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.

Superhuman senses, too. I'm good at that kind of stuff, sure, but I'm only human.

[you can see how much she actively, absolutely LOATHES saying ANYTHING that puts down her own skills even a LITTLE]

Jealous?

[Don't mind him enjoying this.]

I'm not denying that I fit the bill too. You might not like it, I might not like it, but I do fit. The problem is, I think you did it.
snideper: ('cause if i told the truth)

I think I'm the easiest person for you to pin this on because out of everyone, my skill set is most similar to yours.

I haven't been sure who did it, and I honestly don't really care, but you're not making yourself look great.
unfashionably: (a side-eye sting)

I think you'll pin the blame on any one of the people on that list, no matter who it is. But I don't think you're going to confess either, no matter what anyone says to you or how hard they point.
snideper: (i would always be free)

I'm not confessing because I didn't do it. I'm not gonna pretend like I care who did, but it wasn't me!
unfashionably: (a sad sting)

Sorry, but... I don't believe you.
snideper: (come in misery where you can seem)

You're putting on enough appearances. The phony "apology" isn't necessary.
unfashionably: (a sad sting)

I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it.

S'not worth arguing with her.

She's made up her mind, so it doesn't matter how much sense anything you say makes from here.
