WEEK 3: TRIAL

[dormheads]

week three: trial

victims:

Good thing yesterday was just a dream, huh?

Just kidding. Everyone will wake up to a text on their phone that has only a simple message:

Go to the gymnasium at 12 PM. Attendance is mandatory.

Everyone is free to go to the designated spot on their own, but once it hits 11:55, any stragglers will feel compelled to go and will join the others at the gym. As soon as every student is inside, the doors will lock behind them.

All of the bleachers are out, so students are free to sit wherever they like. At the very front of the gym is a gathering of a few items, one being a large desk where two of the Dorm Heads are present. When the clock hits noon, the scoreboard turns on, starting a countdown of nine hours.

From where she's seated, Sally speaks.

"You have nine hours again. It's... you'll be able to do it. Work hard."

Better get to it. That scoreboard is ticking.

---

Hello everyone and welcome to our fourth trial! the next nine hours, the characters are expected to discuss among themselves, ask questions, examine the bodies of the victims, look over the evidence found yesterday, and revisit locations as needed in order to find the culprit(s). There'll be a one hour break from 5-6 PM EST, where no mod tags will occur.

Before the trial is over, please remember to place your character's vote over on the voting page. Voting will close at 9 PM EST, and will serve as our activity check for the week, so please be sure you get your vote in before it ends unless you have contacted us previously.

If you have any questions at any time, please let us know by pinging us on Discord!

"Oh, strike me down first!" "Oh, kill me first!"

You fucking sure about that?

shhhh

[chosenwang]

[ is she ok ]

[supercatty]

Oh, so Nier can be dramatic because he's upset but no one else can be?

[just giving her a pointed look!!]

[foreversweaterweather]

[ well FUCK YOU now, because mabel's gonna punch and kick in every direction that she can in hopes of getting Kaine to let go! ]

[amain]

It's fine, Kainé. Let's go.

[alitaba]

[ honestly, she's probably still crying on Kon.

sorry kon ]

[overshaded]

[ every girl i play is a bully.

news flash, asshole! how far do you think her kindness extends? ]

Do I fucking look like I care about what's right to you, Dimitri? Or to anyone?

[duranduel]

[Like he's reciting from a book.]

Servants must serve their Masters regardless of circumstances.

[duranduel]

...

[He's blinking back tears, again.]

I wish he would.

[overlimit]

[well... damn. rita just sinks into a seat and stays there for a bit.]

[chosenwang]

[ okay. he'll just shrug off the outer layer of what he's wearing. just going to drop it on her, before absconding like he didn't do anything ]

[repress]

[ he really doesn't seem to care. ]

Then you shouldn't be surprised when people stand in your way.

[overshaded]

You were all dramatic! You all have been! I didn't stop anyone during trial! Is he not allowed to now that the trial is over?

Fuck that!

[divineimpulse]

[...]

I want you to live, as well.

[chosenwang]

[ Hesitating for a moment before putting a hand on Mandi's back this time. ]

Are you staying by her tonight?

[duranduel]

...

[He shakes his head? But he looks unsure.]

[overshaded]

I'm not.

[ why do you think she's here

but nier said to go

so i guess she's going ]

[overshaded]

[ She frowns at him and turns to leave. ]

[overshaded]

[ Well, she's leaving now, so Mabel is being let go and can do whatever she wants. ]

[supercatty]

Because none of us pulled weapons on her in the middle of all the drama! Whether he really meant to kill her or not-- which, obviously, he didn't-- you can't be surprised when people react to that!

[chosenwang]

[ He isn't shaking off this touch yet.

Giving him a quick pat before dropping his hand. ]

Come on, let's take a walk then.

[ Since Nier is leaving and Mabel is likely going to defend Byleth for the time being. Mandi can take a breather ]

[overshaded]

If that's your choice, fine. This is mine.

[duranduel]

I know.

[He looks...extremely sympathetic.]

I know it is.

[duranduel]

[There's a very long pause.]

[And he just nods, with no feeling.]

[Sure. A breather.]

[overshaded]

And I can react to that, too, can't I?

[ SHE NEVER SAID SHE WAS LOGICAL i'm sorry

anyway, nier is telling her to go, so she's going to go. ]
