WEEK 3 - TRIAL

The morning seemed so far away yesterday - yet, it also seems too soon when morning comes and you are all yet again ushered to the third floor by The Lady. The Captain is there, in all of his....wait, no, he's asleep.
The doors close, and...nothing happens. There's still the box labeled 'VOTES' in his lap on the couch, but...
On the table is a letter, that reads 'Only one person may be voted for execution this week. Please figure out who that will be during the time limit.'
As you finish reading that, music begins to play in the room...
23 GUESTS REMAIN.

Akira Kurusu. I impart upon you the role of The Savior. You have the choice to save someone at the expense of your own life.
....may I assume that you are using your role to take Minato Arisato's place as the Executed?

[but. . .]
[. . . it's not fair for Minato to have to die twice, is it? and this. . . is what his heart tells him to do]
Yes. That's right.
no subject
Very well.
Akira Kurusu will be executed tomorrow, using the power of his role. None may overturn this - unless the Magistrate wills it, though they must speak now or allow the judgement to be passed. I will remain here for 20 minutes, to allow the Magistrate to come to a decision.

I'm sorry. I can't just let you sacrifice yourself like that, Akira. You were the first person who was there for me, who gave me hope, when I thought ... we wouldn't have a chance.
[ ... ]
I'll overturn the vote.

He drags in a shuddering breath, hands clenched into fists.
... He doesn't know what to do anymore... but this is horrible.
This isn't what he wanted at all, and that small smile on Akira's face is horrible as well.]

She'll stand by Minato, at least, press a light hand against the back of his shoulder, even if she has no idea at all what to do. There is no good outcome at this point.]

It tightens into a fist, even as her face goes stormy, even as she takes a reflexive step forward and then stops herself, even as she closes her eyes. Opens them. There's a clear fury in them, but she looks between him, and Minato, and doesn't say anything.]

[He reaches out towards Akira, but he's not fast enough to stop him.
Boy, this sure is familiar.]
