[skinstealer]

You settle on the username [SEA_AND_SKY]- it seems to feel...resonant, in your head, and it involves your cute new plush friend. 

...You hope Monty will like it.

You close the laptop after setting the program up, making sure everything is stashed on your bed- especially Sky. You even tuck the doll in for good measure, giving it a little pat.

Time to go.

You step out into the next trial chamber, and are immediately overwhelmed. You’re on a pillar, but there’s others all around you, and by the look of it, water surrounding them...after a steep, scary drop.

The door closes behind you before you can back out.

 

A familiar voice calls out to you, an equally familiar face peeking over the edge of a far pillar, way above your head. 

 
SUZANNE: See! 
SUZANNE: See, I’m glad to see you!
SUZANNE: Max’s room is open up here! 
SUZANNE: You can-
 

 

Atop another pillar, between See and Suzanne, a less familiar TCP stands up. They seem to be wearing a heavy duty belt covered in...pouches?

  
????: Oh finally, more people!
????: That took way too long.
  

From the sound of it, they'd been sitting there a while.

????: Are you all fun? I hope you're fun. 
 

Suzanne startles, seemingly not having noticed the other TCP come in- too focused on Max, you figure. 

SUZANNE: ...I...I guess I'm fun?
SUZANNE: What's your name?
  

 
????: I'm TeeVee!
 

They look almost like they're posing a bit.

 
TEEVEE: Good answer by the way.
TEEVEE: What about your names?
TEEVEE: I need to know who I'm about to beat.
 

TeeVee steps closer to the edge of the pillar they're on, they sound very confident. Suzanne looks a bit on edge, glancing over at you nervously.

Looks like she wants you to answer first. 

[cosmo]

panic and tell them you're normal

[Lilium Mortem]

I'm see please don't beat me, I don't want people to get hurt, this is my friend, Suzzane, her friend is hurt and I can help, it's kind of important..

[seppawku]

beat at uh, beat at what? like physically or in smth specific here or. 'beat up' is usually the phrasing 4 physical so hmm. we dont rly know what the trial is yet tho idt

[victorianflorist]

T pose and start chanting "I'm normal"

[King-Clod]

Oh I'm See! Our names rhyme!!

[skinstealer]

 

You panic a bit, not sure what to make of the whole “beat” line. 

You do the best idea you have at the moment and T-pose.

 
SEE: I’m...See! Don’t beat me up- I’m normal!
SEE: I’m really normal, like, super normal!
SEE: TOTALLY normal! I’m normal!
 

Suzanne looks at you like you’ve lost it.

 

TeeVee stares, stepping back slightly- their voice is a little less sure now. 

 
TEEVEE: Beat you up? What? 
TEEVEE: This is a competition, I'm gonna win.
TEEVEE: And it's not a fighting competition, so I don't gotta beat anyone up.
 

 

TeeVee turns to Suzanne, clearly concerned by what's happening.

 
TEEVEE: Is this how they usually are?
SUZANNE: Um...no, not usually.
SUZANNE: But I told it about dealing with another TCP that wants to hurt people, and I guess it must be pretty scared about that-
SEE: Right, uh! Suzanne's friend got hurt, and I need to get over there to help out! 
SEE: It's really important!
TEEVEE: Oh well. That makes sense then.
TEEVEE: Sorry for the phrasing, let me try again.
 

 
TEEVEE: I'm gonna win, and you're gonna lose! But you totally can try to keep up if you want.
 

TeeVee backs up a few paces before crouching down, about to taking a running jump off their platform.

 
TEEVEE: I do hope you can help your friend though, that sucks.
SEE: Thanks!
SEE: ALSO OUR NAMES RHYME
 

You're doing great.

[Lilium Mortem]

You can win, I'm just gonna go over to where max's room is, I don't really need more ipmressions right now, I'd rather help suzzane.

seconding

[King-Clod]

Oh wait, we jumped off a platform once and got hurt. Does Teevee know what they're doing? Are they gonna get hurt? Can we warn them not to be too reckless?

they seem pretty experienced in this, i wouldn't want to offend them by implying otherwise

[skinstealer]

 

SEE: Oh, and...you can win!
SEE: I’m just gonna go over to where Max’s room is. 
SEE: I don’t really need more impressions right now, anyway!
SEE: I’d rather help Suzanne out.
TEEVEE: Not exactly how that works, See.
TEEVEE: You need to make an impression to leave, I think.
 

 

TeeVee takes off running, jumping off the edge of his platform towards another one.

TEEVEE: HOPEFULLY LIKE THIS!

[Lilium Mortem]

Ignore TeeVee and ask Suzane how to safely get over to her.(unless TeeVee gets hurt then try and help them)

[King-Clod]

Hey sure, let's see how this goes for them. If they land the jump, give them a little round of applause! If they don't, rush in with healing.
