PROLOGUE : TRIAL

[themodsgrimm]

The Story Continues... PROLOGUE - WEEK 037 Narrators Remain ; Wakey wakey, naughty murder children. It's a lovely Saturday, after all. Breakfast is served piping hot at its usual time and all of the evidence has been removed from the scenes of yesterday. No matter how you choose to spent your morning though, the clock will begin to chime the moment both hands reach the large, ornate twelve. Before your eyes materializes a door...but not just any door. Unlike the door leading to the festival, this door sits primly and properly right in front of the foyer. Whether you exit the castle on your own or you feel a friendly, invisible push, you begin to walk under an arc of wisterias. Behind you, the clock continues to chime with every step you take. By the time the time the clock strikes twelve, you've entered a beautiful garden. In front of you is a long table, 19 seats on each side. Around the garden are several glass cases containing evidence collected yesterday. As noon intensifies on the sun-shaped clock, you'll find Dragon at the head of the table, a glass-covered rose near her right hand. Tick tock, Narrators. You have nine hours to deliberate. Welcome to your first trial post! Please see here for the OOC summary of events from yesterday's investigation. In addition, please be sure to vote! Please see the voting page on how to vote, as we will have two special things to vote for. Voting will close at 9pm EST/6pm PST! If you have any questions, please ask on our Discord server or ping us on plurk. Please direct pings for the NPC to Dana (decals), as she will be taking point for today's NPC, and the moderator team will be on deck for all other questions. full navigation. locations taken (statuses) stories (profiles) info & faq wishing well private conversations

To make it look like she did it!

[ not saying that sharpay did it- but somebody else to frame her ]

[ He sighs ]

Now, are you saying that because you genuinely believe it, or is it a belief born out of naivete? Someone murdered that woman, and without knowing any of you, I would simply assume that all of you are quite capable of it. Why, it's hardly difficult to kill someone.

[ fane, ]

[randori]

It's— I want to believe it! It's hard to kill someone! And make it as complicated as this!!

[thesettingsun]

This is pretty simple, actually. Puncture wound to the neck, puncture wound to the chest. It's the other details around it that have us confused.

[randori]

There's no reason to have all those extra details! How're we supposed to figure this out like that?!

[ by using their BRAINS
that Natsuo does not have, why is he in a murder game ]

[thesettingsun]

Have you noticed that most people are smarter than you?

Quiet down. The grown-ups are talking.

[randori]

[ wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ]

I want to kick you in the face but I promised I wouldn't.

[thesettingsun]

You're not the first to have told me that. Most likely not the last.

[faceripper]

By the Void, no it certainly isn't. You mortals are very, very fragile.

[randori]

Like hell we are! If someone tried to kill me, I'd fight with everything I have! Gi-Gan wouldn't go down that easily too! We'd be able to hear her!
