Week 7 - Trial

Week 7: Trial

When everyone arrives at the trial room, the tribunes are already filled with townspeople. Until now, the public had been so angry, waiting to see what the outsiders would do. Now they're calmer. Not indifferent, just waiting to see what will happen.

There are so few of you left. So few people, surrounded by a town that once hated you, and now don't know what to think. Will this trial change their opinions of you again?

Maybe that doesn't matter. You're here to solve a murder, after all.

"Today the victim is Kinzie Kensington. This may be the last chance any of you get the chance to earn a medal. Let's see if this culprit gets away with it successfully."

You receive your list of suspects. Five small photos appear on the podiums.

            

"When it's time, you shall cast your vote. It has been a while since there was one culprit."

The trial room went completely silent, all the visitors can feel the attentive stares of the townspeople gathered to watch. It's up to them now to find the culprit.

Let the trial begin.

[for a moment there, Osomatsu was getting a little worried. he doesn't have anything that could help them defeat Sarge. no weapons, no skills, no magic powers...

but this? this is worse!]

I'm not voting for you, either.

[marmoron]

I'm not gonna tell you how to vote, Osomatsu. But you shouldn't vote against the collective interests of the group.

[relieable]

Uh, to me it sounds like no one wants to vote for you, or Bolin. What do you think you're doing, trying to be a martyr, here? Aren't you, like, our leader? Don't you have to protect Natalie?

[marmoron]

[That actually just takes him aback for a second like...]

...What do you mean I'm the leader? I'm not trying to lead anyone, alright?

[HE'S REALLY BAD AT IT ACTUALLY?]

I just want all of us to be able to go home.

[relieable]

[from one red-clad hot-blooded failure leader to another]

So do I! But that probably won't happen without you.

[marmoron]

[...]

I don't know what you're talking about, alright? You need to start believing in yourself more.

[relieable]

[ah. that... shuts him up. but only for a second.

he's considering throwing that Certain Object at your head, now, Keith. you've given him too much power]

Yeah, well, maybe you should, too.

[marmoron]

[DO IT.

But honestly that does get Keith to shut up for a second, too.]

I'm not giving up, you know. I don't plan on staying dead. Got a busy life ahead of me.

[relieable]

...I don't know how anything works here anymore.

[what with the Sergeant bringing people back to life, and those on the other side conversing with them]

Do you really think you'd be able to come back? Alive?

[marmoron]

[Is he sure? No. Very few things in the world are certain, in the end. But...]

I'm pretty damn stubborn.

[relieable]

Yeah. Yeah, you are.

[but you're important to Natalie, he doesn't say out loud. he's finally going to vote now]

[tuffguy]

I, for one, vote Keith our fearless leader.

Ergo, we shouldn't lose him.

[marmoron]

[Okay. That's just fucking embarrassing and he's just going to pretend that he didn't hear this.]
