I have a dream that I want to fulfill with you...

[tsugomori]

[ Well, that was an extraordinary trial to have... it was certainly filled with many things that wouldn't be lost to the memory of most, even for weeks to come. Although, the return to "normalcy" could be something that wouldn't seem like it was wanted, it was better than the alternative to returning to anything at all.

With ease, Mikazuki find himself setting up the usual party in the usual place-- that would be the library of course. Notes have been slipped underneath the doors of others, or hung up on the walls to alert them of this post-trial "celebration" -- which was more like a get-together of some sorts now than a real party. ]


Please join us in the library again. Of course, food and drink will be provided.

- Mikazuki, Orihime, Hanyuu, & Estelle

[ The food and drink has been set out, what with there being tea, vichyssoise, cream puffs, and fish for everyone to enjoy. ]

[Oh, that's interesting. ...Maybe going after the knight would be better? Hanyuu starts chasing after it with her rook instead.]

It is one of the most difficult sins to bear. It would be more concerning if you didn't feel that guilt.

[Like Kira. Like Kyrie.]

I imagine it would be. To kill without feeling remorse. I... I don't understand how people could ever come to feel that way.

[She'll move her knight closer to the opposing pawns.]

[oyashiromama]

[Hanyuu, it seems, is very indecisive when it comes to chess plans, because she then moves a pawn so it won't be in danger.]

It's...hard, but I've seen my share of those who do. More often there's confliction, even the smallest amount. Sometimes...it's just how they work, or it's the product of circumstance. Sometimes it's desperation. Try as I might, it's something...I can't fully understand, just how it arises.

[She has to think now, too. The knight could end up being a sacrifice if she moves it, but it would also put the king in check. Not too hard to get out of check, but still something she could do.

She makes the move anyway. One of her chess pieces could probably take her knight.]

I have a friend... he murdered two people who committed g-genocide, but little to no lawful action was taken against them. So he figured that was the best option, even if it made him a criminal.

[oyashiromama]

[And indeed, it is sacrificed.]

Did your friend think long and hard on what he did? On what he felt he had to do?
