RECORDING 15: THE FIFTH 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 - Ango, standing as firm and unyielding as ever, waiting for the time when the trial is scheduled to begin.

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.



VICTIMS: Battler Ushiromiya and Giovanni Potage
PEOPLE TO VOTE OUT: 2

He thinks he knows me because he read my memory a couple times.

[finalring]

So what does he mean then? About not being as 'clean as you present yourself?'

[eyeforai]

[Ugh. He looks like he really doesn't want to be explaining this, but.]

I don't remember anything beyond the past six years of my life. That means that I don't know if I might've been a criminal, or a killer or anything else before I lost my memories.

[finalring]

So you literally have no idea. That's... I'm sorry, Date.

[eyeforai]

[There's a small, frustrated sigh here, although it's less towards Romani than just everything else.]

You don't need to apologize. It's not something you can do anything about, anyway.

[cw_suicide]

Actually... Date-san, your eye is a prosthetic, isn't it? You said you didn't have magic earlier, so it's mechanical, isn't it?

[eyeforai]

[Squints at him suspiciously.]

...How'd you know that? [Well, he'll shake his head.] But yeah, it is. I can see out of it and everything.

[cw_suicide]

Hikage said something about your eye, so...

[logical thinking. also Tages' notes on Date that they found]

But it's hard-wired in, right? Meaning you can't easily take it out?

[eyeforai]

[Tages' airing out all his dirty secrets...!]

...I can. [Do. Do you want him to take it out or.]

[cw_suicide]

It's not something you can remotely move around, though, is it?

... this is just an elimination thing since. Eyes are about the size of a golf ball, aren't they?

[eyeforai]

[...Dazai what the fuck is he hearing right now.]

...I can't control it when it's outside my eye socket, if that's what you're asking.

[cw_suicide]

[look, Date's the one with the bullshit scifi gun, okay?!]

Yep, that was the long and short of it. If you'd like to provide a demonstration, that's fine.

cw: eyes out of sockets?? idk

[eyeforai]

[It's a scifi gun but its chambers are definitely not big enough to hold a golf ball!! Or an eyeball, rather.

But fine he'll just. God. He'll take off his gloves and carefully pop his left eye out of his socket. It's an eyeball, and it looks artificial but there's no wiring or anything sticking out. Needless to say, it doesn't move around when it's sitting in his palm.]

Happy?

[cw_suicide]

Yep.

Good job. We've defeated part two of Hikage-kun's frame-job.

[eyeforai]

I really don't know what that asshole has against me.

[punching him in the face probably factored in, but what is self-awareness]

[kaliedoscopes]

[ He's still over here laughing and therefore being useless. ]

[reanimania]

[ if he wasn't still crying somewhere right now he'd think that was pretty cool and would want to look at it but rip ]
