Week 4, Saturday

[foundationmods]

[As everyone files into the studio once more, they will be invited up on stage instead of to their audience seats as they normally are. On the far left of the stage is a set of 16 chairs, one for each living contestant, arranged in two rows of 8. On the right is a podium for Dazai to stand at, and in the center is a big board with spaces and numbers on it.

Once everyone gets settled in, it's time for the game.]

[Saki can't watch - the sound makes her close them out of reflex.

It might be for the best.

One hand remains over her mouth to stifle her sobs as the other wraps around herself, shaking in her horror, in her grief.

She can't do this. She just can't do this anymore.]

[ while he doesn't feel like he has the right to do this, after everything he's done...oda wraps his arms around her. ]

I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Saki.

[There's nothing for her to say, even if she could.

So instead, she stands, entire body tense and shaking with her cries.

She's lost again.

She's lost again, and she's completely helpless to do anything about it.]

[Karen is also very sorry she can't help be here for Saki now because she's busy getting knocked over for Leo care purposes.]
