WEEK ONE: EXECUTION

[hellscapes]

Hello, deadlings.

Ha. Ha ha.

Yesterday was a wild chain of events, wasn't it? Nine hours is a long time to work, but you solved the case and voted for the correct culprit. Lucky you. But the weekend "fun" isn't over just yet.

On Sunday morning, you'll soon hear a sound coming from the dock. There's a large ferry waiting for you, and even if you resist you'll eventually find yourself compelled to climb aboard and set off on a short voyage. The islands around you look fairly blurry, but you don't go very far before you stop at a slab of land with two large buildings stationed. You won't be able to look at the one on the right now, the one you've come to know as the trial bar. Instead, your feet navigate you to the building on the left as the door creaks open. On your way in, you notice some posters hung beside the door, advertising today's event.

Inside is a bar. It's pretty swanky in comparison to the others you've seen, tables and chairs arranged comfortably for everyone to have a seat and spread out however they'd like. The bar is fully stocked with all kinds of alcohol along with an arrangement of bar food for anyone who's feeling a bit peckish. At the head of the room, there appears to be a stage washed in red lights with a wide area for performances.

At a table in the corner all six demons are gathered around.

-Bloody Mary and Midori are seated together, staring intensely at the stage.
-Blue Hawaiian and Malibu Sunset are draped over each other, phones in hand and slightly covered by Cosmopolitan.
-Rosé is seated nearby, looking impatient.

As you find your seats and get yourself something to drink, darkness begins to fill the bar and a banner unfurls over the stage.

TODAY'S PERFORMER:

No matter where you look, you will find that Four is not amongst you. But there isn't time to look further before the lights dim and the curtains draw.

[well, she's still now - she has her hands pressed up against the barrier. she's muttering something under her breath but it might be hard to hear unless he's listening hard.]

[refate]

[ he catches it, after a few moments of not-quite listening, realizing that there's a shape to the sound. and then he's quiet, fist firm against the barrier as he practically radiates out of his skin. a virus that consumes.

and, then, he reaches his right hand up to grab her bicep, having to force the grip to come, voice low. ]

[cavaliered]

[she listens - she listens, and she breathes.

the lights hurt. the flashing lights and the bells make her head ache.]

He can't fucking help himself. [she says finally, but she doesn't pull away.]

[refate]

[ the discordant note goes straight to the pit of his stomach with something akin to dread.the bell and four's mania don't help. he's still holding onto gideon for the moment as he turns his head, just slightly, against the flashes of light, but not looking away. ]

No. He can't. To do otherwise would be against his nature, no matter who was up there.

[cavaliered]

[ok well sisi is fucking with us but gideon doesn't know that so the splat happens and gideon just

bellows. not painfully, not in fear or upset. not that, she's not afraid.

no, no, it's anger.]

[refate]

[ he doesn't startle, at least, as he holds his breath. instead, his jaw tightens, teeth grinding, as he hisses: ] Only in the darkness can you see the stars.

[ where are you where are you where are you - ]
