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! If you have any questions, please ask on our Discord server or ping us on plurk. Please direct pings for the NPC to Danielle (entrappings), 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

Dazai was quite eager for it. Shirasu... was not against it. Not did Hijikata or Souji, I believe- they merely withheld their support simply because we couldn't be sure what would happen.

Zelos, 2B, and yourself seemed to support the idea for some time as well.

[ he doesn't entirely remember the read he managed of most of the rest of the crowd, back then, even if that suspicion of others did end up plaguing him throughout the week. ]

[toughchoices]

Dazai's agreement was the most vocal, as I recall.

[Like. She has been thinking that this whole time - though a scythe sure is a different type of blade than a katana. Would he have had the skill? She's not sure...]

I won't say I wasn't very heavily in favor of it - at least, not until we found an alternative.

[thesettingsun]

It was.

[Not gonna deny it.]

I won't say I'm sad that he's gone because everyone here would know that was a lie, but I had nothing to do with any of the deaths.

[He's calmer than he usually is.]

[toughchoices]

[Hmm - he does seem pretty calm. Reyna will remember that.]

As you said before... the scythe and the katana are different weapons, and you've had no training in the latter, yes?

[thesettingsun]

None. Technically I haven't had any training in any weapons - the scythe skills came with the summoning process. I'm not sure how much of that would translate if I tried to use a sword, but I've never had reason to check.

Monika was 2B's partner. So even if we take into consideration how, um, eager she was last week...

[Would she really gamble with her own life like that? Even if she's. Definitely got Terminator vibes, lbr.]
