FIFTH TRIAL

[bathymetric]

[ It's not terribly long, once everything has been found, before Davy Jones heads out to round you all up once more and take you into the theatre. At least plenty of you are around the same area, so it probably doesn't take terribly long.

The ride down to the trial room is the same as ever - a blast of the organ, a slow descent. It's really starting to become clear, though, just how your numbers are decreasing. You're already down three, counting the absence of Chloe, potentially more when you come back up.

The crew of the Dutchman is singing as Jones lets you out into the trial room. ]

To business, passengers. I am about if you need guidance.

[ The circle of podiums is less populated than ever. So many of you are islands now, so to speak.

The song dies down, the waters quiet.

Welcome to your fifth trial.. ]

...demons aren't weak to holy water where I'm from.

[scouserer]

Well, obviously I wasn't talkin' about your demons, was I?

[sivard]

Then don't make weird generalized statements?

[scouserer]

It wasn't weird, you're makin' it weird.

[The girls are fiiiighting]

[sivard]

By... pointing out you need to explain what you're talking about in greater detail?

[you do you, man]

[scouserer]

Quiet. How many demons have you exorcised in your life?

[sivard]

I've met dozens and fought more? Eizen is friends with a couple of them.

Any human or animal or plant can become one, and they don't all lose their minds.

[magycks]

Yeah, Constantine, your experience isn't universal.

[scouserer]

Shut up.

[ltcommandroid]

This conversation is not pertinent.

[can yall fuckin chill]

[magycks]

Well, excuse me for trying to reinforce the endless possible experiences of the multiverse, I guess.

[ not ever in her goddamn life, once, even for five seconds. ]

[magycks]

Ooh, touchy.
