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.

[ Crushes (empty) ASS coffee cup anxiously. ]

[feytality]

[ offers handsie to hold ]

[damp]

[ misunderstands and confusedly hands her the crushed cup? ]

[feytality]

[ hands it back to him ]

Your hand, dummy.

[damp]

[ OH takes her hand ]

Oh. Sorry.

[feytality]

[ give it to haru ]

It's fine. You guys had these too, right?

[damp]

[ With horror, ] Yeah.

[ Checking on her... the violence, Maya... ]

[feytality]

[ if she's checking on him and he's checking on her, who's flying the plane? ]

[ she does startle at first but otherwise keeps watching with a neutral look ]

Geez... this is a lot.

[damp]

[ we've been pilotless since the game started maya

Rin doesn't know who Justice is so he has no idea what's happening to Anders right now. Referring to himself in third person? Cringe. ]

Yeah.

[ Just lowers his gaze. ]

[feytality]

What's going on...? Is that someone else?

[ maya also doesn't know who justice is she just thinks he's possessed or something ]

[ squeezes his hand ]

[damp]

I don't know.

[ grits his teeth as boothill's arm goes up in flames ]

I wish it would just be- quick.

[feytality]

[ the longer i tag this the more in the way of the yaoi she is ]

Me, too. It never is, though, is it?

[ leans against him a little ]

[damp]

[ yes of course... our nonexistent yaoi

C'mon in and cuddle. ]

I guess... I stopped watching. We weren't forced to like we are here.

[ Closing his eyes now. ]

[squirt]

[ reaches for his hand. if you give him that coffee cup this will be a double execution. ]

[damp]

[ OKAY LET'S ALL CALM DOWN

Takes Haru's hand. Brows furrowing when he sees Anders.

Going tense... ]

[squirt]

[ squeezes... he's going to look away when the chainsaw comes out and lands a hit. team on team violence. ]

[damp]

[ Haru, your team...

Pulls Haru's head toward his shoulder. He can hide there like his player hides during scary movies. ]

[squirt]

[ his team is not being very woke today. kills spoon also?

but—oh. okay. he can still see the flashes of light in the blurry peripheral with justice's appearance, and they all hear the chainsaw revs, but this is still better. he's okay with hiding and giving rin's hand a squeeze. ]

[damp]

[ Also disassociates for a moment, having a weird, insane moment where he considers that everything they're seeing is just a movie and none of this is real. He's never seen any of the Terminator movies. Maybe it's just like that?

But there's no background music, just the horrific sounds coming from the fight, and the angry voices around them... aaaa tucks his face against Haru. ]

[squirt]

[ this is why he should watch more than romcoms. just kidding, no amount of terminator would prepare you for this. he is also fully removed from existing in this moment until rin jostles him a little, to which he realizes that the execution has winded down to something quieter. just static and color.

he puts a hand on rin's back tentatively, deciding whether to watch the last part or not. ]

[damp]

[ don't watch it dumbass and shut up he watches more than romcoms

They can still hear. The sound of the impact and Boothill's last remarks to Anders, the distortion and pain in his voice. It sucks real bad. ]

[squirt]

[ okay, he won't watch. he doesn't really need convincing to miss the final moment, though he still hears it. it's too late to do anything. and isn't that typical?

he's going to try not to listen, holding rin for the end of this instead. ]
