The Second Trial

[hot_mess_express]

Who: game participants!
When: Day 5, night
Where: ~outside~

[A silence abruptly descends upon the jungle. For a moment, all is calm, and then a heavy gust of wind blows in, making the Aurora sway. In your mind is a call some of you have heard before:

Come hither, Heroes. Prove thy worth.

This time, however, there’s no worn-out house. Instead there’s a large tent -- dirty and imposing, with a jet black flag above it, it looks like a command tent right out of a medieval battlefield. The canvas is spattered in mud and blood, and white feathers are scattered all around it, carpeting the ground for several feet.

By your own will or by unexplained compulsion, you are drawn to the tent, to meet your second Trial. As you enter, a man’s voice, clear and resonant, rings out.]

“O unfortunate pawns of the Light, answer me this: What is Justice?”

[After you’ve all left the room, you’ll find yourselves back in the little clearing outside the train. Those of you who passed out will wake up lying in the grass, albeit with any glass injuries you received. The tent is gone, and in its place are just a few remaining feathers.

Up in the sky, a few new stars in goldenrod, apple, & violet have appeared!]

Re: ENDGAME

[friskmanagement]

[You notice stars in the team's color are up in the sky again. Apparently you did okay.]

Uh.

[You look around.]

Nobody's dead, right?

[voreaciously]

[FOR

80H angrily climbs to her feet.]

[So Randy is uh. Shirtless, and also covered in glass injuries because he DIDN'T HAVE A SHIRT ON WHILE GETTING DROPPED THROUGH A STORM OF BROKEN GLASS, so also wet with water and not just blood.

mostly he's. sitting up. and growling in annoyance.]

Fucking seriously!

Re: ENDGAME

[bowtiedbones]

Re: ENDGAME

[nihilmancy]

Re: ENDGAME

[ruinatings]

[WHAT IN THE WORLD YOU GUYS]

[voreaciously]

Re: ENDGAME

[dragonblooming]

[ guess I shouldnt try to avoid you after that but ] [ coming over ] I'm sorry I got you hurt. [ aaand leaving again there. the perfect interaction ]

[assassinatedassassin]

[Just kind of lays there in the grass for a bit, maybe licking a nasty cut on the back of his hand. Why this.]

Re: ENDGAME

[nihilmancy]

[Still laughing!]

I did it! We won!

[ewestmarch]

What did we win?

[someone hasn't noticed the sky]

Re: ENDGAME

[friskmanagement]

[You scratch your head as you kneel down next to them.]

We were gonna say not to trust the mirror, but. I guess it was okay, in the end.

Re: ENDGAME

[cawnflict]

[ Being able to fly managed to not help at all, and now he's sitting in the grass looking like he's got a headache.

As he gently picks shards of glass out of his wings before they actually nick anything too important. ]

I should have known.

Re: ENDGAME

[unaffective]

[ actually immediately getting up and going back to the train, with barely any consideration for her injuries

byyyyeeeeeeeee ]

[agoodnoe]

[ Well that was unpleasant and he still has no idea what actually happened as he sits up and absently brushes himself off. ]

[ But after a moment of taking in his surroundings, his eyes shift from purple to red, and notable fangs are suddenly sticking out from his mouth as his eyes shift toward the nearest bleeding source that is not himself. ]

... Does anyone else smell that?

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

[Sitting up covered in glass cuts, yay.]

Idiots.

Re: ENDGAME

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ here is a drowned rat hissing like a REALLY PISSED OFF TEAKETTLE as she picks shards of glass out of herself, wincing ]

—why can't people actually discuss things before doing them, is five seconds worth of thought really too much to ask—

[ ...it looks like this may just be how she deals with games. though... she definitely seems a little more genuinely angry than the last one. but that's probably fair, what with the whole soaked and cut up by glass thing.

also she uh. appears to be bleeding black? that... is definitely black. and kind of gooey, despite the water. gross! ]

Re: ENDGAME

[bowtiedbones]

[gingerly stepping around glass to pick up the remaining feathers, what did you guys DO]

Yyyyikes?

Re: ENDGAME

[hissoff]

[ GUESS WHO'S LYING ON THE GROUND AGAIN

just. kind of giggling to himself. maybe tearing up? it's definitely just from laughter.

he's all cut up but otherwise seems okay. ]

Re: ENDGAME

[axeboyfriend]

[ He looks around and--- wow, the other side sure got injured. ]

What the hell?

Re: ENDGAME

[howlsitgoin]

Nnnnnghh...

[Here lies a good police wolf, with glass in his fur.]

That was so stupid!
