WEEK 3 - 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....wait, no, he's asleep.

The doors close, and...nothing happens. There's still the box labeled 'VOTES' in his lap on the couch, but...

On the table is a letter, that reads 'Only one person may be voted for execution this week. Please figure out who that will be during the time limit.'

As you finish reading that, music begins to play in the room...


VICTIM: SHIROU EMIYA, HIMEKO INABA, AND MUNEHISA IWAI

23 GUESTS REMAIN.

First I've heard it, but it isn't out of character for her.

[enter_the_darkness]

[ He nods. ]

It's the second time, for me. [ . . . . ] Off topic, but I've been meaning to ask, and might as well.

[ Since, well, either of them could die tomorrow, anyway!!! ]

Do you know what language that means five in?

[purrtagonist]

[. . . ?]

What, Cinquey? It means five?

[enter_the_darkness]

No, just Cinque. Though, you not even knowing that said enough.

[ Shrug! ]

She just said it meant five, but couldn't tell me the language it meant that in.

[purrtagonist]

I have no idea.

[sorry he does not speak Cinque's language]

[dolleyed]

[ From the sidelines: ] It's spelled differently, but the sound is the same in French.

[latebluemer]

... Does it mean five because you're the fifth child, Cinque?

[That seems more in line with Japanese naming conventions, but it's the first thing that came to mind.]

[enter_the_darkness]

[ Oh! There's a hint of appreciation in his eyes just for, like. A fraction of a second, but that's more than literally anyone else has ever gotten from him, so... Congrats, Kohaku!!! ]

French, huh...? Never heard of it.

[ He's glancing to Aoi, and then to Cinque. That is a fair question. ]

[whirlingmace]

I don't think I'm the fifth on though. And Acey is not the first one either.

[latebluemer]

Hmm. Usually, where I come from, when there's numbers in your name -- you're named if you're the first, second or third child.

[Or more, but mostly it's three.]
