The Eleventh Trial: Senna

[hot_mess_express]

[As you pass through the doors of the bar, your vision blacks out. You find yourself in a void, unable to see even your own hands. For a moment, all is silent. Then, out of the murky dark shines a pair of brilliant sky blue, cat-slit eyes. Below them, a sharp, fanged smile.]

Looks like it's my turn, now.

Your mission today is to master a maze. Every room has a riddle: give it the right answer, and you get a point. Mess it up or wait too long, and you lose a point. Either way you can move on, but screw-ups have to pay a toll.

I don't really expect anything from you, but let's see if you can prove me wrong. Get as many points as you can before you reach the exit, and maybe I'll buy you a drink.

[The cat's face disappears, and the void recedes...]

The wrong answer I assume. It's not starlight, it's warm.

If I stand in the beam too long, I'll fall asleep...you should probably submit this.

[ -- ? ]

Are you a cat?

[desirestruth]

I'm related to jackals, kind of. Either way, I'm more nocturnal than anything.

[unrepairable]

[ oh that explains the ears doesn't it ]

Kind of? [ is it rude to ask... ] Well, I hope this game won't keep you up past your bedtime then.

[desirestruth]

It's a long explanation. I'll tell you outside.

[She pauses, and snerks.] Don't worry, young man, this old lady can still stay up late.

[ ... Why Does This Feel Like Flirting wait would it be disrespectful to flirt with her, she's not even his master-- ]

I... I assure you, you don't look old at all. My apologies. [ mostly for getting flustered all of a sudden ]

[desirestruth]

...It is a joke. it's alright, Kashuu.

[Head...pats? Are headpats appropriate???]

[unrepairable]

[ ... i mean he's not going to say no but he is going to just duck his head into the headpat and hope he's not too flustered red about it ]

A.. ah. Alright. Let's go on? [ before he sinks into the floor ]
