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.

"Today the victim is Katsuki Bakugou. Solve it."

Without even bothering to taunt or be as antagonistic as usual, he waves the gavel. Five small photos appear on the podiums.

            

"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."

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.

[1940 poor boy here]

[odasaku]

Authors have to research a lot.

[ a knowing nod!!!!!!! ]

[burgerprince]

I'll make sure to educate you.

[You POOR SOUL]

[streetwolf]

If this involves sitting at a desk I ain't doing it. Been fine without that shit before and don't need it now.

[too cool for school]

[protectandselfserve]

It can involve sitting on the couch or in a nice chair, actually.

[streetwolf]

Uh-huh. Right. That's why Amanda's English lessons involve twenty kids at desks.

[He doesn't know what cinema is at all, but if it involves educating...]

[protectandselfserve]

It's more like going to the theater, actually.

[streetwolf]

[That seems to actually hit something, or he tilts his head.]

Like a singer on stage type of thing?

[protectandselfserve]

Or a play of some kind! Honestly, I wouldn't say most movies are educational in intent, even if you can learn things from them.

[streetwolf]

Oh, that sounds expensive. [Interest lost.]

[protectandselfserve]

Wellll, seeing them in theaters can be, but you used to be able to rent them for a pretty small fee. This town's old-fashioned enough that a video rental store might show up sooner or later.

[streetwolf]

...The fuck is video?

[odasaku]

Moving pictures.
