WEEK ONE: REMOVAL

[retellers]

WEEK ONE: REMOVAL (38 remain) Time to wake up, participants of the Realm. At 8am, everyone will receive a message on their PHS. Docking bay in space. 9AM. Even if the participants ignore the message (or are sleeping in, shame on them), as 9am approaches they will fall victim to a compulsion to head to the specified location. Three Leaders, Tiger, Swan, and Goat, are already present, Kano with them. Tiger speaks. "Let's... just get this over with." Once they finish speaking, an alert goes off from a PHS in the crowd—specifically, Jeanne's. Her PHS displays a simple message. You have been selected to remove Shuuya Kano. Regardless of her will, she will feel compelled to walk towards the scene. No other participant will be able to interfere; should they try, a barrier blocks their way, though it won't harm them.

[And then opening his eyes again when everyone starts shouting?]

W. . .

[axecessory]

[ Oh. No, no.

She quickly shades his eyes with her hand, even as she gasps. ]

Jeanne—

[ But she bites it back as quickly as possible, her voice level. ] You don't have to see this, okay?

[ No matter what happens, he doesn't have to watch. ]

[exercisms]

[He doesn't want to look, but he does want to know what's happening. He tries to shake her away, shaking his head.]

No! Even more people - now even more people are. . .

[axecessory]

[ She really doesn't want to fight him, but she will bring him into a hug as that second(!?) scalpel comes out. ]

Let her handle this.

[ No matter what the rest of them do or threaten, they're just bystanders. ]

[exercisms]

[He won't fight that hard. Okay, okay. Hug.]

She's brave and strong. But no matter what she does, he won't be able to be hurt, either.

[axecessory]

[ It's hug hours now. Ignore the possible double homicide going on. ]

...What do you mean?

[ Hasn't he already hurt Jeanne? ]

[exercisms]

He won't be able to feel it. So she's going to be in danger. A person is much stronger when they can't feel pain.

[siblingless]

[... Overhearing this and looking his way, her eyes widening.]

Kageyama-san...?

[exercisms]

[lol!]

[siblingless]

[oh my GOD

MOB!!!]

[axecessory]

[ Oh, well, he promptly demonstrates that with a very gross shoulder dislocation. Hilda only flinches a little, though. ]

Yeah. They're stronger when they're cornered, too. [ She won't disagree, worrying her lip for a second but otherwise not letting go. ]

[exercisms]

[Nodding.]

In the end, I don't want him to die, either. I don't want any of these terrible things to happen.

[axecessory]

[ Sweet child what have you done. She still sounds calm. ]

Mob... These things happen. [ terrible things happen. ] Sometimes we just have to try and not make things worse.

[ LIKE BY USING ITEMS IN EXECUTIONS ]

[robopriest]

Kano can't feel pain?

[GOOD FREAKING LORD THIS IS JUST. THIS IS SO MUCH]

[exercisms]

[Shaking his head.]

He won't be able to feel any of it.

[uhhhmagic]

Mob.

Did you give Kano an item that lets him not feel pain?

[exercisms]

[Shaking his head.]

I didn't give it to him. It's right here.

[Holding out the diamond in his pocket!]

[uhhhmagic]

[just

pinching the bridge of his nose

people are fighting in the background.]

Hoo boy.

1/3, bc i need separate icons for this

[frostythehitman]

[ HERE COMES VEZDA, IN CONTROL, except not, because he has just overheard this whole exchange, and he looks absolutely livid. In fact, he almost looks like he's about to attack Mob! ]

2/3

[frostythehitman]

[ But then he steps back, squares his shoulders, and forces himself to take a deep breath. He's staring between the diamond and Mob. ]

3/3

[frostythehitman]

No. I can't deal with you right now.

[ And he stalks off angrily. ]

[antaressnipe]

[... Even Chiron doesn't know what to say in this moment]

[robopriest]

[JUST.]

[CLOSING HIS EYE]

[HANSA IS VERY DONE]

[horologia]

[ she stiffens when she hears this, glancing over sharply.

she doesn't know any of them. it's not her place to say anything. but still... ]

... no, they're not. They're not at all. It's not the strength you want to have, be...because if you can't feel pain then you won't know when to stop.

[exercisms]

[It's fine? He finds this a little easier to deal with then people having emotions in his direction.]

Ah. . . I'm sure that's true. I was thinking of the times I've seen a spirit possess a human body. Because they don't feel pain, they're able to push their limits.
