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!

...Let's say he used his sword to stab a particular plush, then buried it in a bunch of other dolls so it wouldn't be found.

[ she sounds very sure that it's his sword. ]

Why would he stab a tiger doll?

No, Alphonse is correct that it could very well be a message. I simply would not know why he would send one to a particular team... and one that could be taken as threatening, at that.

To point to someone. Either a target, or his attacker, right?

Precisely!

Won knew a lot of people's teams.

[ clementine

gives a little tug on hilda's sleeve to whisper something to her! ]

[ ...she gives clem a very hard look and then whispers something back. ]

[ clem just crosses her arms and looks stern. ]

[ for once, she looks stern right back, but after a moment she just touches clem's arm in what she hopes is a reassuring gesture and goes back to the task at hand. ]

[ just looking at her ]

[ that's rude but okay ]

[ so is whispering in trial ]

[ sometimes girls whisper. don't stare, it's rude. ]

[ his gay is dead he's very rude today ]

[ lup comes over to stroke her fingers through his hair absently. ]

[ sighs and wanders in bc time is fake. ]

Tiger completed their requirements, didn't they? If he was splintering why would another one of that team be sent out?

[ was it just luck of the draw or something else?? ]

Only one Leader notices the splintering at a time, and they usually ask their own team. That's what I was told.

[ hmmm. ]

That's what I was told, too, but... [ that wasn't the point she was trying to make...?? she'll shake her head. ] All things considered, if it was a pointed statement as to the culprit to his murder and he was splintering, then we do have other people to focus on.

[ aka the non splintering deaths. ]

No one's killing for no reason, so I think we should just follow the evidence and see where it leads.

[ she gives him a look as though she has something else to say but just sighs. ]

Let's hope we're able to follow the evidence that we have to something this time instead of dancing around a point.

Mm... Like Zuko said, it's not that convenient, I think.

Nothing about anything here is convenient. I should stop looking for it.

[ also dropping it due to above reply to zuko. ]

Look, I uh - I want to find his killer. I do.

But if he was the one who was splintering... feels like maybe we should figure out the other murders first. You know? [ she looks like she hates this, but. ]

[ she looks at lup pensively for a long, still moment, then shrugs weakly. ]

Mm. Maybe you're right.

[ Alphinaud... genuinely looks confused for a moment. Then he shakes his head. ]

... I see. Mayhap so.
