The Twenty-Third Trial

[advisories]

Who: trialgoers etc!
When: Day 50, morning
Where: the ~trial zone~

[Another morning, another Trial! Ugh.

At least this one seems normal, starting out with a shake and the Hermit’s booming voice:]

"Good morning, Heroes. You can guess why you're being called, but before we begin I have an official statement. The Prince of Stars and associates were not responsible for yesterday's Trial. It appears the system was copied by a Malicious entity -- we apologize for any confusion and are doing our best to locate this entity and find a way to prevent any such incidents in the future.

In the meantime, we've scheduled a low-stress Trial for today to lift your spirits. With teamwork and a little silliness, let's search for unity and peace within ourselves."

[The Hermit's tent is in the clearing, awaiting your arrival.]

See, I knew you're smart.

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bowtiedbones]

Not smart enough to get "castle," though. We thought that was "wall."

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bad_crowmance]

Nobody's perfect! ...Not even me, we didn't get any of 'em. And apparently I can't tell pictures of salt apart from pictures of sugar.

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bowtiedbones]

But there were cubes??

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bad_crowmance]

There's a reason I don't bake!

[laughing! she ABSOLUTELY has not slept, but her spirits are higher today]

Oh geez! What did you guess for that set if that was salt?

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bad_crowmance]

....Spice.

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bowtiedbones]

Oh! Were the sticks supposed to be like cinnamon?

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bad_crowmance]

Yeah, that's what I was thinking!

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bowtiedbones]

I can see that! Sugar or salt, sticks, and mouth could have been interpretated a lot of ways.

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bad_crowmance]

Yeah, I'm not really sure how else you could've shown that one honestly.

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bowtiedbones]

We thought about using the circle for it, but we used that for the egg instead.

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bad_crowmance]

Man...! I even got "egg" out of that one and then I walked it back!

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bowtiedbones]

A round baby bird is an egg, unfortunately!

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bad_crowmance]

I knoooow! But then Dusk said "cherub" and it's not like I hadn't thought of it, so...!

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bowtiedbones]

For cherub I probably would have used the baby card, but with the sky instead of the circle.

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bad_crowmance]

That'd make sense, too.

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bowtiedbones]

They can't all be as direct as a bikini set for a bikini.

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bad_crowmance]

I think it was a lingerie set, but... fair enough.

[ Crow laughs, shrugging. ]

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bowtiedbones]

I mean in how it was a matched set, but either way. It was a really cute set!

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bad_crowmance]

It was! I knew I had to use that card the second I saw it.

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bowtiedbones]

For that word specifically or just to use the card at all?

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bad_crowmance]

I'll let you decide which one I mean.

[ He grins impishly and winks at her. ]

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bowtiedbones]

[laughing]

Geez!

Re: WINNERS & ENDGAME

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow laughs again, tucking his hands behind his head. ]

Anyway, I had a lot of fun with this one. Even if I didn't win.
