The Twenty-Eighth Trial

Who: trialgoers
When: Day 60 all day
Where: the trial zone and elsewhere

[Sometime this morning (morning? there's still no sun, so what's the difference), you feel the call to a new Trial.

The entrance to the Trial Zone is a new one: a tower has sprung up in the clearing, like a bit of a fairytale castle. It's made of a sparkling pink granite and has lovely star-themed carvings -- if you can see them behind the excess of neon and lights its been decorated with. If the fairy godmother made a dance club, this would be it!

Rather than a disembodied "come hither", your call is a video on a big screen above the entrance -- a young man in a masquerade mask and a flashy, witchy costume (including a big hat) stands... on top of the tower?? It's hard to see up there, but on the screen you can tell he's got twinkly star-filled hair and a black cat with blue eyes perched on his shoulder. He's also striking a pose.]

Heroes of Distant Stars, gather 'round! I, the mysterious and handsome witch of love, have a Trial for you! Come into my party tower and prove your love to me! If you're not a weenie, that is...

[Upon entering the tower, you find yourself in a vast ballroom. Lit with rainbow lights, magic sparkles, and an excess of blacklights and glowing things, it really does look like a club. Bubbly electronic pop blares over the speakers, though there are several tables and curtained-off booths if you'd prefer to avoid the dance floor. One table includes infinitely re-filling glasses of fruity soda, which lower inhibitions incrementally as you consume them (though only for positive urges). If you wish to get even more in the mood, there's a changing room with costumes -- all hybrids of fantasy and neon pop, just like the decor.

Time to get your love on!]

Then someone should really teach him better. I don't mind complimenting or gift-giving, but that last one's too much!

[ even though... it would have been nice to win.... oh well. ]

Working on it, but there's obstacles. [Sighs.]

How would you feel kissing a pony? [Listen, if she can get a kiss form someone no one can, she'll take the points.]
dragonheartedgirl: (You want me to what now?)

[ Well now she's. Very lost. ]

A pony....?

[ uhhh. ]

... Well I guess... that's no different than kissing a kitten or a puppy is it...?
daydreamshimmer: (Pony: Oh its fine)

[personal profile] daydreamshimmer 2020-03-11 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
Talking ones, at least.

[And sudden pony.]

But I figured I couldn't care about kissing humans because I mean, you all just look kind of weird to me. Doesn't feel like so much.

Pony. Not horse. [Very Firm On That.]

Specifically unicorn. We're one of the dominant species on my homeworld.

[ leaning over to get a better look at her horn. ]

What's the difference between a pony and a horse?
daydreamshimmer: (Pony: Yeah that might be dumb)

What's the difference between a human and a monkey?

[ Sorry, she still hasn't quite figured out she's said something offensive--and as such is responding to the question as though it was genuine. ]

Well--we can talk, we have significantly less hair, we don't live in trees or throw poop...
daydreamshimmer: theshadowstone @ DA (Pony: Its so terribly hard)

Communicating doesn't always require verbal words.

Do you want to be called monkey girl?
