Week 3, Saturday

[foundationmods]

This time, when everyone files into the studio, they aren't escorted to their seats. Instead, they are sent to podiums up on the stage arrange in a semi-circle. Everyone can see each other, and everyone is also visible to the cameras. Off to stage right is a jury box with 12 prinnies in it, all in various states of 'fancy dress'. One is wearing a suit top, another a blouse, one a huge Colonial-era wig. To stage left at box 0 is Dazai's seat, where he will be spending most of the trial, but he will get up to move around at times. And in the very center is a picture of Aqua. Once everyone is in their spots, one of the prinnies will hit a gavel against the podium in front of it, signaling the start of the trial.

It's time to find Aqua's killer.

She's my partner.

[ aaaand she slams her hands on the podium ]

Do you think that will solve anything?! Are you really, really that desperate to prove to the goddamn cameras - to all of the Foundations that we're monsters by saying, "oh, I'm so mad that someone important to me died, so it doesn't fucking matter anymore so just let me perform the fucking execution if we manage to find her goddamn killer"?!

It won't!

It won't bring her back, and it certainly won't help yourself or anyone else. Sure, it might feel good to get revenge, but that feeling won't last! And I'm not going to let somebody I know to do something incredibly stupid just because they thought it would make them feel better for like five seconds!

It's not just that, princess.

[ But before he can elaborate further, Dazai says a thing. ]

[ god she is


going to hate the outcome of this trial, isn't she. nevertheless, she won't say anything since Dazai decides to stop him with that, but she is giving him a rather judgmental look that speaks measures. ]
