RECORDING 3: THE FIRST TRIAL

[foundationmods]

The worst has happened... and now you're all here, in the living room where you first met Todd. As all of you enter, the Vessel is there - glowering at all of you, still missing the arm Dazai shorn from him with his touch.

On one of the tables away from the center is a small enclosed box entitled 'VOTES', with slips of paper nearby and a pen. It's sufficiently away from what will be the 'main' action, but not enough to really give anyone complete privacy as they vote.

Once everyone is inside, the doors automatically shut and lock themselves, leaving you trapped in here with the Vessel...and each other.

One of you is a murderer...however, in this game, the guilty do not need to be voted out. As long as there are enough people voted out that matches the victims...then it will be accepted.

...But, can you really let someone get away with murder...?

The choice...is up to you.

VICTIM: OLYMPIA
PEOPLE TO VOTE OUT: 1

WEEK 1 VOTING

...Wait, if Minamimoto's sigil revives him... and the culprit "doesn't care" about being caught... and the culprit will die...

[OH BOY THIS SURE FUCKING SOUNDS FAMILIAR!! HE HATES IT!!]

[tangentlion]

[Still laughing, Sho grabs Battler around his neck and drags him into the middle of the room]

Well... I guess that equation ran its course. It sure was fun to see you obtuse angles trip over yourselves, but let's REALLY get calculating!!

4/4 DONE

[tangentlion]

[Sho pulls a small, can shaped object out of his pocket and holds it threateningly]

Pop quiz, radians! What do you think this is?!

[deadanimemom]

[Shit.]

try 2 at ping

[finalring]

........No.

[ romani takes a step forward, face pale ]

Y-You can't do that!

[ looking for todd? hello? ] Is this allowed?!

[zweivoltage]

You Cowardly Bastard!

[accessorytomurder]

...a battery strong enough to power a robot as sophisticated as Olympia. Isn't it?

[Nobody had mentioned a power source strong enough, in the investigations.]

[noneforall]

Judging by your M.O. so far, it's probably a bomb?

[He's standing well clear of this and just kind of watching curiously. His shield has been up since Todd appeared, by the way.]

[reanimania]

Was that a self-destruct mechanism??

[boardreversal]

[YEAH.

THAT...SURE IS A THING, ISN'T IT.

He's obviously trying to struggle out, but since he was taken by surprise - and Sho is, of course, a Reaper - it's going nowhere.]

You...! That can't be -!

[hitscans]

You need to calm down, now!

[lightreaching]

N-No! Let him go! Let Battler go! You absolute coward! You wretchedly craven!

[ghostricked]

Sho, no!

[He leaps from Marona's lap to confront him, stopping short so he won't kill Battler]

[oxidegreen]

[Of course he takes a hostage. Of course he does.]

I knew it...!

[golden_dream]

WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING WITH MY NEPHEW?!

[eyeforai]

Damn it...!

[Just going to pull out his gun and aim it at Sho because this is just what he do ig?!]

What the hell do you think you're doing?!

[notbymyside]

[OH HOW THE TURN TABLES]

[cw_suicide]

[... but this is the boring answer.]

How uninspired.

[kaliedoscopes]

[ Hikage's silent, drawing both his guns. Everyone else is doing all the shouting for him anyway. ]

[onemolife]

[ wtf sho ]

[sageking]

[ ... ]

Then I suppose we're sitting here through all of this to this mongrel's amusement, if anything.

[golden_dream]

...We can't kill him.
