WEEK SIX: TRIAL

[guestservices]

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!

[STOP they are important to the collective]

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

[unsaid]

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]

[unrecked]

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

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

[unsaid]

[


hehe]

Are you worried after me?

You and Cloud Strife do possess similarity....

[kawaii.....]

[skyagain]

Why am I being dragged into this.

[unsaid]

Because I find you both very kind...

[doting]

[skyagain]

[ no!!!!!! ]

Don't.

[unsaid]

Is there a reason why not?

[skyagain]

Don't we have murders to solve?

[ he's not nice!! don't spread lies!!!! ]

[unrecked]

[snickering and escaping your grandpa now]

[skyagain]

[ GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE TODD ]

[unsaid]

Indeed, indeed.

[he'll let cloud be free. this is jiji's kindness]

I would like to venture to the dojo next, if possible. I find it very odd... to have both the body discovered there, and an anomaly of investigation also within the same area.

And yet to know that Marie Amabuki began with us in McBucks...

[skyagain]

You think both murders ended up there somehow? Or maybe it was to emphasize what happened to her. If she was frozen in place like in that dream...

[unsaid]

Mm... Perhaps so.

[when they find out she was cut up like in the dream maybe]

Marie Amabuki did possess her gun and knowledge of how to use it. Perhaps they wished to freeze her before she could fight back...?

[unrecked]

[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.

[unsaid]

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

[


he's not disappointed]

[unrecked]

[is he]

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

[unsaid]

[the thing he is not disappointed about is jason being worried about him

because actually,]

Oh, I do not mind if it is time for me to work, but I am not as partial to sparring as my comrades.

I do prefer a cup of tea on the engawa....

[OLD]

[unrecked]

Why am I stuck in the timeline where fate is really ugly enough to make you look so young when you're actually this old of a man?

[this is an outrage]

[unsaid]

[ ? ]

Thank you?

[WAS IT A COMPLIMENT?]

[unrecked]

[STOP]

Don't just say thanks.

[unsaid]

What was I meant to say?

[preowned]

It's a crime against the universe, isn't it?

[unrecked]

Your sword body machine or whatever is broken.

[preowned]

That is Aruji.
