[pandatreasure]

DOOOOUUUBBLEEEEE EXEEEECUUUUUTIOOOOOOONNNN!!!!

[That is, indeed, Raquelle's voice coming over the loudspeakers all up and down the school, a cheerful sing-song of nothing but pure delight. She spends a good few moments cackling, thrilled as can be.]

Wow, wow, you really went hard on this one, didn't you guys?! I was at the edge of my seat! I didn't know what would happen next! Nyehehehehe! Are you proud? You should be, you should be! Ahh, this is the dream of any teacher, isn't it!

[hey raquelle shut the fuck up and tell us who's getting executed???]

Nyehehe, lucky, lucky us! ...Lucky me, Tycoon's still causing problems.

[she's doing this on purpose.

ANOTHER FEW SECONDS OF CACKLING]

Anyway! Here are the resuuuuuults!

[And as promised, the results of the vote appear on everyone's tablets, slowly fading into view on the screen:]

RESULTS:
Will: 1
Rin: 1
Goro: 1
Seto: 2
Hiyori: 4
Akira: 7

So tomorrow we'll be executing our lucky-lucky winner Akira, and also Ichigo, for breaking chillaxin' rule number four.

Have a good night, you ba—shit, right—Uh! Sleep tiiiiiight.

Nyehehehe!

[And the PA clicks off with no further explanation or ado.]

[takes it, though doesn't really get further than cradling the mug]

[he does make a grunt that can probably be interpreted as 'thanks', but that's about it]

[piertotumlocomotor]

I know this may not be the time to ask you something like this, but I want you to tell me what you plan to do from now on.

I imagine someone like you wouldn't be without some sort of plan, at least.

[He seems goal-oriented, maybe that'll help? Planning ahead?]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

.........None of my plans had these variables. I'm already out of scope of my highest-risk scenario. If I'd realized--

[he breaks off, staring more blankly into his tea]

[piertotumlocomotor]

'If I'd realized'

[Boy does she sympathize with those words, but she has to keep a determined stance]

The only people I hear such words from is from people who have given up already -- defeatist people. You haven't given up, have you?

[Better not to mention she had thought those same words not too long ago]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

...

[actually looks up at her, lost, like someone who doesn't really have an answer for that.]

[piertotumlocomotor]

Is this how Seto Kaiba would have wanted to ever see himself at any point?

[Clutching tea and looking at someone like a deer about to be run over?]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

...

[his shoulders go stiff. then he slowly rises, taking his tea

and hefts the mug and throws it into the wall to smash into a million billion pieces

then he turns to go, he guesses, like an adult]

[piertotumlocomotor]

[McGonagall doesn't flinch. Instead she closes her eyes calmly. She's not sure if this is a good reaction or not -- it's a bit of an improvement over looking lost, she guesses, but it's far from ideal]

...you still can be riled up. Looks like not everything is over for you.

[McGonagall stands up, somewhat satisfied]

Don't let those raccoons think they finally broke you like that teacup.

[It's not the best case scenario she imagined, but hey, if he's still able to get angry, then he's able to keep fighting, even if it's out of spite. That's a motivation as good as any]
