EXECUTION V

Execution V

The end of this weekend's trial brought many questions and little answers, but like clockwork the time for execution comes like normal. The tune this Sunday has a more cheerful energy than usual, much like the piece that heralded the start of investigation.

It might not do much to change the mood though, given the two men standing in the sealed off space, in the middle of all the mirrors. Raven is there of course, and the man with him is someone else who else who was a fixture of yesterday's trial, Yeager.

[Honestly fair and relatable.]

I kind of figured you wouldn't
That's what you have friends to remind you for

[scythegun]

I suppose I don't exactly handle losing people I care about very well...

[...it sounds like this is only just now occurring to him, good job yeager, you're doing great.]

[gemuinemanagement]

Is anybody here handling it 'well'

[scythegun]

[con...siders.......]

You're right. Does everyone handle it this poorly?

[occasionally yeager is just even more aggressively weird than usual...... it's fine, don't worry about it.]

[gemuinemanagement]

Most people
It's pretty high on the list of 'worst things that can happen' for a lot of people

[scythegun]

Ja, that's certainly understandable...

[He really has had his feelings solidly shut off for awhile, huh.]

Anyway, thank you for trying to look out for me. I really do appreciate it.

[gemuinemanagement]

Any time
You've been a big help to me
So the least I can do is repay the favor

[Sometimes people teach you how to tell stories and you make sure they get all their meals, it's cool.]

[scythegun]

[Murdergame life, apparently......]

I'm pleased I've been able to help somewhat, at least.

[gemuinemanagement]

You did
I still need to come up with a story to tell you

[But it has to be a good one!!]

[scythegun]

I'm sure you'll come up with a fantastic one. I certainly don't mind waiting.

[you can do it, suga!!]

[gemuinemanagement]

[Thinking... thinking... Screwing his face up in concentration thinking...]

Do you want to hear a story about Shii-chan

[scythegun]

Shii-chan is your friend, ja?

[The one who moved away, right?]

I'd like to, yes.

[He glances back at the mirror once more before finally getting up off the floor to take the chair. He's careful to place himself so he won't get distracted by the duo in the mirror.]

[gemuinemanagement]

[Suga nods with a smile. Yes, she's The friend.]

When we were kids
Shii-chan always wanted to do things like playfighting and sports
And I always wanted to pick flowers and things like that
I was kind of a wimpy kid

[Not much has changed there, honestly.]

But one day when I was about 6 I decided I was going to impress her
And climb a tree all by myself

Well
I did climb the tree
But then I couldn't get back down again

So I had to cry and cry until Shii-chan heard me and showed up
And she told me to jump into her arms and she'd catch me like a superhero

Fun fact: a 6-year-old girl probably should not be catching people jumping out of trees

[scythegun]

[Oh no, what a start to a story...!!]

My, she certainly sounds fearless! Did you jump?

[gemuinemanagement]

I jumped, because it didn't occur to me that Shii-chan could be wrong about something
Shii-chan did catch me
But then we both hit the ground anyway

We both got the scolding of our lives from her parents afterwards
But for about a week we were both too sore to do any playfighting
And we had to do the games I liked instead

[scythegun]

Oh dear, I'm sure that was quite the difficult lesson for her!

[For both of them, really...]

Did she end up enjoying your games?

[gemuinemanagement]

She did
But then as soon as we were healed up she wanted to play fight again
I still don't know why anybody likes that

[He guesses it's sparring for kids??]

[scythegun]

Well, some people do enjoy fighting, and that can be true even for kids!

[It's definitely sparring for kids.]

[gemuinemanagement]

Is that what you liked to do when you were a kid

[scythegun]

Ja, absolutely. I was told I was quite a menace!

[gemuinemanagement]

I can imagine
Kid Yeager with a stick as big as he is

[Now if only it could change shape into a different stick it'd be perfect.]

[scythegun]

I wasn't nearly strong enough for that back then! But I certainly did enjoy using sticks as swords, so that's accurate!

[gemuinemanagement]

If you had a stick that transformed into different sticks that would be perfect

[scythegun]

Oh, I would have adored that as a child.

[gemuinemanagement]

I'm still trying to figure out how your transform weapon even works
It doesn't seem like all of that should fit in that briefcase??
