TRIAL II

[lesmodsalouette]

Trial

At least this time you were given ample time to wreck your sleep schedule before the clocks gong at midnight (no apologies for such little sleep in the first place withstanding). The carnival looks just as you remember it, with the banquet and drinks refreshed. The spread is the same as before with two new additions: a platter of cute cupcakes that might remind you of someone, along with baozi of all types.

Like before, mind the pit in the middle and settle in to vote out the guilty party for the death of Siobhan "Shiv" Roy. With the benefit of experience, maybe this will be a little bit easier? With the mood weather lifted, there won't be any floods at trial at least.

(( OOC: Welcome to your first trial! You'll have 7 hours (until 8 PM EDT/5 PM PDT) to vote one (1) person guilty of murder. As this is scapegoat style, a correct vote is not necessary. Please remember to vote unless otherwise discussed with the mods, as that is our AC for this game ))

I'd say that, too.

( SHAMELESS!!! but also happy Ish would say so!! He seems amused by his demeanor. (He's also happy Ish apparently agrees torta di cocco is the best. Hwylryn will concede to one thing.)

Ish is already eating a baozi but Hwyrlyn hands him a cupcake as he bites into his own. )

Did you make all this?

[calamitish]

[ well guess he has a cupcake now too. ]

I conjured it, I can't cook.

[ so yeah but do you think these hands can whip cream and dice onions? nahhhh. ]

[coldseep]

( sees ish and [hands him a food] [hands him a food] [hands him a food] [hands him a food] )

Could you teach me that magic?

[calamitish]

I'm not giving you your magic back so you can make a cupcake.

[siffriend]

[ Now hold on. ]

I think you should.

[calamitish]

No.

[siffriend]

Sweets are the most important thing in the world.

[ They deserve!!!!! To have someone that can conjure up sweets at any moment!!!!!!!





Hwy do NOT take this as a tactic to get on Siffrin's good side it WILL work. ]

[coldseep]

(




Hwy hands Siffrin a cupcake :)? )

[siffriend]

I can get one myself.

[











They will take the cupcake regardless. If the effects were still going, there would be the betrayal of sparkles and sunshine, so thank the blinding stars-- ]

[coldseep]

Hehe. Enjoy!

( *hwylryn will remember this )

[siffriend]

[ Yeah well agree that they get cupcakes whenever and you can have a brand new friend in seconds--

Siffrin will enjoy this cupcake though. Mmmmmm. Sweets. ]

[calamitish]

If he wants more cupcakes, I'll make him more cupcakes.

[coldseep]

What if I want torta di cocco?

[siffriend]

[ oh!!!!!!!!!!!!






yeah what if he wants that siffrin's definitely not interested, ]

[antline]

Torta di....tortoise?

[calamitish]

[ :THINKING_EMOJI: ]

If I get you one, will you stop asking me for things this trial?

[siffriend]

I want some, too.

[calamitish]

[ SIGH.

gesturing to hwylryn. ]

Fine if you can get him to agree.

[coldseep]

Isn't that a really good reason to give me my magic back? Just a little bit?

[calamitish]

No, it really isn't.

[coldseep]

Aw, is it cuz I'm stronger than you?

[safetycheck]

[ GET HIS ASS ]

[calamitish]

[ out all the things, this gets him to laugh. ]

You're not going to bait me that way, but nice try.

[coldseep]

( no but he laughs back )

Hey, when you put up that sunny little space again, after the execution, why don't you invite me in too? Let's fight, for fun.

( Despite everything, this sounds genuine and, weirdly, friendly. (me wan bite voice) he wan fight..........

In any case, as an expression of nature, his ability to express his powers and control the world around him asks him to channel magic from the ecosystem around him - a whirlpool uses the water around it to form, after all. Ish is the one returning his powers in an artificial space, not the nature spirits of Hwy's home - so his magic ecosystem here begins and ends with Ish, and whatever Ish provides, as that is what he must channel and express. It creates a bit of a paradox, and would likely make it difficult to actually kill Ish - hence why he didn't even bother slam against the space walls or anything during his last run...

But none of that is an issue when just fighting for fun :D )

[calamitish]

You should be grateful you got to go in there once already.

[ though it seems like he's considering it, even if it's only for a moment. ]

Fighting isn't my idea of fun, unfortunately. If you want to play with me, it'll have to be a different way.
