CHAPTER SEVEN ; TRIAL

[themodsgrimm]

The Story Continues... CHAPTER 7 - WEEK 711 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. The garden is strangely silent and there are no snacks today...it seems as though you'll be left to your own devices. Welcome to your trial post!

[Dazai gives the flowers a good once-over before sitting down.]

If you need more tears, I happen to be a master of crying at the slightest provocation!

[There's no way he can make that sound impressive, but he tries.]

[sanguinairy]

[D...AZAI... PLEASE... Souji looks pretty amused but it's fine, they're doing great here.]

I think we were able to cry enough. I hope? Now we just have to warm them, somehow.

[EVERYONE HUDDLE so the ground can open up below and swallow them all whole.]

[asswipe]

... Oh my god, don't say that like it's a good thing.

[DAZAI???

Anyway, yeah. Huddle up, yeets!]

[selfinserting]

[And huddle they do!!

Time to get swallowed up by some flowers.]

[thesettingsun]

I was just trying to aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-

[That's the sound Dazai makes when the ground suddenly collapses out from under them. He isn't sure how far he falls, but it was still unwanted thank you.]

...I guess no point asking where we go next...

[sanguinairy]

[YEAH THEY'RE JUST HERE IN THIS DARK TUNNEL NOW, I GUESS.]

...Forward? There isn't exactly anywhere else to go.

[And lo, a chest up ahead...!]

[asswipe]

[AMAZING. Assuming they grabbed the flower and clock keys, too.]

Do we have all the keys we need?

[selfinserting]

Yeah, we do. We did everything they needed us to.

[Time to abscond with this chest.]

[thesettingsun]

[They retrieve the chest and they go back to the weird space and Souji doesn't miss his own execution!! :D]
