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

Well, for the sake of thoroughness-

Sir angel, would you care to tell me the details of how your last several days were passed?

[holybind]

[ His smile is just a little sharp. ]

Thoroughness? Is that what this is. If you got something to say to me, you can just say it. We're friends, aren't we kid?

[fonlines]

You asked me not to vote for you, so I thought it only prudent to ask! It's not in the least a personal matter, sir angel.

Give me a reason to mark you off the list, and we can move on to the next person. Can't it be that simple?

So please, answer the question.

[holybind]

I have people who can confirm where I was Thursday. But lets be honest— it's going to come down to who you all like the least and who just gives you a bad feeling. So really, I don't see the point in wasting my breath and pleading for my life.

[fonlines]

That's all I needed, thank you. Truly, was that so difficult? I'm trying to keep us all at least a little civil, but...

[holybind]

Civil— that what you're calling this? Well, as long as you're satisfied.

[fonlines]

[ thinly: ]

Well, we're doing better than we did last week.

And truly, with three partnerless- and our reactions having been what they were-

[ look everyone saw souji and 2b's reactions ]

I think we're doing quite well, in all actuality.

[ no one's been mid-trial murdered and honestly this is a travesty. ]

[fonlines]

[ actually given what's uh, going on with waver and reyna, ]

... is there anyone who can confirm your whereabouts who isn't miss Reyna?

[holybind]

Sanji, told him I was going to hang out with Reyna— he's been paranoid about me being out by myself near curfew since you know I'm missing a fucking eye. Was waiting for me at the door when I got back before curfew.

[concasse]

Would you not phrase it like that, bastard!

[... So yeah that's a confirmation]
