The Twenty-Fifth Trial [Mirror] - Winners and Endgame

Who: Heroes
When:Day 52, night
Where: near the Train

The rain falls harder, and the snake sneers at you as you exit the temples... Lightning strikes and the snake laughs like thunder... But that's all, the mocking laughter rings in your ears as the scenery shifts back to the normal Train area. Those who revive will do so near the Train as the winners and survivors reappear.

Ginger and Licorice double win for both surviving and targeting a Priest! For these teams they get 800 points.

Jasmine wins for surviving! They get 500 points.

Everyone on a winning team is revived and fully healed.

Everyone else... Is revived. And healed. However in whatever death wounds they received they have, instead of scars, white scales for their skin.

Smaller wounds will regenerate in a one to two days and will leave scales instead of scars unless healed otherwise.

All Kami remain hungry and able to shift to their monster form for the next day or so. Only meat will relieve this hunger.

Any Kami that were mad at the end of the game will retain a bit of mental instability for a day, in whatever form you prefer.

Priests, if they normally have powers, will find themselves somewhat weaker for a day.

It is not ICly known that these effects will wear off.

....

[She scoffs.] What weak parents. [And yet she could believe it.]

What kind of animal do you turn into? I don't know what a Chinese zodiac is.

There's twelve animals-- Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig. ...There's also one outside of it, the Cat, but he's...

...Mine is the Horse.

Well, now I'm even more angry at your parents. Equines are awesome.

....I'm pretty fond of them myself.

[ She just, you know, doesn't want to be cursed. ]

So like is it whatever-you-consider-normal horse, or monster horse?

Because won't lie, what I hear about supposedly normal horses doesn't seem terribly threatening, honestly not sure if they could deal with broken limbs, but if we're dealing with a curse, it's good to know if it's gonna be sudden monster horse.

Regular-for-my-world horse. A bit different looking than you.

So a shapeshifting curse. Well, I have been looking into that sort of thing. The trigger is kind of weird, but we can work with that.

We'll do some studying, see what we can do. I actually remember some how to analyze magic, I'd just need the equipment.

I'm not sure why that's the trigger.

[ It is pretty weird. ]

But if you could break that curse... I would do anything you wanted, give you anything I could.

It is. And what does it do with people who are gender fluid or nonbinary? Do you just get pony ears and a tail?

.... [That is]

[She]

[She doesn't quite know what to do with that. Because like, she thinks it's natural for people to want things and that's why they do things, but getting the offer like that is....]

[It feels]

[Wrong somehow]

[Egh.]

I don't need anything.

I want to help you. And it's kind of bad to just leave curses alone, who knows what'd happen then. Besides, magic is what I do, and I do have a personal interest in human-equine transformations.

I... don't know. I suppose I've never met anyone like that.

[ That she's aware of. Though she wouldn't have tested it, either. ]

If you can help... there is a person back home. More than anything I want to save him. All I want... is a cure for his sake.

....not for yours? At all?

It's not as though I want to be cursed, but... that person is more precious to me than any other. More than anything, I want a kinder world for him. He... he deserves so much more.
daydreamshimmer: mit-boy @ DA (Pony: Oh no...)

[personal profile] daydreamshimmer 2019-12-22 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
....

[She doesn't think the kindness of the world depends on the curse. After all, no one bat an eye at her going from human to unicorn here. Parents rejecting children, that shouldn't happen.]

[If a curse caused such rejection, especially an ultimately harmless to others on its own curse, the water was already poisoned.]

[But she doesn't know enough to be certain on that and that conversation isn't best for right now anyway. Its been a hard day. And even if it doesn't hurt others, it still sucks to have a body that doesn't feel right.]

Well, only way to cure him at this point is to cure you. Since I can't work on him directly right now.

You deserve more too, though.
