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 ))

It's an easy place to reach, as long as you have your hands free.

[ Siffrin tugs at their hair, then motions to their eye. The covered one, mind. ]

If I could make them flinch for a moment, then that's enough of a chance to do more. Especially... if you have nails, it's effective.

[ hmm. ]

I like to keep my nails clean.

[ super random, but he does have nice nails ok and he takes care of them! look, he even shows them to siffrin, holding both hands out, fingers and rings displayed. ]

[siffriend]

[ Those are such nice nails!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please let there be nothing suspicious with them, I would cry.

Siffrin looks down at their own gloves. ]

... I have a bad habit of biting mine when I'm nervous, so I started wearing gloves to stop it. They still aren't as nice as yours.

[ They still chew them off when they start getting too long, after all. Sorry. ]

But I think painting them together would be fun.

[diel]

[ all five of his fingernails blink innocently and prettily, nothing sus (?) ]

Sure. [ it does sound fun. he's never done it before. you'd think this emo boy would have tried at least once. ] ... Promise?

[siffriend]

[ (?) please. all five rings accounted for king??????? ]

Promise. We can do it whenever, but... "Next week" would be nice. So we'd have it for longer, if it resets again.

[ if that's how many I wrote on the profile oops

time to hook pinkies, siffrin! ]

[siffriend]

[ it is yes i triple checked

oh!!!!! Yes. A pinky promise is fine. This will not hurt you in the future.

(You count the seconds, like always.) ]

[diel]

[ yay, a pinky promise.

oh, and: ]

Siffrin? [ his smile promises warmth. ] I really, really don't like it when people break their word. So please. Don't.

Okay?

[siffriend]

[ A short huff of laughter. It's something of a friendly threat, Siffrin can tell -- but not in a violent way, in a familiar sort of way. Of trust broken, and hurt hearts. ]

I don't make promises I don't intend to keep.

[ One way or another. ]
