TRIAL TWO

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. ))

Are we certain that these concoctions need to be drunk to take effect?

[there are poisons that can work on contact and inhalation, after all.]

I haven't tried it myself, but it's very possible that they don't need to be.

[ He pauses. ]

I didn't smell whatever blue liquid was in the flask just in case it worked via inhalation.

[hmm.]

Well, if we ever need to test anything, then it's convenient that they've provided us with more animals than we could possibly rear.

[but that seems to be a moot point now with shinobu's whole thing!!]

You have a point. Something to keep in mind, I suppose.

[ Though he'll probably forget about all of that in like, five seconds— ]
