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. ))

VOTING RESULTS

[allworknoplague]

Show's over -- I don't think you need me to tell you who you all voted for, or that it was correct. [...] Is what I want to say, but you've got votes for Kallamar, Chuuya, Billy, Nona and Haruka, so at least some of you have too much free time.

[It's underlined with irritation, but that may just be because he had to get off his ass for once. At this point he's just dismantling the booths as he's talking, so perhaps everyone wants to be out of here as soon as possible.]

That was our execution, I guess. We've got our two sacrifices, so that's another week down. You've got some downtime, so try not to keep killing each other until you need to.

[Several things happen all at once this time: the booths are ground back to sand, the kittybots carrying the body follow the administrators on their way back out, the land bridge welcomes those desperately trying to leave this gore-soaked and Lobelia-soaked sandbar... and two kittybots remain with Beelzebub by the bridge, holding him there in case anyone wants to check on that.

Grab your last slices of pizza and any belongings, because it looks like trial is out of session.]

[gluttoning]

[He's still in his demon form, still not moving. But his chest can be seen moving with breath.

He's out like a light, and will be for a while. But Beelzebub is alive.]

[chosenwang]

[ His chest is moving. He'll let out a sigh of his breath.

He'll let the others approach Beel first and hang back to watch for now ]

[stilllovesyou]

[Suddenly, when it's all done, Nona sparks back to life. She sprints to Beelzebub and crouches down next to him.]

Beel! Lord of the Flies! I'm sorry! [She's not sure what she's sorry for but it's all she can say as the tears drip down her face.]

[finalmix]

[ too many people right now so josh will approach later tbh ]

[dupiety]

[It's a wonder that Temenos has the strength to move after everything that just unfolded before him, but he's making a desperate dash to check on Beelzebub.

It's only when he confirms that somehow, in spite of everything, Beelzebub is still alive, that he wordlessly crumples to his knees under the emotional weight.]

[chosenwang]

[ Oh. He gives him a moment because he isn't sure if the other wants a moment to at least fall apart without someone up close and personal.

Then he'll walk over. ]

We should probably move him to the buffet.

[dupiety]

[Thanks bestie.

He rubs at his eyes after Wang Lu makes his presence known.]

Hah. We should at least allow him to rest comfortably first. I can see about preparing another crate for him.

[dancing_flames]

[Shuda looks up from where he's got a hand on Lacus' shoulder.]

Put him on my back. I can carry him.

[He may not be the tallest guy around, but he's more than strong enough to be able to manage that.]

[dupiety]

Thank you, Shuda. If you could bring him to the Dodo cabana...

[Since that is the desired spot!]

[finalforte]

[This became way less fun when it got gross.

Everyone else is crowding around him, so she'll surreptitiously sneak a glance at his nails. Did someone beat her to fixing them up for him?]

[gluttoning]

[It sure looks like it! He definitely didn't have the glitter on them before.]

[finalforte]

[Cheater!!

Well, whatever. This place is super gross now, so off she goes!]

[microtransactions]

[ oh, he's gathering a crowd, huh.

maybe some other time. ]

[passetemps]

[ after all of that, it's an immense relief to see him breathing.

...though he does wonder how badly this whole experience is going to weigh on him. ]

[diabolizes]

[ He’s not gonna crowd, but he’ll get close enough to confirm that he’s at least breathing, letting out a sigh of relief of his own. ]

[dakicover]

[ crea is going to be running over to beelzebub, looking rather ragged. ]

Beel!

[gluttoning]

[He won't respond, but he is definitely alive.]

[dakicover]

[ how is he physically? ]

[gluttoning]

[Outside of being very unconscious, he's in one piece and free from any wounds, just stained with blood that could either be his or Lobelia's given the whole Tower situation.]

[hearnoplague]

[ Kallamar is not going to bother dignifying that vote with a response, he is running across that bridge the first chance he gets. ]

[gravitys]

[ Wow!! ]

Seriously? [ Why would you vote for him when Lobelia was right there, he means. ]

[chosenwang]

They must be jealous of the hat. [ Tone is light, but he looks anything but. He's still internally reeling from... everything ]

[gravitys]

I need a nap. [ YEAH, he feels that. Though the whole "Lobelia murders someone" was expected, the rest of it was a lot. ]

[divector]

I do feel like a nap is warranted after this. Did you want anything from the buffet?

[ She pauses for a moment, actually thinking. ]

Ah. Maybe not?
