WEEK 3 TRIAL

It was noon on Saturday.

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 another, much larger world...🗈



...As always, the courtroom was there - along with the audience, watching, waiting for the entertainment before them.

The Witch - Nirrti - was there, sitting in the most important place, watching all of them with a sharp, cruel gaze, a smile of pure delight on her face.

Watanuki was also there, but he merely lounged in the back behind them, smoking a kiseru pipe in silence.
...It seemed as if he was content to watch - that he had to watch - as part of the rules of the game.

There was no music to be heard, but... perhaps on another plane, in another place, someone else heard music as they gazed upon the proceedings.

Again, their forms had changed - perhaps into something different than last time, but...still a change, no matter how dramatic or inconsequential it was.

...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.

They had found the truth last time....but now, two people had died.
Was it possible for them to find the culprit this time?
A culprit that....had...

No, it had to be.

For the sake of the dead...and the sake of them all.

It's not a matter of control, exactly. The issue is humans projecting their ideas into situations where they don't apply. A tiger isn't a house cat, even if it looks similar, and shouldn't be treated as one. It's not that Mary Poppins is likely to turn on humanity, but rather, that you shouldn't assume that means her way of thinking is like that of a "good" human. She has her own motives for what she does.

Shouldn't you know all this, anyway?

Oh yeah? And what motive does Mary Poppins have, exactly? Do you even believe any of this, or are you just trying to be contrary?

How would I know her motives? I've never met her.

Then read a book sometime.
