[the nearer they get to the airlock, the heavier her heart feels, even if she seems calm and collected. she knew almost as soon as the motive was announced that it would come to this, but the longer time went on... well. she had hoped that the motive would be called off somehow, like the time alice had taken away their nightmares.
she had asked him to patrol regardless, of course. this was too important to let pass. as such, she's speaking to him in casual tones, not wanting to let on that anything is strange or amiss.]
It's a relief that we haven't seen anything as of yet, wouldn't you say? Perhaps there will be no trial this week.
[ he hadn't thought anything especially off when adelina asked him to help patrol. valuable or otherwise she was still one person and if last week's case proved anything, two could easily set up a plot with plenty of trickery afoot.
two more people patrolling would ensure nothing funny happened. and though he struggled with his left leg, he was sure he could still protect himself fine with his gun out and... that. if it came down to it. ]
I doubt Alice would be so generous as to give us a break. Someone will go for the motive sooner or later. [ there's a slight limp as he stops for a moment. ] I can't believe how they still buy into her damned game even after all that's happened.
[ he's right behind Adelina as they walk in, and he'll walk ahead to go check the suits. all seem to be present and nothing seems to be off, so. ]
... Good, nothing seems to be amiss. [ he glances over to the sealed door, shotgun still in both hands. ] You know, I'd hate to see what kind of hell would be raised if someone actually got that thing open.
[ minako has spent most of the evening in her room, but it's only now that she's emerged to put her pathetic excuse of a "plan" into motion. there really isn't much to be said about what she wants to do - whoever she finds first and is vulnerable will have messiah be the last thing they see.
she hears people talking as they pass by and decides to follow them, but it isn't until she reaches the airlock that she realizes who thery are - adelina, who was a valued player... and machias. of all people, it had to be someone that trusted her. that definitely has to be karma.
oh well.
she lingers for a moment, hanging back until the both of them are in the airlock. when they are, she takes a deep breath and silently steps in, one hand ready to remove her evoker from the holster on her hip. ]
[she's tense enough that she's alert of everything, aware of even the slightest movement. even though minako is silent, adelina sees her come in out of the corner of her eye and takes a step back, hand moving to the hilt of her sword as she calls out.]

[a sigh. as they come to the airlock, she opens the door.]
We should make sure nothing is amiss here. Last week one of the suits was taken, after all.
[heart pounding, she comes into the room, making sure the door stays open so he can enter.]
