Final Trial

[ After a long while of investigation in areas that she definitely did not authorize you being in, the Mayor speaks up over the loudspeakers throughout the entire city. She's not using distortion at all, for what it's worth. ]

If you're all done rifling through my past and looting my things, there's a show that we really ought to get on the road, don't you think? Don't worry, I'm not going to come to you. You'll come to me.

[ And, one by one (along with your evidence), every single one of you is teleported into, rather than the underwater dome, a sectioned-off area of the Hall of the Founders. The walls around you are thick glass, and you can see beyond them that the Sparrows have begun restoring the statues. Massive stone renditions of the original Founders of New Rapture surround you, though some are still covered in cloth. A series of podiums have been set for you.

And within your final trial box is another box of frosted glass, ominous before you, just transparent enough to see a figure inside, sitting at a desk, her feet up as she lounges in a rolling office chair. ]


I love the dome, but there's nowhere for me to sit, you know? I was going to reveal this to all of you, it was going to be a whole big thing, but then you woke up early and ran off to do God-knows-what in a bunch of places I didn't need you in! Almost as if someone tipped you off to my plan.

[ Inside the glass case, the figure leans back in the chair further. ]

So you know what? Go ahead and talk amongst yourselves. Air my dirty laundry. Maybe I'll even join in in person. See if you can figure out what happened here, for starters.

[ Welcome to the final trial. ]

...from another universe?

Yes. It was in the audio log between the Mayor and that Wesker woman, wasn't it? Using that technology of hers, she was able to find and synchronize with a universe where she hadn't come to New Rapture.

Who's to say it wouldn't be possible to find a universe where we did?

...if other universes are real, then anything that can happen must have somewhere.

[He repeats it a little hollowly: something he said to Aiba, weeks ago, foolishly.]

Who we are, what we'd do - that doesn't have any bearing.

[...Mafuyu's gonna continue to quietly have a crisis about that regardless, don't mind her.]

[don't mind her, sparkles. ... She just slips out from behind her podium, and makes her way over to Mafuyu. She throws an arm over the girls shoulder, and tugs her in close.]

[oh.

...yeah, okay. she kind of appreciates this right now, actually.]

… It’s okay, if you’d ever want to. Record and share somethin like that. You’re talented.

But it’s just as okay if you don’t.

I know. [It sounds like a brag, but it's actually pretty matter of fact. She's been told as much and there's not really any arguing when her music is as popular as it is without any real effort on her part.] I don't... publish under my own name, though.

...I can't really fathom a me that would be in a recording studio. A Mafuyu who is that open about it.
specialyellthing: (Pretty strong and little thing)

It’s not somethin to be ashamed of. Hell, I’d say it’s somethin to be proud of.

A Mafuyu who is openly celebrated. I can’t get behind much about this place. But that? I give a full Hawkah to!
