SIXTH TRIAL

[ It's the same as the other weeks. Two bodies, some time to look, and then Davy Jones comes around to take those of you who are left into the theatre and into the elevator. His expression is dark, difficult to read.

The trip down feels slower than ever. The elevator has gotten so empty, don't you think?

As it reaches its usual destination, the crew of the Dutchman is performing once again. The clouds above have started to darken the once clear tropical waters.

The podiums await you. ]


At yer places! Find who is responsible for all of this!

[ Your numbers can't support many more weeks of this, can they?

Welcome to your sixth trial. ]

[...........]

Somebody went through Scott's pockets looking for something.
leaveittomother: (12)

[personal profile] leaveittomother 2021-03-14 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't find anything.

[She taps the thick stack of papers...and a bunch of Canadian currency just sort of falls out.]

I decided this would work.
cethflayn: (we must be careful)

[personal profile] cethflayn 2021-03-14 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh hey Flayn's

Well she's still by Lalli but all this shit going on just makes her expression turn sadder]
sivard: (❅ i'll give it as fast)

[personal profile] sivard 2021-03-14 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
Why why go after him?
leaveittomother: (2)

[personal profile] leaveittomother 2021-03-14 12:17 am (UTC)(link)
Tell me this: what would have happened if that roller coaster had derailed later in the day?
sivard: (☁ another day to run away)

[personal profile] sivard 2021-03-14 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
I don't see how that's relevant.
jibunwo: (icarus is flying too close to the sun)

[personal profile] jibunwo 2021-03-14 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
...Probably nothing. Does anyone spend much time in there at all?
leaveittomother: (2)

[personal profile] leaveittomother 2021-03-14 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
You would have for one of those after parties.
jibunwo: (dress me up and watch me die)

[personal profile] jibunwo 2021-03-14 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Rikudou-...

[The worst part is, he's kind of just mad he didn't think of that first.]
leaveittomother: (2)

[personal profile] leaveittomother 2021-03-14 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
The problem was everyone in this room was thinking too small.
jibunwo: (look who makes their own bed)

[personal profile] jibunwo 2021-03-14 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
...

[No, fuck it, he'll admit it.]

You're right. You did it to protect your child, didn't you? So of course you would want to be sure such a thing either killed us all, or was so chaotic as to be unsolvable.
sivard: (☁ another day to run away)

[personal profile] sivard 2021-03-14 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
...I'll admit, that is the ruthlessness I'd expect from a situation like this.
jibunwo: (icarus is flying towards an early grave)

[personal profile] jibunwo 2021-03-14 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
I've been slipping, I think. That's exactly the kind of thing Zero would have done. Destroy as much as necessary, so long as the goal is achieved.

I can't help but respect that.
sivard: (⚡ never in the mood and)

[personal profile] sivard 2021-03-14 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
...You're gonna have to explain that one.

[Aren't you Zero???]
jibunwo: (every drop every smidge)

[personal profile] jibunwo 2021-03-14 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
Later, perhaps.

[He doesn't know anymore, and that's proving to be the problem.]
sivard: (⚡ you will make it better)

[personal profile] sivard 2021-03-14 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
Of course.
guffawsungraciously: jasper frowning, facing forward but looking off to the side (sidelong glance......)

[personal profile] guffawsungraciously 2021-03-14 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
...I will admit, I am a bit surprised nobody else has attempted something quite like this...
jibunwo: (look out to the future)

[personal profile] jibunwo 2021-03-14 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
It's pragmatic to eliminate threats all at once.
silentscout: (55)

[personal profile] silentscout 2021-03-14 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
...oh.

[You know, even if he's about to die because of this, he can't be that mad at Reika. Any parent would protect their child like that, right?]
jibunwo: (to that soft gentle voice)

[personal profile] jibunwo 2021-03-14 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
You weren't wrong. So I hope that you don't regret this.
leaveittomother: (2)

[personal profile] leaveittomother 2021-03-14 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
Why would a woman who should be dead regret dying?
ltcommandroid: (under my skin)

[personal profile] ltcommandroid 2021-03-14 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
[Hm.]

I suppose that is only to be expected.
cethflayn: (gracious no...)

[personal profile] cethflayn 2021-03-14 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
...

[soft sniffle]
silentscout: (31)

[personal profile] silentscout 2021-03-14 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
[Well. There it is.

Lalli can't seem to find a voice to say anything though.
