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!]

Will you, now?

[Said by Loki a comfortable conversational distance away. Who also happens to be an illusion. The real Loki is right next to Felix, if he has a good sense for that...]

[ Except now Felix has a partner in crime. He starts to turn to the fake Loki before a look of confusion comes over him and he slowly turns back to the real Loki. ]

Huh, he was right.

[You jerk, cheating before he can finish his cheating. He gives Felix a quick peck on the cheek before moving away and dropping his illusions.]

What are you referring to?

[ Shrugs ]

Just thought you were a more direct kind of guy.

I have no wish to kiss any of you on the lips.

[ Bursts into laughter ]

You've got standards! I like~ it.

[He snorts]

Of course. I am a god. Or are you basing your assumptions of my preferences on those ridiculous mortal myths?
malignstar: (will you play this game)

[personal profile] malignstar 2020-03-16 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
I never base my assumptions of people on what others say.
