WEEK SIX: TRIAL

[retellers]

WEEK SIX: TRIAL (22 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: Please go to the Emporium at 12. 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. Wolf speaks. "Nine hours. You know what to do." ༶•┈┈⛧┈｡o°✥✣ 　　 ✣✥°o｡┈⛧┈┈•༶ Hello, everyone, and welcome to the seventh 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!

Maybe. Seems like it was a busy place, considering.

[Three body tables.]

[arcsplainist]

[ He is likewise grimacing at the mention of Ochako... :( ]

Aye, 'tis safe to assume she had made her way through the stalls that night. As did someone el—

[ he stops himself short, then: ]

Her dinosaur. I know not whether she had used it previously or not, but I wonder if she had put it to use while in the area. It certainly appeared as though something barreled through.

[uhhhmagic]

I don't think the Dinos work anymore - no more embiggening. So probably not that.

[axecessory]

[ she nods in agreement. ] Yeah, couldn't be the dinosaurs. But, um... I mean, couldn't some people have done that sort of damage themselves this week?

[ just saying. ]

[arcsplainist]

[ me forgetting dinosaurs had a time limit........... closes eyes ]

—Ah, that is correct. The damage done could not have been done by one person on their own... normally. But do we know in how many ways the items we own could change someone?

[axecessory]

[ pets anais ]

Does it have to be an item, necessarily?

[arcsplainist]

[ he's trying to think... and so am i. ]

What think you? I can imagine little else at our disposal which made it possible.

[axecessory]

Mm. Sorry, I'm not going to explain as much if you don't know.

[ she trusts he'll be able to figure it out if he has the right pieces. ]

[arcsplainist]

[ he frowns ]

Is this truly the time to be keeping information to yourself?

[axecessory]

Depends on the info!

[ anyway she walks away. time to go hang out with someone else. bye! ]

[arcsplainist]

[ fuckin' wow ]

[discernments]

... Alphinaud.

[ She sounds a little tired. He may recognize this tone. ]

If you cannot piece it together, come see me after.

[arcsplainist]

[ he does and i am crying. i am never not sleeping through another trial again.

A response does not come immediately. He thinks... some more. It would appear Jeanne's I'm Sick Of Your Shit, Alphinaud(tm) tone was hint enough, because a realization suddenly dawns on him. ]

... Oh.

[uhhhmagic]

Potentially.

[Adjusting his braid.]

'Course you'd have to know what everyone's thing is.
