TRIAL II

[lesmodsalouette]

Trial

At least this time you were given ample time to wreck your sleep schedule before the clocks gong at midnight (no apologies for such little sleep in the first place withstanding). The carnival looks just as you remember it, with the banquet and drinks refreshed. The spread is the same as before with two new additions: a platter of cute cupcakes that might remind you of someone, along with baozi of all types.

Like before, mind the pit in the middle and settle in to vote out the guilty party for the death of Siobhan "Shiv" Roy. With the benefit of experience, maybe this will be a little bit easier? With the mood weather lifted, there won't be any floods at trial at least.

(( OOC: Welcome to your first trial! You'll have 7 hours (until 8 PM EDT/5 PM PDT) to vote one (1) person guilty of murder. As this is scapegoat style, a correct vote is not necessary. Please remember to vote unless otherwise discussed with the mods, as that is our AC for this game ))

[ i'm sorry but she isn't ]

Wow... You must have hit your head hard when they stuffed you in the trash at clown school...

[divineth]

Ah, I now understand what thou meant.

[With a nod,]

The storm may have very well persisted throughout the altercation.

[safetycheck]

I see...

[ ...ugh. Ugh! This is so confusing! And then the lightning gets factored in – ]

[caporegrimme]

...that'd make sense. It'd be likelier than someone dragging something and getting a perfectly identical mark every time.

[Scarlet can't believe he's taking a magical thunderstorm as a likelier scenario than the grounded, logical explanation]

[distain]

The one who initiated it last time?

[She was just taking a shot at them all letting Cain, who couldn't see half of them, examine them for injuries. She had no idea this was going to happen...]

[calamitish]

I'm not a clown!!!!!

[ face in hands. me, not him, he has no shame. ]

[baebladie]

It certainly may have.

[ Since this seems to be a consistent pattern.. ]

[coldseep]

( HAS CUPCAEK )

Is this me?

[calamitish]

[ he is way too distracted to notice, f. ]

[safetycheck]

Right. I thought maybe the lantern could have set fire to the library, but there wasn't any glass reported to have been found there...so now, I'm more inclined to believe that the fire was caused by lightning.

And that very well could have been accidental.

[siffriend]

[ ... So that's the shade "purple" takes. ]

[simulacres]

There's a couple others... but yeah, I would.

[vivens]

[ LISTEN.

he had the idea but something something assumptions. ]

Perhaps we should consider someone else. [ not to drag cain but— ] Someone who has a better eye for details.

[safetycheck]

[ ... ]

Yeah. Someone was definitely angry.

[divineth]

'Twas a particularly light snow, not enough to thoroughly dampen her.

[arbalestrier]

Yes, that would be the natural assumption. It appeared there was some struggling involved, so it could be either of them.

[It would be great if there was a way of narrowing it down, but...]

[antemeridian]

... You wear ...

[ gestures at her face. the eyes. ]

The way one would.

[snakeblood]

[ocenon]

[ yay! :D ]

I'd be happy to help look for any injuries, if that's where we'd like to start off.

[fourtuity]

[ pointing where they're standing because what? ]

Hello??? Your stupid circus?!

[vivens]

[ i, naru, looking into the camera. that would have been the obvious answer, no? ]

Would that been the sole reason for it? The kitchen is too far from the library either.

[safetycheck]

I believe the fire was started after the murder took place. The amount of time it could've taken between the fire and Siobhan's death, if the fire took place first - it would have spread quickly. We might have all died by then.

[oncefallen]

[But this is clown-to-clown communication right here--]

[littlegentleman]

But if it was an accident...why barricade us in?

[lesmodsalouette]

[ Single stab! ]
