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!

Um... were they typical walking footprints...?

[She tilts her head a little.]

If so, I do not think they could be Miss Dorothy's. Her leg is still broken, after all. She wouldn't be able to walk normally.

[horologia]

... perhaps someone can go back and check the gait, if no one remembers?

[lecarre]

[Ange just nods quietly, looking Stressed.]

That is a good idea, if nobody remembers. I just... I do not want us to get this wrong... and there is still so much we do not understand about these murders.

[horologia]

[ ... please do not look so Stressed, Ange. like. it's understandable, but also. :( she has never been good at the reassuring thing. ]

It'll be okay. We'll just have to trust in the answer we find.

[lecarre]

...Yes, you are right.

[That's all they can do, isn't it? She offers her a tremulous smile.]

Thank you... you really are just as kind as you've always been.

[horologia]

I...

[ 'kind' is not something she's called very often, as far as she can remember? not at all, actually. the more she tries to look back, actually--

hm. maybe not. ]

... Thank you, but I really don't think I merit such a description...

[misstrust]

[ She waves her crutch at Ange. Thanks, kiddo. ]

[lecarre]

[small, sad smile at Dorothy.]

[sacredchants]

I wasn't there so I'm not sure. It would have to be whoever went to the beach.

[supremity]

Ruby was the one that stayed on the sand, but I'd be willing to go back and double check it if someone wants to head out there again.

[ More for Ange than Dorothy, because he's mad at Dorothy, which is petty but whaddya gonna do. ]

[misstrust]

[ well fuck you too, sir ]

[supremity]

[ it's not your fault but he's going to be mad about it anyways ]

[misstrust]

[ I mean that's valid ]

[sacredchants]

[ looks at the cookie talk. ]

It might be worthwhile pending on further results that we find.

[supremity]

[ A nod, and once he passes Usagi off to someone for holding he'll head off. ]

[lecarre]

[offers him a tremulous smile. He's trying and she appreciates that very much!!]

Thank you... I appreciate it. I hope it helps us find the truth.

[supremity]

I do as well. Keep an eye on things in the meantime, Ange.

[ He sets a hand on top of her head in passing - because he's going to get to the bottom of this, for all of them. ]
