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.

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??

[scythegun]

That's just it, it only looks like a briefcase.

[oh no suga i'm so sorry but also bear with me while i try to make this make sense!!]

You can see it there - it looks convincing, ja? But if look closely, you can see that all the parts are folded up.

[It definitely is a convincing fake, but up close you can definitely see that the parts have been folded up and in. There are places where it isn't an exact perfect match to a briefcase, where you can see seams and oddly-colored pieces that are clearly part of the bladed weapons.]

It's quite the clever design!

[gemuinemanagement]

Oh, I see
It must be hard to make it fold into so many different things though

[scythegun]

Exceptionally hard! I worked with a smith for quite some time testing things out until he was able to get to this point! He certainly was quite patient, but then again, I made him a very wealthy man!

[He spent so much gald on this goddamn weapon.]

[gemuinemanagement]

Why do you actually need so many different weapons
I can understand having one melee and one ranged weapon
But the rest seems excessive?

[Suga does not understand the Extra.]

[scythegun]

Oh, that's easy!

[oh god no]

I chose all of my weapons specifically for my style of combat - I like to control the battlefield and keep up the pressure; it forces my opponent into reacting rather than acting.

The sword is a rather typical weapon, useful at short ranges and one I'm proficient with, but ultimately it's just there in case I need to get close. I would consider the scythe and rifle my "main" weapons for melee and ranged. The scythe can be a bit difficult to use when you're too close though, ja? So the sword covers the scythe's weaknesses.

The rifle is built for power - those shots hurt! But it is slower to fire and can't fire continuously, so the crossbow can handle faster shots for when I need a ranged weapon for that.

The shield is rather self-explanatory, and the briefcase is because I thought it'd be funny.

[HE DID SO WELL UNTIL THAT LAST PART]

[gemuinemanagement]

The briefcase seemed like the most practical part
Sometimes you need to not be visibly carrying a weapon

But that makes sense

[scythegun]

Ja, ja, that is why I requested it. But there's something truly wonderful about transforming it and watching everyone's eyes go wide!

[so ultimately it's because he's Extra.]

[gemuinemanagement]

It is very impressive
I wonder if I could do something like that out of glowstone...

[scythegun]

Do you think you could? I can let you get a closer look at it, if you'd like.

[All the forms of it and as it's transforming, he means.]

[gemuinemanagement]

Glowstone doesn't fold easily
But maybe if I made the hinges out of something else

I'd really appreciate it
Thank you

[scythegun]

Ja, that would work! Here, let me show you how mine works.

[He'll come join Suga near the bed to pick up the weapon; it's very heavy so he'll hold onto it so it doesn't break poor Suga's arms, but he'll show off the briefcase form first! Take a look at this disaster and how it works. I don't know how it works so just pretend there's a description of it here.]

[gemuinemanagement]

[A beautiful and detailed description, thank you Redd.]

I think I get it
I'll practice with some of the gems here later

[scythegun]

[ur welcome]

I'd like to see what you end up making! I'll be sure to keep an eye out~
