W0: EXECUTION

In the morning at 12:30pm sharp, you hear the intercom speakers blare loudly across the entire airport, perfectly audible no matter where you are.

All passengers, please report to the Flight Deck effective immediately. All passengers, please report to the Flight Deck effective immediately...

Hopefully that’s not quite as long a trek as Saturday for you. All the same, you are propelled by that same sensation to come to the Flight Deck. Your feet carry you past that glass doors onto the outdoor terrace, where the benches and quaint planters await. Why, it’d look almost serene if not for the fact that one of you appears to be missing. There’s really only one place they could be, isn’t there? Your gaze might eventually settle over the runway you can see out below—the view is great from up here.

While you're not forcibly rooted to your seats, there's no way out. The glass doors close behind the last person and refuse to budge, and the viewing glass is just as unbreakable. As for any open areas, the invisible forcefield is working so very hard on this Sunday.

Oh, and because I’m sure this is the most pressing question on your mind: yes, Allstars Coffee is still serving hot beverages and small baked eats, even during execution. That’s what you need during stressful situations, right? More commemoration ASS caffeine? Yes, we thought so. You’re welcome.

In just a few minutes, the combatants approach, as helpful screens light up to further help you understand today's proceedings.

[ well, this starts to get gory, and fast - the noise his him near instinctively move a little in front of maya like a shield, as justice comes flying out with that feral noise. ]

Bloody hell.

[obdure]

This isn't normal, right?

[ ARE CHAINSAWS NORMALLY INVOLVED? ]

[teenrebellion]

Think the defibrillator can heal that...?

[ yikes!!

also yikes: whatever the fuck anders is doing now?? he scowls and looks away. this is going to get even messier, isn't it. ]

This is why I hated coming to these things.

[disingenuous]

That would be appreciated.

[ people sure are getting chainsawed and losing hands.

and justice makes an appearance again. roxana watches all this calmly, unfortunately. ]

[ballies]

[ yeah like real i'm not a coward ]

[teenrebellion]

[ same!! what the fuck!!! ]

Where the hell did that even come from? [ what the fuck!!!

and then anders starts to go and talks about judgment and kazuki just. goes still, scowling and turning his eyes away. ]

[rosebleed]

I don't know!

[Because she doesn't want to just watch either. She doesn't want to do nothing, and knows this is ten times worse for him and there is nothing she can do or say to make it better.

She draws a shaky breath. Justice has taken over, comes in with lightning at the ready. Still her eyes dart to the discarded hand and she feels an intense despair. Anger. She bites the inside of her lip and sets her jaw.]

We have to...be ready. For when it's over. It's not fair, and I hate it, but we can't do anything yet and you'll only hurt yourself, keeping at the glass like this.

I'm sorry, Kaworu.

[drymonster]

[ well, ]

[bxkautx]

[ she's just watching anders so intently that she doesn't say anything, actually. ]

[ballies]

[ uuggggghhhh ]

Bit late for that, Justice.

[ she just... sighs. and starts chewing nervously on her lip. ] That energy-- that might cauterise the wound little. Until Justice is done.

[riderculous]

[ yall are just so cute ]

[selfimmolation]

Could be. Either way--Justice wouldn't let him die.

[ them? how does this relationship work. ]

[feytality]

[ stop being so british ]

[ she doesn't make any real move to get out from behind him, but puts a hand on his back. trying to be gentle and not startle him further. ]

[halians]

[ there goes justice like a feral animal. he's taking after frumpkin....

strohl watches all of this just kind of brimming with anxiety and fury and forty thousand other emotions at once, held still only by tension. insane magic (?) fights are normal, carnage is normal, but the chainsaw's a new one. ]

Justice. [ half-breathless. ] Come on - stay on him, that lightning can't be good for the machine -

[ kandeon his ass ]

[siffrin]

[ When there's a moment of relief like oh, that's good -

but there's suddenly chainsaws and limbs and, what is blinding going on??? Peeking at other people like hey is this all new, or familiar or... what's the judgement here - ]

[bxkautx]

Depends. I don't know all the variations of how this can go.

[ but they can be... ]

[bxkautx]

No idea. Healing and regrowing are different, right?

[ maybe? meanwhile alex just like. haha he killed me with that magic once. anyway, ]

... It's a little stressful.

[sixam]

[ WHY WOULD HE KNOW, THIS IS NEW. ]

Jesus christ.

[ballies]

[ cheat code! let your alter-ego do the fighting for you. ]

...

[ that doesn't actually make her feel totally ok? actually? "at what cost"?? ]

If he could do that quickly, that would be great.

[drymonster]

[ well if they look over at todomatsu he looks more grossed out and annoyed than shocked soooo take that as you will ]

[honourous]

[ have the sickest earring you want, brother, you will look so cool.

also one of the three of us needs to keep their fucking cool, and she guesses it's her! even if she's bristled and on edge, moving forward with him, stopping in tandem with a gritting of her teeth. ] This damned place..!

[ but justice is here, it seems. ]

[sixam]

... last night, he said something about colors making things from his imagination. Is that what this is? [ jesus, why is your imagination so mad!!!!

but yeah, he knows. ]

This is different. Justice is going to at least get Anders out of there.

[siffrin]

[ you know, this actually says a lot thank you except sorry that happened and is happening again (?) ]

[sixam]

[ ...

hm. yes, he can imagine what she might be thinking, so he's just loosely looping an arm around her from where he's leaning and watching this as well. welcome back, justice x2 ]

[honourous]

[ WHY IS THERE A CHAINSAW AGAIN. WHY. LEAVE IT IN SCAWWY!!!

it's fine, she moves forward with her, tandem shock - but she has to be the one out of the three of them in this metaphor sandwich to keep her shit together, today, so she pulls on vi's hand to keep her from hurting herself on the barrier. ]
