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 ))

[ Poor Yoonhee. Not that he'd want them anyway.

They'll gently set a stained, wooden buck in Yoru's hand, precisely carved with small details of the antlers and hooves. The animal's mid-rest, somewhat relaxed, and one can almost imagine it lifting its head the moment there might be a sound. ]

I made this for you.

[ ...

startled eyes meet siffrin's. he's quiet for a long, long moment. then his expression shifts and he looks... like he doesn't know what face he should be making. it shifts between angry and confused and - something else.

oh. ]

... Why?

[ his hand curls around the buck. ]

[siffriend]

Because I wanted to.

[ A small shrug. They... don't know what to do with the small range of emotions going on with Yoru, but... ]

You're gentle, but you don't run away. I think you can be strong and brave, if it's for someone else's sake.

[ And Siffrin!!!!!! Is being proven right!!!!! This trial!!!!!!!!! ]

I think it's an animal that suits you, Yoru. If I had my "magic", then I could make it graze, but... I hope you like it anyway.

[congrats on your harem, siff]

[siffriend]

[ THEIR HAREM?????????????? ]

[diel]

[ he listens intently. when siffrin's done speaking, yoru murmurs some of their words back at them. ]

Gentle... strong... brave...

[ for someone else's sake? he... doesn't know about that. ]

I see. Alright. Thank you.

[ it's a weak thank you, but yoru's fingers close around the buck and he holds it to his chest. he won't give it back. he won't. ]

[siffriend]

[ Heheh. Siffrin smiles brightly at him, but that's all there is to it. They have to go lose themselves in the coconut sauce. ]

[diel]

[ the slightest pause and then yoru smiles back. it's not a smile he's ever given siffrin.

he thumb rubs absently at the stain on the wooden buck. ]
