WEEK 4; TRIAL

TRIAL



You all know the drill by now even if things are a little different today, with the two deceased and the shuffling of the announcements. Things are much the same at the sandbar though, kittybots setting out seafood as the theme for this week, along with every flavor of mountain dew under the sun, including the energy drink kind. (food mod note: this is actually on brand MTN dew for once!).

Off to the side in a booth of their own are the bodies as well as attendant kittybots; simply request which body you'd like to look at and the kitty bots will direct you appropriately, as if it's difficult to tell the difference between a squid and a giant robot. Maybe they're just there trying to be helpful, they're doing their best. .

(( OOC: Welcome to your third trial! You'll have 7 hours (8PM EST/5PM PST) to vote one (1) person guilty of murder. 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. ))

DOX YOURSELF (u-pinion check)

[personal profile] necrotiem 2023-06-10 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Given that Beel found an inoperable device atop the waterfall, we should be certain a missing or damaged piece of equipment isn't dangling right under our noses.

Would you all please retrieve your U-PINIONs and show them to be both undamaged and belonging to you?

[For her part, Waltaquin shows her U-PINION, which is both free of damage and clearly posting with the account jadefield. There are photos from Verg's dummy thick ass craters in last week's case as well.]

HOLY BUTT CHECK THE 3RD

[After a drawn-out sigh, Temenos claps his hands to get everyone's attention.]

As we have reason to believe that a fight broke out, we ought to perform a thorough check for injuries. I am afraid this will be more invasive than the last, so I would ask that we work together to examine each other with personal comfort in mind.

Xiao and Wang Lu have volunteered to assist me, and it would be ideal for a woman to also volunteer.

Let's get to it, shall we?

CATHERD

[ Sometime after the strip check has concluded, Lacus is going to move more to the center of the trial area and clear her throat. ]

Our checks have sadly proven inconclusive, so we'll have to return to speculation for now. We have a wealth of evidence on our hands this time, so I believe it may be for the best to try and summarize what we have concluded so far.

Skywarp fought someone at the waterfall. The battle begun at the top of the waterfall, where massive damage was dealt to the rock formations. Over the course of the battle, Skywarp's foot was cut off - both he and it fell down into the area below, where Skywarp also lost his makeshift-prosthetic. He came out of the pond and was alive for long enough to hop around for a bit but soon either passed away or at least passed out.

We know he wasn't conscious, because there are drag marks from the waterfall to the rails where there's tracks from a go-kart. The go kart tracks lead from the go-kart area to Kingfisher's Retreat, where Skywarp was loaded on and then further to Dodo's Outlook. Here, they took a stop at the Planetarium to gather the supplies for setting up Skywarp's body. They did not set off Crea's flour trap, so they were acting carefully. Their final stop, then, was the theater where they set his body up on the stage.
The killer could not move Skywarp's body as far as they wanted on their own, so they went and got a go-kart for these purposes. Interestingly, the go-kart only went in straight lines, and did not curve properly. Was it pushed, rather than driven...?

We are thus looking for a killer who has a weapon or ability capable of both removing Skywarp's foot and causing the puncture injuries to his upper body. As they were able to drag the body from the waterfall to the rails, they would also be physically strong.

Meanwhile Kallamar got into a fight at the beach, which seems to be the only noteworthy location for this specific murder. Though someone had made makeshift molotov cocktails previously. They were set off during the beach confrontation - the glass pieces line up to prove it.

Kallamar was stabbed over and over, even going so far as to remove his arm. A harpoon remained lodges in his chest. There was a number of metal shards found at the scene, all seemingly distinct from one another, but I admit I can't make heads or tails of them yet...

weapons check

[personal profile] plunges 2023-06-10 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
If you have any weapons on you, present them now.

[ Though he'll also kind of see if he can detect any unusual behavior or clothing lumps, etc. that would indicate if anyone's purposefully hiding any weapons on their person.

Xiao is checking for Skywarp blood, any scratches or recent polishes, etc. (I'm just going to throw this out there since we're low on time.)

STRENGTH TALK

[ Increasingly tense: ]

Coming at it from an angle of strength necessary to move Skywarp... I believe the people capable of such a feat would be Ibuki, Beelzebub and Miss Xiao? Am I missing anybody?

VOTING RESULTS

[personal profile] handsheld 2023-06-11 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
Game over, GG, didja have fun? The one with the highest score is...Kanon! But that's not a surprise, huh? She killed the squid, obviously. As for Skywarp's murder, everyone involved had a fun time, so does it really matter?

[ An emphatic shrug. ]

Oh yeah, we also got votes for Nona, Billy, and Temenos.

Anyway, since I didn't get to kill someone this week, one of you get the honors of offing Kanon. We'll do that the same way we did it the first time, so I'm not gonna explain it again. Cya then!

[ With all that chuuni jargon no one needed, Shigaraki will hop off the platform, disintegrating the glass in the booth with a quick press of one of his hands against the glass, the kittybots whirring to life to surround Kanon. The path back to the main island also reappears not too long after, with Overhaul, the corpses and the kittybots leaving now that things are settled.

Shigaraki for the time being is sticking around though, waiting for someone.

All of that aside, Kanon will be in jail on Sungem Island until the execution if anyone wants to visit her, and execution signups are now open! ]
