week 4 - trial; day 2

[vicedirector]

seven vices case 4 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 6PM, the trial will adjourn, after which everyone is expected to have cast their votes. >Discuss? victim   suspects      VOTING cast setting VOTING TENTATIVELY CLOSES AT MIDNIGHT CST.

[ thanks hinat you're taking a proverbial bullet here ]

...Of course.

[ Break mumbles, since he's definitely sulking. Even if he was the one to suggest it today, he still super doesn't want to do this...

But he starts to take off his clothes, though it's clear as he starts to do so that his over-sized coat is definitely to hide how dang skinny he is. In fact, as he actually takes off his shirt, it's unhealthily so. Still, even if he's skinny enough to look unhealthy, there's still a fair amount of muscle, since he does practice swordsmanship. There's also a tattoo on the left side of his chest, as noted on his profile.

Once he's stripped down to his underwear, his face is rather red since this is mortifying, but there are no new wounds on his body. He has several long, thin scars on his torso especially, but they're all old. At least he's not wrinkly, since he's eternally 24 in physical age, but. He's still not a looker. Sorry that you got stuck with this, Hinata.

(Also, if he's especially dedicated/thorough, there's definitely still small traces of blue and green glitter in his left eye socket. Thanks, Undyne and Clover.)

There's nothing in his pockets or in the linings of his clothing. ]

[It's what he gets for becoming friends with the hot alien, and therefore not being permitted to strip him.

Except Break, dude, please eat a sandwich or two?? What's Wrong with you. How can someone this sickly-looking cause poor Gilbert so much pain.

If Hinata has to do this, he is going to be thorough, walking around Break to take in the scars and putting his hands through the pockets and running his hands over the clothes to check for anything that might be out of place in any of the fabric. That... sure is some glitter in his eye socket, too, that is so disgusting. Also--]

Um... I'm really, really sorry, but... your underwear...

[Who's more embarrassed, Hinata or Break. The realest q]

[crazily]

[ it's break. break feels like it's definitely break, which is why his expression goes completely flat. ]

...Everything else I understand, but is that really necessary?

[hopefragment]

You could be hiding something in your underwear... look, I don't want to do it either.

[crazily]

What could I possibly be hiding there?

[ Break may be okay with the strip searches, but you can't collect his underwear Hinata!! You're not that good of a friend!! ]

[hopefragment]

I don't know! But I want to be thorough and make sure we have every piece of evidence possible!

[HE'S GOING TO GIVE THEM BACK WHEN HE'S DONE, GOD. PANTIES WITHOUT FRIENDSHIP MEAN NOTHING AT ALL]

[crazily]

[ There is a silence. It's a very long, awkward silence. Break seems to consider this, but even if he's incredibly reluctant, he takes off his underwear. It's probably even like horribly Victorian underwear too, so you're just hurting yourself here, Hinata.

Because there's nothing. Just his dick.

Break's expression at least says one thing clearly. We will never speak of this again. ]

[hopefragment]

[We will absolutely never speak of this again. With no evidence in the underwear, and nothing other than Break's dick, Hinata just silently hands the underwear back. And the rest of his clothes, too.]

Looks like you're clear... thanks.

[crazily]

[ Break is approximately making this face as he gets dressed again, but otherwise he says nothing. This never happened. Let's forget it. He doesn't want to think about how someone just saw him buttass naked at all. ]
