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. ))

That...?

[It feels so irrelevant now, but-]

Yes.

[moonblades]

[She wonders if it is relevant, after all, even if only in his love for his friends.]

Could that have been why...? Do you really not remember?

[don't trust your roommates or your friends, man.]

[...]

They say I'm cursed. That everyone who gets involved with me experiences misfortune, one by one.

[That, he's always known. That makes love so painful. He holds his head in his hand.]

...I didn't think he could reach me, here.

[moonblades]

[It's hard to believe that, too, especially when they've had other abilities taken away from them. What does Mio really know about curses or alternate selves, though? She can't say how it works: She doesn't know anything about him, either, except the warmth and appreciation she'd formed here.]

Is it really a curse? Could you...or he...just have been afraid?
