TRIAL IV

[lesmodsalouette]

Trial

Another Saturday, but this Saturday is your last Saturday. If everything holds, if everything works out. After all you've been through, are you capable of being an optimist? The carnival calls regardless, furniture arranged around as they always are with banquet table and pit in the middle.

This week's new offerings are: a fluffy loaf of a certain type of rye bread, a hearty beef stew and an assortment of fresh pies with candied fruit and cream.

For the last time, find out who killed two of your own: G'raha Tia and Sariel.

(( 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 ))

Because I'm not pretending at moral outrage about all that Cornelius did, you mean?

[ ... this is not a :rainbow: moment, this is a 'everyone in Gundam calls everyone by first name pretty much always' moment. ]

Or because he seemed 'on my side' for a few damn seconds, using my... situation to make himself look better and evade punishment?

[simulacres]

More of the first, I guess. If they try to make it seem like you're upset about his death, then they can use it to make it seem like you killed Sariel and G'raha in revenge.

[ she says it without any judgement, mostly because she thinks it's a stupid idea. but considering that hickey had done something similar, she can't help but wonder if there's a copycat among them. ]

[cleansheets]

[ ... ]

That's the most bullshit idea I've ever heard. He's---

[ He cuts off just because he is legitimately too pissed to speak for a second here.

Then, with emphasis: ] The only man in my heart is Captain Full Frontal.

1/2

[fourtuity]

Yeah, I think it's pretty obvious by now he's into that Captain of—

2/2

[fourtuity]

[ Her eyes widen, a free hand going to her mouth. ]

Full what now!?

[cleansheets]

Captain Full Frontal of Neo Zeon. A man who has transcended humanity.

[ Yes, he is repeating that with a completely straight face. Fervent devotion here. ]

[fourtuity]

Oh, man...

[ She's trying her best not to laugh at the image, but her shoulders shake at the effort. What an answer. ]

Didn't expect that name, but yeah. Gotcha.

[cleansheets]

[ There's a long moment where Angelo just stares at her, as if just daring her to lose composure and laugh...

But she makes a valiant effort, and thus is spared the wrath of an angel. ]

I'm glad you understand. There is nobody I'd kill for but him.

[fourtuity]

[ That does seem to sober her up a bit, nodding. ]

Mm... That's how it is, yeah.

[simulacres]

[ she really doesn't know what to do with that information, but she nods. ]

For what it's worth, I agree with Lili. If this is a frame job, then it's not a good one.

[perfectpower]

Maybe it's to obfuscate who actually killed. If lots of random evidence from other people are mixed in, they could claim they were bein' framed too.

[simulacres]

Maybe a lot of this is to hide who the real killer is. Between the black and white hairs, Angelo's gun, and that thing that they built in the Wintering Room, I'm thinking that the killer was a pretty smart person. They gotta know that we'll be doing laps around this for a while.

[perfectpower]

So we just pick the smartest people here and squeeze 'em a bit until they crack, right?

[no]

[divineth]

[please don't squeeze him he's a squishy healer]

[simulacres]

I think people's ideas of who's the smartest here are probably gonna be different...

[perfectpower]

Nah, it's simple: Not me, not Cain, not Richard, possibly not Jynx or Blade too.

[simulacres]

[ definitely not bradley, that's for sure. ]

[perfectpower]

[He has earned his place in the trio known as Sanbaka.]

[uiscebeatha]

[ DUDE!!!!!!!!!

















okay fine he's not the smartest, ]

[perfectpower]

[Bro do you even know how to use a gun?]

[uiscebeatha]

[ no he doesn't


teach him when they get back ]

[safetycheck]

If they are trying to frame you, they're not doing a very good job. There were white and black strands of hair left behind, and I don't think either of those belong to our victims.

[ It's not conclusive that they belong to the culprit, but if they were trying to frame Angelo, why include the black hair!!! ]

[cleansheets]

Mhm.

[ He honestly expected that people would just distrust him instantly, so this is... weird. ]
