week 5 - day 2 trial

[vicedirector]

seven vices case 5 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 ( voting closes at 10PM CST ) cast setting rulebook

OF COURSE YOU'RE SPECIAL, HUMAN!!

YOU.. DIDN'T NEED TO KILL SOMEONE TO PROVE THAT.... YOU COULD HAVE JUST ASKED ME!!

[Papyrus...]

Special enough to survive being stabbed by his claws if he realized I knew?

[Guess who is surprisingly cynical. This girl.]

[brawlhalla]

Probably not.

[ TBH...Cheshire was a combatant, and Lucy is less-so, isn't she? ]

Even if you'd called for help, I don't know that any of us would have made it in time.

[americanbeauty]

Exactly. I'm- I'm no stranger for fighting for my own life. I learned long ago not to rely on the help of anyone else.

[She doesn't sound proud. Just even more SAD.]

[brawlhalla]

If we could have helped you, we would have. But.. [ ... ] I think you're right. Someone was going to die in that kitchen. I'm glad you made the choice that it wasn't you, even if it we don't have a way to let you get away with it.

[ Short of like, killing someone else on the list but ]

Defending yourself from an attack is different from the other shit that people have done here.

[americanbeauty]

If he could have also survived the explosion it would have been ideal... I don't regret my actions though. It doesn't mean much now but thank you..

[Thank you, miss viking.]

[brawlhalla]

You shouldn't. Letting him kill you would have been stupid.

[ SO...she'll just casually leave her salty pre-vote as it was and not vote for you. it's not a lot but w/e ]

[americanbeauty]

[That actually brings out a small smile. At least no one is telling her straight up she should have just died. Thankfully.]

I thought so too.

[brawlhalla]

[ tbh astrid would not think much of anyone who did. LETTING SOMEONE KILL YOU IS DUMB?????????? the fact that defending yourself means you die anyway is also dumb.

she really, really hates this game. ]

You didn't do anything wrong. [ TBH CHESHIRE APPARENTLY HELLA DESERVED IT, EVEN ] ...and I'm sorry that probably won't save you. Is there anything...there's probably nothing I can do to help, but is there anything you want?

[americanbeauty]

I did choose the action that lead to his death. The game was right about that...

[Looks like the intention just doesn't matter if the intent to kill was there.]

I don't need anything... Just- Just make sure Clover is okay.

[She isn't sure how close the two of them were but that is pretty much her dying message to everyone]

[brawlhalla]

Yeah. But killing in self defense isn't wrong.

[ SAYS THE VIKING. WHO HAS DONE THAT. ]

...And okay. You got it.

[friendboned]

[Well, this one is an Optimistic Moron (tm)]

YES! THAT SPECIAL.... AND YOU COULD HAVE CALLED FOR MY HELP!!!

I WOULD HAVE SAVED YOU.
