WEEK 5; TRIAL

[killerwaves]

TRIAL

Three dead, one vote. This might be a pit of a pickle, huh? Perhaps appropriately, the kittybots are serving pickles of all flavors today, along with food that might remind you of your childhood like ants on a log, gummy worm sundaes and adorable toast in sweet and savory profiles. To drink, are their best attempts at replicating the DD refreshers with a whole array of silly straws.

Off to the side in a booth of their own are the bodies as well as attendant kittybots (well two bodies and one arm); simply request which body you'd like to look at and the kitty bots will direct you appropriately, given the number of arms floating around. The kittybots continue to do 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. ))

No, I'm saying you'll have to give a better reason than gravity to accuse him if Alice is the one affected.

[ After all, they're fellow Toucans. ]

Otherwise I could do things like accuse you or others of having a gas mask even before entering that lab. You'd need more of a leap than that, I'd think.

[idologue]

By all means, give me your accusations. The gas masks were obtained at the entrance of the lab, where Merlin's companion had presumably brought them from inside of the building. Wang Lu witnessed me receiving it, and vice versa.

[ See, it's this easy to talk about things. ]

Chuuya was willing to demonstrate his power and got subsequently cleared of suspicion regarding the crater. Are you objecting to the base principle of ruling people out?

[divector]

No, I'm saying I know you're biased. That's fine, understandable, but I'm not one to sit by and say nothing when you accuse him outright. Saying you didn't does not magically make it so. Especially when his abilities don't explain what happened to Athos.

[ He seems entirely unbothered, even amused. ]

And I'll leave it at that because Chuuya can take care of himself, as we can see. Right now I'm more interested in separating things out by blood.

[idologue]

So what this boils down to is that you'd rather I be even more direct. I understand.

[divector]

Correct, you got it.

[idologue]

[ There is maybe something unsettling about this being her first smile all trial. ]

That, I can comply with. Right now, I don't trust any of you. I'd like to rectify that by solving these crimes.

[divector]

[ Better. ]

That's how it should've been from the start, but good luck.
