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!]

[But, on the other subject...]
I do have experience handling horses, but I have to wonder why that would be relevant here.
no subject
Because when I showed up at Ginger as a pony, your blue haired teammate assumed I was there to see you because you're apparently conceptually a horse.
When you're the only pony on a train, that makes you curious about a person.

[But he immediately assumes this is Rean's fault regardless of actual probability.]

[He's got to think about it, now. He doesn't enjoy being confused, so let's examine this, and...]
...Ah. I think I may have an answer.

[Welp, I don't want to think about that anymore.]
So, courtly peck. How does that go? Sometimes there'd be hoof kisses in Equestria, but that's it for courtly touching.
no subject
A kiss on the hand, generally. On the cheek in specific circumstances of closeness, perhaps...

....how do hand kisses work? [Just. Holds up her hands????]
no subject
[He takes her hand and bows, a proper courtly gesture! There's the hand kiss too of course.]
no subject
[....human balance is still SUCH a weird thing.]
Okay. I think I got it.
[And then will take his hand with a mimicked bow and hand kiss.]
