Who: Designated Killers
When: Sunday after incentives
What: Sixth meeting

[While the doors to the smoking room are usually locked, they'll open for the four people who have been called here. Of course, as the five enter, they'll find that they aren't alone this morning. A man is standing in the back of the room. He's wearing a black suit, a top hat, and a gas mask, and he doesn't move to acknowledge anyone or speak as they enter the room.

Once everyone is inside, the doors will lock behind them.]

[Feferi waits for everyone to be assembled before she speaks up.]

When I talked to Phoenix near the end, he said to tell you guys... He's sorry.

[lullabytes]

...I don't blame him for a thing.

[ He...made his choice and did his best. ]

[impheired]

...yeah, how could we?

[He tried and...well he did do something good in the end?]

You can still do something for him since he tried, right? Or...did Fey getting ruled as the true culprit fuck up his chances?

[He...still got an execution? Not a hanging??]

[lullabytes]

The worst thing won't happen, since he tried. Everyone knows...Maya-san wasn't really the true culprit anyway...

[ They all bullshitted that. ]

[impheired]

Well there's...that at least. Obviously he won't get his job back now but...his daughter should be okay, right?

[Actually...didn't the guy who was supposedly going to kill Trucy just get shot in the head anyway? Maybe it really DID work out okay...]

[lullabytes]

Yeah. She should be.

[ UNLESS SHE KEEPS SHOWING UP AS APOLLO'S FREAKING MOTIVE but yeah that was definitely the dude who was going to kill Trucy. Go...team...go.............. ]

Anyway...if possible, let's take the week off. I think...someone else will probably go...?

[ Maybe... ]

If not, I'll let you guys know as usual.

[ But lbr each time they've gone it's been by choice. They have yet to HAVE to go. ]

[impheired]

Do you think that's safe, given how all three of us ranked this week? I guess we'll just have to be extra careful...

[lullabytes]

Mm, pair off. Everyone be sure you're with someone as much as possible...and if we could set up traps at the entrances to your rooms, that would be good.

Ah, and...Kuzuryuu-kun, stop scowling and start smiling. If that's the way to protect you now, we have to do it.

[impheired]

...goddammit...this is such fuckin' bullshit I swear...

[KUZURYUU STOP MUMBLING.]

[derepressed]

Smile, Kuzuryuu-san. Like... like this. [She'll demonstrate by bringing her fingers to her own face and stretching her lips into a smile!]

[impheired]

[This is a smile, right? Just like this.]

I know how to smile!! Fuckin' hell, you're all talking like I never do it...

[derepressed]

We've been very lucky and have been able to see Kuzuryuu-san's smile more often than most. I think the others would like to be able to see it, too.

[impheired]

I don't see why...it's really not that big a fuckin' deal...

[derepressed]

It's extra special when it comes from someone who doesn't smile often. It's like a present!

[impheired]

[CHIZURU THAT WAS SO CHEESY...]

Holy hell, you're kiddin' me, right?

[But hey, there's something that might just be a smile playing around the corners of his lips. So...victory? Sort of. Almost-victory.]

[derepressed]

Eh? What is there to kid about?

[She is dead serious... oh look, he's smiling! Kind of! She giggles.] See, you're smiling now, too!

[lullabytes]

It's easier to relax in here sometimes...

[ Nanami's smiling, too, watching them.

LITTLE DO THEY KNOW THIS IS THEIR LAST (?) SMOKING ROOM MEETING, THANKS BUNCHES APOLLO. ]

[derepressed]

It is. I'm... glad for it.

[Even if it means they're going to have to kill sometime.

...ALSO YEAH. GOOD JOB BREAKING IT, HERO.]
