~ [i]Who Masterminded the Murder?[/i] ~[/center]

The events that unfolded since his last suggestion passed by with little sustained reaction from the Infinite. Too much was happening at once for him to really react, so he simply let himself take it all in, doing his best to keep his cool. All the people stripping, and the accusations and line of questioning, and the odd threat... If this was merely the first case, how incendiary were the subsequent ones set up to be?

With Lucas revealed, Shaun cursed both him and himself. He had overlooked such a glaring detail... One that would have saved everyone much more time. But beyond that, he cursed Lucas; his apathy, his malice, his attitude. It was sickening. How could people like that exist? People that would and do kill others for their own gain... He wanted to go home too. He didn't have parents, or siblings, but he had his uncle and his girlfriend. But... He would never [i]kill[/i] to see them again... 

Soon after, though, Davis dropped his bombshell. The force of it seemed to shake the very court around him. At the very least, it shook Shaun. This was another man who... Who killed people for what he wanted. Another blight on humanity. Another twisted being. He couldn't forgive any of them... If Mondatta truly did forgive Lucas for what he did, then he was an incredible man. That kind of compassion and understanding was beyond Shaun, as much as he hated to admit it...

He sat idly as the rollercoaster took them to the site of the execution, and watched vacantly as Lucas was promptly executed. Despair that begets despair... It was hard to believe that that could in any way have been anyone's goal, at any time. But the way Davis and Monokuma spoke made it sound like someone had once done something like this before, with their own goal an exponential, ceaseless loop of despair and death. 

With all the blights on the human race, like Lucas, and like Davis, it was hard for Shaun to even consider it human anymore. To spell humane one first had to spell human. But perhaps humanity was beyond saving, if all they boiled down to over and over again was actions that begot despair...
