You open the door and find yourself among a crowd. There is a festival of some kind going on - there's bright lights, smiling faces, food, music, dancing... it's almost possible to forget you just came through a door in a murder hotel. The longer you spend here, the more you forget what brought you to the hotel, and the more convinced you become that you have always been a part of this world, where the festival is. Eventually, someone you recognize from the hotel appears before you and asks if you wan to go back. If you say yes, you will return to the hallway, completely unharmed. If you say no, you will become completely immersed in the festivities, and will continue taking part in them until you drop dead from exhaustion, at which point you will find yourself in the hallway, extremely worn-out for the next half an hour. In either case, only four minutes have passed.
[Well. This is honestly better than what Rin could have expected. He's just wide-eyed as he stares at all of the sights and sounds of the festival. He's no stranger to them, but it's been a while since he's been to one.
He'll grab for Cloud's arm to tug him along to look at the stalls. Surely there has to be a game they can play?]
[ imagine if i said rin grabbed his fucked up arm just to be mean. but no before cloud can be skeptical of showing up to the gold saucer a festival, he is literally dragged in and he kind of yelps in surprise ]
Kid, slow down. [ why is he being dragged!! here!!! ]
But no Rin is at least aware enough not to grab an injured arm. He just laughs and points towards one of the stalls. It seems to be one of those 'ring toss' stalls, where you have to get a ring over the top of a bottle to win a prize. For some reason, it doesn't cost money to play the games here. Strange. They'll just get handed a basket of rings so they can toss them.
[ the dice are way nicer to him because i rolled a twenty. where were those rolls in the cyoa. anyway he lands a ring on the bottle!! they get a prize!!!! he looks at the available options and. grimaces. ]
[Rin looks down at the bird, then up at Cloud. He has no idea either.
But there is the smell of fried chicken nearby. Delicious, but questionable, given how close it is to the stuffed chocobos. Still, that food smells so good it becomes easy to forget about the hotel, doesn't it?]

Can Cloud do it?]
no subject
You know these are rigged, right...?
[ but he is picking it up ]
no subject
'trying' being the important word there, because he is definitely not getting a ring on any of the bottles.]
no subject
... There a reason you're not talking?
[ not that he minds the silence but rin is kind of a chatterbox normally ]
no subject
Or, well. 'Quiet'. Since a festival is loud and all. Also the dice say Rin doesn't get a single ring around a bottle, how does Cloud do?]
no subject
[ the dice are way nicer to him because i rolled a twenty. where were those rolls in the cyoa. anyway he lands a ring on the bottle!! they get a prize!!!! he looks at the available options and. grimaces. ]
... Pick whatever.
no subject
There is absolutely a chocobo here, and that's what Rin will pick. A little stuffed chocobo.]

[ he is just looking at it like what. where. howst. ]
