WEEK TWO EXECUTION

week two: execution no melodies no memories
Hopefully you got a long night of sleep? Barring that, you got whatever answers, or closure, you might have needed. Because it's strangely quiet, the following Sunday morning, the everyday background music you've all gotten used to reduced to mere echoes on the wind.

Breaking the silence, somewhere, much like the song of Friday, there is the echoing, cruel laughter of voices you should faintly recognize throughout the city. It's followed by humming of that newly familiar song. It's strongest, interestingly, close to the plaza.

As time turns to 1 PM, though, there is a change as the voices fade. While there's no compulsion to investigate it, there's a small gathering in the plaza. Your three Watchers are here with their daemons, and so are... Suigetsu, and his daemon, front and center. All damages and evidence, anything amiss from the weekend, is all gone, and replaced with the state of the plaza from the week prior.

Nearby, the Watchers stand clustered together. Suriel is silent where they lean on their crutch, wings drooping under their cloak as their caracal paces restlessly. Shamsiel is also silent as they stand there to the other side of Suriel, their cloak covering them completely with the exception of their one good arm which clenches at their chest. Keeping an eye on Suigetsu is Baraqiel, tiger-formed daemon tracking Naito closely, pacing where the Watchers have estimated the boundary will be.

And then, another party will be compelled to join them. Rochalizo will find that his feet are carrying him to his destination, Philia sticking close to him as they travel across banks and canals to the heart of the markets. Once he passes through the centermost area of the plaza, opposite where Suigetsu stands, he'll find that he can't go back, and neither can his daemon.

Likewise, no one can enter the plaza further than where the three Watchers stand, having gotten a good gauge of what will happen now. There will be no interfering from outside parties, no matter what it is that's about to happen. Any attempts to do so will result in them meeting an invisible barrier, one that rebuffs them with the same amount of force used against it—so take care.

It won't wear off before the end of this execution either.

Someone out there might be worrying about Suigetsu. It's not impossible.

He literally murdered someone and was going to let someone else take the fall for it.

It could be Suigetsu himself who has access to such a curse.

[personal profile] senjinrouha 2021-10-17 08:13 pm (UTC)(link)
That would make more sense than the other alternative.

...it could be.

[she clenches her fists tightly. god, she hates having to watch this.]

Wasn't there a power that could dispel curses?

[ You know what. She doesn't have that, but she does have this stupid ability to summon magic maracas that force things to dance, and as far as she knows there's no rule about it not working on crab summons, so???

Thank you.

Think about the rhyming curse. They had a set time before they wore off -- Sholmes and Van Zieks rhymed through the whole trial.
