DECEMBER EVENT PART THREE: WITH THE DAWN OF REDEEMING GRACE

[the voice from the imaginary loudspeaker resounds again.]

I do believe that’s the best you all can do. Hopefully it will be enough… Gather in the lobby at your earliest convenience. There, you will find an elevator. It will take you to your next location. [pause] Mind the severed heads.

[the elevator they find in the lobby is not one that had been there before: it is strange, a bit too large and industrial for what is generally a Victorian manor. nothing will compel them to board it, but… hey. if you stay behind, you miss out on all the fun, right?

and the fun starts here. because, as soon as they board the elevator, and the door closes, it drops.

not that far. not enough to harm. certainly enough to startle, especially after it evens out, before plunging a few more feet. the effect likely wears off after the fifth time it does this.

eventually, the elevator stops completely, and opens to a large, mostly empty room. in the center is a large circular stage, ringed with enough podiums for everyone that went on the excursion - living and dead. some of the podiums are covered in white sheets; one might notice that the number of dead corresponds directly to the number of covered podiums.

the Captain is present, of course. he sits on a raised throne separate from the circle, dressed in a suit a tiny bit different than his normal one. he sits with one leg crossed over the other, looking down at them with a completely neutral expression.]


You may take your places. [he gestures magnanimously, then holds up his hand; please reserve the expected freakouts for after his announcements, thanks.] The game is very simple. You have the evidence; put it together, and decide on the guilty party. Only a unanimous decision will bring you the justice you seek. [a faint smile] The one you always seek, at least.

[another gesture]

Questions. Comments. Threats against my life. Concerns.

"I'm not a pirate!" A whiny protest! "How dare you think of others at a time like this."

He's just kidding, and hugs Klaus cheerfully! "It'll be okay."

“You could be a pirate,” he whispers. “You’ve got my booty.” Eh? Ehhhh? Great joke, right?

Klaus happily accepts the hug. “Good.”
konpeito_aji: (whatever)

"Shit... that's really hot." Nobunaga hisses quietly in Klaus' ear! "I wanted to be one when I was a little kid. Kipposhi age. Okay. But you have to be one with me. And don't ever tell Ari. She's very scared of pirates."

"Of course I'll be one with you." There's a smile here and he presses a quick kiss to Nobunaga's temple. "We'll do something with this later. When we're not in court proceedings or whatever."
konpeito_aji: (mufufu)

A small barking laugh and a grin.

"I can already envision it."

“I wish we’d gotten pirate costumes.” A beat. “Did you get one?”
konpeito_aji: (whatever)

Side glance away!!!

"Yeah, of course." Of course he says! Then a sly side glance back to Klaus. "Good thing it's an impossible invasion of privacy the Lieutenant would never ever do." Whispered in Klaus' ear before giving he him a quick cheek kiss.

Klaus smiles a little. "Well, then I guess you can play the pirate that's kidnapped me and I'll pretend to be unhappy with this to the best of my abilities. You can tie me up and everything." Yep!
konpeito_aji: (I always win)

Nobunaga just closes he eyes... and groans. Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck fuck. "That's hot." He's not blushing, but his cheeks are heated with pure lust!!

"I will make you tell me all your secrets: captive prisoner." He leans in with an evil smirk. At least he's not biting Klaus with everyone around them, but he's dangerously close to not holding back.

"I know. That's why I said it." It's going to be that much more disappointing when it doesn't happen.

There's a smirk in return. "I'm sure you can get all of them out of me. I'm weak when it comes to you." He's quiet for a moment before, "But we'd better stop while we're ahead. Still a whole trial to get through."
konpeito_aji: (blushy Demon King)

[personal profile] konpeito_aji 2023-01-02 06:58 am (UTC)(link)
Just. All the blushing. And Nobunaga buries his face into Klaus' shoulder. "One moment. Just let me borrow you strength a little longer."
busball: (34)

Klaus smiles, running a hand over Nobunaga’s back. “Okay. Just a little longer. For you.”
