WEEK TWO: TRIAL

[retellers]

WEEK TWO: TRIAL (35 remain) Rise and shine, gremlins. Hopefully you found it in you to make and eat breakfast, despite yesterday's news. At 11am, everyone will receive a message on their PHS, simply stating: This is your reminder to be at the Emporium by 12 PM. Shortly before 12pm, every participant will feel compelled to move towards the Emporium, if they aren't already there. No exceptions! Though they will have to navigate around shelves and merchandise and the like, everyone will fit neatly inside the room. Once all the participants are present and the clock strikes twelve, the doors lock behind them. Three of the Leaders are there with them: Wolf, Rabbit, and Fox. Fox speaks. "... Third time isn't the charm, as it turns out. You have nine hours. We'll help with what we can, as before." ༶•┈┈⛧┈｡o°✥✣ 　　 ✣✥°o｡┈⛧┈┈•༶ Hello, everyone, and welcome to the third trial! For the next nine hours, the characters are expected to discuss among themselves, ask questions, examine the bodies of the victims, look over the evidence found yesterday, and revisit locations as needed in order to find the culprit(s). There'll be a one hour break from 5-6pm EST, where no mod tags will occur. Before the trial is over, please remember to place your character's vote over on the voting page. Voting will close at 9pm EST/6pm PST, and will serve as our activity check for the week, so please be sure you get your vote in before it ends unless you have contacted us previously. If you have any questions at any time, please let us know by pinging us on Discord!

[ she's going to check under the tables and in the kitchen to cover their bases! we know the knives are missing, but is everything else in place? no blood or evidence with the murderer's name sewn on the tag? ]

[reconnective]

[likewise if there's other furniture in the lodging he'll check there, but if not he'll leave!

and he'll wander to the other building where the jail area is, once again checking floor and ceiling and the different doors. he will start to look in the cells and also check the other rooms. are the doors still locked? and for the rooms that are open, is there anything that might look out of place or stashed in there given they were initially ransacked?]

[retellers]

[ Pikachu emerges from the dead to congratulate Mob on his level up in investigating. No, Mob looks carefully but still finds nothing.

Everything else is in place in the kitchen.

The doors are still locked in the jail. Nothing looks out of place. ]

[exercisms]

[He's going to check and the doors and windows and door handle to every single building. God. Is there anything in the courtyard except these four buildings?

If not, then he's going to go up the stairs (?) to the roof area. Is it just one set of stairs going up? Is there anything on the stairs?]

[infreefall]

[ well, fine, guess we're going upstairs now. assuming there's nothing on the stairs (or ochako just side-steps it i guess), is there anything odd about the walking area at first glance?

...after the other reports she will also go check the cannons. if they're clear on the outside, is there anything inside? ]

[reconnective]

[THIS STUPID FORT.

he follows the others upstairs after ensuring there's nothing else in the jail or in the courtyard itself. since mob has the stairs and ochako has the cannons, sora will go and check the contraption used for hanging people. the noose is still missing, right? is there anything off about the device itself or around the area of it?]

[retellers]

[ This isn't Francy so I don't know what else is in the fort besides what it says in the Locations page but anyway Mob finds nothing.

Nothing odd about the walking area at a glance! Inside a cannon, Ochako finds a corpse by which I mean she also finds nothing.

The noose is still missing, and there is nothing off about the device or the area around it. ]

[exercisms]

[The canons was my only idea! I hate this! I hate this fort!

Mob is fine though he's just walking along having a nice time. There's nothing on the whole ass walking area? What about the roof? Is there a corpse on the roof?]

[infreefall]

[ the cannons were also my only idea! what is this invest even for!

uuuuuuuuugh what if she like. peers over the walls. nothing was pitched over the walls, right? ]

[reconnective]

[...well. he'll go the opposite direction of mob to walk around the fort's walking area, checking over the edges and along the path as he goes. he's taking the route that will take him past the howling rose and toward the swamp, though he looks over at the rose to see if he can spot anything unusual in the distance.

walks are nice. forts are not. nothing over the edges like blood or claw marks as someone clung on for dear life?]

[retellers]

[ "what is this invest even for" you all asked for it

Mob: no.

Ochako: no.

Sora: no. ]

[exercisms]

[Well. He's just going to get distracted, and start looking out at the ocean instead. Is that a seagull flying by? Wow. So nice.

Is the seagull carrying a knife or anything?]

[infreefall]

[ i hate this. this is why we're going to scapegoat someone else today. ]

Maybe there really isn't anything here... Should we just go back?

[reconnective]

[there's a sigh.]

Probably. If somebody else has another idea, they can go look later. We did our best.

[retellers]

[ It's just a nice and normal seagull, don't be mean.

Anyway. ]

[exercisms]

[Nod.]

Let's go back.
