[Rolo does not appear at all satisfied with that answer. But he also doesn't expect to get anything better out of this guy, so he just hits Jerry with a flat stare for a few seconds before turning back to the door.
Still, he hates the thought of going into this for more of the same bullshit and coming out with no new information to show for it. So...he might as well try. The moment the door opens, he activates his Geass at a large range, hopefully enough to encompass the room beyond and whoever – or whatever – is inside it.
For ordinary people, at least, the perception of time freezes.]
[everything pauses. even Jerry freezes in place when Rolo uses his Geass.
the room is empty, but meticulously clean. there doesn't seem to be any dust... but there's no sign of any use, either. no worn out seats. no drink rings from cups. no papers... nothing.
it's only like that for a moment, and then the room goes dark. he may remember feeling judged, and voices from people he can't remember the faces of. he doesn't remember much, but he does remember the most important part:]
You, who have committed the crime of murder have come to stand before us to atone for your crime. To show commitment to rehabilitation, we have a request:
To atone for your lack of respect for human life, you must work with those who assisted you in the murder of Nikolai Gogol to explain to the rest of the Chosen why murder is unforgivable. How exactly you accomplish this task is up to you.
You have until July 13th to finish our task. If you complete it, you will be one step closer to returning home.
[when Rolo becomes aware again, he's outside of City Hall, without Jerry as an escort. the paper with his crime on it will be updated to reflect this task.]
[ooc: the longer that Rolo takes to complete this task, the more he'll be haunted of death in his dreams and via hallucinations in his waking life.
the thread or post of this action may be OOCly submitted here. failure to follow through on this task will result in a penalty for your character in the next event.]

[His tone is dry and he fixes Jerry with an unimpressed stare.]

That doesn't seem to stop anyone else in this place. But if you're ready... go on ahead.
