week 1 - trial; day 2

[vicedirector]

seven vices case 1 trial, day 2 ♫ sunday At 9AM, every television will go off, loud enough to wake anyone sleeping. The calm, apathetic voice will advise everyone to gather in the chapel for the trial. Static will continue to blare in the head of anyone dillydallying. Once all of the guests have gathered in the chapel, the doors will lock. Most of the pews have been moved aside to allow for more space, and a few tables have been set up on the altar. On the first, there is an additional copy of the rulebook, and the information cards of the victim and suspects laid out, with space for the suspects to provide their whereabouts, as well as an autopsy report. There is also a large wheeled chalkboard upon which you may write theories. On the second table is a pitcher of water and some glasses, as well as very simple sandwiches and pastries. The door behind the altar has finally been unlocked. It's a rather plain room with an area set off by a folding screen. Inside, you will find a table on which the victim's body has been laid out. Next to the table, two black and white photographs have been hung on the screen. they are close ups of the victim's body, as it was found when the body discovery announcement chimed. A few sticks of incense burn in the corner to avoid any smells. At 5PM, the trial will close, after which everyone is expected to have cast their votes. >Discuss? victim suspects   VOTING cast setting rulebook

Because I didn't kill him.

[smileleftbehind]

Listen, I don't care about naked bodies like some people here. Show me, or people might think you did kill someone.

[okuri]

No.

I didn't kill him. He was kind to me. [ Even though Yoite repeatedly told him not to be.]

[smileleftbehind]

Why are you so upset about having your clothes searched!?

[okuri]

[ This wasn't working, and he's not repeating himself again. And he certainly isn't going to answer the question.

He just stares, and then walks off.]

[smileleftbehind]

[Cheshire reaches out to grab him by the collar. Yup. His clothes.] I'm not done!

[okuri]

[ Chesire gets a brief hold before Yoite turns and jumps back, being surprisingly agile.]

I said don't touch me.

[smileleftbehind]

Why shouldn't I!? You're a suspect!

[okuri]

Because I won't let you. [ He holds his right hand out, pointer finger extended. From his posture and demeanor it should be clear that he's willing to fight over this, at this point.]

[smileleftbehind]

[Cheshire almost looks like he isn't going to back down. Even his posture looks like he's sinking in to pounce. But he doesn't.] What are you going to do?

[okuri]

I could kill you. Or break all your bones. [ But it would be an investment for him here, even if all he did was knock him unconscious. It was a last resort.]

[smileleftbehind]

Even though it'd be obvious you're the murderer? If you could hurt me. [He huffs with a tail twitch and straightens,] Fine. But I'm not forgetting this.
