the mastermind meme

[monomods]

 

You asked for it, we're finally giving it to you! Say hello to the mastermind meme!

What does this mean exactly? It means your character is the one responsible for everything! They've been controlling Monobear from the shadows (or maybe they have an assistant to help them, possibly even one of your classmates!), they've been putting forth the motives, running the trials, all of it! And now they've finally chosen to reveal themselves and their true motives.

What are their motives? Why do they want to spread despair? Are they somehow connected to the late Junko Enoshima? And most importantly what is their snazzy Monobear-themed look like? You decide!

Threading reactions is highly encouraged and feel free to AU things up to mix up our current survivor pool as much as you'd like.

[Lysandre is a bit unfamiliar with what's going on, simply because this...well. There are obviously law enforcement agencies and courtrooms and what have you, but he's certainly never been in one - there's been no need, his business practices are legitimate and what isn't is kept well out of the public eye.

However, he has a very definite idea that this is not how this is supposed to be going at all; he isn't going to waste time with formalities because honestly, he isn't even sure how to address the most glaring part of it.

Juniper, of all people.

So he's just going to leave the Donphan in the room alone for now, and try to focus on what's sure to be a rather...interesting interpretation of justice here, blessed Arceus be with him.]

...Not without hearing the charges first.

The creation of a weapon of mass destruction.

[She says it flatly as if she doesn't care, which she doesn't. The only thing that she cares about here is justice; every guilty party would be punished, and the court system would be restored to its pristine glory. There would be no more lies, no swindlers, no bribes; those that are guilty would not be found innocent. They would be executed for their crimes, and the world would gradually become a better place just like Juniper wished so much.]

A scheme to annihilate those deemed unfit to be in your ideal "perfect" world.

Not guilty.

[His words are prompt, immediate; almost too fast.]

I wasn't aware that we could be held under penalty of law for our thoughts alone, ma chérie - which, from the sound of it, is all that second charge amounts to.

As for the weapon, I had no hand in creating it.

[suncrushes]

If it only were a thought alone, Mr. Kokinos. I do believe you created an entire association dedicated to this "thought" of yours.

Though you may not have created this weapon yourself, you certainly planned for it to be created. The one who had actually built it was nothing more than your accomplice.

...My ancestor, actually. Three thousand years ago.

Surely we're not visiting down the sins of the fathers?

[...sorry was there more to that

his selective hearing is clearly acting up]

[suncrushes]

I have no intention to do anything of the sort. The only sins that I am concerned about are yours, Mr. Kokinos.
