FINAL TRIAL

[foundationmods]

TRIAL

After a very, very long six weeks, it has finally come. The last time everyone will need to trudge up those stairs and meet in the master suite. It's do or die time, and hopefully everyone knows what needs to be done by now.

As soon as the guests walk into the room, they will be able to smell the food that the chef has provided: duck l'orange, served up on a nice platter. Eat up everyone!

There are a few unexpected guests this time. A large group of the rats is here, and they show up in a swarm as they carry Gabe into the room, much like how they had carted him off to the Child Daycare last night. Once he is deposited in the room, Gabe will also stand up and remain there, crossing his arm and looking a bit standoffish.

They're not the only unexpected faces around here, though...

[UM












UM!!!!]

Can't you just get rid of the hollow stuff all-together? I don't really need that part.

In fact we can get rid of the shadows too, they're more trouble than they're worth.

[perfeccion]

[UM! YOURSELF!!]

Afraid not. Once the process of Hollowfication has been started, it cannot be reversed. As for whatever Moira did to you... well, you'd have to ask her about that, won't you? I will be having words with her, as well. Several of them.

[stepsinshadows]

[Fuuuuuuuck]

At least don't give me a nightmare-body. That's all I'm asking here. I like the body I already have.

[perfeccion]

Your gigai may need to be replaced with something tougher. Hollow souls are quite toxic, after all. We'll cross that bridge when we get to it. In the meantime... enjoy your little friend, there.

[Hey Gabe. Hey Gabe.

Ichigo is wearing a shit-eating grin over here.]

Training starts at 5 am every morning, Reyes.

[swordhandled]

Mind if I come to watch?

[bladeisme]

Of course. It'll help if he has someone else around to whip him into shape.

[A pause.]

Just, uh...don't jump in when it looks too dangerous, alright?

[swordhandled]

I'll hold myself back. I trust you.

[stepsinshadows]

Oi! Mijo!

[Don't do this to him that's rude.]

[bladeisme]

Yes?

[Grin grin]

[swordhandled]

Yes?

[ confused look ]

[stepsinshadows]

[WELL

THIS IS AWKWARD.]

[stepsinshadows]

...Right.

Kurosaki, this is Owain. Owain, this is Kurosaki.

I guess you're both my responsibility now, at least until I get locked up in a cell. So behave.

[bladeisme]

.....

[Just shoots him a look.]

We're already ahead of you on that, Gabe.

[swordhandled]

And aren't you Ichigo's responsibility now?

[stepsinshadows]

[WAVING OWAIN OFF]

Details. We're just all going to be seeing each other a lot, so we need to get along.

[Be nice to your new little brother, Ichigo.]

[whirlingmace]

[ Hehe ]

Hey, do you think they will let me visit?

[stepsinshadows]

You can make yourself look like anybody you want, Mija. It wouldn't be hard for you to sneak in.

[whirlingmace]

Hehe. That's true.

[ She will make the most of it. ]

[stepsinshadows]

[...okay, now that his shadows are under control, she's getting a hair-ruffle.]

Be good, alright?

[whirlingmace]

I'll try.

[ Which is important. Giving a bright smile. ]

Thank you, Rey Rey.

[swordhandled]

I suppose this makes us family now!

[stepsinshadows]

Hey, if you all decide to call me 'Tio Gabe', I won't complain.
