MOCK ROUND - WEEK 2 TRIAL

It was noon on Friday.

No matter where they were, no matter what they were doing...the moment the chimes rang out through the hall, they felt a change.

The world began to expand, as they felt themselves leaving the world they were on, and towards the world they'd experienced once before. 🗈

Perhaps on another plane, in another place, someone else heard music as they gazed upon the proceedings.

Their forms, just like before, were different now. This was less shocking than it was last time, and yet...

...There was a deep silence in the room, one that no one wanted to break. It was the faint tension in the air, like the moments before a race or a competition begins.

Only this time....this was the last time they would be competing. This was the final week...and the final chance they had at securing their wishes - while denying someone theirs.

...Just a little more to go.

Try to be more careful this time, Takashi.

[Seriously.]

I went by the garden shed after you, Jack, and I searched my room. The ground right outside was wet and muddied, and there was... I think it was a human's footprint? No shoes. Weird... Indent in the ground... I checked the inside but found nothing except a bucket full of water and a dented trowel... Not sure if that last thing was actually used, but still.

Heh, sorry you all don't get to see me strung up again.

[Don't sound so disappointed, Takashi]

It's fine, really.

It was fun watching you.

I haven't had a fight where I actually got seriously hurt in a long time.

Are you sure you're not the one disappointed?

I had my fun~

Probably for the best... that looked pretty painful.

No lasting damage, so I managed.

Truly a pity. It was a good show, Takashi.

[And a useful one! Important.]

Maybe the bucket was used to catch her blood?

I'm not sure, I didn't get a good look at it.

The indent in the ground is probably where we get the dented trowel.

Possibly. I get the feeling we'd have to ask the witch about that... Normally.

[ A nod...

... Then, after a moment: ]

Speaking of footprints, that Erika girl asked to see everyone else's feet, right? Did anyone ever see hers?

[ In fact. . . ]

Isn't it weird that she stayed hidden only until it was time for her to come out and play the Super Helpful detective?

She said she was sulking after her argument with our hostess.

You've gotta admit that'd be an easy excuse to toss together.

It might be, but she seems to be one of those prideful types. I think it was a lot for her to admit it.

She seemed a little eccentric from her big showdown earlier on, so I wouldn't be surprised if that was how she usually did things.

[ That's just his take on it, anyway.

Also ig he's standing here wearing a black blindfold and black leather coat now, it's fine. ]

Yes... She made quite a fuss didn't she.

She really did, I thought she was going to be out for the count for the entire week after that tantrum.

[ Hah. ]

Perhaps she is a girl with few hobbies.

[You would know, wouldn't you, Luna.]

Maybe...

[ . . . ]

What do hobbies have to do with that?
