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!

With what the guns have been subjected to, I also think the shield might be the best option at this point.

[canned]

Did you see the wounds, Yuuri? You don't have to look if you don't want to, of course, but based on the guns we do have, I wonder if they were even used at all...and I heard that during that week we had the gun shop lots of them disappeared.

[horologia]

Yes. [ after subjecting the mods to repeated gun injury trauma. ]

I'll see if I can get anyone's attention about it if I need to- [ since we seem to be very fixated on shield and cookie rn ]- but... the head wound that killed Uraraka-san was made by the pistol. The other intact gun was a revolver, as was the dismantled one, though they're of different makes.

I was able to match up the recovered bullets we found with them, too, so...

[ nothing for gunphin, though. ]

Xie Lian-san said the two intact guns recovered from the sandcastle were Uraraka-san's, correct?

[canned]

I think that's what he said, yeah. So the stray bullets we found matched Ochako's gun, but the wound didn't match those bullets or any guns we have? [a disappointed breathless sigh]

Mister Soo-Won had a gunshot wound on his leg, too, right?

[horologia]

No, that isn't... The wound matched one of the two intact guns. One was a revolver, the other was a pistol. Both of those were Uraraka-san's.

The bullets that Taa- Star-san? found match the disassembled revolver. The bullets that Alphinaud-san and -Xue Yu-san? match the other two guns. I'm afraid I don't exactly recall where everyone said they found the bullets.

[ though it's not that the bullets individually work for both of the other two they use different ammo, it's just that between the other two guns all the bullets found can be matched to a gun. does that make sense, idk. we have half an hour left. ]

[dianxias]

[ from over here: ] Call him San Lang! That's his name!

[horologia]

He told me that you're the only one who calls him that. Is it not a private nickname, then?

[dianxias]

Well, I am, but neither of us really have any other friends, so.




[ ouch. ]

[supremity]

I don't want anyone else calling me that but you.

[ From wherever he's not. Near Xie Lian. ]

Just call me Xue Yu, without the -san, it's a title.

[dianxias]

[ ....????? ]

...It's your name...

Chengzhu? Crimson Rain Sought Flower? Ghost King? The Red Calamity?


......Goodness, you really do have a lot of names, don't you, San Lang...

[supremity]

It's my name, but I don't... want anyone else calling me that but you.

[ gege you are so thicc in every way possible ]

I do have a lot of names, though, I'll give you that.

[horologia]

[ ok but no really what kinds of names are those. is that a literal kanji reading of his name? ]

[horologia]

Xue Yu... then.

[ nods in lost name solidarity. ]

[supremity]

[ a pat on the head, because solidarity in name loss amidst all this hullabaloo ]
