Week 0: Execution

week 0:
 
execution

Sunday morning starts off quietly enough, almost peaceful after the events of the past few days. Today, the alarm on everyone's phone starts at 12 PM, with a reminder of the execution to take place at 1 PM at the stadium. Unlike the Saturday notifications, however, this is the only reminder you get. It appears that attendance is not mandatory this time.

Well. Not for all of you, anyway. One of you feels a compulsion to head to the stadium, heading straight inside and following the staff to ready themselves for what's to come. All others who arrive at the stadium, hero or civilian, are led to spectator seating.

As the clock strikes 1 PM, Mika walks into the arena. On the opposite end of the field, Temenos steps out to greet them. As long as they both live, neither will able to leave the area, nor will any outsiders be able to enter.

You don't have to watch, of course. That's your choice. But with the event being broadcast all over the city, it may be hard to avoid. In-person or across town, everywhere is buzzing with gossip of the newly discovered villain about to face justice. Regardless of where you go or whether you choose to watch, the only thing to do now is wait.

"Accidental killings"?

[He seems genuinely confused.]

I don't know the details, pal, but if someone's being executed, it's for good reason. They're bad. Really, really bad. Not just any Joe Schmoe would get put in something like this.

That's exactly what happened here. The girl ended up accidentally killing another guy. It wasn't purposeful or anything.

[ Hm... this is not good at all. He knew things were sus but this is getting worse and worse as time goes on. ]

Is it normal for no details to be given about people sentenced to executions? Just that 'whoever's gettin' killed is a villain who was a danger to everybody around?'

But the guy was another hero? How can you be so sure it was accidental? This place is still reeling from the death of those heroes a month ago...

[He's so ?????????????. What are you talking about, man?]
odoruhinokaze: (uh huh.....)

[personal profile] odoruhinokaze 2023-09-24 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Eh, it came out in the trial. But, you weren't there, so you wouldn't know unless somebody told you?

[ He could try to convince the guy but Axel ain't a golden boy spokesperson. ]

So, what's this about the death of those heroes? Any specifics about how that went down? Were they all targeted at once, or one by one...or what?

And you were?

[GURL?]

Not sure, exactly. It was a messy time. Everything kind of happened all at once. I think a lot went down in direct fights against villains, but not like I witnessed that kind of stuff.
odoruhinokaze: (so i was like)

[personal profile] odoruhinokaze 2023-09-24 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah, definitely. It went on for hours and hours.

[ His poor lint hot pocket suffered a sad death. There's no way he'd forget the details... ]

...Then after, executions became a thing when the dust cleared? And they started being like 'yo somebody did a bad but we can't say what' kinda format, or what?
lovebombing: (phishing)

[personal profile] lovebombing 2023-09-24 06:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I mean, they said what it was here. She killed a hero.

[SHE KILLED!!! A HERO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]

No, they were a thing even before the moon did a big plunge from a sky.
odoruhinokaze: (wellllll)

[personal profile] odoruhinokaze 2023-09-24 06:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, accidentally. Sounds like they left that one out, huh?

[ But what about the loss of hot pockets? Aren't they the real tragedy here? ]

The moon fell...and somehow this place is still here? How's that work?

[ He ain't a rocket scientist but it sounds like a moon falling would be you know counterproductive to people still being around to see the aftermath. ]

[personal profile] lovebombing 2023-09-24 06:52 pm (UTC)(link)
You keep insisting that, but do you have proof?

[A little bit of a huff.]

I'm assuming a hero took care of it.
odoruhinokaze: (eeeehhh)

[personal profile] odoruhinokaze 2023-09-24 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Nah.

[ He says it just like that. Can someone please give Axel a medal yet? Thankies. ]

So, how do you know if the moon was falling if you think a hero took care of it? Is there anybody even strong enough to do that sort of thing around?

...Wow.

[Wow.]

Because I saw it. And I skedaddled like no tomorrow! But...you know heroes have powers, don't you? Please tell me you know that much.
