound familiar to Cat, hmmm? ]

Re: REVIVALS

[wontforbidtherain]

You don't get to decide that, I'm afraid. I've already decided.

Re: REVIVALS

[malignstar]

I failed to protect us.

Re: REVIVALS

[wontforbidtherain]

How? What could we have done differently?

Re: REVIVALS

[malignstar]

[ Practically growled ]

I could have stopped us from drinking that accursed vial.

Re: REVIVALS

[wontforbidtherain]

And then Felix would have volunteered to do one of the later tasks.

[And Cat isn't above holding up her own left arm for emphasis.]

And felt guilty that it was one of us in your current position.

Re: REVIVALS

[malignstar]

Such guilt is a fair price to pay.

[ But he does wince at the sight of Cat's arm. ]

Re: REVIVALS

[wontforbidtherain]

But it's not your decision to make; it's Felix's.

Re: REVIVALS

[malignstar]

Yes, he has proven how truly capable he is of making sound decisions. I think I shall make the decisions for now.

Re: REVIVALS

[wontforbidtherain]

You do have to share the body, you know.

Re: REVIVALS

[malignstar]

I think I have been more than generous as is. If he cannot take proper care of himself, then I will.
