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

That's complicated... I thought if they can lift a heavy guy, anyone light wouldn't be a problem.

[ Where is Kyouka with her encyclopedia height/weight memory?

If not her, then-- points at Steph ]

Is she close enough? She says she can pretend.

[toughchoices]

[Looks at Steph

Looks in the direction of the body]

I'm just eyeballing it, but she looks about the right size.

[randori]

Ah! I can carry her, no problem!

[ don't look so proud about that?? ]

[toughchoices]

...

[natsuo.]

You realize that makes you suspicious, doesn't it?

[finethanks]

Natsuo-kun is the type of person who, if guilty, would probably yell so at the top of his lungs, you know? That innocent comment should be ignored.

[toughchoices]

I don't disagree - but he should take care with how he speaks. It would be unfortunate if, should we find ourselves grasping at straws, we had nothing else to clutch at but that sort of admission.

[randori]

I'm not the only one who can do it! I bet there's lots of people who can!! It's not that hard!

[finethanks]

Did you hear that, Natsuo-kun? You're being scolded, so please do your best to behave. Consider your words before they're spoken.

[randori]

I'm behaving!! Thinking before I talk is hard!

[ evidently! who even thinks before they speak? it's like saying the same thing twice- once in your head and once out loud- nobody has time for that ]

[toughchoices]

[that actually gets a faint smile out of reyna

you're delightful, natsuo. please never change.]

[nivation]

[ KYOUKA HAS THAT BUT I DO NOT SWEATS ]

She is close, and the fainting twin.

[ what are replicas ]
