SECOND EXECUTION

[lesmodsalouette]

Execution

Like last week, you hear the gong, gong of the bells. Unlike last week, you don't get immediately tugged into the promenade of reflexion. There'll be a pull, an itch, but you can ignore it if you so desire. Mercy, perhaps, for all that happened yesterday.

If you do walk into the promenande, the scene is much the same as last week. The mirrors reflect a grassy field, though this time, one lone structure inhabits the field. A worn, cracked but still standing half oval amphitheater with a simple stone stage. Only one figure is reflected in the mirrors, the falsely accused alone with his wide brimmed hat standing directly in stage center.

(( OOC: Welcome to your Execution! The comment section is split into two parts. The actual execution subheader is solely for the executioner and culprit, while the audience subheader is for all your reaction needs as that thread unfolds! ))

I know their will is strong, but...

[ This feels cruel, too cruel to watch.

But any words he had on his tongue die in the back of his throat when Ish appears and quickly ends the looping. ]

...

[ What can he even say to this? ]

[antemeridian]

[ ... correction: ]

Or until our Witch deems it suitable to intervene, it seems.

[ ... but why? what was that? ]

[allrounder]

[ He'll ponder over those words later, because all he can do when Siffrin attempts a stab is to smile— ]

Not succumbing without a fight, I see.

[divineth]

As befiteth them.

[That's the way to do it, Siffrin.]

[allrounder]

[ and then ish fucking DIES ]

By the Twelve—

[safetycheck]

They...they did i-

[ AND THEN THE GROUND?? ]

Huh?!

[distain]

[Is he close enough to grab her if she unwisely jumps to her feet right now?]

[divineth]

[I love how this notif is how I found out.

Ish goes down, and everything starts shaking...]

Everyone, remain together--!!

[arbalestrier]

[He clicks his tongue because damn, this sure turned into a clusterfuck quick. There probably isn't time to evacuate everyone so uh, he's just going to run over and tackle the closest person who might still be standing and/or requires cover.

Sorry to whoever this ends up being.]

[antemeridian]

Of course not.

[ When they've persisted this long, then it's the only possible conclusion. But still, she's just watching, assessing, solemn.

A single tick of the clocks (your perception of time has always been different, ever since then) to close the distance. The flash of a dagger, darkless, bright. What happens next? ]

[allrounder]

[ And then Ish dies and all he can do is look over at Homura to quickly gauge her reaction once his own shock has worn off and the grounds begin to shake. ]

[antemeridian]

[ He's going to catch a flash of something thoughtful, assessing, contemplative, before it's subsumed by the emotion that is mostly summed up by 'hmm, the grounds shaking while they're on the second floor in a room full of heavy and also breakable things is maybe mildly concerning.' ]

To live as they do requires a level of stubbornness that borders on madness.

It is only f̸̾ͅī̸̯̲t̵̛̥t̸͚́͝ḭ̸̠͊n̴̮͋g̵̫̗̑̈́.

[allrounder]

[ They're right. It takes a level of perseverance that toes the line of madness to do what they do. ]

[baebladie]

Of course...of course not.

[ And then he bursts into laughter when everything begins to fall apart. ]

[vivens]

[ blade....... ]

[baebladie]

[ Blade can't hear you he is gone in his glee ]

[allrounder]

[ yeah you know what blade go ahead and laugh what the hell sure ]

[baebladie]

[ and now his mood is ruined old man laughing turned suddenly dark and frowning.gif thanks to Ish being alive ]

[ocenon]

[ yeah sure peggle can make phone calls, who gives a fuck. ]

[baebladie]

[ RIGHT?? ...and then Ish comes back. Fuck this noise ]

[arbalestrier]

[bitch keep your head down or he'll tackle you]

[baebladie]

[ Honestly please do, Sousuke it'd be funny- ]

[remainsilent]

[ Looks like he celebrated a bit early... ]

[baebladie]

[ HE TOLD HIMSELF HE WASN'T GOING TO BE OPTIMISTIC...but it looked so real...he was fooled...boo boo the fool. Probably again, tbh ]
