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?"

[The Lady continues speaking once she's certain she has everyone's attention, as Makoto arrives, flanked by Staff.]

Every execution needs an executioner.

Akira Kurusu. You have been chosen as Makoto Niijima's executioner today. Please join me and your victim up before the Altar.

[Without waiting for a response, she continues -]

Please pick from one of these methods of execution: Hanging, Drowning, Stabbing, Strangling, Immolation, Electrocution, or the Iron Maiden. You have ten minutes to decide.

[Before they can say or do anything, Phil suddenly shouts from the peanut gallery.]

Hey Lady! I have something to say to you!

[Phil quickly clears his throat before continuing.]

Don't you feel a little... rigid in your execution options?

[foundationmods]

[....She pauses.]

Excuse me?

[justfists]

[she's just barely awake.

also uh. her cheek is clearly bandaged, and her entire front, white shirt is stained in blood. And wrinkled. she slept like that. it's fine.]

It's already time? Ugh, five more minutes...

[she can only barely notice Phil?]

[xenoqueen]

[Oh my God he's doing something stupid again isn't he]

[tacticalespionageaction]

[Sure fucking is.]

[moonlightbeast]

[And here he thought this week was done being this week.]

[imstuck]

You know, just the same options for execution week in and week out. I know we're only on week three but how long will it be before we're just tired of watching someone get hung.

And that's why I have the perfection solution for you to switch things up. Just for one week.

[xenoqueen]

[please control your goddamn boyfriend]

[foundationmods]

[The Lady just.

Looks at him

Squints

And then sighs.]

Just give me the vial, Phil Connors.

[tacticalespionageaction]

[Nah let him see where he's going with this.]

[theycallhimmrpchan]

Ah...? But no one was ha...

[Ryoga stops in midsentence - wait, was Phil onto something?]

[whirlingmace]

[ Oh no Akira ]

[imstuck]

[Phil frowns slightly as he pulls out a vial. If someone were to look closely, they would notice a rather shoddy looking label on it that says "Medic's Poison" on it.]

Damn, you're psychic. I had a whole pitch prepared for this.

[He hands it to The Lady.]

I don't even know if it will work honestly. It could just be some dishwater.

[xenoqueen]

[oh god youre just as bad as him]

[purrtagonist]

[. . . . . . right okay so Phil is doing a thing and Akira is the executioner and there is SO MUCH TO PROCESS HERE, but]

[then he notices the blood]

[and suddenly, nothing else matters]

M-- Makoto!

[tacticalespionageaction]

[;)]

[foundationmods]

[Oh my god.]

I'm sparing the rest of the proceedings from an hour's worth of con-manning.

[WOW.]

I will add it to the list. Akira Kurusu, you may also pick making Makoto Niijima drink the contents of this vial.

[purrtagonist]

[. . . . .. ]

[kind of. glancing over at Phil, like. . . ???]

[justfists]

[Even she's a little?! she rubs her eye. What are you doing, just kill her already?]

Why is this the week with all the stupid exceptions?

[imstuck]

Well I'll have you know I'm a damn good conman.

[Phil slinks back into the peanut gallery but not before aggressively winking at Akira and pointing at the bottle.

Do it Akira!!]

[rosebridled]

[ s i g h ]

[imstuck]

Because I'm the best conman in the world.

[;)]

[justfists]

[SHE'S SKEPTICAL]

I wanted a slow, painful death, but now I just want to end it.
