WEEK 2 - EXECUTION

[foundationmods]

EXECUTION

Just like before, you all get up in the morning...but you know that after today, there will be less of you.

The Lady appears again, leading you all up the stairs to the third floor, just like before. You arrive at the chapel - where a screen near the altar is already playing a video, the sound of the most beautiful instrument in the world washing over you all as you take a seat in the pews.

The Lady puts down some tarp near the altar, as if expecting this to get messy. When she's finished, she sets her gaze on all of you, her beautiful face somehow awful during this moment before someone dies.

"Good morning. Shall we begin this execution?"

Comments

[jumpedtheshark]

Perfectly.

[A reassuring smile.]

I’m... just wondering if she’ll be able to go through with it.

[Drowning isn’t an easy way to go.]

[messianic]

... Yeah. I know.

[He sighs, shaking his head.]

Both of them deserve better than this.

[THE FUCKING MONSTERS.]

[jumpedtheshark]

Most people do...

[Tsumugi’s eyebrows raise at the Barghests declaration of victory.]

... But it’s not what they get, right?

[messianic]

[At that dramatic declaration of victory... Minato's eyes just close, his shoulders drooping a little.

...]

No.

It's not what they get at all.

[That's the case for so many people...and he just wishes, sometimes, that the world wasn't this unfair.]

[jumpedtheshark]

I guess we’ll have to start the hunt again now...

[Her gaze shifts to Akira.]

... and discuss how to protect a certain someone.

[She only wonders if the other Mafia will hold off killing him, in favor of saving him for the new Barghest.]

[messianic]

.... Yeah. That's the next step.

[A slow breath in.]

We can't give up yet. [Not now, not ever.]

[jumpedtheshark]

Yeah, you’re right.

[A smile.]</small€ Maybe we’ll get him next week?
