round 6

[CONTINUE + 3] week 1 || act: indict

[Saturday dawns, bright and early again. No one comes to the Inn, but you feel compelled to go to the Core anyway.

It's as if you're forced to. As if....it's inescapable.

You make the walk past everything, until you are directly in the Core, where some kind of whitish, rainbow-gleaming liquid can be seen below.

In this area, you are led to a wider platform that is still open to the liquid before, with the handrails in place - where there are some seats around, and a familiar face waiting to speak with you.

This...for all of you, it is a familiar sight.

It is a trial location.

You are here to find the killer...and convict one of your own, in a murder that makes no sense.

But you have no choice.

You can only forge ahead....and try to find out the truth.]

VICTIM: YOSHI NANASE

It's not mocking you if people actually care! And people here do actually care.

I just said stop telling me thaaaaaat!

Not telling you won't make peoples concern go away! It won't make them stop caring!

Stoooooop telling me you care!! Stop torturing meeee!

No one here is going to lie to you about their feelings!

Now you're just lying to me about the lying! How the h-hell am I supposed to believe you?! You looked at me like y-you would have liked me to disappear on the spot when we first met!

I don't like you! I've never liked you! You're a bully, you're mean to everyone you meet, and you try to turn it back on them! But that doesn't mean I want you to just disappear! And Gio's a way better person than I am, and nicer too!

Y-You're not allowed to care about someone unless they earn it! Especially someone you never liked! What the hell kind of sense does that make!?

People can care about whoever they want! You don't have to wait for someone to earn it before you start caring!

You just said you never liked me! W-Why should I believe anything you say!?

If someone wanted to hurt you they'd just pretend to be your friend and then turn their backs on you once things got hard. I'm not going to pretend to be your friend, but I'm not giving up on you!

...Until when? It suits you? Great. I feel reaaaally wanted. Hooray.

Until you don't need anyone yelling at you anymore!

...

This is stupid.

...

Yeah, it is.

But... not everyone's out to get you. It pisses me off that you can't see that.

You don't even know what you're angry about anymore. "Not everyone's out to get you... everyone just hates you and never liked you."

...Yeah, much better.

Just because I don't like you doesn't mean I hate you.

I'm not any good with feelings. I don't know how normal people interact with each other because I've never been a normal person who has normal interactions with other people.

But I know that there are people here who care about you even if you don't like yourself, and I know I don't want to see you be hurt or hurt other people.
