WEEK 3; TRIAL

[killerwaves]

TRIAL

Like last week, the kitty bots herd everyone over to the sandbar once the time for investigation has concluded. At the least, this little piece of your personal hells has emerged unscathed in all the wreckage. Unlike last week, Overhaul and Shigaraki are already there waiting for you, the former looking about as grouchy as a mask can get and the latter looking pretty amused.

Off to the side in a booth of its own is the body as well as attendant kittybots; apparently it’s messy enough this time to require some clearance, but it’s still close enough for the admins to oversee.

This murder sure was something, even for your masterminds. Theorize and/or judge about who could have done such a thing and get a snack from your local kitty bots if you get hungry—the theme is italian today, with pizza, mozzarella sticks, stuffed meatballs and the like.

(( OOC: Welcome to your second 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. ))

Name names, it’s far more fun that way.

[He casts a look over to Beel.]

[stilllovesyou]

[She glares at him.]

Beel wouldn't eat a heart unless he'd run out of shelves and I don't appreciate you implying otherwise.

[plunges]

He was also at the spa last night, where Temenos brought a snack cart for Beelzebub so he wouldn't go on a rampage again. And he didn't.

[passetemps]

[ that seems like a valid enough counter. he nods. ]

So long as he had food options available to him like this, I have a very hard time believing he would choose to attack someone instead.

[plunges]

Yes. And, as demonstrated last week, Beelzebub did not attack anyone when he was hungry. He tore up the kitchen instead.

[ Which was inconvenient, but it wasn't murder! ]

[gluttoning]

[Just going quiet at that.]

[plunges]

[ Oh... ]

...I apologize.

[stilllovesyou]

Also, if it was Beel, he would eat the whole body and not just the heart!

[She's very enthusiastic about this defence. Beelzebub loves eating food!]

[skyworp]

I’m only following the logic from your suggestion. Who else, if not him?

[stilllovesyou]

Meat is edible for nearly everyone here. Anyone could devour a human heart.

[skyworp]

Yes. But who would?

[It is, based on everyone’s reactions, rather frowned upon.]

[stilllovesyou]

I don't know. I can't see here. I could tell you outside of the trial who would like human heart but inside I'm completely blind. I can't even see everyone's bone structure.

[She seems pretty upset about this.]

[necrotiem]

I don't believe you have anything to be concerned about at the moment, Nona. Beel had a "snack crate" last night, and he seemed quite voracious upon our waking.

[gluttoning]

They were good snacks.

[necrotiem]

Were they? We should be glad you didn't eat them in your sleep, then.

[stilllovesyou]

I never thought it was him to begin with.

But thank you, you're nice.

[necrotiem]

Hahahaha! You may be the first person to ever say that to me in my life.

[stilllovesyou]

Well, I think you're nice to talk to and be around at least.

[conchy]

[He's gonna join Skywarp in making eyes towards Beel.]

A heart, petit chien? I hope you seasoned it first!

[stilllovesyou]

[She's actually getting mad now.]

He wouldn't kill someone just to eat his heart! And he said he liked Vergilius and he wasn't lying! Stop it!

[dupiety]

[Haha get his ass Nona.]

Enough with the jokes, Lobelia. It wasn't him. I refuse to go down this line of reasoning a second week in a row.

[conchy]

Fine, fine~ We'd hate to upset Beel a second time, wouldn't we?

[He says "we" as if what occurred last week wasn't entirely his fault...]

[stilllovesyou]

You shouldn't upset people on purpose. This is why you're being framed for murder.

[gluttoning]

Too late for that.

[It's an aside, but he's getting more annoyed as time progresses.]

[gluttoning]

[He's squinting back, but stays silent. He doesn't have time for you today, man.]
