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. |

[It sounds like Cabanela believes him.]
You'd think he'd address his wife by name. He seemed like a romantic sort of guy.

[ And should Cabanela come over, Bakugou will mutter in a low voice: ] Pretty sure the letter's a fake.

He'll response back in a low voice.]
That would make sense, wouldn't it? It would be easy to frame someone who isn't around to defend himself.

... I just wanna see if how he takes it if he thinks are going his way.
[ And then at his normal voice: ]
Just keep the petitions and shit, I don't wanna hang onto them anyway.
no subject
[He'll just take the petitions back.]
I'll hold onto them until we're through here.

So it is faked. That means it was written but someone that doesn't know her name... [ Hmm... ]

[Susan doesn't buy that Mordecai could have murdered anyone with a hammer, but she doesn't seem to think they're lying about the writing.]
