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

Good question.

[vigilantics]

I'm not the one who came up with the idea. I'm just offering my services.

Mm, not sure anyone here regularly throws French girls, unlike Leonardo DiCaprio.

[vigilantics]

It was a joke.

[ she's so tired ]

[randori]

I thought we were going to copy what happened to Gi-Gan?

[ lifting people in their arms and stuffing bodies into armor and stuff, what is this about throwing?? ]

[vigilantics]

Are we sure this is necessary?

[DOES HE LOOK LIKE HE CAN THROW A FRENCH GIRL]

[Just. Gonna glance at her...before he nods.]

Are we just picking you up and throwing you then?

[hairbrain]

French... girls?

[ everyone else has yelled about the other thing so here's the obligatory person who doesn't get the fuckin joke. ]

[selfinserting]

Are you, um, are you sure this is a good idea...?

[unromanceable]

... maybe this wasn't the best timing for a joke?

[finethanks]

[He's just... going to be watching this, quietly, from the sidelines. Why are they throwing a girl. Is this how they do justice outside of Japan?]

[concasse]

[What is even going on with this trial but it's okay SANJI IS HERE FOR THIS]

Stephanie-chwan, do you need someone to catch you!

[thesettingsun]

I'd rather just princess carry you, if you wouldn't mind.

[I feel it is important to note here that Dazai has not put his shirt back on yet.]

[melancoffeea]

Picking you up, is it? Let's get this over with.

[londonstar]

I...don't believe I could carry you very well.

[ he's all skin and bones underneath the clothing, and would hate it for steph to end up falling because of him... ]
