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 ))

So you were sparring, then.

[..]

I'd advise you not to hit each other on the throat, then. It could be fatal with enough force.

[baebladie]

[ ...well...

Blade looks at Dan Heng and then Sousuke because this wasn't...sparring... ]

[arbalestrier]

[Looks back at everyone else because this is kind of sus...]

[cleansheets]

[ He's losing his mind at how long this stupid dancing around the matter is going on, so he'll... just come out and say it. ]

Sousuke. They were having depraved sex.

[fourtuity]

I win this game of chicken.

[ She nods. Yeah, there was totally one going on in the background here. ]

[cleansheets]

Dancing around it was getting unbearably old.

[ SOUSUKE GOTTA LEARN TO DEAL WITH THE REAL WORLD. ]

[perfectpower]

Does Sousuke even know what sex is?

[cleansheets]

.......................


[ HOPEFULLY???? ]

[arbalestrier]

[He nods. Surely that was an actual question, right.]

Many of the mercenaries I fought with talked about their nightly escapades.

[remainsilent]

You could have whispered it to him.

[cleansheets]

Don't pretend you're not all enjoying flaunting it.

[ NONE OF YOU ARE FREE OF SIN. ]

[remainsilent]

[ He is tempted to go hide somewhere now ]

I'd prefer people to mind their own business.

[arbalestrier]

Oh.

[There's a very long stretch of silence where everyone can see the moment realization dawns on his face.

.......................]

I see. Will they be wedded?

[cleansheets]

[ flatly: ] No. Everyone here is having disgusting non-marital sex out of wedlock. Sorry to say.

[perfectpower]

But that's the best kind of sex!

[remainsilent]

That isn't for all of you to discuss.

[ocenon]

[





that isn't a no though ]

[remainsilent]

[ THEY ARE ALREADY MARRIED or were married? half married?

he doesn't want to think about it ]

[uiscebeatha]

[ God, this exchange is so funny, because he can actually see Sousuke today.

So Cain is going to gently lean over and whisper quietly to him: ]

If it is what I think it is, [ judging by the atrocious vibes here ] then they probably weren't sparring. It was probably from something more, uh, intimate.

[ Patting him awkwardly on the shoulder... ] Don't worry about it.

[arbalestrier]

Hmm...

[He doesn't really seem like he actually gets it, but this gets him to move off the whole 'maybe sariel suckerpunched him in the throat theory'.]

Very well. I'll put it out of my mind.

[At least until Angelo comes right out and says it uh]

[remainsilent]

Has anyone ever told you that you inspire the urge to smack you?

[ Just sighing ]

If it makes it easier for you, we'll call it sparring. I can verify the marks I've left on him as he can do the same for me.
