Week 3: Post Trial

[disclosures]

[Well here it is, the first time they didn't have enough evidence or enough skill to figure out who was actually guilty. So they condemned somebody completely innocent to their death. There's nothing they can do for him now.

She supposes she's lucky she wasn't close to any of the victims or Yasusada.

Rebecca can be found in the kitchen. While she doesn't seem sickened by any of this, she doesn't seem happy about it either.]

Zombies, murder castles- it sounds like a great formula for a horror movie.

... I don't want one of those.

[asswipe]

You and me both.

[disclosures]

Is it better to just die to get out of this mess?

[asswipe]

Like hell it is. That sounds like a one way ticket to screwing ourselves over.

[disclosures]

Somebody needs to die every week, don't they?

[Why not target somebody who already wants to get out of this. But it's not just her life on the line here, is it?]

... I won't do that to my partner.

[asswipe]

... Good. Please, don't.

[rebecca.......]

After tonight, I think completing our objectives is more important than winning the war the traditional way, anyway...

[disclosures]

You think so? I've already done one of mine. It gives you a wish token that isn't also cursed.

What about you? Do you need help with yours?

[asswipe]

One. You got a second one?

[Like Monika...? Hm. Either way, Veronica chuckles. Awkwardly.]

... My objective isn't something I can get help with, but I'm working on it. Thank you for offering, though, Rebecca. I appreciate it.

[disclosures]

Honestly I don't know if there's an end to them.

What's yours? And, uh... do you have like, a small wish? Or any wishes?

[asswipe]

... I'd like my diary back, I guess. That's small.

[hm.]

Mine's... embarrasing. And I should be done with it tonight, so there's that. [she hates it, thanks!!] What about you? Do you need help with your second objective?

[disclosures]

Did it get stolen while we've been here?

Alright, that's great. ... I need to... lead a sing-a-long as a distraction. [Honestly, what the fuck kind of objective is that?]

[asswipe]

Not exactly. It didn't come with me when I arrived here.

[but, uh.

raising both of her eyebrows.]

Like... something to take our minds off murder? Or a distraction while we're doing something important?

[disclosures]

Does it definitely have to be yours, or will any empty book work?

Like during a trial or during an investigation. It's probably better like, in an investigation, right? Because we're not time locked. But then I've gotta be around people who'll also be willing to also sing.

[asswipe]

Preferably mine, but I'll take a real notebook at this point.

[... oh, jeez.]

Would it work if you asked others to sing with you beforehand?

[disclosures]

Maybe...? I don't know the details of it.

Would you be willing to do a sing a long with me? The next time we have an investigation?

[asswipe]

Sure. If I'm not a corpse by then, I'll sing with you.

[disclosures]

Great. If your objective becomes something else, I'll help you with it. If it's something you'd need help with. I mean.

Hopefully it'll make the game finish faster.

[asswipe]

Thanks, Rebecca. I'll take you up on that depending on what I get next. [She smiles, just a little.] I... I have a good feeling that it will, so fingers crossed.

[disclosures]

You know where to find me.

[Probably getting drunk.]
