antitrust: (Static)

Take Responsibility.

And when the door at the bottom of those stairs unlocks and it swings open gently of its own accord, allowing everyone back down into the courtroom, there are decidedly fewer of them than there were just a few days ago.

The change in the podium circle is massive this time; Dio, Logan, Marty, Yuuri, Hibiki and Mordecai have all joined the ranks of the deceased, their podiums adorned with black cloth and greyscale photographs. Furthermore, the mass of shadows in the pit at the center seems agitated again, shifting and breaching upward toward the glass if one looks at it long enough.

It's been something of a bad week, to put it gently.

Not that it's evident from the Conductor's behavior; as usual, the proceedings are being watched from behind that panel of translucent glass behind podium 30, and he'll speak as soon as everyone has found their place in the circle. His words are a bit more rapid than usual; he seems interested in this one.

"Temporal, Lucent, Vivacious and Universal...all four of them have been taken from you. Does whomever is responsible for this really deserve your compassion? There can be no hesitation; you should offer no mercy.

It's you against the guilty. Take control of your fate, and hold them responsible.
"

Thirteen Participants remain. You've lost five people this week, and eight since the last investigation; we'll see how many more you lose today.

[ Huh... combined with what Jean's saying, he has to wonder about one thing: ]

Have you used it? Does it change how you write completely, or do you just go along fine for a few sentences and then fucking existential crisis all over the place?

When I tried to write for it, I got a couple of sentences in before the pen started going haywire.

Preeeetty useless for writing anything.

So whoever wrote it definitely chose to write it like that.

... What were they regretting so much, though? I mean, most people would probably be like "you poor fucking suckers" at all the bullshit we had to go through. You'd have to be a really specific sort to blame us for voting because we didn't wanna die.

Some of us are blaming ourselves for that. Some of us blame ourselves for a lot of things.
