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

Right! And that proves that the murderer is...

...I STILL DON'T GET IT!!

[minogame]

I don't know either!

( THIS IS HARD )

[herbgrace]

It does probably rule out Vegeta...? I can't think of a reason for him to fight someone by the bonfire and then pick them up and set them down and pick them up again, and he's too strong to drop Takeo. [Does that help at all...] And I don't think anyone who can't fly could have done it.

[minogame]

And Buddy said it can't be someone who couldn't fly... so it's not Youko-san or Yoite-san!

[detanimetion]

Both of their alibis suck! MAYBE THEY BOTH DID IT!!

[lastgirl]

I think it at least proves who isn't the killer. Yoite and Youko can't fly, so if we're positive now that he was flown up to the roof, then it can't be them.

[minogame]

Ah, that's a really good point!

( BLESS YOU BUDDY. )

And Miss Lituania and some others have ruled out Mr. Vegeta! So that only leaves...

( Hanyuu or Kaguya. )

[herbgrace]

Are we certain Youko's shapeshifting doesn't involve being able to turn into anything that can fly?

[muties]

I think she said it had something to do with a fox? Those don't fly.

[minogame]

And a normal sized fox too.

[herbgrace]

Going by her own word, though... Do you think Miata would tell us if it has to do with the abilities explained on the cards?

[lastgirl]

She does have ears and a tail normally. It's weird that she refused to shapeshift.

[smileleftbehind]

Hanyuu.

[detanimetion]

Why her over the other one?! [one of these days she will bother to learn people's names but not today]

[smileleftbehind]

She was very upset to be one of the suspects, she went swimming, like Takao did. She's not too strong, so it would make sense for her to need to drug him and have a hard time carrying him with flight, which would explain the half-made foot steps. The other woman seems stronger, since she has a more grown body.

[detanimetion]

You'd think if that was the case, she'd just lie about going swimming though. And you can't tell how strong someone is just by their body, especially if they have magic!

[lastgirl]

She couldn't lie about it. We found the bathing suit in her bathroom - if she lied, it would look far more suspicious.

[detanimetion]

Then why'd she go swimming before killing someone to begin with?!

[smileleftbehind]

She said it herself. She probably thought it would throw us off.

Also, if it was Kaguya, then wouldn't it be smarter to just stab him? It would have been less work and not much less obvious.

But Hanyuu has a sword, so stabbing would have made her more suspicious.

[friendboned]

NEITHER OF THEM!!

[Papyrus is helping]

[herbgrace]

It has to be someone...

[friendboned]

DOES IT?!

[herbgrace]

Yes. Those are the rules. Someone on the suspect list killed him.

[dereban]

[ Dryly: ]

Really?

[detanimetion]

MAYBE IT'S BOTH!! [Undyne is also helping]
