day three - aftermath
![]() As the voting period comes to an end, a bell goes off from the ticket machine, and the metal bars blocking the tunnel at the end of the Hall of Mirrors lifts. A voice speaks over the loudspeaker: "Attention, guests! Please make your way onto the ride! For your safety, keep your hands and arms inside and do not attempt to leave your seat!" Through the tunnel, single cars on a track stop and wait for each remaining player to step on. Don't dawdle, or your bracelet will begin to beep a warning. Once in a car, the safety bar locks you tightly inside, unable to move. The car trundles along a dark, twisting track, nearly veering into cartoonish obstacles, but veering away at the last moment. Music and cackling laughter echoes loudly through the ride as you drive faster and faster. Suddenly, your car veers off to the left, through a courtroom, where a towering cartoon judge threatens to bang a gavel. Your car jerks and evades, but somewhere, before one car can pass, the gavel comes down and the car spins off to the side, through a dark doorway. Each car comes to the end of the ride, but doesn't stop, and instead jerks into motion and, even faster, veers through the ride a second time. This time, your car does not enter the courtroom, but the doors to your left nonetheless open, showing instead of a courtroom a red room burning with cartoon flames. Above the flames hangs a corpse in a noose. The body of Edea Lee hangs from a red rope noose, as a cackling voices pronounces: Guilty! The ride turns away once more, and comes to a stop. A list of votes has been posted on the wall. You now have the rest of the evening to explore the park, before night comes again. One more thing: because of the successful execution of a VIP today, you now have a chance to vote for a MVP. MVP vote character statuses private conversations graveyard This is a general post-vote mingle encompassing the time from the end of the trial (about 5 PM until the fireworks at 11 PM). You are encouraged and welcome to backtag discussions in this post until the next day post, or to have afternoon private conversations. |

Probably been hit the hardest by the deaths who's still alive since this shitty game's started, yeah. I've heard her mention how she and Kuzuryuu were childhood friends. Mabel might have it hard with losing Dipper, but a child experiencing direct trauma for the first time...
It shouldn't happen. It shouldn't, and the very comparison is sickening because you don't quantify something like grief.
I can't help but look at it anyway, and think to myself, 'this girl is struggling more than Mabel'. Age and experience do factor into things, and if what I've been hearing from Mahiru and Inuki is true, then...
It's probably why I don't really hear her mumbling. Can't really focus even if I tried. I did wander out here not just to visit the graves I've been digging, but because I was looking for her in particular. It's been pretty clear since yesterday that she's going to have a routine, so finding her was easy.
...
I should say something. It'd be even more callous, to expect someone suffering an indescribably deep and personal wound to break the ice. ]
...Peko, right?
no subject
[Sigma's voice is more unfamiliar than some, catching Peko's attention more than his approach. After all, it wasn't like it was just Kuzuryuu here; there were others here as well, who had people to mourn for them, so she hadn't expected him to address her at all.
She's in better shape than she was last night, though she looks absolutely exhausted. Perhaps moreso than she did even during the trial itself in the Hall of Mirrors. Normally vivid red eyes look a touch more on the dull side, and she doesn't get up to greet him.]
Correct. It's... Klim, yes?
[Even her voice sounds tired. Has she slept at all since Kuzuryuu's murder... no...]
no subject
Just Sigma's fine. I've been thinking, and I wanted to talk to you about a few things.
...Is now okay? I don't mind staying here.
[ Making the conversation private occurs to me, but it's pretty late, and this area is quiet. In the end, I don't think we really need to move, especially with the state she's in. ]
no subject
[It's a bit short and clipped when she speaks, but after a moment, she does force herself to her feet, pressing one hand into the dirt to help herself up. Her gaze flicks over him for a moment, as if assessing him for any threat he might pose, before nodding.]
Here, or if there is another location you would prefer. What is it?
no subject
[ I glance at the graves, Mahiru and Fuyuhiko's in particular. They're both well taken care of... That girl's really left an impression. ]
Well, I've been thinking a lot about 'why', for a lot of things. You knew them really well, so I was wondering if you'd offer a second opinion about a few theories;
no subject
I know-- Fuyuhiko, [there's a weird catch to her voice, as if she realizes she's used present tense again, but doesn't correct it,] better than I did Koizumi. [The choice of name should make that much clear, at least.] But what would you like to know?"
