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?”

I don't even know where to start explaining... There was glitter involved.

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

That's a start.

Re: ENDGAME

[crimeson]

I can't hate someone when I understand where they're coming from, so...

[he shrugs]

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

And you came to that understanding...

[Weird do I feel a little jealous??]

Re: ENDGAME

[crimeson]

He saw the same memory you did, and I saw something of his as well. We also discussed stuff a lot, but... yeah.

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

... I'm glad to hear that, at least.

[Honestly he's glad for both of them despite the weird jealousy.]

Re: ENDGAME

[crimeson]

It'll make things less messy, hopefully. Plus, I'll have no reason to lie.

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

Yes. I'm simply surprised. But I think it's for the best.

Re: ENDGAME

[crimeson]

Yeaaaaah, I definitely can't argue that it's not a surprising result.

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

I can't recall him ever being so informal about anyone, actually.

Re: ENDGAME

[crimeson]

Haha, well, I did ask him to. Since it'd be really awkward if he stuck to what he was calling me before.

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

I'm surprised he acquiesced.

Re: ENDGAME

[crimeson]

[shrugs]

It's surprising, but I'm glad of it.

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

As am I.

Re: ENDGAME

[crimeson]

Oh, geez, you're making a cute face about it.

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

Pardon??

Re: ENDGAME

[crimeson]

Oh, that one's really cute.

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

[Excuse you?? He can't handle all this bully.]

... If you're going to be ridiculous, I'm leaving.

Re: ENDGAME

[crimeson]

Joke's on you, I'm always ridiculous!

[saddleclub]

I'd gathered that.

[crimeson]

So long as we're on the same page!

[saddleclub]

Hmph. I'll have you know I'm still not happy with you.

[crimeson]

Yeah, I'm not too happy with you either? I'm pretty fuckin' mad about the whole thing, you know?

[saddleclub]

That makes two of us.

[crimeson]

So air your grievances, I guess.
