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

[hot_mess_express]

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.

A designation is just what you were built for. It's not what you are once you step out of the factory. Even drones understand that.

Virology 101, Merlot. Identity is the most abhorrent form of information. Unidentifiable, undistillable, uncategorizable, unconfirmable, and yet so easily malleable - it's the greatest flaw of consciousness. I'm not sure how you put yourself in that body without realizing that. Or maybe you've fallen victim to it, yourself? Ha.

[voreaciously]

It is what I was built for and what I am, however.

As you say; virology is not one of my formal disciplines. I will defer to your knowledge.

[everythinghappens]

You're very cute, you know.

[voreaciously]

I am not.

[breeze voice tells her to shut up]

...and I fail to see how, but thank you.

[everythinghappens]

I could tell you.

[ hey hey hey

did you want a mad scientist to be immediately in your personal space ]

Or, since it's absolutely stupid to believe anything you haven't observed, I could show you.

[voreaciously]

[she doesn't so much as shift as she's in her personal space]

...Show me how?

[everythinghappens]

[ cool.

she's just gonna put her hands on 80H's hips, then. ]

You're a smart girl, right? Come on, show me that perceptiveness I know - haha, sorry - believe you've got.

[voreaciously]

...I have just eaten people and I am, perhaps, dangerous to be around.

[she doesn't remove her hands from her hips but she does not engage her, either.]

[everythinghappens]

And I'm excited because I watched a monstrous horse murder and eat a girl and then fight an equally monstrous dog and eat that, too.

Incidentially, I'm told I'm definitely dangerous.

[voreaciously]

[....]

You would not happen to be a kami, would you?

[or are you Just Like This]

[everythinghappens]

Victory is victory.

[voreaciously]

[siiiiiighs but not actually

on the one hand, she would...no, she does not truly get a say.]

...Can in wait, a little? I must attend to some matters first.

[honestly, perhaps she could use the distraction anyway]

[everythinghappens]

[ there's a soft laugh, and she reaches up to stroke a hand through 80H's hair.

she gets monster teammates and a new toy on the same day! how wonderful. ]

Of course you can. I'd hardly want to get in the way.

[voreaciously]

[hm, going to ginger has a lot of risk, but if she brings her to jasmien that means she has to bring her to her room and then she'll DEFINITELY ask about the other doors and that'll just be like

man she doesn't wanna deal.]

I can come to Ginger, later.

[everythinghappens]

Wow, you'd come straight to my room? How bold, Merlot!

[voreaciously]

Where else would you prefer to have me?

[everythinghappens]

I don't really have a preference. I just thought it was cute, that's all.

[ kissing her on the forehead! ]

You should go take care of your business, dear.

[voreaciously]

Very well.

[she will leave, talk to randy, hang with morin khuur, do whatever, and then come back.]

[everythinghappens]

[ YEAHHH

loops an arm over her shoulder when she does, pulling her close. ]

Well? Were you productive?

[voreaciously]

...Yes.

[god she's so fucking tired

but she barely looks it. hard to tell with a blindfold too.]

Shall we?

[everythinghappens]

[ when does your character development include having tone and inflection again signed victory ]

We shall!

[ off to Ginger! ]

Did you have any requests?

[voreaciously]

[it'll come back today was just A Lot ok]

What sort of requests?

[everythinghappens]

You know, sexual preferences. Stuff you wanna do. Stuff you don't want me to do, I guess.

[ SHE GUESSES ]

[voreaciously]

You may do as you please, for the most part. I would prefer to focus on you.

[everythinghappens]

You still sound trafiiiiicked...oh well. We'll work on that.

Out of curiosity, is there anyone else here you've done this with?
