THE ADJUDICATOR
WEEK 1
His name is "Juri" but that's stupid and I'm not calling him by name since he won't call us by our names. The Adjudicator's got a few people who really like him because of his appearance, but he's difficult as hell to talk to.

He wouldn't tell me what was stopping my alchemy from working, but he said he didn't do anything to me. The tattoo on my hand, my hair, the scar on my back... All of that seems to be stuff he didn't do. He also said the information on our profiles is right, but that's not possible... is it?

I don't believe what he's said, but I don't have any way to prove he's lying either. It's infuriating. This game is fucked up too, but we don't have much of a choice but to follow his damn rules for now.

Killing him is out of the question. He can rip someone's soul out just by touching them. I don't know what the fuck to do about him. For now I guess we'll just have to wait it out. Maybe rescue will come.

(I don't think it will.)

WEEK 2
He offered a bonus to anyone who killed and Rideaux took him up on it. I'm still pissed at the Adjudicator, but that was Rideaux's fault for going through with it. I don't regret voting for him. I'm doing what I can to stay alive.

But the Adjudicator will pay. He's not human - he doesn't bleed - but there has to be some way to put a stop to this.

WEEK 3
This time he's offering us a chance to go back and change something in the our pasts. I still don't know if he has the power to do that. I wouldn't want to kill anyone anyway, even if it did sound like a good idea.

...But if that file Angel got out of the machine is right... then I'm not a State Alchemist anymore and I have no idea what happened. Maybe it would be best if I just never joined the military in the first place.

Not that I'm considering acting on this stupid incentive, of course.

He killed Chitoge today because she tried to poison him. I don't blame him for it. I want to be mad at him or upset about Chitoge's death... but I don't feel anything. The Adjudicator was in the right this time.

I talked to him the night after Chitoge tried to kill him and he seemed perfectly fine. But more importantly, he actually gave me answers, specifically about the file (which he believes is true, but doesn't seem to know for certain) and our missing memories. Apparently they are memories and eventually they'll all make sense. He didn't seem surprised that I was missing seven years either, so he probably knows a good deal about us. More than the profiles let on, maybe...? I don't know. I still don't think I can trust him, but it felt kind of nice to have that confirmed. I guess I just need something to make sense for once.

WEEK 4
AZ wanted to die, so he got the Adjudicator in on it. At least we didn't have to have a trial to figure it out.

He seemed really damn interested in the trial and didn't plan on stopping it even though Fern was bleeding out. What a sick fuck.

WEEK 5
He revived Yang just so he could kill her again. I didn't think he could like someone here, but I guess Mozu was nice to him or something. It was still fucked up.

WEEK 6
Chitoge somehow came back to life, so he killed her again. I actually agree with him on that, how fucked up is that? I'm not sure I should be agreeing with anything he says or does, but...

WEEK 7
Threatening to expose our secrets clearly isn't going to work on everyone. But as long as it works on one person...

I can't take that risk. I'm not going to die here.
