Week 3 - Trial
Week 3: Trial
April 20th. It was now time for the trial.
When everyone arrives at the trial room, the tribunes are already filled with townspeople. Compared to last week, there's less morbid curiosity and more quiet outrage. Everyone's glaring at the visitors while they enter the courtroom.
The number of podiums draped in black has increased dramatically. Nine's, Mako's, Sandalphon's, and Bakugou's have joined Moloch's, raising the number to five. That's one sixth of the available podiums. How many more will be covered in black velvet before these two months end?
Once everyone is at the right podium, the Sergeant bangs his gavel. He doesn't seem to be in better mood than before.
Without even bothering to taunt or be as antagonistic as usual, he waves the gavel. Five small photos appear on the podiums.
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.

"Today the victim is Katsuki Bakugou. Solve it."
"When it's time, you shall cast your vote. Write it on paper or put the photo inside the slot, I don't really care about how you do it. What matters is that you actually do it. Start your discussion."
[Welcome to the trial! Please remember to cash your votes here!. Your deadline is 8:00 PM EST. Good luck!]

I'm the one who found the body. It was in the... [Oh, is that what it's called? Thanks Franciscus.] immersion font, face up, eyes closed at the very bottom.
[A pause. Time to recall this as best as possible.]
He was at the center of the pool, and his skin was pale. I didn't see any signs of bloating, but his extremities were turning white and wrinkly. There was a little blood near his nose and mouth, and some froth on his lips... I noticed a wound on his chest, but beyond that, I had to pull him out of the pool.
[Which was gross. You're all welcome.]
After I got him out, I was able to notice a few more things. Rigor mortis hadn't completely set in yet. The stab wound on his chest wasn't particularly small, but it didn't look like it could have been deep enough to be fatal. It didn't exactly look like a knife wound, either...
There was also a blunt wound on the back of his head, but that might have been from hitting the rim like Mr. Franciscus said.

Had a look around the rest of the graveyard, there were some marks in the mud. Like something was pressed into it. There was one by the messed up grave, then a bunch of others a few feet away. Looked kind of like there was some movement, and some of the indents were a little bigger than others.
[Then, an exasperated pause.]
Of course with all the rain, it's not clear how big the marks were to start with.

[look at all the drama that goes into this. the roll of her eyes. the unnecessary slouch back. clarisse is a trained killer and a fucking savage and all but she is also a seventeen-year-old girl. she has MASTERED the teenage theatrics of it all.]
Surprised it took as many weeks as it did—Whatever! This wasn't me. What do you want.

STRIP SEARCH
[Unlike the past two times, Millium doesn't even sound happy about it now.]
Bakugou fought back. There's a non-zero chance someone's got injuries, here.
I'll check the girls, but I'm gonna need a guy.

Still, she's not the type to raise her voice, so when she does insert her opinion, it's pretty level and shy. ]
Everyone's tense, I understand that, but... shouldn't we maybe think about what happened, before we decide who was capable of doing it?
We know there was a fight and the wall of the church got blown up, but... what came first? Who went where? How did Bakugou-kun die...? There's so many questions and all the bad blood is just.... it's distracting us, isn't it?
[ Nobody may know, but for Cian's standards this is the closest thing to an angry outburst. ]
no subject
After that, best guess is the fight started in the graveyard and progressed to the Chapel.

kinda catherd?
[For the most part Hawks has been quiet until now, but time to get this back on track. Bakugou deserves that much.]
You all agree that Bakugou is skilled at hand to hand combat. He'd be hard to get very close to, unless the assailant is also an expert at it. But he has his quirk. He could still create explosions, so he's now essentially a major hazard to get within ten feet of, even with high physical combat skills.
[A pause to let that sink in]
Someone would have to be very good physically and at a distance to have given Bakugou enough trouble to ...end up like this.
