THIRD TRIAL
[ Once all the needed information has been pulled from the PARTY ZONE and nearby echelons, Davy Jones once again does his rounds to collect everyone and bring them to the theatre. ]
You are all familiar with this procedure by now, step quickly!
[ And with the blast of the organ, down the elevator starts to go, into the bowels of the ship below. Things darken and then, as before, you hear a song from the crew of the Dutchman drifting predatory below. ]
Take yer places, all of ye.
[ The circle of podiums remains, two more podiums rusted over and aged. Jones takes his place, meanwhile, looking out the window at the sea.
The shanty dies down, and the atmosphere darkens.
Welcome to your third trial. ]

[Oh wow hey way to ruin the one iota of not-negative feelings Flayn has towards you, Alice.]
Apparently it was misplaced. Rest assured I shall not make the same mistake again.

[You know, whether Alice is guilty or not, Flayn's just going to throw all her eggs in one basket here.]
I have known people in a similar position to you. Those who have someone who would give their very life for them. Not once did I ever notice them treat those who were so devoted to their cause as you have Decus - and not once did I doubt that one mourned the other when they were lost! Decus will certainly mourn you, of that I am certain, and he has that right, but you? You - you...!

Make your point and then leave it be. It's going to make the others mad.

[She wants to keep going but she is losing steam. It's hard to be angry and mean!]
I just - she should apologize for her actions to him! Obviously she cannot make up for it now, but an apology...!

That is - that is why it hurts to see her do things like that to you...!
[Because you're so goddess-damned devoted!!!!]

This hits unfortunately close to home.]

Oh, now everything makes so much more sense, actually.

Well.
No.
No she doesn't.
And she doesn't want to hurt Decus.
You can kind of see the steam ebbing from Flayn's anger, she's also not sure how to keep going as well as how to stop.]

[ She's just. Smiling. :) ]

...You can't make up for your mistreatment of Decus. But whomever we are to lose here between you...you should apologize. His devotion to you is clearly unconditional.

No, I don't think I will. My business may be everyone's business now, as it has been since last week, but my feelings haven't changed. He knew what he was getting into by staying with me and helping me get what I want. I don't have to apologize for anything.
