WEEK 3 - TRIAL

[foundationmods]

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...


VICTIM: SHIROU EMIYA, HIMEKO INABA, AND MUNEHISA IWAI

23 GUESTS REMAIN.

That's not right! Vanitas, don't be mean to Atsushi.

[moonlightbeast]

He's not wrong, this is entirely my fault.

[Well. Partially. But Atsushi's self-loathing is talking here so.]

[whirlingmace]

It's not. You're only one vote. Mimi would have... Mimi still would have been voted even if you had voted for me.

[ Rubbing her hand against her face. ]

[moonlightbeast]

You know, the funny thing is, I didn't even vote for either of them. In the end, I just fell in line like I always do.

[He's starting to think that he should stay like that, honestly. He's no good as a leader.]

[enter_the_darkness]

Words only hurt when there's some shred of truth to them.

[whirlingmace]

He's already hurting, Vanitas. He already takes things super duper hard.

[enter_the_darkness]

Then, he shouldn't preach friendship, when he doesn't even have it in him to prove he's actually someone's friend.

[enter_the_darkness]

[ ... Also, belatedly: ]

Vanitas...?

[whirlingmace]

Do you prefer Eddie?

[enter_the_darkness]

[ He... doesn't have a response to that, at first. He's just looking away, a hint of contemplation on his face as he just shakes his head. ]
