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. ]

It's simply very intimate. And like some kind of Raven then if you like....

Though on second thought I'm not calling you that. I've had enough of troublesome black birds. You can be Murakumo.

Re: ENDGAME

[fisherofmen]

I don't mind being intimate.

[ a beat ]

What kind of bird is a murakmo?

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

....Never mind I'm calling you Cypher.

[Decisive.]

Re: ENDGAME

[fisherofmen]

Whaaaat. That's not a cute name at all!

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

Did I ever call you cute?

Re: ENDGAME

[fisherofmen]

Are you saying I'm not cute?

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

Randy is cute. I have no idea about you.

Re: ENDGAME

[fisherofmen]

Isn't that why we should be friends~~~?

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

Is it? If you just want to get to know me that's fine.

Re: ENDGAME

[fisherofmen]

I mean, so we can know each other. I definitely have a vested interest in you.

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

--What?

Re: ENDGAME

[fisherofmen]

I mean, if you were trying to protect Randy, you're definitely a good person, right? You're definitely his friend, right? I want to be your friend, too.

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

--That's a lot of assumptions.

Re: ENDGAME

[fisherofmen]

Can you really say that I'm wrong?

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

I don't know if protecting someone makes me good or selfish in this case. As for friends....

[He doesn't know.]

I hope we still are.

Re: ENDGAME

[fisherofmen]

He's kind enough that I'm sure he'll still be friends with you, if you let him be.

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

He's kind, certainly.

Re: ENDGAME

[fisherofmen]

Mm.

Well, in any case, I can judge for myself whether you're good or selfish. I like both kinds of people, anyway.

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

I would hope you have at least that much judgment, but I wonder about your taste.

Re: ENDGAME

[fisherofmen]

What is that supposed to mean! Jusis!

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

Not having a preference for type of person is somewhat telling.

Re: ENDGAME

[fisherofmen]

But I do have a preference! It's both good people and selfish people!

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

[Huffs.]

But not bad and selfish people?

Re: ENDGAME

[fisherofmen]

Nobody likes bad people, right?

Re: ENDGAME

[saddleclub]

I'd say that's quite untrue.
