Trash Squad Day 11 - SECRETS

[chinhotta]

Are you ready for it?! It's the long awaited final event! This is your last chance to get close before your final dates and the final bonus event!

And, back by popular demand, it's the motive vi—wait, no, not that. Well, I guess you're motivated to build your relationships? That's better anyway.

...Anyway! Check your tablets! You will find you have a few interesting video files! They should be familiar to you! The catch is... if you don't share each one with a different person by nighttime today, they will all be shown to everyone here! We'll have a fun midnight viewing party!

This may seem a bit cruel, but... love is cruel sometimes. Take it as an opportunity to get a bit closer to the people you care about, or everyone will learn a bit more about you! It's win-win when you think about it that way!

[ On your tablets are a minimum of 3 video files! There is no maximum; it's however many you OOCly want to deal with. Each video contains some sort of secret your character has—'secret' loosely defined as anything they would be uncomfortable being thrown up on a big screen in the auditorium in front of everyone. The presentation can be as simple as lines of text with embarrassing facts (Alice wet the bed until she was in junior high!) or as involved as a dramatically edited montage of the murders they committed through their whole life. Your choice!

Each file should be shown to a different person to count as 'shared'. If there is anything they do not manage to, or choose not to, share with someone in particular, comment with a brief description of it over here. These will all be shared publicly in a post which goes up on Thursday before the date announcement post. ]

[lacrimose]

Uh... Thanks. You can have a hug any time you want.

[yeah, it's pretty weird]

So what did you want to show me?

Cw - suicide and unperson stuff, sorry you got the most complicated one tldr

[cluelesscavewoman]

[Diving hug- Except she has stop cause the tablet is in her pocket. And she doesn't look to happy about it. A few tapes and she presses play.

{It's a control room of sorts. But all of the people in uniform are going to Futayo for orders. Surprisingly for how she acts, she's really good at it. There is a reason she's in charge and a small note appears to mention that this is her countries only military force.

It pops up with a few other notes
Motonobu Matsudaira ordered the destruction of Mikawa intentionally via overloading the Ley Line reactors.
He had his servant, Tadakatsu Honda ensure that this was not prevented.
Tadakatsu ordered Futayo to leave.

Then a few more clips, showing that Futayo nearly went back knowing she'd be stuck in the blast area. Then it says that as Motonobu died in the blast, his daughter will have to commit suicide as punishment for Mikawa's destruction. It stops again to show the affects of stopping the execution, that it'd be declaring war on the whole world. From a country with a small military where the strongest fighter is a seventeen year old girl.

In the end Futayo's left to make the decision. It's not one she wants to make, and in the end she chooses to arrest the princess and hand her over. It seemed like a better choice. One definite death but they'd still have allies as opposed to the complete unknown...But the others don't care. They'd rather save the girl and go to war. And there's a harsh sound as a girl slaps Futayo.

If you are a samurai then it is your duty to serve your lord. You're pathetic for becoming the enemy of one you should be saving.

And Futayo falls to her knees, curling on the floor and pleading that the others forgive her. And from that point on Futayo gives up her role as captain, she serves the princess directly. Following orders to the letter. She's capable of thinking, but why bother when she'll just make another mistake? She misses her dad, she misses when everything was simple. Even if she can see wonderful things and fight interesting people.}

Futayo says nothing even after it's finished playing and just looks at the floor.]

[lacrimose]

[Akira watches, and for a long while, says nothing, holding the tablet. It explains a lot, but...]

Futayo... They shouldn't have treated you that way. You did what you thougt was right.

[He can't even imagine mindlessly following the orders of Ryo, or anyone else.]

[cluelesscavewoman]

No. They are right, this one's brain is not good. So it is better if they let someone else do the hard things like thinking.

[And it doesn't show in a world with magical translation. But her personal pronoun? 'this one that is foolish']

[lacrimose]

Futayo. [He puts his hands on her shoulders, looking into her eyes.] Everyone makes mistakes. I screw things up all the time. But I keep trying to learn and do what I think is the right thing, because I believe in it...

Everyone should figure out right and wrong for themselves, not have someone tell them what that is.

[cluelesscavewoman]

[Her eyes narrow, glancing at the hands.]

But that only upsets people when this one tries. Akira asked last time, then I made him cry. He said that Erika-dono was upset to, she said I betrayed her.

[her father died doing what he was told, she intended to do the same.]

[lacrimose]

[Frowns, dropping his hands back to his sides.] You made Kurusu cry? What happened?

[cluelesscavewoman]

They said that if no one died, something bad would happen to Masazumi. I asked Akira what to do, and he told me to do what I thought was best... So I challenged Maki-dono to a duel.

[lacrimose]

Did you win, or lose?

[cluelesscavewoman]

I won and told Akira I was going to vote for myself.

[lacrimose]

Maybe I just don't understand the rules of that game, but... why would you do that?

[cluelesscavewoman]

Because I had done something that was wrong and had to face my Judgement. I did not do it for a prize. I just did not wish to risk them following through with their threat.

[Jud and Judge are both words she used a lot. She had done what she needed to do, she had never intended to get away with it.]
