WEEK 2 - TRIAL

[foundationmods]

TRIAL

The morning seemed so far away yesterday - yet, it also seems too soon when morning comes and you are all yet again ushered to the third floor by The Lady. The Captain is there, in all of his....glory? It's hard to tell.

The doors close, and he speaks up, this time reclining on one of the couches in the room.

"You know the drill - Since one of you have died during the game, it's your responsibility to try and vote someone out. You have six hours to talk about it, but then-"

He taps on a box on the coffee table in front of him, labeled 'VOTES'.

"-you'll have to put in your vote so someone can be punished. You all saw what happens when you refuse to play, right?"

He leans back, placing his hands behind his head.

"So get to it."

As he says that, music begins to play in the room...


VICTIM: YOSHI NANASE

27 GUESTS REMAIN.

[Ah.]

Well. I tried.

[dereban]

[ if she's allowed

sticking a "you tried" sticker onto his arm ]

[foundationmods]

[Eventually, the puppy slows down....

And goes to The Captain, landing on his belly and falling asleep.

Puppy done for the trial.]

[escardos]

It was a good shot!

[ thumbs up from flat! ]

[purrtagonist]

[just pats his shoulder comfortingly]

[latebluemer]

That's not a bad train of thought, though. Something is obviously up with the killer and that puppy.

[moonlightbeast]

[That is actually a good line of thought.]

We know one of the mafia is a ghost-dog, and this puppy seems to be at least partially ghost...

...do you think the ghost-dog mafia had puppies?

[escardos]

Don't dogs usually give birth to more than one puppy though?

[moonlightbeast]

That just means there could be more of them around here.

What do you think, Flat-san? Think we're infested with ghost-puppies?

[escardos]

I don't know??? But if there are, then we need a better diet for them! No eating people!

[moonlightbeast]

Agreed, but what would a ghost-dog even eat?

[thejusticewagon]

...also, um, wouldn't we kinda notice if someone was maybe gonna have puppies... or a puppy...

[xenoqueen]

Not...necessarily.

[THINKS BACK TO THE CHESTBURSTER]

[thejusticewagon]

........do I want to know.........

[latebluemer]

Um, do we know how old that puppy is?

[How did they get here oh my god.]

[escardos]

I mean it showed up this week so...probably not that old? [ he's not a puppy expert sorry ]

[xenoqueen]

Maybe it saw a big dog and went to go and say hi.

[Joking, but really--] That being said, either the puppy followed the killer to the crime scene, or the puppy wandered in afterwards.

[duskhound]

...The jacket on the body was closed, right? That should have stopped the puppy from eating it... At least theoretically...

[But then, the puppy just went through a door, so I'm not sure anymore...]

[latebluemer]

I think it might be important. When the killer and the puppy met up.

[justfists]

Actually...

It's strange, but Flat-san's reaction to the puppy seemed over the top to the rest of you. Though after it failed to find the killer, he relaxed.

Doesn't that seem strange?

[escardos]

Have you seen a puppy pass through the walls?

[justfists]

... There are ghosts here.

[what's ur point]

And I am terrified of ghosts.

[xenoqueen]

It is strange. But didn't he say that he'd been playing...craftmine with Yoshi or something?

[Not saying it isn't him, but. Y'know, consider all realms of possibility.]

[latebluemer]

... I just thought Escardos-san was a very over the top person.

[Just saiyan.]

[relentlesslyonwards]

Well... maybe? But he's pretty eccentric too, so I don't think it's that unusual a reaction. [Who knows what the fuck runs through Flat's mind at times...]
