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 yet one of them will.

So don't make it two. Please.

I'm sorry, child, but I do not make promises.

[The bow and arrow stay in hand]

... I'll stop you if I have to.

[ even if Emet-Selch says she shouldn't. ]

If we start fighting here as well, then we won't be able to help anyone.

I'm not the one drawing my weapon.

He's not fired it yet.

I know that. That's why I said "if I have to."

[ she lowers her head. ]

We've had enough bloodshed. We don't need to go making more when we don't need to.

... There's already more. [ oh kano. ] Just...

[ she folds her arms around her waist again. ]

We can't get through the barrier. Neither can his arrows. [ this is terrible? this is terrible. ]

Knock it off. Kano's about to be a real-ass murderer and you're still putting up for him?

He's fighting for his life! Wouldn't you? [ Fiora shakes her head. ] All of this is wrong - neither of them should die in the first place, but killing both of them would be even worse!

In case you forgot, we're in the middle of a murder hellscape - we don't have time for what's the most right.

If he's willing to kill someone here, he'll kill someone again, and I'm not letting it be me.

Sorry, but I can't agree with that.

You don't have to agree with me. Doesn't change that I'm right.

You may try.

(PROBABLY... dealing with Izumo tbh so ur on ur own Horse Sensei but--)

It's not like he can do anything until the barrier is down. (SO EVERYONE CHILL,) So save it 'til then.

(Like, fight later??? They dont need this now. )

I'm not fighting!

[ bro i am just standing here.jpg ]

But someone has to stand against this kind of thing.

(Keep standing there!!! Try counting to 100 or something everyone needs to maybe not)

Take it from someone who's seen what he can do. He's perfectly capable of shooting a bow without killing someone.

(It took me like 5 years to dig through my notifs to make sure I wasn't making up an old thread 4 this SIGHS)

He already said he was prepared to kill.

Prepared, not definitely going to.

(no subject)

Yes.

... If I think it necessary.

[he's honestly not looking away from the fight but, in the spirit of pragmatism:]

At present, we have limited ability to heal injuries.

It would be appreciated if we did not cause more amongst each other, regardless of personal arguments.

Please consider what we must accomplish past today.

[ Fiora shakes her head. ]

I'm not hurting anyone. I'm protecting them, Won.

[ if he shoots an arrow into Kano, they'll need to take care of that injury, too. ]

They are the same action, Fiora, given different lenses.

[and for this he doesn't seem particularly biased]

Define it as you wish - but this moment too is something that can be perceived differently by different people.

[he just doesn't want a riot to start and for everyone to start bleeding it'd be a fucking mess AND a pain in the ass]

[ she sighs, eyes downcast, bronze fists clenched. ] I'm not about to start a fight, but I'm not about let someone get killed in front of me if I can help it, either.

[ he's not wrong, but her conviction is steadfast on this matter. ]
