CORONA

[cyclists]

Corona

Every Tuesday, the Corona will meet with the Signs and be presented with three choices to help or hinder the game's progress. This may include items, effects, scenarios or more. However, they will not be provided any further information about these choices and their results will vary. They will have to pick wisely.

Should the Corona choose to not pick at all, the Signs will pick for them instead and inflict a punishment on the Corona.

When the Signs seeks to summon the Corona, a portal will appear when they find themselves alone. Upon entering the door, they will be brought into a tea room where the Signs are waiting for them. When their visit in the room concludes and they choose to exit, the portal will disappear. The Corona will find that no matter how long they spent in the tea room, no time has elapsed outside of the portal.

Additional notes:
The Corona will be allowed to ask questions about the ongoings of the games and communicate with the Signs in their weekly meetings. They will be able to also receive small hints in the game should they perform well, including game mechanics, locations and more. However, the information received will be up to the Signs' discretion.

Best of luck.

[ he waves him off ] Whatever, it's done. There's no taking it back.

[ regardless, he gestures at sol ]

That's what I've been saying! Half of these are plain weird.

[cyclists]

Like you haven't seen some weird powers before? [Slightly amused here.] But I get it. If I had to pick? These wouldn't be close to what I'd offer everybody else.

[leaberator]

[ without missing a beat: ]

Giant keys and playing cards are one thing, but this is definitely weirder. [ anyway ] Oh? What kinda weapon would you offer them?

[cyclists]

Something sturdy...like a bat maybe? But maybe not like Minato's nail bat because that seems like a really bad idea. But something you can use to swing heavy hits but still light enough to dodge with.

And more useful magic.

[leaberator]

[ Sol. please. axel can't deal with this. He just. smiles a bit, like he's biting it back ]

Sounds like you got a very specific weapon on your wish list.

[cyclists]

[There's quiet. It's quiet as Sol seems to study Axel for a long time...and then there's a hum of agreement after a while.]

Yeah. Maybe I'll tell you about it sometime if you're lucky.

[leaberator]

Yeah? I'm looking forward to it.

[cyclists]

[Soon...someday.]

Get your box open and we'll hang out another time. Promise?

[A nice way of saying they still have some work to do, but they want to see Axel again.]

[leaberator]

... Yeah. Promise.

[ he grimaces ]

And hopefully next week, I pick something better.

[cyclists]

You'll be fine. I already feel better about having you on the job than the old Corona. [Bluntly.] Trust your instincts.

[leaberator]

Being better than the guy you fired doesn't exactly fill me with confidence, but thanks. Glad you think you can trust me.

[ that last part sounds genuine, somehow ]

[cyclists]

[A hand reaches up to tap at where their temple would be if they weren't wearing a hood.]

I know I can. [They've got it memorized.]

[leaberator]

[ ... hahahahaha. he looks away, rubbing his eyes with a choked out laugh ]

'Course you do.

[cyclists]

[It's fine. They're looking away, too.]

Yeah. [...] Guess it's time to figure out how to deliver all of these. I'll see you later?

[Please.]

[leaberator]

Yeah. I should head back too. Later.

[ ... buddy ]
