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.

[He seems. Very very confused.]
What do you mean, an "accident"?
no subject
You don't know anything do you?
no subject
[?????????????]
What, and you do?
[ARE YOU A COP]
no subject
[ says me, who was AWOL yesterday ]
Why are you here, anyway? Is this something you do here, just show up to gawk at someone dying?
no subject
[He frowns a little at that.]
No. What do you think I am? This is what the heroes run, y'know. They encourage this kinda stuff. It's kind of a reminder just how bad it can be. And it's a reminder to people not to go down the life of villainy if they can help it.

[ there's a tightness to her jaw that might suggest she's trying to rein her temper in right now, but oof. ]
...
That's... insane. Death isn't a spectacle-- do they just do that no matter what? They don't care about the specifics, there's no adjustment, no acknowledgement of intention or situation? Your heroes just have them killed like it's nothing?
no subject
[Hm.]
When one of their own kind is killed by a villain like this...I mean. That's what they've always done for crimes of that nature.

... That doesn't sound like something a hero would do.
[ ... ]
She's a hero too, you know. That's what this place dragged her here to be, whether she wanted it or not.
no subject
[hmmmmmmmmmmmmm]
Hey, how do you know this kind of stuff, again?
no subject
no subject
Are you a hero, ma'am?
no subject
Yeah. Apparently, I am.
no subject
[writing down this mental drama happening between heroes i mean what]
Did you know the guy who died?
no subject
[ remember where she said you seem like a sussy baka, sampo? ]
Does it matter? It sounds like you already believe you know what happened.

But if you're this mad....well. I wouldn't take it out on citizens who don't know any better. If I were you, why....I'd take it up with the management. I guess they didn't include this in the fine print, huh? Wonder why that is...?
Is your whole hero enterprise really heroic to begin with?

Wow... pretty sly words for "just some average citizen, lady"! Anyone would think you were trying to stir up trouble.
no subject
Is it a crime to simply state what's on people's minds? Look at what's happening. The locals here seem fine with it. But you'd have to be pretty blind to miss the fact that a few people like you never expected a thing like this at all.
no subject
The fact you can spot all this yet still show up to the public execution like it's a baseball match on a Sunday aren't helping you shake off my accusations of you being shady, you know.
no subject
[just]
[says this]
But even besides that, things like this are a big deal. I'm only one of hundreds here, after all.
no subject
And that makes you even more shady. Congratulations.
[ she makes a shooing motion with her hands. ] Go be vouyeristic elsewhere.
