Take Responsibility.

The allotted time for investigating comes to an end, and those elevator doors slide open at the end of the first-floor corridor; it's a bit of a walk down from the fifth floor, but at least the ride down is swift and smooth. To say nothing of spacious. Your numbers are running low. The podium circle, as always, stands out against the black-walled courtroom where it's encircling that pit in the center; Mettaton and Shirazu have joined the ranks of the deceased, photographs in greyscale watching the proceedings from their podiums draped in black. The Kingmaker, too, is watching all of you; as always, it isn't until everyone has settled at their podium that he speaks, his voice sounding out through the room for all to hear. "Sacrificial has been taken from you. Maybe this time the guilty party is going to actually succeed at Rule Seven - but of course, whether they manage it is still up to the rest of you." Eleven Survivors remain. How many are still standing by the end of the day is up to you.

You don't need buttons to turn something on, honey. Sometimes it's as easy as the flick of a switch or a turn of the dial.

[Which these radios have (one of) at least.]

You'd just have to be lying in wait with a radio. Can't say how you kept him under, since the blood was dry but he obviously wasn't, but that's as far as I am.

Neither of those things. [ See this, because Aiden is a control freak.]

[Aiden, please.

Same.]

... Then did you mess with your phone enough? Whether it's the one we all have or... your own... I don't know, but if it's to save your sister, then even a short truce would've been good enough.

[She knows a few people, both alive but mostly dead, who would've taken this for the exact reason. It was Misa's reason too, after all.]
