CHAPTER 3 ; TRIAL

[themodsgrimm]

The Story Continues... CHAPTER 3 - WEEK 329 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 Tiger at the head of the table, a glass-covered rose near her right hand. Tick tock, Narrators. You have nine hours to deliberate. Throughout today's trial, the delightful, delectable scent of freshly brewed coffee will linger in the air though there will be no coffee present. Instead, today's trial snacks include...finger foods. Welcome to your 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!

POCKETS CHECK

[thesettingsun]

Could we all please empty out our pockets? It won't take too much time, and we might find something relevant.

[The white ribbon, ideally, but he doesn't think the culprit is that dumb.]

[discardia]

[ Yeah, she's got nothing. ]

[thesettingsun]

[As for Dazai, his pockets contain... a pencil and a few scraps of paper. Exciting.]

[axilium]

[belph empties his pockets and out comes 39475893 bottles of alcohol.

just kidding, he's got absolutely nothing.]

[concasse]

[Sanji's got a cartoon of cigarettes, but nothing else.]

[londonstar]

[ besides a box of cigarettes and a dragon coin from the first trial, waver's got nothing! ]

[psychedelica]

[ Hikage... is still looking fairly shaken, but after a few moments (and probably a bit of nudging), he complies.

There's nothing in particular on his person aside from a handgun and a token for the wishing well. ]

[alttitude]

[he empties out his pockets and he has nothing

and since jae-ha has a penchant for concealed weaponry, he'll say sanji saw him strip down earlier

he has nothing]

[toughchoices]

[Reyna's got nothing in her pockets!

...her gold dog is sitting at her feet, though. He's her item, and he doesn't fit in pockets, alas.]

[resumed]

[Nada.]

[wearys]

[ magnus has got nothing. ]

[randori]

[ god I'm so tired. somebody can hold Natsuo down and empty his pockets while he's busy plotting murder; he's got his dragon wallet with him, and a tuning fork ]

[asswipe]

[A pencil and some napkins over here, but that's about it.]

[fragileprophet]

[He has homemade bandages and the note from the Other Side that he already shared, but that's all.]

[vigilantics]

[ she has the real murder weapon-- no jk.

she just has makeshift bandages. ]

[function]

[ she doesn't even have pockets but she doesn't have anything on her, anyway!

same goes for pod, if anyone wants to check. no hidden compartments or anything. ]

[sanguinairy]

[Souji doesn't even have pockets, he just wears a yukata. Nothing in his sleeves though?!]

[okitactless]

I don't have any pockets...

[He's a Ye Olde okay it's not like he wears pants

But he'll at least take his scarf and haori back off to show that he's not hiding anything! No suspicious lumps in his yukata or hakama, either, and his sword is right where it always is. He'll even take the tie out of his hair and present that too, if need be, but it's the same one it always is.]

[alchemenace]

[ god this is why I had to make an inventory. okay. from out of his starbucks work apron, varian pulls out:

- his rule parchment + ink and quill.
- this tool set
- a scroll with a broken wax seal
- a potion that seems to glow in the dark
- another potion??
- a flower petal
- two folded over notes
- ....... and also fire striker # 4 ]

[selfinserting]

[Evan’s got nothing.]

[wagashis]

[well he definitely doesn't have anything in his pockets.

if anyone feels like searching further they can? but the pockets are very empty.]

[holybind]

[ nothing in his pockets except a butterknife that he received earlier in the week! ]

[faceripper]

[ Fane has, uh. Napkins! So many napkins. Also his quill and ink bottle, as well as the item on his tapestry, the Face Ripper. Since I don't think everyone may have seen that, it's scary and goth looking. ]
