week 2 - trial

week two trial



[At 9 AM precisely, the old grandfather clock chimes once again, and the doors to the drawing room are opened. They will remain open until everyone has come inside, after which they will shut behind them. It is not possible to leave on your own, although perhaps if you have a specific purpose the hostess will allow you to go, as long as you are accompanied by a partner.

The room is set up comfortably, with several tables by the fireplace set out to assist with the trial. The Hostess will also remain in a seat near the fireplace, next to the scales on the mantle. At lunch, the doors will open to bring in a large meal on an automatically rolling buffet, and at 3 PM, tea and finger sandwiches will be served. You'll be able to enjoy the trial in comfort, of course, but the information cards set out on tables will not allow you to forget your true purpose here.

At 7 PM, the trial will adjourn for the day. Players will be escorted by the Hostess to the ballroom, where dinner and wine will be served until 10 PM, at which point players will be required to return to their wings in groups with their wingmates and will be locked in their bedrooms until 8:30 AM the following morning.]

[This is just too much to deal with right now, disappearing into the scarf. And saying something in response that is utterly muffled by the scarf.]

[teenspirit]

Huh? What was that?

[godwhisperer]

[He lowers his scarf enough to speak.]

I...I said I hope you understand the challenge you claim to undertake.

[teenspirit]

I think so. After all, we share a special connection through our shared world, don't we? Should we all get to leave this place and return to our own worlds... You and I will be going back together. When that time comes, I want to shake your hand like a true ally.

[godwhisperer]

[The revelation that she wants to shake his hand rather than hold it doesn't actually make him any less flustered. In fact, it makes him a little happier to hear her talk about them like they could be comrades. It's less frightening, but still a nice thought.]

I see. You are a bold one to attempt it.

The only one who could do such a thing and survive the encounter would be one possessed of singular powers. And your card says no such thing, and yet...

[teenspirit]

How do you know that I am not just waiting for a good time to make a dramatic reveal?

[ She smiles her usual sweet smile. While she's friendly to everyone, there's something about Gundam that seems especially admirable to her, so a part of her really does genuinely want to befriend him. She's not sure why, but it's become an important and determined goal. ]

[godwhisperer]

Hohoho.

[He chuckles, although his smile is a little more thoughtful than his ordinary smirk.]

If so, I look forward to seeing it.
