The Fifth Trial

[hot_mess_express]

Who: ALL
When: Day 11, noon
Where: Outer Space

Come hither, Heroes. Prove thy worth.

[ That familiar silence befalls everything following the call, and just like before the third trial there’s a glittering void, points of light twinkling in the air. As you step into the space it expands, seeming to consume you, the Aurora, and all that exists in general. There’s a feeling of vertigo as this happens, frozen lights swirling all about you and once again it's all accompanied by obnoxious giggling.

This time, however, when the darkness fades, you're...

Back inside of the Aurora? No, this is actually an entirely different train. Outside the windows, you can only see wispy, dancing lights illuminating the surroundings, which you can't quite make out. The doors outside don't open. ]

Pretty serious, yeah. No time for cute little traditions like that.

[ ha ha ha ]

What did you do?

Re: ENDGAME

[crimeson]

Shot my teammate until she couldn't move under her own power so she wouldn't go and get herself killed so Clover wouldn't insist on going down with her.

[he's so fucking salty]

1/2

2/2

[cawnflict]

... ha ha ha. [ His laughing is... weird. Not really amused, but knowing. ] Really... none of us can keep our wits in these, can we?

[crimeson]

Not even a little bit, apparently.

[cawnflict]

...and you didn't come after us at all, did you?

[crimeson]

...Ah, the sabotage opportunity? No, we didn't use it.

[cawnflict]

[ A sigh. ]

I really thought someone would have.

[crimeson]

You didn't either, right?

[cawnflict]

No. I don't know about the others, but it felt like bad taste to mess with you after the last time.

[ his teammate likes you too much so he is playing nice. ]

[crimeson]

Ha... yeah, that's a good point. That teammate of yours seemed pretty upset about the whole thing.

[cawnflict]

[ :^) YES HE FOUND THAT OUT. ]

That's one way to put it.

[crimeson]

Should I ask about the other ways, or...?

[cawnflict]

You can try, but I'm going to let you wonder, instead.

[crimeson]

I'll accept that, then. This trial was tiring enough without me borrowing trouble.

[cawnflict]

...it must have been. Aren't you worried they'll get back at you for shooting someone?

[crimeson]

...The ones running the trial, you mean?

[cawnflict]

Mm. They all seem to have differing personalities.

[crimeson]

Hard to say, given their differences. I guess I'll deal with it if it comes up.

[cawnflict]

[ are you gonna be a problem child too

how cute ]

Have you seen zombies before? They seemed popular.

[crimeson]

...I haven't. What's so popular about that?

[cawnflict]

I haven't been able to figure it out either.
