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.

[Ughh he likes you too. So he'll try.]

...I don't think I have. There's been a few close calls but normally everyone just runs away when they know they're beat.

[thanks salt buddy... she doesn't really think he did it anyway, but might as well follow up just for clarity's sake.]

And you're mostly talking about street fights, right? Have you ever fought someone as strong as Bakugou-san?
streetwolf: (1947 VN - wow)

Kinda hard to rank it when the kid could explode shit... [But he scratches his head to think.]

I guess Miguel? He was quick and had a gun, that lasted a while...Only reason we're both alive is cause the bosses wanted to settle things themselves.
pecker: (tee hee)

So it would be fair to say you couldn't take him for that long...
streetwolf: (1947 Manga - I can help too)

[He opens his mouth likes he's going to argue that. But huffs instead.]

...Like I said earlier, just shooting him would have been easier.
pecker: (juseki)

Well... is there another way of looking at this? That would make what all of this was easier for someone...
streetwolf: (1947 - manga crashing)

[personal profile] streetwolf 2018-10-20 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh...What? You mean like if that wasn't something they could do?

[He's not all that bright.]
pecker: (strength drained)

[Neither is she, frankly.]

Uhhh.... I'm sorry. I meant looking at people's abilities and seeing if there is a way doing it this way would be easier for one of them in particular, but I'm drawing a blank.
streetwolf: (1947 - manga Aaaaaa)

Thank fuck for that. I'm beginning to feel like an idiot here.

[They'll just commiserate. ]
