WEEK 2; TRIAL
TRIAL
Whether you investigated or decided to take it easy, before you know it the speakers crackle to life instructing you to head to the beach. This is a demand not a request, and anyone who doesn't comply will find themselves forcibly moved there by the kitty bots—even if it takes a whole swarm of them.
Once you get there, you'll see that this isn't quite a beach party, instead a gigantic sandbar dotted with some type of constructs has risen out of the sea and tides. The path to the sandbar is solid enough even if it is relatively narrow, and once you arrive you'll find that you're far out in the ocean, way farther than it's comfortable to swim.
And once everyone is gathered, the pathway recedes back into the sea leaving you trapped here, all twenty-eight of you. At least there's ample seating, a kind of amphitheater made of sand with space in the middle for grandstanding or dramatic revelations. Though the area is mostly open, there are lone pieces of sand wall around the edges, maybe to dissuade you from tossing someone into the ocean without stopping you entirely. Thankfully, a lone outhouse rests again one of the walls just in case you need to use the bathroom, though it's not much in the way of actual privacy.
Settle in, get comfortable or just complain about all the sand you'll be tracking back, if you make it back that is. There's still another sacrifice to be chosen after all according to your administrators and—
Maybe you've noticed there's no palm trees or speakers here? It's just you, and the sand. For now. (( OOC: Welcome to your first trial! You'll have 7 hours (8PM EST/5PM PST) to find the killer and send them off their death, if you believe in justice at least. Since this is scapegoat style, finding the correct killer is not mandatory!
Please remember to vote before then unless you've spoken to a mod, as votes are our stand-in for AC. ))

[ As noted before, he has a long sleeve shirt on and pants. His attire is clean of any kind of residue, and he'll offer his boots as well, though it's more leggy out than actually taking them off.
They're clean. ]

and not even a minute later:

Because I like to keep all my clothes neat. Is that so odd?

no subject
Anyway, there's really no other answer besides his shoes are clean and they probably smell more like leather than anything else. ]
no subject
...I suppose not.
[ He looks over at Billy. ]
I do not sense that his shoes were overly-cleaned recently.

[No, Sonya doesn't have a choice. Does it look suspiciously clean or have anything on it?]
no subject
[ Yeah he is sir not handing over the harpoon. ]
no subject
And why is that, hm?
no subject
[ A beat. ]
Normally I have my sword, but that didn't make the trip with me.
no subject
Allow us to confirm that your harpoon was not involved and we will hand it right back.
no subject
And how do you intend to do that?

no subject
I won't let them do anything to you if that is your concern.

[To him:]
I shan't let them stab you in the back while you're unarmed if you divest, Sonya.
[There will be no mid-trials, in the specific five-minute section against this specific person, on her watch.]

[He very "personably" approaches Sonya, if personable meant ready to punch someone in the process.]
no subject
[ He'll be doing his best to like sidestep here and Billy will be able to tell he absolutely knows his way in melee combat. ]
no subject
He can tell you know what you are doing in a fight here.]
no subject
[Well, Billy's a melee combatant too, judging from how he pulls up his crowbar and lightly tosses it into a ready position.]
Y'got ten seconds to pick between the easy way or the hard way before I choose for ya.
