THE MASTERMIND AU MEME
THE MASTERMIND AU
AMBIDEX EDITION
With Round 3 now over, it's about time we had the mastermind meme!
To those who aren't familiar, this is essentially an AU where your character is the one responsible for Round 3's Mutual Killing Game, and all of the carnage that came with it, from the kidnapping to the motives to the trials to the executions! And now, they have chosen to reveal themselves before the remaining members of their class at the final trial!
As such, you are free to play around with this as much as you would like; did your character make a contract with Kyuubey, or did your character put everyone in the Killing Game for a different reason? What is your character's motivation for bringing despair? What do they intend to get out of this seemingly senseless killing? And what does the rest of the class have to do to stop the madness and go home?
There's probably going to be quite a bit of AUing from your character's original canon happening here to make them into the best harbingers of despair they can be, so feel free to go as nuts with it as you want to! And, of course, feel free to tag others with your character's reaction to their classmate's big reveal; it doesn't matter whether or not your character made it to endgame, have fun and mix up the survivor pool as much as you'd like!
Oh, and feel free to describe your character's sweet new Monobear-themed duds, too!!

Ah.
[He stands up and crosses his arms.]
I'm disappointed you all chose that, but it can't be helped. [A herd of Monobears walk onstage towards Duster.] Then...I have to be executed, like I promised.
[All the light in his eyes go out. He thought he could spend time with Harvey and the others again. He wanted to do this right for once. But he failed, and he has to accept defeat.]
no subject
Harvey tenses as the Monobears enter. This is the vote he wanted, but he doesn't want this.]
Is there...anything we can do? [It seems silly to ask, but he has to say something.]
no subject
[The Monobears form a semicircle behind Duster and stand still.]
I shouldn't be surprised. Without the Egg of Light, taking away your sad memories will be difficult. But...it's a shame. We were hoping you would join us.
[He turns his head to look at each student individually, ending with Harvey. The Monobears make their move and tug on his jacket.]
Time for me to go.

Harvey forces himself to meet Duster's gaze, jaw gritting too tight as he tries to suppress tears. He failed him. It's not clear what he could have done, aside from sacrificing everybody on the altar of the Tacky Pig King, but it feels like a failure.
He can't rest until he fixes this.]
See ya later, kid.

Duster wordlessly follows them off-stage.
The stage grows dark, as it did for every execution. When the lights return, the same sets from the first one decorate the stage. Duster takes the place of the first culprit, and the same bloody spectacle plays out, but less extreme so that Duster survives.
Then the stage is replaced with the second execution's props. Duster goes through the same punishment. And the next. And the final one.
He opens his tired eyes. His vision is pink with blood, but he can make out eight vague shapes in the distance. If he squints, he can make out the form of-
CRUNCH
Duster Woodya, Super High School Level Thief, Mastermind, is dead.]

The others are still here. He may not be best friends with all of 'em, but they're a team now. He trusts they're all on the same page regarding the guy behind all this.]
C'mon, everyone. We got a pig to kill.
