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.]

[ Crow bats at Dusk's hand. ]

Watch the hair!

[ It's a protest without any bite to it. He'll take the sparks. ]

[schrodingerscockroach]

[He chuckles, but pulls his hand away.] I really can't tell the difference, honestly. [Your hair is weird.]

[bad_crowmance]

Rude! I brush my hair!

[ Don't question video game hair logic.

(He's not seriously upset.) ]

[schrodingerscockroach]

If you say so.

[Really just easing even if his hair is Weird.]

[bad_crowmance]

[ He knows it's just teasing, he's just a dramatic brat who likes to overreact for humour's effect. ]

I do say so.

[schrodingerscockroach]

Ah, I'll never understand the youth and their hair.

[He's really not that old, but fun to play up the old man card for dramatic effect too.]

[bad_crowmance]

That's okay.

[ He puts a hand on Dusk's shoulder. ]

No one expects an old man to get it.

[schrodingerscockroach]

Ah, such good youngsters, so patient with an old man.

[bad_crowmance]

You have to be patient with old people. It's not their fault they're so old.

[schrodingerscockroach]

Senility is a real fear.

[bad_crowmance]

Don't worry, Dusk. We'll still be here for you no matter how senile you get.

Bond

[schrodingerscockroach]

[And complete with very good old man voice.] You're a good one, sonny jim. [Patting his shoulder.]

[Also impersonations have a good track record of getting a laugh, what can he say?]

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow bursts into startled laughter at that. ]

Nice one!

[schrodingerscockroach]

Thank you. [Normal again.]

You should hear my charmed damsel.

[bad_crowmance]

Ooooh, now I really want to.

[schrodingerscockroach]

You'll have to earn that, I'm afraid.

[bad_crowmance]

It's always good to have goals.

[schrodingerscockroach]

It's amazing what you accomplish with proper motivation.
