SURPLUS AMOUNT OF BODY SIGNATURES DETECTED IN BRIG THAN REQUESTED. INITIATING EJECTION...

This week is a little different from the last. So many of you stayed at the brig with the Senior Crew to take shifts watching over the incarcerated. Everyone is vigilant, this time prepared. Even if this may not work, there's a desire to show resistance and defiance, or maybe it's just a night to bond...

All is calm, peaceful, until dawn breaks.

Emergency alarms blare loudly, waking everyone up and, if that isn't enough, everyone is force-ejected outside the brig and stasis bay, briefly capable of seeing their capsuled dead with Viktor recently added to the number. The senior crew get no special treatment, with the one on duty falling on their ass with the rest of you right by your lockers here. The familiar barrier falls down, preventing anyone from going through... This week, you do not need to crowd around to get a glimpse. The security cameras work now and everyone can watch the cell from their I.R.I.S.

They will be able to perfectly see Eunhyuk and Rosamund.

Want me to lie?

[psynchroneyes]

No, it's... whatever. I know this is bad.

[solesuccess]

[ he just watches the iris for a little longer and listens, but after a moment there is a light, almost gentle nudge. sorry. ]

We're able to watch this time. At least we can be ready for whatever happens.

[psynchroneyes]

[ ... ]

I—can already tell where this is going.

[solesuccess]

Oh, so now you agree with me? [ this is. not great. ]

[psynchroneyes]

Is this really the time to be a smartass.

[solesuccess]

It's way better than the alternative.

[psynchroneyes]

And what's the alternative?

[solesuccess]

I think you know exactly what the alternative is.

[ sometimes bad things happen and then you (redacted) ]

[psynchroneyes]

[ ...

yeah.

instead of answering, she watches the fight upon the screen. ]

[solesuccess]

[ it's fine he seems to have exhausted the talking option, too, so they can just sit here and watch the slowly dawning horrors. ]

[psynchroneyes]

[ the horrors persist but so do we ]

[solesuccess]

[ oh this is no longer horrors this is now just depression...a different breed of horror. there's just a frown with eunhyuk's words because, like, what a sentiment. ]
