trial #3

DAY 6 (afternoon)
Complex Population: 27

At noon, the same tone from the morning rings out, and Judy's voice filters out over the intercom.

"Good afternoon, residents. As per Safety Protocol 6227-A, it is time to conduct a trial to bring justice for the victim. Please proceed to the courtroom on the first level."

Just as at night, if you don't go to the courtroom, you'll be treated to an electric shock of increasing strength until you go to the courtroom or are unconscious. Though considering the ominous penalty for not participating in a trial, you should likely just go rather than risk not voting because you've been knocked out by your own stubbornness... Once you're in the courtroom, you'll find that bottled water and light snacks are provided, but otherwise you'll have to bring anything else you may need.

As you come to your conclusions about who to vote for, you can step into the judgement theater to cast your vote at the terminal. You may change your vote as many times as you'd like, but at 7PM, your vote (or lack thereof) is locked in.

You have until 7PM to discuss and vote for who you think the murderer is.

So... I've heard we're supposed to be sharing votes beforehand so we don't get a repeat performance. Who is everyone voting for?

[ let him know if he's deda ]

I'm voting for Cici. Shijima should be doing the same. ♡

[Leo will be as well by virtue of Alice hauling him in there and using his hand to cast his vote so he doesn't get in trouble for not voting.]

That is correct.

[ she is apparently still selling her vote to alice for a bed. they are not even hiding this. ]

[ After listening to some votes coming in, he sighs. ]

... You shouldn't vote for Ciel.

Why not? Are you going to say something like "he's too young to be a killer"?

He's just a kid. I don't know if he's staff or not, but I'm not going to watch a kid die again based on nothing. And really? Y'all want to vote for Alvin too because of what Franziska said? Look where that got you.

Because I killed her so I know they didn't.

I rather we not split our votes again and cause another unfortunate tie. But I agree no matter what, we should be honest.

I'll be voting for Alvin, unless a better argument is presented. And if I'm wrong, I will take responsibility for it no matter how it may come.

I'm inclined to vote for Ciel, but I'm trying to weigh my options. You included, Adam.

[ GOD.... she's... so sorry. ]

Alice brought up some interesting points and since we all seem keen on pinning things back to our first trial...

[ That seems to be as much "evidence" they have. ]

I'm not happy with my vote. Doesn't sit well.

Who are you voting for, Adam? Don't pretend you're not going to vote.

Oh, I'm just going to vote for someone who's been a nuisance in the trials and who we'd be better off without. [ guess who alfendi ]

Ha, you're going to vote for me? I like your guts, loverboy.

[He grins.]

Come on, do something useful and at least try to get a staff member instead of throwing away your vote, moron.

And who are you voting for?

(no subject)

selfdenying - 2016-10-23 02:33 (UTC) - Expand

I am still trying to decide the best option, but I think... Alvin or Ciel.

Uh... Aaaalvin? Are we doing Alvin? I'm not super into watching a thirteen year old get murdered on a hunch tonight. Don't think my stomach could take it.

... Gotta agree on that one. Anyway, you guys really think a middle schooler could take on Franziska? She was crazy.

[ he hates voting at all, he hates that he's been dragged into yet another psychopath's game, but what else can he do... ]

Edited 2016-10-23 02:29 (UTC)

But her whip was left in the bedroom, was it not? I spoke with Veronica and we believe that there's a chance she was unconscious when she was killed. We didn't find any sign of struggles - the attack wounds were definitely not the usual, brutal ones. Inexperienced, I'd say.

I dunno. You guys said she looked like she got hit in a few places, right? Why wouldn't they just kill her right away if she was unconscious?

That's what I thought-- that she was killed when asleep or unconscious, rather than awake and fighting. Not that that says much about who did it, since anyone can kill someone who's caught unaware just about.

I wouldn't discount him just because he's young. Plenty of people as young as him have killed where I've come from, and Cici seems like a very resourceful person.

...but I guess if it's not normal for people that young to kill where you guys are from, I can see why you wouldn't want to believe it.

You gotta be kidding. Wherever you come from is messed up, then.

I agree with Alice, I've known young people to kill as well.

She was hardly crazy, you're just a coward.

Oh, shut up, gramps! What kind of normal person threatens strangers with a whip? They don't!

Out of our current options, I suppose... Alvin. Unless some new knowledge or suspect presents itself.

...leaning more towards Phantomhive among the three options presented so far.

[Dojima sighs]

But I'm not fully convinced. It's up in the air, really.
