Week 5 - Trial

Week 5: Trial

      

Last time it was at dawn. Now it's at sunset. The Sergeant gave everyone plenty of time to investigate and gather evidence, and now that everyone entered the courtroom, he slammed his gavel.

"I can sense a few of you are feeling rather hostile. Remember you're in a courtroom, and you're being watched by everyone in town"

People's opinions of the visitors are already very low, but there's no need to feed them further with a brawl in the courtroom -- or so the Sergeant thinks. There are more podiums draped in black now. Five more people died, seventeen people are alive. How many will be left once the trial is over?

"This time we have three victims in total. Millium Orion, Cian Reikado, and Azura were the unfortunate victims last night, and now you shall debate and decide who is responsible for this.

These are your suspects. Vote for as many as you think are responsible for these crimes"

            

Let the trial begin.

[ He raises an eyebrow. ] So this is the first time you've spent the night in someone else's company since you've been here?

[silvertongueheir]

Yes. Though I've had my Pokemon with me in my room since I got them back as well.

[amburere]

Convenient.

[unfashionably]

... All right, thanks for answering. I've got a couple of other questions, but I'll start with your Pokemon. Can you tell me more about them?

1/2

[silvertongueheir]

[Aw, nice, a chance to talk about his Pokemon.]

Gerard's quite strong, I admit. He's part Rock-type, after all, and he did show off his jaw strength during the variety show last week. He's capable of flight, and can carry one person with him in the air if necessary, though most of the time being unencumbered is better for him in battle. He can also control rocks, though only small ones here.

Hydrangea can make plants and flowers grow, though they can only create small sprouts while they're here. They can switch between their Sky and Land Formes, though they can only take on Sky Forme in sunlight. Most of their actual attacking abilities seem to be limited here as well.

2/2

[silvertongueheir]

But I would never order them to murder someone. Hydrangea is still young, and Gerard has a gentle heart. It's different in an actual fight, when there's no time to be careful and pull punches.

[odasaku]

It’s easy to say that. Harder to follow.

[quickpersuader]

Could you show us all of them, or did the Sergeant take them away from you in here?

[silvertongueheir]

He did. Just like he did with Keith's wolf.

Mods!

[quickpersuader]

Sergeant. Can we please see all of Mr. Franciscus' Pokémon to examine them as well?

[cartesio]

No. Just like Keith's rather charming wolf, no animals are allowed in the courtroom. Or Pokemon. Same principle.

[amburere]

Tell us what they are then.

[cartesio]

That I can do.

[In the center of the podiums there's a loud pop and then two projections appear, they're like holograms. They're both of Franciscus' Pokemon, unmoving and slowly rotating.

Projections for visual purposes only, yup!]

[quickpersuader]

...Franciscus mentioned one of them can use rocks. Do you have a way to project what that would look like so we can compare?
