RECORDING 9: THE THIRD TRIAL.

[foundationmods]

The worst has happened... and now you're all here, in the living room where all the trials so far have taken place. As all of you enter, the Vessel is there - Jack, looking expectant and as militaristic as ever.

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.

But this time...potentially, someone innocent...must die as well.

VICTIMS: FLAYN AND HAKU
PEOPLE TO VOTE OUT: 2

WEEK 3 VOTING

[....

He's going to reach out touch Romani's shoulder, not saying anything.]

[finalring]

....I'm sorry.

[ he's not doing too well today. ]

[boardreversal]

...It's alright, Romani-Sensei.

[Maybe it's not, but...he gives a smile, anyway.]

Even I....beyond Zabuza, I don't know what to do. I'll have to do something in the end, but...right now, I'm being a coward.

...But please, vote before we run out of time - no matter what it is. Okay?

[finalring]

[ that just....earns battler something that sounds between a wheeze and a laugh. if battler thinks he's being a coward, then what am i...?

god, he's so exhausted. ]

[boardreversal]

..I know. I know, Sensei.

[It's so...exhausting, in a way he still isn't used to. He actually kind of wants to go back, to be able to try and argue there's a secret person instead of being forced to suspect everyone and then choose an innocent person to die.

But...he can't. So all he can do...is try to console people.]
