THOSE CONVICTED: PLEASE STEP FORWARD.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING AND COOPERATION.

As the clock begins to wind towards 1:00 PM, things on the ship are... quiet. The tension is thick in the air, trepidation abundant. You pulled off the impossible - but was it worth it? Some of you are with the convicted in the brig, waiting, waiting, and the Senior Crew among you are just as tense. A few sit in the brig alongside you, while others wait outside. Hope against hope, right? That maybe something can be done.

(If nothing else, Sheba and Shouxue aren't alone in all of this. You've made sure of that.)

But, much like at trial, there is a shift to the silence. A pair of pneumonic hisses resound in the brig, and the convicted are simply - gone. The tubes that are used to take them away to the brig from the conference hall are now used to transport them elsewhere. No one is expelled from the brig. No one is locked out. They're simply taken away. And then the Eudora's AI calls out across the ship, informing you of where to go. Even if you don't make your way there willingly, your feet will carry you there.

None of you have ever seen the Sim & Grav rooms deactivated in full, before, but you do now - the eerie, orange glow of the blank space, filled with a faint, pink haze when you first arrive, doesn't make a particularly inviting scene when you arrive. But you're brought to the main, largest room, used for large group simulations and zero gravity runs, where a sweet scent lingers as the pink haze fades. And once you've gathered together to one side, that's where you'll be staying - a shimmery barrier falls down to separate you all from what the Eudora has decreed will be an execution.

[charles is here, in the same outfit he was wearing in trial and looking like he hasn't gotten much sleep yet again.]

... Should I be glad she's finally eating...?

[german swearing under his breath when sheba goes for it, before he slowly exhales smoke.

well, maybe that's a better option for her, honestly.]

[shouxue's trying to stop her now, though, so. this is going to go badly one way or another. charles just tenses, hand gripping the hilt of his practice sword—not because he wants to pull it out, but more because the act seems to help ground him.]

[fucking mood charles.

he doesn't have a weapon to hold tight to, but he's equally tense while he watches.]

[...

in a weird way, this is horrible and it shouldn't have to be in their hands, but it's actually kind of better to see shouxue going FUCK YOU at sheba and sheba thinking about how to get around that rather than having them both die utterly depressed and devoid of will to act.]
