On Monday afternoon, regardless of where the Wickets, Ghosts, Thieves and Counselors are, they will each soon find a familiar blue, gray or purple bunny at their feet, circling around them before zooming its way back to the directors' office. It will continue hounding each of them until they follow, leading them into the door marked 3A CONFERENCE.

Inside, they will find a couch pushed against one wall, a whiteboard on the wall opposite to the door, and a low circular table with bean bag chairs set around it. There is a water cooler and snack shelf in one corner of the room, and decorative plants can be found here and there.

Their rules will remain unchanged. However, that does not mean there haven't been a shift in the status quo. There is no dartboard when they enter the conference room. No choices to make. Nothing. Instead, the group will find stacks of pizza boxes (the brand has been blacked out with a sharpie), ice cream, soda and other assorted treats. In the back of the room, they will spot a handmade banner that reads:

CONGRATULATIONS, YOU'RE FIRED!! 👍👍


After noticing all these things, whichever of them arrives first will notice that Veronica, Junpei and Wen Ning are seated at the low table. Were they always there...? Oh, well. They plop their respective bunny down on their lap and gesture at them to take a seat.

It's time to chat.

...I was, and still am, but that should not stop you from feeling how you feel.

If you are angry, it is alright to be.

. . . I am angry.

[even now that fury boils in his gut, hot and threatening to spill over]

But not at you guys. Not-- as much as everything else.

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-07-20 04:55 pm (UTC)(link)
...you have every right to be. Even if you are less angry at us than at everything else, you still have the right to be angry.

[...]

In Yu's case... [she bites her lip] We were not intending to hurt him. But he caught us discussing how to handle Ogata, just before curfew.

. . . how to handle Ogata?

[giving her a. very curious look at that]
fishingforcompliments: (022)

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-07-20 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
He was our intended target.

[...]

But - neither of us had the heart to... spill more blood. So we decided to frame him, instead.

. . . I don't blame you.

[he says quietly, and as he remembers that trial. . .]

It worked, too.

[they sure did scapegoat Ogata!!]

. . .

[reaches out to ruffle her hair!! Flayn is the only one who gets a hair ruffle instead of a punch]

[she is not expecting that at all. she looks up at him, startled, but -

...actually manages to smile, and it reaches her eyes.]


Akira... thank you.

[personal profile] survivaltricks 2020-07-20 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
. . . mmm.

I made my decision last week, when you all trusted me with the secrets you've been keeping from everyone else.

[and he doesn't regret it, either]

I'll support you guys as much as I can. [. . .] Even if I agree that people will have a right to be angry.

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-07-20 05:19 pm (UTC)(link)
I will never, ever disagree that they all have the right to be very angry.

[honestly she probably won't disagree even if they try to revenge kill her.]

...but it means a lot, to have your support. And... and your trust, too, in spite of everything.

[personal profile] survivaltricks 2020-07-20 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I believe you all want the same thing we want. That's all.

[for everyone to get out of here alive]

And I maintain that you all got the shittier end of the deal. To be forced into making yourselves the villains. . .

. . . it really, really sucks.
fishingforcompliments: (041)

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-07-20 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
...it does, but -

If nothing else... I am glad that the others have not needed to... discover how it feels to take a life in this place. I am very glad of that.

[...]

After Shinobu was replaced, I knew that I had to see this through - or else someone else would wind up in my position.

[personal profile] survivaltricks 2020-07-20 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
And you saw it through.

[he says quietly]

You carried this burden on your shoulders despite its crushing weight. That's. . . brave of you, Flayn.
fishingforcompliments: (022)

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-07-20 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[she shakes her head]

It is what anyone would have done, I think.
survivaltricks: (pic#13006406)

[personal profile] survivaltricks 2020-07-21 06:29 pm (UTC)(link)
No. Probably not.

[he isn't sure he could have done it. while it sucks that he hasn't managed to protect anyone. . . a small part of him is grateful he also didn't have to hurt anyone]
fishingforcompliments: (039)

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-07-22 02:08 pm (UTC)(link)
No..?

[flayn looks a little confused, but also, she comes from a war game, so.]

I struggle to think of anyone here who would have wanted to give the job to someone else simply because they did not want to do it. But - perhaps I do not know all of you as well as I ought to...
