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.

[ ...in that case...

sorry, mordecai. ]


It was a picture of him and a soccer team. And as for "messing", I mean like... [ ugh ] you know. The ways cats do, before they kill whatever they've been toying with.

The one I found was of Marty and some old guy.

... Does anybody know if they got photos out of the machine? [ Because both of those sound like they could be "do X or the guy in the photo gets it" type of a deal, uh. ]

... I hope not, but if that is how it went down, then damn, yet another sick fuck murdering people. What a god damn surprise.

Mordecai got his from there. He told me about it - the children in the photo were some he'd brought back to life.
