[after causing a fucking scene like mineos are wont to do -
it's mostly just to get them out of the public eye?! sorry for your whiplash and manhandling takeru, but mineo is just going to at least bring them to a totally different room without anyone in it before putting him down and - he looks worried? DESPITE HIS STUPID MANHANDLING he seems to only now realize that he should've checked takeru for injuries first, which he's doing now]
You're here too? Are you okay?

[i'm going to be honest - after meeting with the avatars, mineo is just going to be

pacing
he's walking all throughout the available rooms, but he's not really sticking to one spot. it's sort of like he's looking for a way out, the same way he tries to take a walk and leave the office when he gets agitated. so he's probably passing by the same room that takeru's in for the 7th time]

[assuming that takeru has some reason to come to the simulation room -
he'll actually find himself at a beach. mineo's already tossed off his shoes into the fake sand, but otherwise he's just chilling out and doing his slothly thing of staring off into where there's definitely a sunset.
he glances over his shoulder and offers a grin when he notices who it is, despite their argument]
Yo! Think if I toss you into the virtual sea you'll blend in with the seaweed?
[he is so rude to takeru only]

[i forgot we don't even have clocks so it works out better bc mineo has no idea what time it is as he's headed for takeru's room. he's knocking on the door and whenever takeru does open the door mineo has his arms full
of these assorted snackies.]
Takeru, help me eat these.
[just
yea.]

[he doesn't want to.
honestly as soon as they woke up, he probably checked takeru over for injuries first and then just - bolted. before his brain could comprehend much more than that. because something felt wrong and now someone's dead, supposedly - and they have no reason to lie about that, but he still wanted to check. and he'd only met tamaki once, but he hasn't seen the other man the entire time he's been running around and.
he runs to the kitchen just in case takeru actually needs him for something]
... I can't find him.
[just to confirm
someone really might be dead]

[well
a bitch just absolutely nearly got into a scuffle at the end of the trial and then got told that they were all wrong anyway. but. but he knows that he contributed, and there's someone else -
so he wanders to find takeru before he just disappears into existential dread.
he's got two cupcakes and just holds the second one out]
.... hey.

[where is this. is he in his room or the med bay. either way mineo's going to let takeru go free just because of the giant mess of Everybody Else
but he will be going to find him afterward]
So what are your injuries?
[he decided against asking in public for takeru's privacy but also. hello????]

[takeru is
admittedly the one person that mineo will be actively seeking out - or rather, he doesn't even give him much room because as soon as trial's done he's gonna follow after him]
.... is water okay?
[if he's not hungry, he should at least have something to drink]

[so he realizes, however vaguely, what's going on. and he knows that he needs to find one person before everything goes to hell. which is why wherever takeru is, mineo is headed there, looking stressed and worried and almost desperate—]
Takeru, I need to tell you—
Takeru, I need to tell you—
[ Your heart is heavy, and your footsteps carry you before your mind realizes where you’ve wound up. (STOP at 11:48).
“…. Hm? This is….” The police station – your old familiar workplace. How long ago has it been now, since you used to walk past those doors everyday and report for work? And how much longer has it been since you could do so with pride? “…. Haha. I’ve always avoided this place, so how did I end up here…?”
A girl’s face flashes through your mind – along with her last words to you: W-Wait. What do you… Enomoto, listen to me…! But you didn’t give her a chance. You didn’t let her finish. You walked out of the apartment and that’s what led you here – alone, like always.
“Hoshino’s gonna give me an earful. Nothing good can come from working with her. …. The justice she wants to protect, huh…. Did I used to have that much passion?”
Your thoughts are interrupted with the sound of footsteps approaching quickly, and before you can hope to respond—
“Who’s there?!”
Blunt force to the back of your head before you can meet your assailant. Your ears ring. You hit the ground and everything’s dark.
. . .
When you wake up, all you can smell is blood. All you can taste is blood. All you can feel is the pain screeching from everywhere. Your arms and legs, bound. Distantly, there’s the understanding that you’re sitting, but you’ve been blindfolded and gagged. The cloth in your mouth holds nothing but the bitter taste of iron.
“Awake?”
A distant, garbled voice speaks. It’s hard to place it and yet there’s pain lacing the words when the person speaks again: “Why didn’t she go after you? Why has everyone abandoned you?”
The question is punctuated with a gunshot, followed by another and another, and you realize the next sound is your own muffled scream behind the gag as new pain blossoms in your chest as if to compete against the rest. The bullets tear past your skin and into your body, unforgiving. Will you bleed out first or will you be put out of your misery?
“Enomoto Mineo.” The voice speaks again, and this time it is not sympathetic. “Your rash and thoughtless behavior psychologically cornered someone you admired.”
A pit sinks in your stomach, and you realize that the last shot did not pierce your heart because the words were always meant to be what broke your spirit. Whether by surprise or something else you can’t name even now, you stop struggling.
You realize what this is. Judgment is coming.
“That man then wrongfully arrested people in a rush for glory, ruining the lives of many people.”
You hear the slide of metal – you know the gun has been reloaded. Even though you cannot see, you know it is pointed at you once again.
“For your inability to pursue the truth, and your cowardice that has stolen the light from others – you have been judged as evil. This is our justice.”
Bang!
Everything goes black. ]

[watch me put this between pcs in case something changes but]
Still chatting but
No but they went to a place White-kun's from
What the fuck?
Did they say they went to Shinjuku too?
Btw before I forget and texting stops White-kun went to the jail on Monday too
And the vision he got was different from ours
Still hopeless but he got in a car and drove into a burning pit
Double what the fuck?

[well wherever he is he's currently trying to get cactus needles out of his hand. considering he punched fukuda with that hand and the other also has cactus needles it's a process]
.... meant everything I said in trial. Even if we're all assorted assholes back home, I don't think we should get to just pin anyone's crimes here on someone innocent and convenient.
[a beat]
But if I had to fucking go another week thinking about how Fukuda-san kidnapped someone, strapped them to a table, and threatened to drill a hole in their head I probably would've said something about him anyway.

i genuinely hate this because mineo has also been accosted, meaning that his hair's actually down and brushed, he's not even wearing his stupid eyepatch and he has eyeliner tastefully on both eyes. is he in a suit i don't know my thread didn't get that far but]
.... did Leclerc-san and Sheila-san get to you too....?
[he wants to also pet the puppy so he's gonna hang out with takeru]

[fairly early tuesday which is weird because normally mineo sleeps in a la sloth:]
have you seen my coat?
[it's
it's obvious he left it with takeru
but also it's just easier to phrase it like this so mineo can know whether to run back to the library to get it or if takeru actually took it with him]
