week two ♡ sunday ♡ jinah
[he definitely needed time to clear his head—tensions were high all around during the trial. it's no surprised that people were getting snappy at the end of the night, himself included.
but akira has a very thick sense of justice, and a thicker sense for protecting people in the biggest ways he can. so he got heated hearing an adult completely, selfishly vote with their conscience like there was a moral high ground to really stand on in a game of life and death.
he's not the sort of person to let things sit, though.
grudges and bad blood in a game of trust sounds awful, and bellamy somehow talked jinah from the ledge to make the wiser choice. maybe there's ground to talk and try to work things out? it's... frustrating.
really frustrating, since the trust is compromised—akira's faith in any adult is tenuous at best and this definitely shook his in her. but he has to do what he can. so before the execution, he'll still make an effort to find her, and quietly—and calmly, much more so than during the trial:]
Do you have a few minutes?

[she could have easily lied to appease them and then wrote in a different vote, or not have been convinced by him. he doesn't necessarily agree with her reasons—likely even if she voted randomly, it wouldn't have changed the outcome.
it's just that the line of thinking is a dangerous one, and a habit that should be broken before one vote really could be life or death for someone undeserving.]
More than anything, we need to not give up on trying to find the people actually responsible for killing.
[but...] Otherwise, we need to try and make an agreement as a group. There's no easy way out of this—I hate it, but coming to a consensus on how to best vote is all we can do.
It's never going to be fair. It's never going to feel good—but I'm not sure the punishment risks are worth the reward.
[though he notes:] I'm fighting against my own beliefs in this game for sake of protecting my partner.
[in case there was any doubt that he feels strongly about what he's doing, it breaches his moral fiber in a really sickening way.]
