. . . the entertainment cabin.

[ugh]

And you?

[voidbreaker]

Isolation cabin.

... Zenitsu was there with us.

[ he looks. conflicted. And then more determined than anything: ]

Did you use your power yesterday?

[survivaltricks]

[. . . oh. Akira's expression falls as he lifts his head]

Yin Yu was with us in the entertainment cabin.

[so. mood]

And no. . . I didn't.

[voidbreaker]

Promise me you won’t use it, we need it on Sunday.

[ ... ] Yin Yu used his power on Lili. So we need it to not be on her when execution rolls around.

[survivaltricks]

[oh]

[he huffs out a breath, lips twitching]

I know. I already heard.

Don't worry; if Yin Yu's plan works and we find out who killed him, I'll save it for her so she doesn't die on Sunday, too.

[voidbreaker]

[ he nods, looking a bit more relaxed than he did a minute or so ago. ]

I did tell her I’d ask you, but I guess being patient ain’t in her vocabulary.

[survivaltricks]

[oh my god. JUST. . . SHOOTS HIM AN AMUSED LOOK]

It's cute that you're worried about her.

[voidbreaker]

Yeah?

She’s my friend. I’m not interested in seeing any of you die.

[survivaltricks]

She's my friend, too. [his own features soften at that]

And I won't let her die. I promise.

[voidbreaker]

She's the sort of person who'd probably roll with it for the "greater good" even if she didn't really want to, so yeah. We've gotta stop that from happening.

[ also because cucking dana from death is my favourite hobby ]

[survivaltricks]

[DANA DESERVES TO BE CUCKED FROM DEATH]

Well, she's an idiot. And pointless sacrifice is dumb.

[HE WON'T ALLOW FOR IT]

All that aside, I took a look at the bonfire. It smells like chemicals and there's shrapnel buried in the dirt near it.

[voidbreaker]

She is. But it's the same kind of self-sacrificing morality I'm used to dealing with so I think we can sort her out.

[ rip dana's chances of death ]

Shrapnel? What kind?

[survivaltricks]

[he shakes his head]

I couldn't tell.

[. . .]

Ash. . . do you have your heat-seeking missile with you?

[voidbreaker]

[ hold up, some pack diggin's going on and then ash will present uno skydancer for akira's approval. ]

You checking everyone then?

[survivaltricks]

[well, he looks relieved when he sees it, at least]

Everyone I know who has an explosive. Not that I think the shrapnel belonged to a sky dancer, but it's better to check.

[voidbreaker]

Any ideas what it might've actually belonged to?

[survivaltricks]

I have a few theories, but nothing I can confirm now.

[see: the hair-dye can theory he has back during trial]

[voidbreaker]

[ whomp whomp ]

Right.

It should be an interesting trial.

[survivaltricks]

[WHOMP WHOMP]

Aren't they all "interesting?"

[AIR QUOTES]

[voidbreaker]

Do you want me to say "action packed" instead?

[survivaltricks]

No, because then it sounds like you're advertising for some kind of movie.

[voidbreaker]

It's entertainment to at least one mystery person here.

[survivaltricks]

[UGH]

Don't remind me. I still want to punch Pinkie in the face.

[voidbreaker]

Fingers crossed we get the chance to.

[survivaltricks]

It'll be stress relief.

[rotates his shoulder back like he's winding up for a swing]
