WEEK FOUR: EXECUTION

WEEK FOUR: EXECUTION

Some of you may have slept well knowing you did the right thing. Other of you may have tossed and turned, struggling with feelings of guilt and unease. Regardless of which group you fit into, it doesn't change the fact that on Sunday morning all guests will find themselves compelled to head to the front door. When all have gathered, the door will swing open and allow the group to witness a scene on the front lawn.

Lio has been set out in his metal cage, isolated from the rest of the group. It isn't long before Peach, Plum and Pumpkin appear from another part of the yard wheeling a large box. Stopping in front of the cage, the trio begins to speak.

"We gather here today to say goodbye to our dear friend, Lio Fotia.

Lio Fotia was usually mad
But maybe it hid the fact he was sad
And even though he was making new friends
He found himself changing in the end
A fire was set in his heart and soul
As the dragon swarmed and achieved its goal
So to save him we give a final blow
...well...good luck, Galo."

Three pairs of eyes turn and lock on a face in the crowd.

"Galo, it's time.

It seems as though Galo doesn't have a choice. The moment the girls summon the chosen party, they will find themselves walking forward against their best judgment. All other guests will be unable to step past the threshold, but nothing's stopping them from leaving either.

[Looks at Galo... Looks at her...]

He knows he can’t just wait for Lio to snap out of it, right...?

[recrypt]

I told him he has to kill the monster. What he took away from that conversation is on him.

[ helpless? shrug? ]

[miscakes]

Has anyone thought to ask what will happen if the executioner dies?

[Because, uh, Galo... Sweetie... For fuck's sake...]

[counterclocked]

He's not going to die.

[He sounds a little bit ??? about that, though.]

[miscakes]

... He will if he keeps letting this drag on. The exhaustion will catch up with him.

[HE HAS MANY CONCERNS, HUNTER.]

[counterclocked]

45 told him what he has to do, so maybe he's just... I don't know.

[Bad!]

[miscakes]

[Bad!! He's silent after that, jaw clenched until

Lio fucking breaks through the lounge's wall


so that's fun!]

[recrypt]

[ what's that she can't hear ]

I hope someone did, after what happened last week, but.

[ galo please just like. ice stab him or something she doesn't know what else that mech can do at this point maybe there's an ice laser ]

[miscakes]

But no one did, did they?

[Galo please just murder your boyfriend, you coward.]
