RECORDING 6: THE SECOND 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 - Olympia, staring balefully at you in all of her robotic glory.

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: JACK MORRISON
PEOPLE TO VOTE OUT: 1

WEEK 2 VOTING

We have magic users. That's—I don't even know the limits of that. I'd have run as soon as he started getting the burns on his skin...

[notbymyside]

That is a point too. Whoever did this should have immediately run for help.

...unless...what if they were a healer themselves?

[tsunderine]

...If they were a healer and tried to heal their mistakes, realized it didn't work, they might have called it a 'lost cause', as much as I'd hate to say it.

[notbymyside]

That seems like the most likely possibility. If the killer tried to save Jack and failed, they had no reason to go looking for help.

[accessorytomurder]

That's... an unfortunate option. And, um, paired with the size of the footprints...

[Well, it would certainly narrow down the list of suspects, wouldn't it?]

...going by what Olympia said to Rosa-san... even if they were normally the forthright or honest type, telling everyone immediately might not have been an option available to them.

[notbymyside]

...actually, we should probably narrow down the suspect pool with those shoes. Yachi, do you want to call for a shoe size inspection?

[accessorytomurder]

G-Good idea. I'll get on that.

[And she does.]

[finalring]

Considering how fast acting the plant took root in his stomach, it's likely that they didn't have a chance to save him before the roots tore through his internal organs.

[accessorytomurder]

I see...

[Poor Jack...]
