Oh, some say, in life, you're gonna get what you give - but some things only God can forgive

[ It's quiet in the hospital after this trial. Time passes and there are no notes slipped under doors.

The eerie silence reflects the horrors that have been witnessed today. More than any other week, there is a lingering understanding that there are thing regrouping and cooperation will never be able to fix.

There are 7 dead to mourn. No amount of funeral will bring them back.

The rules George has posted to the kitchen at the start of the week have been kicked over. ]

((ooc: This is not a week for any amount of partying, no matter how little, so here is the after-moping. Tell us where your character mopes, group together to mope together, etc...))

Perhaps, but they've complicated things for themselves. They've gotten rid of their mouthpiece, at least temporarily, because letting someone supposedly under their protection die was worth getting her upset enough with them to be a problem.

She did say something about that, didn't she... perhaps they didn't think that Sakura was capable of retaliating the way she did?

[crywiththesaints]

Or that she'd blow their secret.

I'm pretty sure they should have expected that deal to be off the table the moment Rin turned up dead.

[They must have a really bad judge of character if they thought Sakura would still keep quiet after that. Killing Kogami though was unexpected...]

[crywiththesaints]

Perhaps they feel they already got what they needed out of her.

... That's a rather scary thought to consider, honestly.

[he liked the idea that this would be an inconvenience for them better]

[crywiththesaints]

Most things worth considering are. It's important to keep the things that would endanger you in mind.

[...]

Do you think we have any chance here of preventing another day like today from happening again?

[There used to be nineteen of us. Now there are only twelve of them as of today.]

[crywiththesaints]

That's difficult to say. Somebody could quite easily have broken from this and decided everyone is bound to die soon anyway. Or decided not to kill, because they're bound to fail.

What you should ask is if you want to live.

[doctorize]

... I do. But I'm more concerned about who here might decide their life is worth more than the rest of us left.

[crywiththesaints]

Their life, or their cause. Don't forget that.
