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!

[His eyes meet hers.]

What did you use to remove a participant this week?

[misstrust]

[ And to that, finally, wearily-- ]

A rollercoaster. [ And then, firmly. ]

For what it's worth, I would never kill a child.

[dianxias]

[ there's a sharp gasp from right next to her. ]

[misstrust]

[ She's not looking at him. Sorry.

:( ]

[soulus]

[He goes quiet. The rest can handle this now.]

[misstrust]

[ No, she's not done. ]

All of the evidence that pointed to me had nothing to do with me, however. I have no reason to lie about that.

[evocationary]

[ oh ]

-- What, I was kidding about the mach fuck.

[arkitect]

...mayhap it is best for you not to kid, then.

[lup your psychic joke, wow.]

[arcsplainist]

[ ......... Oh.

He stares at her, stunned. ]

[sacredchants]

[ just.

hangs out near him. don't forget what they talked about on monday, please. ]

[misstrust]

[ Dorothy looks at him for a moment... then shakes her head and says nothing, glancing away. ]

[papasha]

[He offers Dorothy a somewhat sad look.]

[lecarre]

[There's a long, long pause. Ange stares at Dorothy for a long moment, almost blankly... and then finally blinks, and her expression seems to shatter.]

... What?

... Wait, I--I must have misheard...

It was... a "no" that you said, Miss Dorothy. Wasn't it...?

[reconnective]

[well...he has no words, but he looks a little worried now.]

[uhhhmagic]

Literally how
You can answer that later
But holy shit what?

[cuedoves]

[ ... ]

Do you know anything about the other two deaths?

[moondumplings]

[ oh. ]

[riegan]

(He looks surprised! And then sad because dang... these cookies, right?)

[stillnot]

[ well. ]

[discernments]

Oh, Dorothy.

[ Jeanne sounds so sad. ]

[axecessory]

[ ...well, she has to give her a respectful look for that. she stays quiet, otherwise. ]

[chanteuser]

[ oh. ]

...

[ she just rubs a hand over her face and sighs. ]

[sacredchants]

[ she looks somewhere being between angry and devastated? mostly angry though. ]

[horologia]

... not many would.

And you've never shown yourself to be that type of person, I think.

[canned]

It sounds like you and Chiron talked about it, did he...did he want to go on the roller coaster?
