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.

He’s an author recognized not only for being one of Japan’s most memorable modern authors but also for also for his turbulent and self-destructive life. [ what can he say? waver’s a bookworm ]

It’s not something I’d be wholly proud of if I were him. He may have been famous, but his terrible personality is enough to overshadow it here.

[So everyone is confirming him as an author. Fitzgerald frowns.]

Hm. Well, author or not...you're right. He may have written great things, but if his personality is as immature and ugly as it is, it doesn't mean that should be respected. He should act better if he wants to be taken seriously.

[ waver sighs, full of disappointment towards dazai’s actions. part of him continues to hope that the author will change at some point but... fuck. ]

Even this... do not take it too seriously. Consider it a tantrum because he can’t cope well with Lady Shapray’s guilt in this murder case.

Don't worry, I will. I'm annoyed but ultimately, I've already written him off as someone not worth bothering with. Let him be angry all he wants. He just doesn't need to go against my partner again, and I'll be happy.
