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. ))

Same here.

It's kind of hard to track something like that, though. Not unless someone saw a CD or something with someone else.

[necrotiem]

Look at how many of us had harpoons stashed away in secret places.

[So...yeah, definitely hard to track and easy to lie about. She assumes CDs are much smaller than harpoons! What the fuck is a CD!]

[dancing_flames]

[Don't remind him of how there were at least 2 harpoons in Dove alone...]

[gluttoning]

Yeah. A CD would be a lot smaller and easier to hide.

[conchy]

There you go, petit chien! You're much smarter than I'd given you credit for...!

[Guess who whips Haruka's CD right out of his pocket? Tada!]

Your music is simply divin, Haruka! Yours is the voice of an ange! Considering how poorly we tend to sleep the night before trial, I thought I might surprise everyone with your dulcet tones! What else would soothe our nervous souls better than our very own idol?!

[Still... he has a question, one which might resolve one of the questions on people's minds.]

Ah, but s'il vous plaît dites-moi, what language are you singing in? I would love to learn it!

[passetemps]

[ are you fucking serious ]

[plunges]

[ he's about to midtrial rn peace everyone ]

[finalmix]

Huh.

[ WHAT KINDA NON-REACTION IS THAT. ]

[idologue]

................. oh my.

Damn it!! There's a problem!!

[ She doesn't even know what face to make, but Haro can cuss in the meantime, it's fine. ]

Lobelia... When and how did you set this up?

[conchy]

I'm so glad you asked, Chère! I set this up Thursday afternoon in anticipation of this day! I hope Haruka's lilting cries have gone far to lift your spirits!

[And as for how... Lobelia sighs.]

You know it exhausts me to explain these things. Magic isn't something that can be easily explained, can it?

[idologue]

[ Lacus is just... stunned. She'll let the lack of explanation fly, she's just... ]

I may... have misunderstood your meaning, I am quite afraid.

[ SHE THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD. ]

[gluttoning]

[Oh my god are you trying to get on his nerves today]

When did you have the chance to put that on the speakers?

[conchy]

Thursday afternoon! I set it up to play in advance!

[But why is he the only one who feels happier for having heard Haruka's song this morning? This makes no sense to him. Haruka's legit the GOAT, you guys.]

[townmusician]

[At least it’s not a conch shell again.]

Japanese.

[He answers that automatically because this situation is too bizarre and he’s just running in impulse.]

Why the hell would you do that?! People are dying!!

[conchy]

Oui, I'm quite well aware of that! We're going to find a body on our hands every week, non?

[Lobelia speaks matter-of-factly because, well, it is a fact, isn't it?]

We should all do our part to keep our spirits high during such trying times. This was mine — and your — contribution!

[dancing_flames]

[Hey is it too late to join the body pile]

[dupiety]

[



forget what i said in that last tag]

When, exactly, did you do this?

[conchy]

I'm glad you asked, Père! I had a hunch we may find ourselves waking to the sight of carnage and bloodshed, so in an effort to prepare ahead of time, I set up Haruka's CD to play Thursday afternoon.

[He's looking at Temenos with a hopeful glint in his eyes. Praise him...?]

Answer me honestly, Père, and do not be shy! His song lifted your spirits high this morning, non?!

[stilllovesyou]

Oh, I'm sorry for saying you were framed, I guess you did it...

[conchy]

Hahaha! All is forgiven, Mademoiselle Nona! I am Haruka's biggest fan, after all.

[He wasn't about to let someone sit idly by and take credit for his "crime"!]

[divector]

[ immediately goes to grab mozzarella sticks from the nearest vendor ]

[finalmix]

[ getting pizza too ]

[conceivesfrenzy]

[ ditto, going to get enough sticks for her and Athos ]

[necrotiem]

[Hehehe...hyeh...HAHAH!]

Oh, we can't have him killed. He's too funny!

[conchy]

Oui! Oui! Oui! She makes a fine point!

[HEH HEH HON HON HON]
