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

[it's unfortunately very, very real and he's going to wrap her arms around her to keep her from looking at the aftermath.

... though he's definitely just staring at it himself.]

[accessorytomurder]

[She clutches at him, fingers knotted and shaking in the back of his coat.]

Oh God... Oh, God... R-Rin-ch...an...

[cw_suicide]

[it really is just confirmation-bias of Things He Wants Get Taken Away because literally all parties here were people he... liked?

slowly starting to move to leave the area, taking Hitoka with him.]

C'mon...

[accessorytomurder]

[She moves with him, wiping her face with one hand and clinging to him with the other.]
