CITRINE

[As the game begins, each team finds themselves standing in a small ring of stones. The crystal pillar rests in the center of the circle, easily within sight and hearing of everything that will be going on. You can leave and see the other columns if you like, but once the game has started you can't see what the other teams are doing.

Also present is a small wrought-iron table, on which a curious mechanical swan rests. There's a glass panel set into its back, under which you can see a corroded key. The swan seems to be completely lifeless.]

[A scale appears on the table, with space on either end for two people to stand. An inscription is written on a plate of glass below it:

"My heroes, do you have the strength to balance your lives with each other? The white swan would ask that two of you share and halve a blessing, while the black demands that you and your partner both bear a doubled burden.]

WHITE SWAN: Blessing (something positive, mental or physical. Like a skill or a happy memory.)
BLACK SWAN: Burden (something negative, mental or physical. Like a wound or curse.)

I'll share with Percy or Burn.

What? I haven't done one yet. I want to do this.

Fine. You're getting dyslexia.

That's if we even choose.

What?

Do we choose what is to be shared?

. . .

You guys didn't even consider the blessing option.

Because we're saving your butt.

Sharing a blessing is one way to create the key, is it not?

That's because it isn't one.

I'm ... I'll share the memory of my home's destruction with Sunny. And I'll take on his injury.

[His injury is reflected back onto you, as your memory is reflected onto him. He is now convinced that his own home was destroyed in a manner very similar to Riku's.

Meanwhile, the key looks very shiny and whole ... which is good, because your teammate's head is only barely above water.]

Oh? You're nearly done. But know that the key only works once. If you use it prematurely, it will break.

... Do what I said, Rose. We'll work fast.

[ haha trying and failing to manip the water ]

[wait what wait what!!!

oh no all the sad monkeys '-']

-- Sunny?

[draping his arms over his head and curling up noooo]
