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.

IT'S NOT A FARCE!

[He doesn't yell it at the top of his lungs - but he does go over and grab Silver by the shoulders.]

We are still being watched! Do you truly believe - that after this [wildly gesturing to the whole of the trial] that we have no hope? That even though we failed to prevent a murder, even if we fight, we are still trying to find the truth no matter how painful it ultimately is - are you saying that's worthless?!

I have faced a losing battle before, and this is not it!

[Silver has been floating above his podium, though whether he's aware of that fact or not is up for debate. He's still easily within reach to be grabbed, though, and it seems the touch is enough to just...

make him slump completely.

The stress of the week, this trial, the impending doom of not only his own death but everyone else, the guilt of failing...

It's too much to take, and Silver breaks down, sobbing]

I can't....


I can't do this.....
