Week 3, Saturday

[foundationmods]

This time, when everyone files into the studio, they aren't escorted to their seats. Instead, they are sent to podiums up on the stage arrange in a semi-circle. Everyone can see each other, and everyone is also visible to the cameras. Off to stage right is a jury box with 12 prinnies in it, all in various states of 'fancy dress'. One is wearing a suit top, another a blouse, one a huge Colonial-era wig. To stage left at box 0 is Dazai's seat, where he will be spending most of the trial, but he will get up to move around at times. And in the very center is a picture of Aqua. Once everyone is in their spots, one of the prinnies will hit a gavel against the podium in front of it, signaling the start of the trial.

It's time to find Aqua's killer.

Funny, if you want to prove you are the killer, surely you would let me examine you more fully?

Polaris, that is a star in this world, is it not?

[oceanicbutterfly]

The North Star. It's located almost directly above Earth's north pole, so it's useful for navigation.

[darkova]

Ah, the navigation star. We had a similar one in Erion. The shining light, guiding the way home.

[visionem]

The north star.

[ In response to the first he's going to contract again to four starred form. That's an answer???????

No it's not Alcor. ]

[darkova]

I don't want to fight you, Alcor. But I will.

... and don't expect me to think you bounced on her with your... spike... things. The image a bit too much.

[visionem]

You may go ahead.

[ I mean at least you asked first Ingway. Also ignoring the last bit he's got a lot going on here. ]

[darkova]

...

Or I could just turn you into a frog and keep you chained up for a bit until you are more agreeable? We have over an hour until we must vote.

[visionem]

That would be a new experience.

[ He's never been a frog before? He can't smile as a !starbox but he does sound intrigued by it. ]

[darkova]

Would you like to? I wasn't fond of it at first, but even after returning to human form I found it more practical for some things.

[visionem]

Not currently.

[darkova]

...fair. That would be a bit awkward.
