EXECUTION...?

[lockdownmods]

[as your goodbyes come to a close—or rather, around the time they would normally come to a close, something… strange happens. This time, Han is notably not on his computer, but instead he seems to be scanning something? Though, upon closer inspection, it becomes obvious that there are small lines of… code? Something… running across the lens of his glasses, and it seems to be reacting to his eye movements.

The lights flicker for a moment, and then power stops. The only sources of light come from Han’s glasses, Connor’s LED (which is running red), and… Vivienne, whose entire body is glowing, and her eyes are focusing like she’s processing something.

It’s eerily quiet, before there’s a distant, but loud, explosion.

The ground beneath everyone’s feet shakes as the shock wave rides through the room, and then there’s nothing. Han taps his glasses, and they stop glowing, as does Vivienne, and Connor’s LED turns back to a normal blue color. The lights flicker on again as power is restored. And Han is happy for a moment, before turning away from the camera, realizing he should hide his expression.

With any luck, there won’t be an execution today.

But then, the intercom flickers on, and a delicate voice begins speaking. It’s strange how quickly her voice seems to precede a wave of cold.]

Professor Hale, there seems to be a malfunction. Could you please bring Professor Young the tools he needs to complete the exam?

[foo_bar]

[wait. what.]

What?

[preconstruction]

[ shit - shit, fuck -- he looks over at han. that's not...he wouldn't...right? ]

Han --

[destroythefuture]

Wait, what does that mean?

[Guess who is still scared witless of dying and now that looks like a very real possibility. His hopes get up oce it's clear something went wrong]

[whatsmytalentagain]

[What the?!]

Wh-What's going on?

[He's backing away from Han and the two "culprits." Whatever this is, he doesn't want to get caught in the crossfire.]

[ososoi]

...What the fuck's going on...?!

[sendintheclown]

Ooh, what's this?

[Gogol edges to the back of the room, purely to observe, of course.]

[buriedearth]

[ He has a bad feeling about this.

Did he--or they--try to stop the execution-- ]

Han, what just happened?

[devotingly]

[ waver’s going to shoot han a look, shakily standing up. he’s doing his best to stay Calm. ]

What the hell... the hell did you do?

[newhire]

Oh hell... It's... it's fine, it's going to be fine.

[She's just anxious. But... she's standing with you.]

[covertizer]

[ He's just... watching now, waiting to see what happens. He wants to hope, but there isn't much point in that here. ]

[foo_bar]

[honestly, he wants to scream at that announcement]

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

That’s.... new?

[Well that doesn’t sound good.]

[unhalting]

[There's a flicker of surprise as the explosion rocks the building but he quickly turns to look at Han.]

...

EXECUTION: Do it Yourself

[adminus]

[When Oswald Hale appears, it's with a pale face and shaking hands-- one of which holds something that looks similar to a gun but smaller. As he gets closer it's easily enough identified as a dart gun. He walks swiftly into the classroom and winces as he looks at the crowd of students before walking up to Han with long, purposeful strides. Yet his eyes never quite meet the professor's.]

I warned you about the price of your folly. Now... now they intend to leave it in your hands. Are you content?!

[He takes a deep breath and sighs. Jerkily he shoves his hand in Han's direction. They would make a killer out of him without a question. And every execution after. His jaw sets and he looks up into Han's eyes and his decision's already made. He knows the weight of death. He's no stranger to the guilt.

At the last second he turns his body; arm and weapon extended as he shoots twice-- a dart into both Mike Yagoobian and Alexander. The force is not great, and yet within mere seconds the two experience skin discoloration and start gripping tightly at the skin that's been pierced. With a series of short unpleasant gasps they both fall; poisoned.

Mike Yagoobian and Alexander are dead.]

[covertizer]

...

So, are you happy now?

[whatsmytalentagain]

...

......

[He takes the damaged hat off the evidence table and tosses it near Hale.]

You forgot one.

[He's gonna leave it at that before checking on Rebecca and Connor.]

[throwabookatit]

[ She jerks her head away as the two start experiencing the effects of the poison. ]

Criv-- [ Rebecca shakes her head, and- she gives Hale a horrible, growl of a look. ]

Is it still worth it, Oswald? Is the blood you've put on this path worth it?

[sendintheclown]

...I give it a 4/10.

[Some points for improvisation, but many lost on showmanship.]

[preconstruction]

Always content to play the villain.

[ CANT SAY HE MINDS if it means han is gonna be okay. sorry fam ]

[yourfuture]

Oh hey, look who's pretending he has feelings now! Good job, buddy! Keep going like this and you'll promoted to Frank fucking Miller in no time.

[ hi ozzy did u miss her ]

[buriedearth]

[ You know what. ]

How would like you like if it was you in our position right now?

I bet you wouldn't like it, would you?

[ososoi]

[ Osomatsu shrinks away from Alexander and Mike as they die, pulling his hood over his head. ]

[ Eventually, he turns his head towards Oswald, glaring daggers at him. ]

...I don't fucking get you.

[ You can practically feel the vitriol lacing his voice. ]

[unhalting]

[An execution like this without all of the embellishments and dramatics are more along the lines of what he's used to. That doesn't really change the fact that two more people are dead though, for such inane reasons too. But either way, enough people are questioning him about that. So.]

Hey. Where was that explosion?

[newhire]

Oswald Hale...

[Her fists are shaking and the color's risen back to her face; an angry pink.]

I swear it... I'm going to stop you! And when I do, I hope you're prepared to answer for everything you've done to these people.
