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.

[ The moment she sees what occurs, something cracks. Horror creeps up and takes over, and she can't stop the shout from coming forth. ]

Kano!

[ She is no stranger to self-sacrifice, but she would have preferred to carry the weight of murderer.

Once the reality hits, a different weight comes crashing down, and she pushes the lever. The airlock door closes, and Jeanne stays very, very still.

Shuuya Kano is dead. ]

[retellers]

[ The airlock closes, but not before Kano's body disappears into space. Bye, Kano.

With that said, once he's dead, the barriers blocking everyone go down. After manifesting their sword, Goat uses it as a crutch to help them stand, struggling to do so (getting shocked repeatedly does that to a person).]

... I will retrieve his body.

[ Tearing a portal open in the air, they step through and vanish. After a few moments, since there's nothing left for them to do, Swan takes a hold of Tiger and the two of them teleport away.

You're all free to leave now! Hurray!

Later in the day, everyone will receive an alert for the NOVA CHECK app. Looks like weekly rankings are up! Furthermore, the Leaders will be responding to requests at the Planetarium again. ]

[ rushing forward with a glock the second the barrier's down -- ]

Ruler-san, I can help you with this. It shoots fire, but it should heal you.

[ unfortunately she won't just shoot fire without asking ]

[discernments]

[ Unfortunately, asking her means she can refuse.

Jeanne doesn't move for a long moment even after she's addressed, but when she turns away from where Kano once was and looks at Ochako, her expression softens a fraction. She isn't smiling, but her appreciation is clear in her eyes. ]

Thank you, but you should save it for someone else.

[infreefall]

But your injuries...

[ is it because of the fire? soo-won's comment is still fresh in her mind, but ochako isn't going to force this on someone who doesn't want it. ]

...Can I at least help you with them? Finding bandages, or something?

[discernments]

[ It's not all because of the fire. It's mostly because she doesn't think her wounds are serious enough to need a magical cure. ]

Yes, I would appreciate that a lot. [ ... ] I'm afraid it's difficult for me to move too much, but you can use my cloak.

[ Her space outfit is handy for this one thing. She offers up her PHS for Ochako to take. ]

[infreefall]

[ she nods and kneels by jeanne, setting the gun down carefully. ]

So... just tear it into strips, right?

[ she's never done first aid but she'll try. ]

[discernments]

Yes. You may request lessons from Archer later, if you want.

[ Yeah, she just volunteered Chiron, but also she doesn't know anyone's feelings on Chiron pulling out his bow? She's not aware that happened at all. ]

We can also leave and find a knife for it to make it easier for you.

[infreefall]

I can do this much, I think. [ she'll work on that, then, and carefully start wrapping the wounds. ] I don't have anything for the pain, though. Are you sure you'll be okay?
