suitedreams | WEEK SIX: TRIAL

W̴͍̎E̴̝̊E̸͚͝K̸͕̿ SIX: TRIAL

Rise and shine; you know how Saturdays go. Even if you'd rather sleep in, you'll find yourself waking up and getting out of bed. Once you're out of your room, a door appears down the hallway, compelling you to walk towards it. Upon entering, you'll discover a room that's familiar if you've gone exploring this week or possibly from even before then:

MAIN MEETING HALL (VILLAGE)
Should anyone venture inside, they'll find a number of long benches set up against the walls. At the head of the building are two chairs, a sun and a moon carved into the back of each. The area in the center is wide open, allowing plenty of space to move around and while decor is lacking, hanging from the walls are several blank scrolls. There's also a large (blank) scroll above the two chairs in the back.

There are a few tables in here behind room dividers. One is labeled 'Evidence' while the rest are covered in white sheets. Elsewhere in the room is a table with pencils and slips of paper for voting.

✦✧☪✧✦

Welcome to your seventh trial! Over the course of the next nine hours, characters will have the opportunity to discuss, investigate and theorize about the murders. Characters will have time to examine the body of the victim and explore relevant locations.

There will be a mod-tag break between 4pm EST to 5pm EST. While the trial may continue and players can tag each other, mod-led threads such as questions and investigations will be on hold.

Finally, we have a voting page for characters to vote on the culprit! Please be sure that your vote is in by the time trial finishes 9pm EST. Voting is mandatory in this game.

Good luck!

Um... someone took the vase of dried flowers I had in my room? And kind of straightened up a little, I guess... and did the mint thing.

[Estelle's been kind of out of it but]

... Oh! Something similar happened to me, actually...

There was a book missing. It's not really important, but I was kind of using it...

[She pouts a little. Please give it back.]

Really? It wasn't the flower book, was it?

No, it was a really strange one that I had from the beginning. The "Book of Morbmon"...?

I was using it to make pressed flowers.

[Looks like 'hm' at all these blatant flower references.]

[ ?

he also looks curious]

Books and flowers, is it? We have ventured on from clothing it seems.

Maybe the books are just coincidence. I don't know. Flowers are definitely important.

[he seems slightly apprehensive just. given what happened last week to shinobu but,]

... well, it is something to keep in mind.

[STOP they are important to the collective]

Do we ever keep very much in mind when we're down to the last five minutes?

The last five minutes move too fast for an old man such as myself to keep up...

I got stabbed once, didn't I?

[LIKE A FAR OFF MEMORY]

[DON'T JUST FORGET THAT IT ONLY HAPPENED LIKE A MONTH AGO]

Yeah, let's try to make sure that doesn't happen again?

[

hehe]

Are you worried after me?

You and Cloud Strife do possess similarity....

[kawaii.....]

Why am I being dragged into this.

Because I find you both very kind...

[doting]

[ no!!!!!! ]

Don't.

[NO]

What? No.

I'm just saying don't be stupid. As much as I love a good deserved stabbing, the only stabbing that should be happening is tomorrow after we figured out who did either of these.

Hmm.... Yes, I see the logic in your words.

[

he's not disappointed]

[is he]

I really shouldn't be surprised a sword wants to stab.

This ... feels like a lot to read into [lmao book joke] when the items have been underwear and shoes in the past, and those didn't mean anything in the end.

[Shrugs with both hands in a not really rude, just general "think whatever you want" way.]

[ i wish my icon with the keyword "gonna settle in with the book of mormon" had an appropriate expression here so i could use it but alas ]

Morb...?

[ ...well, whatever, that's probably not relevant. ]

Huh... did you have any flowers in it at the time? [ ... ] H-how does that work, anyway? That probably would have been a better idea for mine than just leaving them in a vase...

...Er, we can talk about that part later.

[ he tries. oh my god does he try. ]

[ what!!!!!!!! ]

Yes, a few! I thought it would be kind of sad to just let them wither away.

I can show you how I did it later!

[ hm, he really does wonder if there's anything to them stealing flowers now, but ]

Yeah, I'd like that! Thanks!
