Trial 2







WHO KILLED CHRISTMAS?

Four hours pass yet again. Thug Dangerzone and Brasco move all the tables together (with no help from Starshine), and once again the dining room becomes a makeshift trial center. Poor Diana's body is carefully laid out on one of the tables. She's covered by a sheet, because frankly her corpse looks a little nauseating, but she's there if anyone needs to look at her.

On each spot at the table is a some cookies and apple cider, and that basket sits remains cheery and present at the center of the tavle. Next to the food is a pen and a small notebook, like the kind they use on police procedural.

After everyone is seated, or at least standing awkwardly around, Brasco stands up on a chair. "I gotta say, I'm pretty disappointed in you all," he says, and you get the sense he honestly means it. "This is way, way more murders than we wanted here! By a significant margin! But at least justice can be served a little. Me and Princess and Thug were looking around some after you guys finished, and we narrowed it down to five different suspects. So figure it out! You've got all day. Go vote when you're sure, and remember: this isn't a joke. Make sure you get it right. When we've got a majority vote, or when it gets too late, we'll decide.

Ready? Start!"

Going to confirm my alibi?

[That's meant to be a bit more bravado than it comes out.]

I'm just saying I do know a good bit of what you get up to when you're in private. And don't really care who else knows it, so....yeah, don't worry about it.

[It's not like he's been telling anybody, but that's mainly because he's pretty sure Rosalind will cut him off if he does. She's a pretty private lady.]

[But in the interests of not executing her, he'll spill all the detail anyone could want. And more.]
originallutece: would be what they'd call this emotion if i was 12 (happy; delightfully impudent)

[That's an absolutely A+ instinct he has there, bu-ut on the other hand, she's not gonna keep it a secret if it throws blame off her, so.]

I'm charmed.
thedifferencebetween: (the things i'm gonna do to you)

Hey, I'm a gentleman! Relax, you weren't killing anything the other night besides my stamina. You're golden!
