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.

[ Owain is watching the time tick down, and he knows that they're not any closer to coming to a conclusion on who the mafia might be, but after remembering what happened last week...

He coughs loudly, trying to get everyone's attention ]

We're running out of time and we all know that we need to vote, we have no choice in that matter at all. After what happened last week, we can't just keep spreading our votes out across everyone here. That won't help us at all. We need to narrow down our list and only vote among those names. That has to be our best chance at even getting close to getting any of the mafia out in this game.

[jumpedtheshark]

I agree. Last time... we plain can't have a repeat of last time.

[Last time was a mess.]

[swordhandled]

It was a mess... if that missing vote wasn't found, then it would have been a six-way tie.

We can't repeat that.

[jumpedtheshark]

Yeah... should we take volunteers like was suggested last time or-

[And then Akira drops that bombshell and Tsumugi's attention shifts there. Well... guess they won't need volunteers.]

[swordhandled]

This... makes things easier.

[jumpedtheshark]

It... does, yeah.

[swordhandled]

Not that we wanted things to turn out this way.

[jumpedtheshark]

Well... the goal was to find the killer.

[Or... whoever was possessed by the killer. It just turned out to be someone most people would rather not lose.]

[swordhandled]

And it looks as though we did.

[jumpedtheshark]

Not in a good way. Kurusu-kun... he's really reckless, huh?

[Painting a target on himself like that...]

[swordhandled]

Recklesss, but he cares about his friends.

[jumpedtheshark]

Yeah...

[A sigh. Still. If he's a detective role, he's potentially crippling the town by outing himself like this.]

He's definitely a protagonist type of person...

[swordhandled]

Truly a hero.

[theycallhimmrpchan]

[He quietly nods, he hates it - but he's not sure if the group would survive another tie like that]

[swordhandled]

[ He hates it just as much as you do Ryoga ]

We should--

[ and then the bomb dropped ] Or... not.
