END OF CHAPTER 1 ; EXECUTION

[themodsgrimm]

The Story Continues... END OF CHAPTER 1 - WEEK 134 Narrators Remain ; It's execution day, naughty murder children. Breakfast is served in the dining hall, all the better to fortify you for what is to come. Wherever you might wander in the castle, you will find yourself drawn to the foyer when the clock strikes not twelve, but ten. In the distance, there is the sound of clanking armor. Ann Takamaki appears, flanked on either side by suits of armor, escorting her to her punishment. She stares straight ahead with each step closer to the group that they take. A moment later, the Tiger appears on the foyer's staircase. Her hand trails down the banister as she sashays down it, and she takes her place at the head of the group, standing in front of what appears to be a wall. "Come along, darlings," she says. "The execution awaits." You blink, and then it's there — a door leading to the outside. The Tiger steps through it. You have no choice but to follow. Welcome to your second execution post! Please see here for the results of yesterday's voting. In addition, make sure you fill out your CR Chart for Chapter 1! If you have any questions, please ask on our Discord server or ping us on plurk. Please direct pings for the NPC to Danielle (Discord DMs preferred, then entrappings), as she will be taking point for today's NPC, and the moderator team will be on deck for all other questions. full navigation. locations taken (statuses) stories (profiles) info & faq wishing well private conversations

[At that, he puts on the tiniest smile.]

Do you perhaps mean Akechi-kun?

[resumed]

Yes. Unless you have someone in mind.

[finethanks]

No, that's exactly who I'd assumed you'd mean.

But Akechi-kun is my partner. I'm better off with him alive than I am with him dead, you know? Those tricks that play out each execution— I can't rely on them.

[resumed]

What would you do if you were ever assigned a new partner? Since that seems to be a thing that happens here.

[finethanks]

What kind of question is that, I wonder? I'd live, and I'd be terribly upset that anyone harmed Akechi.

It doesn't seem as if the reassignment of partners is painless, either.

[resumed]

It almost looks like nothing here is entirely painless. [A light shrug.] But it was just a question.

...he's lucky to have you.
