[CONTINUE + 4] week 1 || act: indict

[foundationmods]

[Saturday dawns, bright and early again. No one comes to the Inn, but you feel compelled to go to the Core anyway.

It's as if you're forced to. As if....it's inescapable. Puppets, forced to dance where their strings lead.

You make the walk past everything, until you are directly in the Core, where some kind of whitish, rainbow-gleaming liquid can be seen below.

In this area, you are led to a wider platform that is still open to the liquid before, with the handrails in place - where there are some seats around, and....surrounded by a sea of entirely gray faces, no Monsters to be seen.

This...for all of you, it is a familiar sight.

It is a trial location.

You are here to find the killer...and convict one of your own, in a murder that makes no sense.

But you have no choice.

You can only forge ahead....and try to find out the truth.]

[le_mat]

Maybe either people connected to Atsushi it wanted to send a message to or one person each from each of our 'couples'?

[Or truples, in Dazai's case]

[oceanicbutterfly]

If that's what it is, I'm calling discrimination.

[le_mat]

I know right? It's not fair to us with people back home.

[oceanicbutterfly]

Not to mention the single people.

[...]

Do we have any single people?

[white_camellia]

How are we defining "single" in this case?

[She does have her team after all, even if she isn't dating any of them.]

[oceanicbutterfly]

Ah, I suppose you would count. It's particularly rude of the Entity to exclude you, in that case.

[white_camellia]

That being said... I assumed you were single as well? Are you not?

[I mean, you had to ask if we had any single people, after all.]

[oceanicbutterfly]

Not as it stands, no. Though we haven't seen much of each other lately.

[homeecspacecop]

We're single.

[oceanicbutterfly]

Oh, I suppose I just assumed...

[homeecspacecop]

Assumed what?

[oceanicbutterfly]

That you were in a relationship with someone.

[homeecspacecop]

No.

It would be nice but no one's ever been interested.

Here, I mean. There's a girl I end up with in my series, but that doesn't really mean anything for this me.

[oceanicbutterfly]

...ah.

I'm sorry.

[homeecspacecop]

It happens. Not everyone can be as popular as Ren.

[oceanicbutterfly]

Honestly, I'm not sure how that even works.

[romancekiller]

Yeah I would count as single too. [ her love life is a disaster okay ]

[oceanicbutterfly]

Ah.

[There are more of you than she expected?]

[romancekiller]

Is it that surprising?

[oceanicbutterfly]

A bit, but I'm starting to think I don't really understand enough to be surprised.

[romancekiller]

Yeah, I know what you mean— anyways I don't think I'm the sort of person that's meant for being in a relationship anyway. [because it always ends very tragically...]

[accessorytomurder]

[Excuse you sir, we are a quartet.]

What, like the true killer was romance? Or, um... do any of the clothes found seem like something any of them might wear? Maye... maybe it disguised itself, to lead him off.
