WEEK TWO: EXECUTION

[hellscapes]

Hello, deadlings.

You really could have voted for anyone, but very noble of you to pick the culprit. Lucky you, 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:
LAVI
10AM
Enjoy the show

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

[ The fire is distinguished, the shadow that formed itself into Dohwa stabs it's pincer into Lavi's torso without any hesitation. It's driven into him, and he can hear and smell flesh being torn through until she's successfully pierced through to the other side.

Her face is impassive, if a bit surprised, as the shadow itself slowly slinks back for Lavi to drop down onto the stage.

Junhyeong only gives himself a moment to breathe before he's moving; the realization hitting him like a truck. The second that solid sound of Lavi's body dropping reaches him he knows it's over -- another person, who he tried so hard to keep at a distance, has died. Someone that he's made the terrible mistake of giving an inch of who and what he is before it all slips past his fingers.

Junhyeong, honey.

It's his mother's voice again.

He stands above Lavi, taking note of his body, and the fact that it looks so peaceful. Seating both knees on either side of the fallen man's waist before he stares, hands moving to grab him by the throat; instinctive. ]

You bastard... You --

I wish I never spoke a word to you.

[ And with that, before Lavi can die in peace, he leans forward and sinks teeth and fangs into his jugular. Digging into flesh until there's a splash of blood that coats his tongue, running down his own throat as he puuuuuuuuuulls muscle and flesh clean off.

Why did you ever think that you'd be happy? ]

[the way ryza wrote "before lavi can die in peace" so lavi's still alive,

His body jerks at the bite, but he doesn't have the strength to do anything else, as Junhyeong's teeth digs into him. He can't think of anything, his mind's a blank. He can only think of the end looming before him, and think about how much better this death is compared to his last.

at least he's dying fast, at least junhyeong isn't dead.

...at least he got to...

....]

[ as the final blow is delivered, everything seems to fall silent. the shadows wait, poised and looming on stage, and soon all around is the sound of applause. despite the fact that no one is visibly clapping, the sound echoes off the walls of the bar as the shadows take a bow.

the applause tapers off and the shadows stand upright, fluid movements enhanced under the lights. lavi's shadow scoops up his body, and without another word steps back into the darkness to take him away.

junhyeong's shadow, meanwhile, begins to shrink little by little, returning to its original size and settling behind him once more. it looks like it's back to normal…but who's to say?

the lights are raised in the bar and the door swings open. the table of demons seem to be watching before they all begin to move once more. all six of them seem to gather themselves, taking their leave without another word. this is your time now.

as last week, the last ferry of the day leaves at 5pm. everyone is free to linger around the island for the rest of the afternoon if they'd like. there's alcohol and food available all day, and while the trial bar isn't open the island has space for anyone who wants to find a quiet place to relax a little. you've all lived to see another day…enjoy it, for now. ]
