TRIAL TWO

[mayorityvote]

TRIAL

Once again, the investigations conclude -- though they're more ponderous this time, burdened by the number and knowledge of additional deaths, and the awareness that there's limited means of dealing with them -- and once again the ducks gather everyone at the back of the JojaMart along with Makima's wagon, Adela's quiet, the pile of evidence.

Everyone trundles into the loading bay, which isn't all that much livelier than before, penned in by stacks of shelves and crating; but at least it's functional, overly well-lit and there's tea to while away the time discussing murders and mayhem.

As the loading bay door slides closed, you're left with a wagonful of evidence, a double handful of murders and the knowledge that time is ticking down -- for everyone.

(( OOC: Welcome to trial: the sequel! You'll have 7 hours (until 8 PM EST/5 PM PST) to vote one (1) person guilty of murder. As this is scapegoat style, a correct vote is not necessary. Please remember to vote unless otherwise discussed with the mods, as that is our AC for this game. ))

Forget it. Educational isn't really my cup of tea, yo.

[revelate]

There is combat as well.

[two men ""fighting"" in a tent is combat]

[linearcrash]

Huh? Why didn't you lead with that? [ Okay, now he's interested ]

[faildeus]

[ he's not even going to bother correcting this because he is not sure what's in noah's head if he thinks two men fucking is combat. ]

[duckinghell]

[The popcorn duck suddenly chokes on its corn and starts coughing, randomly.]

[liberazoth]

Love and combat?

[ is this some sort of drama about warring nations or something ... can love bloom on the battlefield... ]

[driftingknight]

Such a thing is not unusual in wars.

[Of course, given that he hasn't seen the movie...]

[liberazoth]

Oh. So maybe they were either comrades on the same side, or ...

[ actually, noah said it was complicated, so maybe- ]

Someone ... fell in love with someone on the other side of the war?

[ this is the worst brokeback mountain fanfiction. they have zero idea. ]

[revengier]

[ He sighs. ]

They were two cowboys working together, and they fell in love.

[linearcrash]

Huh? You're watching cows fall in love?

[revengier]

[ GOODBYE ]

No. They were men who herd cattle. Ranch hands.

[linearcrash]

[ Ranch hands??? ]

So what was educational about it?

[revengier]

[ HELP ]

Probably the theme of love and how painful it can be.

[linearcrash]

[ Unsure if he wants to see now ]

Is it even worth seeing?

[revengier]

It was a good film, but I don't know if you would enjoy it.

[driftingknight]

[He nods!]

I've seen as much happen. Granted, it doesn't tend to have a happy ending, but perhaps that was the point of the movie?

[liberazoth]

[ well he would continue on with this tack except kurapika has intervened so

hoorah they know a little more about brokeback mountain now. ]
